Try changing your password.
If that fails then contact itunes support.

My itunes account was disabled for some reason. I changed password in iforgot and still didn't work. I could log in but not make purchases from the store so I set up a new login/account . Is there any way to move my music to the new account?

My itunes account was disabled for some reason. I changed password in iforgot and still didn't work. I could log in and see my music but not make purchases from the store or even redeem an itunes gift card so I set up a new login/account with another email account of mine. On the new account I can redeem my gift card and download items onto my ipad2. Is there any way to move my music to the new account?

Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Console in the icon grid.
Make sure the title of the Console window is All Messages. If it isn't, select All Messages from the SYSTEM LOG QUERIES menu on the left. If you don't see that menu, select
View ▹ Show Log List
from the menu bar.
Click the Clear Display icon in the toolbar. Then try the action that you're having trouble with again. Select any messages that appear in the Console window. Copy them to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. Paste into a reply to this message (command-V).
When posting a log extract, be selective. In most cases, a few dozen lines are more than enough.
Please do not indiscriminately dump thousands of lines from the log into this discussion.

Depending on why it's been disabled you might be able to re-enable it via this page : http://appleid.apple.com, then 'reset your password'
Or you might need to contact Apple : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page
If it then works on your computer's iTunes but not your phone/iPad then try logging out of your account on the phone/iPad by tapping on your id in Settings > Store (Settings > iTunes & App Stores on iOS 6) and then log back in and see if that 'refreshes' the account on it

HT1535 has anyone had issues with syncing music? i can no longer sync any of my music that was already on my itunes to my phone for some reason???

Since this first message, the "Other" space has increased exponentially. The first time, after the "restore", it increased to over 9 GB. Later, I tried a minor restore again, and now it's over 10 GB. I've seen someone suggest that text messages are to blame. If my text messages are suddenly taking up 4 GB of space, I think we've got bigger problems.

ICloud - Your account was disabled for security reasons

For some reason, I cant log into iCloud (or set it up as this is my first time trying to use it) It keeps saying that my account has been disabled for security reasons. It asks me to reset my password at iforgot.apple.com. I went ahead and reset my apple ID password but it still wont let me log into iCloud. I can log into iTunes store and other apple ID things, but iCloud doesnt work, any suggestions here? Im using a iPhone 4S.

Follow the instructions for "iforgot" to reset your account > Apple ID: "This Apple ID has been disabled for security reasons" appears

Received message that iTunes account was disabled without the reason provided

Received message that iTunes account was disabled; specific reason not cited

This was when you trying to download/buy something i.e. it's not a phishing email that you've received ?
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 > iTunes & App Store 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

My iTunes won't open for some reason.

So for some reason my iTunes will not openm, I've clicked the shortcut, gone to the location, opened as a dmin, and still nothing. I've re-installed it plenty times, and still nothing. I have no absolute idea what is wrong. Maybe it's Quicktime or mobileme, but someone please help. I run Windows 7 64bit.

Try following steps one at a time:
1. Check to see if this file APSDaemon.exe is the problem here.
Close your iTunes.
Press Ctrl-Alt-Del key and choose Task Manager. In the "Processes" Tab, select the file APSDaemon.exe and click End Prosses button, then close the task manager window.
Now open itunes and see if it is working?
If that works, to prevent having to do the same process everytime you restart Windows, go to. START button, type in
MSCONFIG
Hit ENTER
Click STARTUP Tab, Uncheck "Apple Push", click OK.
Restart Windows.
2. If you don't see ApsDaemon.exe in the Processes, refer to following article to remove SC files:
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2363
Then, repair your Quicktime. START / CONTROL PANEL / PROGRAMS N FEATURES / hightlight QUICKTIME and click REPAIR.

ITunes won't run for some reason... help me!!!

