How to temporarily deactivate your Apple ID

Sign in with your Apple ID at privacy.apple.com on a Mac, PC, iPhone or iPad, and select "Request to deactivate your account". If you can’t see this option, it means that this feature is not available in your country or region. 

When you request to deactivate your account, you receive a unique alphanumeric access code. Make sure that you keep this access code in a safe place – you must have it to reactivate your account. 

After we verify that you are the account holder making the request, we deactivate your account.

When you're ready to reactivate your Apple ID, contact Apple Support, provide your access code and we’ll help you reactivate your account. If you lose this code, we won't be able to help reactivate your account.

Having an "inactive" account is not the same as having a disabled account so you do not need to try anything for disabled accounts or activation locked devices. To cut to the chase, this is what you need to do according to Apple Community Specialist Brittany1416 in thread Inactive Apple ID - Apple Community ,


"Please contact Apple Support for help with an "inactive" Apple ID.


You can reach Apple Support using this link --> Contact - Official Apple Support


or by telephone at one of the numbers in this support article --> Contact Apple for support and service - Apple Support
