Your account has been disabled in the app store and Itunes

I’m trying to update Whatsapp but when I try it takes me to a screen that says “Your account has been disabled in the app store and Itunes”. How do I fix this? Do I need to change my iTunes account, and if so, how do I do it?

iPhone 8 Plus

If you see this message: If a message says 'Your account has been disabled in the App Store and iTunes' - Apple Support *, or one saying, “You cannot login because your account has been locked”, you must contact Apple for help. This is not something you can fix yourself and nobody on this forum can resolve this for you.

or for telephone contacts refer to: Contact Apple for support and service - Apple Support


Use the above resources to contact Apple instead of starting at the top level general support link at Contact - Official Apple Support . The special contact link I provided is the most direct contact method to get to the right people at Apple. I am saving you the trouble and time looking for it. 😉


* I am surprised nobody posted a link to this document which tells you exactly how to contact Apple.
