Apple’s Worldwide Developers Conference to kick off June 10 at 10 a.m. PDT with Keynote address

The Keynote will be available to stream on apple.com, the Apple Developer app, the Apple TV app, and the Apple YouTube channel. On-demand playback will be available after the conclusion of the stream.

Looks like no one’s replied in a while. To start the conversation again, simply ask a new question.

My apple id has been locked without any reason, tried to reset it but no luck

So long story short, it's been locked for a few days and I've managed to reset the password multiple times on my only PC but still it says it's locked when trying to use.


Any help will be appreciated

iPhone 11, iOS 14
