How can I aCcess my icloud email when I cannot remember password

It could be your using your email password instead of your Apple password. They could be different. If you have a computer, go to iCloud.com on the internet and try to sign in the email address and password you use for your Apple ID. If it doesn't work, your password or Apple I'd is incorrect. You might try and select forgot password on the iCloud screen and correct it.

Sounds like your trying to create a new account rather than login with an existing Apple ID? If you look in the iCloud settings do both devices have the same account there? If not log out of icloud on the one which has the incorrect account and login with the email and password used for icloud on the device configured correctly.

Your apple ID is normally your email and use the FORGOT PASSWORD line they will send a reset to your backup number or email address

It is paper weight if you do not no the iCloud details meaning no good

the email is your username that is attached to the password if you have updated your accounts to a new email your icloud access should work if you didnt then notify provider for assistance

If you've tied your iPad to the iCloud account and have forgotten about that account password go to iCloud.com and click on "I forgot my Apple-ID or Password". Follow their instructions to re-activate your account. If you can't answer the questions (you defined) or have no access to the email-account assigned anymore it might get difficult.
