Welcome and thank you for reaching out. 🤗


According to Apple:

Check if you’re signed in on your device. Or check if you’re signed in to Apple apps or services


On your iPhone or iPad:

  1. Go to Settings, tap your name, then select Sign-In & Security.
  2. Find the email addresses and phone numbers that you can use to sign in.


Other ways to find your Apple Account:

  • Check if you’re signed in to the App Store, FaceTime* or Messages on your Apple device. 
  • Go to account.apple.com and see if the website remembers your Apple Account email address or phone number on the sign-in screen. 
  • If you’re part of a Family Sharing group, you can ask a family member to check their Family Sharing settings for your Apple Account information. 


*FaceTime isn’t available in all countries or regions.


Check your inbox for emails from Apple:

Your Apple Account primary email address might be included in the body of some emails from Apple. Search your inbox for receipts as well as repair, support or billing emails from Apple.


If your primary email address is masked (j*****@icloud.com), the number of asterisks might not match the number of characters in your email address.


If you need more help, contact Apple Support directly.


Good Luck! 👋🏼😉

Hello,

Your Apple ID or Apple Account is the combination of email and password you use to sign into Apple services and websites including this forum.


Since you signed in here to post, that email and password combination you used is an Apple Account.


If you are looking for a different one, check your different email addresses for emails from Apple. The email addres with emails from Apple is likely your Apple ID's primary email address.

It is the account that is signed into your device at Settings > [name on top].


As for finding an unknown Apple Account, there is no lookup by name that can be used, but there are some suggestions Apple has to help you find what it is, such as emails you have send, messages, or previous Apple site you signed into where the login was saved on your device.
