    After doing that have you then tried logging out of your account on your iPad by tapping on your id in Settings > Store (Settings > iTunes & App Stores on iOS 6+) and then logging back in to see if that 'refresh' your account on it ?

    Hi, I have recently had my icloud account from which my 'Find My Iphone' activated. I forgot the password and typed in wrong ones and my icloud account has been disabled. I tried resetting the password but forgot my answers to my security questions. Now I am not able to open my icloud account and also not able to reset my password or even reset my security questions. I dont have a recovery email with this but I have used another email to download applications. This email is not authorized for 'Find my iphone'. What can I do? Pls help...

    If you aren't able to get the account enabled via http://iforgot.apple.com then you will need to contact Support in your country and see if they can enable it for you : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5699 (they can also reset your security questions)

    bert1788, follow these instructions: http://support.apple.com/kb/ts2446

     

    avtarsingh131313, you may be stuck. You're account is disabled and you didn't set security questions or a recovery email. To complicate it, you used multiple Apple IDs. It's like the perfect storm of things you should not do if you want to continue using your iPad if something goes wrong.

     

    I think you're only hope is to call Apple and ask to speak to the Account Security Team. If you can satisfy them with enough information to prove you are who you claim, they may be able to help recover your password.

    I have same problem, after updating all three iPads to current iOS, I continue to get "apple I'd has been disabled". I did log out and in again but it doesn't help. I am still able to user apple I'd on my iPhone and on the apple website so it cannot be a security problem, it is something on the upgraded iPads. Very frustrating that an upgrade means the iPad stops working!

    I Am on an iPod touch 5 and I am having the exact same problem. I can barely even do anything with my Apple ID constantly getting dissabled. Also, I can't use any of my password ideas anymore because they have all been used within this year.

    Please see the above post by Texas. Start a new question with your problem. Do you know why your ID is being disabled? Have you contacted Apple about it?
