Hello ipradeepj,
Thank you for the details of the issue you are experiencing with your security questions and Apple ID password. I found an article with some useful information:
What should I do if I don't remember the answers to my Apple ID security questions?
Try answering them at least once to see if you can get them right, even if you are not sure you remember the answers to your security questions.
If you are confident you can't remember them, try one of the following:
If you have three security questions and a rescue email address
sign in to My Apple ID and select the Password and Security tab to send an email to your rescue email address to reset your security questions and answers.
If you have one security question and you know your Apple ID passwordsign in to My Apple ID and select the Password and Security tab to reset your security question.
If you have one security question, but don't remember your Apple ID password
contact Apple Support for assistance. Learn more about creating a temporary support PIN to help Apple confirm your identity when you contact Apple Support.
Note: If you have forgotten your password and answer your security questions incorrectly too many times in a row, you will be unable to try to answer your security questions for a period of time. During that time you will not be able to reset your password and will not have access to your account.

If you continue to have issues, please contact our Account Security Team as outlined in this article:

How can I permanently reset my iCloud account that is disabled every day "due to security reasons"? I've followed all the steps on https://iforgot.apple.com/ however there is nothing on there that indicates what to do if this happens every day. I've tried unlocking as well as resetting and neither does anything except unlock my devices for the day. I use a macbook pro & iphone and have to do this every time I wish to use anything icloud related.
You could try calling the Apple account security team to see if they can explain why your account keeps getting locked: Apple ID: Contacting Apple for help with Apple ID account security. The call should be free (be sure to ask for the account security team), but you will need to provide your serial number (from Settings>General>About).

Can't delete items in "Send" folder when iCloud account disabled.
I'm trying to simplify my email by using gmail as my one account through which all e-mails are directed.
I am using Apple Mail, latest version.
I've managed to find out how to do almost everything, so that all e-mails come in through my gmail account, and I can send using multiple accounts.
But, when I try to disable my iCloud account, I can no longer delete e-mails in the "Sent" box, even if the sent items were from my other accounts. I click on 'delete', and all that happens is that the email header changes to grey. If I 'right-click", then I have the option to 'undelete', which turns the header back to black.
If I re-enable iCloud, then I can delete the e-mails, but once I disable iCloud email, then the most recently deleted sent items are back again.
The other thing I notice is that when iCloud is disabled, there is no 'Trash' folder in my email programe.
Any ideas?
Thank you.No, the only workaround is to remove all icons using a terminal command and to re-add all that you want by dragging them onto LaunchPad.

ICloud account disabled after not connected to wifi for 3-4hrs iOS 7.0.2
This has happened in the last 2-3days that I have noticed, everything is ok after i get to work and i've been there for a few hrs about 3-4. When I go take my break, my notes have litterly dissapeared, like all my notes from Dec 2011 till now have gone, i can't create an event from my notes, I go to Calender and my + sign has been disabled, I go to Settings, iCloud, and all the options for my account has been litterly been disabled, no one has touched it, not even accidental touch within my pocket, even with photo sharing, those 2 options to enable & disable, they were too disabled, even my backup iCloud has disbled, even my Find My iPhone has disabled.
Is there a Glitch withn iOs 7.0.2? There is no way that my pockect would have ever done this, not even to get passed my lock screen, there is nothing in my pocket except for regular cloths fuzz, so how is this possible? Anyone else havn this problem?
And I wouldn't touch my iPod during work hrs bc I work with SeaFood, I cut, pick up fresh fish, Shrimp, even cooked live lobster, and ice lobster legs, so how is this even possible?Checked my icloud for the past few days since that day and it been fine until yesterday and today that my iOS 7.0.2 it playing with my settings besides the drop loging out of facebook, viggle, email, but i went to my icloud settings, and 'Find My iPhone' got turned off, i went back to the settings dashview and back into iCloud and went back to on, but that was yesterday, hrs later of yesterday, it is still on.
Today, it is completely off but my restrictions is still set to keep that on and not let it change, guess what, it is off and i had to go to Resrtictions>Locations Services and the Find My iPhone said Off, the Status Bar Icon is still on. I go back and changed it to Allow Changes so I can switch it back On
but this time i wasnt at work and was at home, due to later posting this, had to go out with my brother and buy cat food, went to taco bell, then to work
Even thou this is'nt proof bc simply anyone can turn it off and reapply and me waisting this whole time but this really is happening to me, no one touches my iPod except me and im not turning it off either, just wish it stops. -

Account disabled and I can't get it to work
Help! Account disabled! Changed password, will let me sign in to apple I'd and can change billing info,password and everything but still get message that my "apple ID is disabled"when downloading.
The latest Apple driver support begins with the MP 171.
Here is Ricoh's official driver download page specifically for the Afico MP 161. Note that new drivers for this device were released on Aug 2, and include Lion and Mountain Lion.
Hopefully, this will solve your device issues. -

I keep trying to reset an icloud account that is disabled because I forgot the password but is not able too. I tried changing it but there seem to be some mix up in the icloud ID and the gmail email address. HELP PLEASE!!
Your password was sent to your emergency email address. Perhaps you have an email you never use? I use the free email from my cable TV account as my emergency email.
Your Apple account and cloud account are separate. You could even have completely different user and password. Most of us use the same user ID and password, but they are not the same thing, don't mix them up.
If you can't retrieve emergency email, you will have to call apple support.

After i wrote the wrong password for a few times my icloud account got disabled even after reseting my password.help
Hi and Welcome to the Community!
Failure of the BBID credentials will never wipe a BB. What actually happened was you incorrectly entered your user-created device-lock password too many times, and it then proceeded with wiping the device, as per the requirements of the security level accepted when enabling that feature. There is no way to stop it.
Sorry.
