Can you give us more details? Apple ID is now called Apple Account.


In case this is about the forgotten Apple Account Email address you have used, try these steps:

On your iPhone, open Settings -> Your Name -> Sign in & Security -> have a look at all the registered Email and phone numbers.


Your Primary Email address is also shown beneath your name in Settings -> Your Name -> Apple Account.



If you have forgotten your Apple Account password, your can reset it by following the steps in this article, or having a look at this Apple Support video:

By "not taking" I am assuming you mean you have forgotten the ID. Typically an Apple ID is an email address you have used. If you are currently using a mobile device that is logged into your account, go to Settings and tap your name at the top.


Look in the Passwords application (or Keychain), and in a browser's security settings if you use it to automatically sign into Apple when using a browser.
