If an AppleID or the associated password have been forgotten, they can be recovered here:

https://iforgot.apple.com


To recover your credentials, you’ll need access to one of the following:

  • The primary email address mailbox that corresponds with the AppleID
  • Any of the secondary/recovery email addresses that should be configured for the AppleID account
  • Any of the trusted telephone numbers (fixed line or Cellular/Mobile) that are associated with the AppleID


Unless the AppleID account has not been fully/correctly configured, or has been seriously neglected, recovery of the AppleID and password should not be difficult by the owner.


More information about recovery of an AppleID:

If you forgot your Apple ID - Apple Support

After recovering access to account credentials, the owner would be well advised to log-in to their AppleID account from a web browser - and verify/update any email addresses and trusted telephone numbers:
