Perhaps the article which appears above your inquiry, has a few

potential pathways to try & use, to resolve issues faced now?


If your Apple ID is locked or disabled - Apple Support

//support.apple.com/en-us/HT204106


This article seems to include three(?) possible things, to try..

And these section looks to include your inquiry, if no other:

•If your account has been disabled for security reasons

"..If you see one of the following messages, your AppleID automatically

locked to protect your security & 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 you forgot your Apple ID password - Apple Support

seeing now similar items listed in above!]
