Contact Apple Support.


Unlocking Your Locked Apple Account:

It is the Apple Account that is locked --not your iCloud eMails. So, get the Apple Account unlocked, being that it has become locked. So, being that is the case, here is the information to use:


See if this Helps: If your Apple ID is Locked or Disabled - Apple Support


If that is of no success, then give Apple a Direct Call:

As you might suspect, no one here would know the reason for the occurrence, of course. So, contact Apple. They’ll know why this occurred and will run you right through how to fix.

Contacting Apple:

  • Contact Us - Choose Locations
  • Proceed from there as necessary
  • Note: Phone calls are taking a bit to go through at the moment, due do lots of calls. With the Coronavirus Pandemic, many are at home at the moment, with much time on their hands to contact Apple. So, just stay on the line, and you will get through :)


For Note:

There are quite a few reasons as to why this may have occurred. Some possible reasons include:

  • Too many unsuccessful login attempts
  • VPN (Virtual Private Network) usage
  • Disobeying Terms & Conditions
  • Consistent transactions
  • Session Times Out
