What exactly do the messages say? Make sure you are going the reset procedure correctly. This Apple article has instructions for what to do if you have forgotten your Apple account password, or the system does not recognize the one you remember —> If you forgot your password and can’t sign in to your Apple Account - Apple Support or go directly to this web reset link —> https://iforgot.apple.com/ (“The reset process on the web might take a little longer. If you’ll have access to one of your trusted devices soon, it might be faster and easier to reset your password at that time.”)


Re:"iCloud password: I have been trying to reset my iCloud password"


Your Apple Account is the one account you use to access Apple services like the App Store, Apple Music, iCloud, iMessage, FaceTime, and more.

It includes the email address and password you use to sign in as well as the contact, payment, and security details you use across Apple services.
