Hello Foursix,


Welcome to Apple Support Communities!

If we understand your post correctly, your Apple ID account has been locked. We'd like to help!


If you or someone else enters your password or other account information incorrectly too many times, learn how to regain access to your account. 
If your account has been disabled for security reasons
If you see one of the following messages, your Apple ID automatically locked to protect your security and you can't sign in to any Apple services:
“This Apple ID has been disabled for security reasons”
"You can't sign in because your account was disabled for security reasons"
"This Apple ID has been locked for security reasons"
You need to reset your password to regain access. Learn how to reset your password

If your Apple ID is locked or disabled


Let us know if you have any questions.

Take care!
