How to reset your iPhone if you have icloud enabled and forgotten the password to your icloud?

So I want to reset my iPhone but I have iCloud enabled in which I have forgotten the password for the iCloud. I had 2 options, to reset my password by email which I can't because I can't log into my current iCloud email so how do I even receive an email? The other option was to answer my security question which I have also forgotten.

Download iTunes on your laptop or computer, and plug your iPhone USB on the USB place and it should come up on iTunes and there would be 2 buttons that say Restore iPhone, and another that says Update, you can restore or update.

If you have Find My Phone and activation lock turned on, there isn't any way to reset the phone without the password.

You could do it with iTunes and if you need some advanced security, Leo Privacy would be the best.

  • Old iphone Icloud lock still enabled after I buy a new iPhone with icloud on it? If I had my iPhone stolen with icloud lock on and I was tracking it. But I buy a new one and activate the icloud and tracker, does that mean the old iPhone is unlocked? What happens to it? Will I be notified if someone turns it on? Can I track it?
