"Your apple id has been disabled"

i believe it has to do with password strength. Change your password and it should be ok

i thinnk i found a way to solve it, it worked for me.

go sign out of your apple id, and sign back in. make sure if you usually use a @me email use it. I used me and it signed into aol, which doesn't exist. So just try this

I did that as well. I even opted to create a new Apple ID. But because my apps were installed under the disabled Apple ID, I still have to enter the password to that account. I've changed the password to the disabled account 4 times with no results. I emailed Apple's support team and haven't received a response yet.

All apps (and any other content downloaded from the iTunes stores) will remain tied to the account that downloaded them. If it's been more than 48 hours since you contacted iTunes Support (and you've checked the spam folder as well as the inbox on your email account) then try contacting them again.

Thank you so much. I logged out of iTunes on my phone under settings and put the new password in and it worked. THANKS YOUUUUUU

This is the issue I am having. I can log on to Itunes through my laptop, but not my phone. I have reset the password 6 times and nothing is working.

What happens when you try to log in - and you are trying to log in from a logged-out state, you aren't already logged in and, for example, just typing in your password to download something or view your account ?

Same here. I emailed tech support stating I couldn't make purchases. One of them replied me saying they fixed things on their end so it should work now. I tried again and it didn't work so I emailed them again. a supervisor responded to my email saying my account has been disabled by Apple without stating any reasons, they just gave me a link to the terms and conditions of iTunes ... I emailed them again asking why my account is disabled and I'm still waiting for a reply...... This is frustrating ......

Thank God I found this post!!! I've been having this problem for a week and called Apple Support for a couple of times spending hours and hours on it, calling back and forth! It's all about calling the right person! Instead of being transferred to Apple ID advisors, you need to go to iTunes Billing & Account, they can reenable your account in a couple of minutes!

Thanks again!

I disputed a charge as well. Somebody got something on iTunes. I changed my password, logged out and back in, no luck yet. Still says Apple ID is disabled. I appreciate the phone number. Guess I'm gonna have to call.

Why is my Apple ID disabled? I did change my password but I already tried logging in and out of my acount. I also tried to reset my iPad but I forgot my restrictions passcode. I did remove my account from my lost iPhone app included and it did something. I even backed up my iPad but now this message keeps popping up saying "your Apple ID has been disabled" Now all of my apps are like when there downloading except now they are without the loading circle.can someone help me? My Problems are that I forgot my restrictions passcode and how to start downloading and updating apps again.

I'm a fellow user, I have no idea why your account is disabled.

You've tried : If your Apple ID is locked - Apple Support ?

If that doesn't work then contact iTunes Support : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/

For the restrictions passcode, was it in place on the device when you last backed up ? If not then you can restore to that backup and it should be removed. If it was on the device when you last backed up then you will need to reset the device back to factory defaults to remove the code, and you can then re-sync your content back to it - you may need to use recovery mode, there are instructions on this page : https://support.apple.com/en-gb/HT201263)

I'm having the same problem Nicole4405

My name:- Romeo
Position:- Programmer
Do i Hack:- lol

Ok here is how i fixed mine:-

Story: - i declined some of the purchases (168$ in 5 minutes ) which went thru without my knowledge. I contacted my bank and stopped my credit card. After 15/20 days alter, today, i saw this error on my phone when i tried to update an app "Your Apple id has been disabled". you need to NOTE that it is not saying For security purposes.

Approaches:- i have tried to reset my password logged in and tried again to update the app i already had in my phone and the error popped up again "Your Apple id has been disabled". ERRRR. Then I tried to log out from all devices i was logged in, signed in again and the same error popped up. i know it is crazy right. everything seems crazy until u know it is not 🙂

Solution:- The last option i had was to call Apple which i hate a lot calling for support especially when you know what's going on and the person in the other end of the line doesn't know any clue about it. But that was not my last option. my last option was to change anoother Apple ID. Owwww that was easy. lol ya it is but i tried my slim chance to revive my old one. here is what i did...
1) Go to Setting

2) Go to iTunes & App Store

3) Clicked on the Apple ID and selected the Signed out ooption

4) I signed in again

( now it asks me to put all my information before i started to purchase ) ... this means i had to put a valid credit card info on all required fields which i did

5) i went to app store to see if that fixed it. here it came the surprise with full of smiley face...................It worked. I can download and update my apps again.

This is the fix i did for the error "Your Apple id has been disabled".....Enjoy... i hope it will fix yours too. let me know .... 😉

Pls help me i already changed my Apple ID password but still. Your Apple ID has been disable