I installed iTunes on my laptop in December 2005 (I got an iPod nano for Christmas). Recently, my laptop started making a funny clicking noise and, as the Best Buy guy said, "Your hard drive is shot." So, therefore, I have not been able to charge my iPod. I downloaded the updates for iPod on this desktop computer, but for some reason, iTunes wont show up. Do I have to download the software again? How do I get it working?? Please help me!!!
eMachines Windows 2000

for some reason, iTunes wont show up
a few questions before proceeding.
are you getting an error message? if so, what does it say? include error message numbers if you're getting any.
or are you getting no error messages whatsoever when you try to launch itunes?
if you're getting no error messages whatsoever, do you just see the wee hourglass for a few seconds, and then nothing? if so, do you also have Norton Internet Security 2005 installed on that PC?
or are you seeing a brief "flash" of the itunes license screen (and then nothing)? if so, do you also see similar behavior when you try to launch your QuickTime?

My itunes account shuts down for no reason. It wont recognize my iphone and there is an issue with network connectivity and itunes. I have already reinstalled itunes and did a syste restore on my computer, firewall checked and virus scan done. Ideas??

My itunes account on windows xp shuts down for no reason. If even try to delete something from my library it shuts down. It wont recognize my iphone and there is an issue with network connectivity and I can't connect to the store. I have already reinstalled itunes and did a system restore on my computer, firewall has been checked, itunes is ok on firewall and virus scan done. Ideas??

Same problem. I can see the itunes store so not a problem with windows firewall. The account is active on my iphone so i know i am not locked out. I can connect the PC to my iphone so i know itunes is working ok. It is just logging into itunes on this pc which doesn't work. Only thing I can think of is that the email address I use for my apple id has been offline for a while and is working again now, I'm wondering whether this has been the case for others who are having this issue?

Good morning i bought a ipod touch 4th gen on iOS 5.1.1 it was updated on itunes for some reason how do i do a restore to get it back to 5.1.1 thanks

i just bought an ipod touch 4th gen it came with iOS 5.1.1 it was updated to iOS 6.0.1 why cant i restore it to the iOS that it came with?i think buying the ipod i should have the freedom to try an iOS and if we are noot pleased we can go back to the previois one, is there any way that can be done? thanks

No update is ever forced on you. It's always the user's option to accept and install the update or not, which you apparently did. As John said, there is no supported way to go back to an earlier version of iOS, and that's been the case since the first iOS-based device came out these several years ago. If you want to comment to Apple on the issue, you can do so via their feedback page:
http://www.apple.com/feedback/iphone.html
but I don't expect Apple to change, and almost certainly not in the near future. If you search the web, you'll find instructions that may work for downgrading, but you're on your own should any problems arise. For many people it goes without problems, but for some it's reportedly bricked their devices.
Regards.

Every night I have to reset my email password on my iPhone. It says my account is disabled for security reasons.waited 3 days to set up2 step verification. So far I have gotten no where, same old reset?????

I have to constantly reset my iPhone password! Yahoo email and Facebook are always disabled because of security reasons, so it says. I reset it every night, it will be fine until the next night, then I reset it again! I know someone is changing the settings and my profile. They changed my name to Joe Bonamassa { my favorite musician} in my phone contact profile. They also completely removed my daughters phone contact profile! It seems like I am being hacked constantly! I think I know who it is! I did block this person on my phone and the computer, and yet he still leaves phone messages on the voice mail. I am having problems with my home phone also,which I use as a business phone. It is Bright House network, and the voicemail does not always work! Bad for my business! This person has several phones, including his parents cell phone. So far I do not know how to block all his calls on my house phone. He does not call me very much, but he is upset I do not talk to him anymore. It may not be him, but I suspect he is the one, he works on his home computer all night,trading on E-Bay. What do you do about constant hacking? I give up, I will not keep resetting the password. Please help if you can. Thanks!

Why does my iphone keep telling me my apple account was disabled for security reasons?

First it was when trying to sign in to icloud, now its also when signing into App store. I have tried following the prompts for changing my password at iforgot.com three times. It's still telling me my account has been disabled. How do I re-enable it?

You will have to contact iTunes support. Click support at the top of the forums and when the page opens, click on contact us on the bottom left.
