This Apple ID has been disabled for security reasons

When I try to log in to my iTunes store account i get the following message:
*This Apple ID has been disabled for security reasons*
I've waited a while and tried again (as in a week or longer), and the account is still disabled.
Can anyone tell me how to get the ID enabled again, since as of now I'm unable to buy / download any content from the store. Which makes my iPhone a sad phone
My assumption is the problem is i have a rather desirable account name: i am constantly receiving notifications of failed logins to my account, presumably by scripts trying to hack it. But i have a secure password, so no problem. But perhaps this has led to the account being deactivated?
Any help / or reactivating the account would be great.

"This Apple ID has been disabled for security reasons" Every few weeks

I have had an iTunes account for years with no issue. Lately, I have been receiving the dreaded "This Apple ID has been disabled for security reasons" message every few weeks on my iPad 2(currenly, my only iOS device). I go through the process of reauthorizing my password and info and it works again for a while, then happens again some time later. It's getting annoying. I'm not sure what's changed. Only two computers are authorized to use my account and I am the only one who can log into either of them. No one knows my info and I live alone.
The only thing I can think is that it's a bot spamming my e-mail address and passwords in an attempt to hack my account. If that's the case, am I really going to have to go through this every few weeks just to use my iPad? Don't get me started on how stupid it is to have to type in your password to update existing apps. And that's usually when I find out, not when I actually purchase one.
Is anyone else having this issue? I'm wondering if it's more widespread. Some time ago, a chinese app was mysteriously purchased on my account. Apple refunded the purchase and reset my password. That was about the time that all of this started. The reviews on the app left no doubt that it was happening to numerous people and I have no idea how they would have forced a purchase on so many user accounts.

PLEEEEEEEASE, please, please fix this!!
Everyone should keep a few things in mind:
This is an occasional problem affecting a vanishingly small percentage of the installed base. Look at the numbers of actual instances in just this thread, look at the gaps in time, etc.
Many many more ... me for example ... have never seen it at all. That doesn't mean it's not an irritation for those afflicted, but it does mean that it's not something likely to be seen as a critical issue affecting the whole base.
You aren't talking to Apple here in these user-to-user forums, at all, for any reason. This sort of communication is handled through their established Feedback links. If you can suggest a better way for them to handle things then make your thoughts and feelings known at —

HT201209 Cannot redeem code because this apple id has been disabled

How do you re-enable your Apple ID. My Apple ID was disabled unbeknownced to me.I first realized when trying to redeem a gift card via itunes on my mac - recieving the "This Apple ID has been disabled, cannot redeem this gift card code"

You might be able to re-enable it via this page : http://appleid.apple.com, then 'reset your password'
You might then need to log out of your account on any iOS devices that you have by tapping on your id in Settings > Store (Settings > iTunes & App Store on iOS 6+) and then log back in so as to 'refresh' the account on them
If that doesn't fix it then you might need to contact iTunes Support : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page

TS2446 This Apple ID has been disabled (for no reason given)?

Due to the message "Your Apple ID has been disabled." on my daughter's iPad she can no longer update her apps. Apparently the status process will not even recognize a password change for the existing account or the use of another account (or different email address) since the process persists with the already existing account. I've tried changing the payment information, password, and account. There is nothing provided at the Apple support web site to assist with resolving this problem which I suspect is over money for an app upgrade that was rescinded because initially I did not recognize the charge. I'd gladly now pay but how?

...... which I suspect is over money for an app upgrade that was rescinded because initially I did not recognize the charge.
Bingo!
The usual reasons for disabling an account are violation of the Terms of Use, or suspected fraud or misuse on the account.
As Gnome suggests, contact them and get it corrected.

Welcome to the Apple Community.
I have asked for your email address to be edited out. Posting your address in an open thread is a sure way to be bombarded by unwanted email, remember it will be here long after you have resolved your problem, for automated detection software to find.
If you want people to contact you, enable others to see your email address in your profile.
When your account becomes disabled, Apple provides the following recommendation:
"This message means that someone tried and failed to sign in to your account multiple times. The Apple ID system disables the account to prevent unauthorized people from gaining access to your information. You need to reset your password, following the instructions at the Apple ID website".
Visit iForgot.com and follow the instructions there.
In order to change your Apple ID or password for your iCloud account on your iOS device, you need to delete the account from your iOS device first, then add it back using your updated details. (Settings > iCloud, scroll down and hit "Delete Account")
Providing you are simply updating your existing details and not changing to another account, when you delete your account, all the data that is synced with iCloud will also be deleted from the device (but not from iCloud), but will be synced back to your device when you login again.
In order to change your Apple ID or password for your iCloud account on your computer, you need to sign out of the account from your computer first, then sign back in using your updated details. (System Preferences > iCloud, click the sign out button)
In order to change your Apple ID or password for your iTunes account on your iOS device, you need to sign out from your iOS device first, then sign back in using your updated details. (Settings > store, scroll down and tap your ID)
If that doesn't help you might try contacting Apple through iTunes Store Support

"This Apple ID has been disabled for security reasons. Tap Reset to reset your account"

This message appeared several months ago when I attempted to update an app on my iPhone 4, I attempted to reset my password, however, it is telling me that I am answering the security questions incurrectly and when I click the option to reset the password by email it never sends me an email. Please do not give me the link to https://iforgot.apple.com/ following those instructions DOES NOT WORK. I have emailed Apple five times describing the situation and telling them that following the instructions on iforgot.apple.com does not help but everytime they send me an email back after several days telling me to go to iforgot.apple.com and follow the steps. I had to use my brother's itunes account just to post this. I searched all over the other threads but I did not find anything of any use, others have complained of the same problem but have not received any helpful advice. Please help me, this has been dragged out over several months and I need to download software on my Macbook Pro for work but cannot do so until I have access to my account again. Also I cannot update any apps on my phone, my wife is experiencing the same problem but on different devices so it is not something wrong with my phone and Macbook. I am incredibly disapointed in the customer service Apple has provided and if the problem is not resolved soon I will have to switch to another company, I love Apple products but I need to be able to update and download software. Thank you for any help you can give me!

I have (sorry forgot to add that). I was switched around and finally I was told I would be put through to a supervisor but after being on hold for about 10 minutes the phone went dead, I did not lose connection so I do not know if I was hung up on or there was some technical difficulty. I called again yesterday and did in fact speak with a supervisor for Account Security but he told me he did not know why it was happening and put me through to a different number but that ended up not being any helpful either. That's when I decided to give it a shot on here!

i've already follow the instruction for reset password and etc. but i still cant upgrade or purchase in my app store..

Every time I try to login with my Apple ID (on iTunes, App Store, ...), I obtain the message "This Apple ID has been disabled for security reasons". How can I resolve?

The problem is described in the question.

I reset the Apple ID and I change the password EVERY TIME I've to log in with my Apple ID.
I try to login, the message appears, I change the password and then I can log in.
But the next time (maybe the next day) I've to repeat the process.
Why?

When trying to update my IPad apps I am getting the message "Your Apple ID has been disabled". Still have more than 50$ in my account, so what does this mean ? What can I do to get my ID enabled again ?

when I am trying to download IPad updates I get the message "Your Apple ID has been disabled". What does this mean? How do I get my ID enabled again? Still got more than 50$ in my account !
