My iTunes Account Is Locked, How Can I Unlock It?

I was going to rent a film from the iTunes store, and I was doing this on a new computer so I had to enter my Security Questions. It kept saying I was putting in the wrong answers, and then my account was locked. How can I unlock it?

Try resetting the Password.

    If You Are Locked Out Or Have Forgotten Your Passcode
    iTunes 10 for Mac- Update and restore software on iPod, iPhone, or iPad
    iPhone, iPad, iPod touch: Wrong passcode results in red disabled screen
    iOS- Understanding passcodes
    A Complete Guide to Recover Your iDevice if You Forget Your Passcode
    If you cannot remember the passcode, you will need to restore your device using the computer with which you last synced it. This allows you to reset your passcode and resync the data from the device (or restore from a backup). If you restore on a different computer that was never synced with the device, you will be able to unlock the device for use and remove the passcode, but your data will not be present. Refer to Updating and restoring iPhone, iPad and iPod touch software.
    Try restoring the iOS device if backing up and erasing all content and settings doesn't resolve the issue. Using iTunes to restore iOS devices is part of standard isolation troubleshooting. Restoring your device will delete all data and content, including songs, videos, contacts, photos, and calendar information, and will restore all settings to their factory condition.
    Before restoring your iOS device, Apple recommends that you either sync with iTunes to transfer any purchases you have made, or back up new data (data acquired after your last sync). If you have movie rentals on the device, see iTunes Store movie rental usage rights in the United States before restoring.
    Follow these steps to restore your device:
         1. Verify that you are using the latest version of iTunes before attempting to update.
         2. Connect your device to your computer.
         3. Select your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch when it appears in iTunes under Devices.
         4. Select the Summary tab.
         5. Select the Restore option.
         6. When prompted to back up your settings before restoring, select the Back Up
             option (see in the image below). If you have just backed up the device, it is not
             necessary to create another.
         7. Select the Restore option when iTunes prompts you (as long as you've backed up,
             you should not have to worry about restoring your iOS device).
         8. When the restore process has completed, the device restarts and displays the Apple
             logo while starting up:
               After a restore, the iOS device displays the "Connect to iTunes" screen. For updating
              to iOS 5 or later, follow the steps in the iOS Setup Assistant. For earlier versions of
              iOS, keep your device connected until the "Connect to iTunes" screen goes away or
              you see "iPhone is activated."
         9. The final step is to restore your device from a previous backup.
    If you can not restore your device then you will need to go to recovery mode.
    Placing your device into recovery mode:
    Follow these steps to place your iOS device into recovery mode. If your iOS device is already in recovery mode, you can proceed immediately to step 6.
         1. Disconnect the USB cable from the iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch, but leave the other end
             of the cable connected to your computer's USB port.
         2. Turn off the device: Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the
             red slider appears, then slide the slider. Wait for the device to turn off.
              If you cannot turn off the device using the slider, press and hold the Sleep/Wake
              and Home buttons at the same time. When the device turns off, release the Sleep/Wake
              and Home buttons.
         3. While pressing and holding the Home button, reconnect the USB cable to the device.
             The device should turn on. Note: If you see the screen pictured below, let the device
             charge for at least ten minutes to ensure that the battery has some charge, and then
             start with step 2 again.
         4. Continue holding the Home button until you see the "Connect to iTunes" screen.
             When this screen appears you can release the Home button.
         5. If necessary, open iTunes. You should see the following "recovery mode" alert:
         6. Use iTunes to restore the device.
    If you don't see the "Connect to iTunes" screen, try these steps again. If you see the "Connect to iTunes" screen but the device does not appear in iTunes, see this article and its related links.
    Additional Information:
    Note: When using recovery mode, you can only restore the device. All user content on the device will be erased, but if you had previously synced with iTunes on this computer, you can restore from a previous backup. See this article for more information.

    If you mean that the iPhone has Activation Lock - that is, it's asking for the previous owner's Apple ID and password to activate the device - then you will need that information, or you'll need to get the previous owner to remove the device from his/her iCloud account:

    If you can't reach the previous owner or he/she is unwilling to cooperate, then the device is unusable by you. Return the iPhone for a refund if you can.
    Regards.

    ICloud sent me an email confirming that my mac desktop computer was locked, how can i unlock it

    It would be useful to know how it happened once things get back to normal, because they will.
    Have you tried an adminstrator password?  If you have alllowed it to it will let you in through your Apple ID (Preferences Users and Groups).
    Booting up from a recovery disk will allow you to get in...I think.
    I once had a situation where I was asked for a pw which did not exist and I pressed "enter" and it worked.

    hi i have a iphone come from japanese i cant use in belgium because its locked how can i unlocked?

    Did you sign up for a cellular service plan when you purchased the iPhone?
    You'll probably have to contact the carrier.
    Take a look at this Apple doc for all the details -> iPhone: About unlocking

  • I got a iphone4 as a gift frm canada but the phone was locked, how can i unlock my iphone4 im in srilanka

    i got an telus apple iphone4 as a gift frm canada, but the phone was lock i want 2 know how can i unlock my iphone becouse im in srilana. please help me in this regard thank you

    I think you're out of luck. Telus, AFAIK, does not offer unlocking for the iPhone, but contact them to verify such. If they tell you no, you might as well return it and get your money back, if within the 30 day return window.

  • HT201328 my iphone when i was updated then it's locking how can i unlock

    Dear Sir/Madam    
    when i was update my i phone there is no detcted sim card 
    where raised the problem
    now iam using iphone 3gs iOS 6.1.3
    then how can i unlock iphone pls do need full

    When you updated your phone it locked to the orginal carrier.  My guess is the phon ewas hacked to unlock it and now you have updated it has locked it again.  You need a sim from the orginal carrier to activate the phone and then if you wan to use it with a different carrier you have the orginal carrier unlock it for you

  • Our family originally shared an iTunes account... how can we separate it?

    When iTunes first came out, I was the first one to get an iPod, so the iTunes account was under my email address, but my dad's name, credit card information, etc. The entire rest of my family used the account as well, on different computers. Right now, I would like to use my own iTunes account, and have them set up their own, so that everything is less confusing and mixed up. For example, my sister sometimes downloads songs and they randomly appear in my iTunes library, other people use my iTunes giftcards, and when I want to buy a song it charges to my father's credit card instead of mine. Even more confusing is that my mom's computer was deauthorized when my sister got her new laptop for college, even though she still has songs in her library.
    We each have our own respective music in our own libraries, but it's still the same account. First, is it possible to consolidate everything, just so we know which songs we have purchased in totality? Second, is it possible to have the songs that my other family members have purchased go into their new accounts? I think you might be able to do it by burning CDs, but this would take forever...
    Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated, and if my query wasn't completely clear questions as well. I would really like to figure this out before I go to college too!

  • HT1491 I have downloaded a ring tone to my Itunes account on my laptop and it under "My Music" on my Itunes account...how can I get it onto my ohone as a ring tone?  I have an IPhone 4S?

    I have an IPhone 4S and I downloaded a ring tone for it onto my lap top through ITunes.  When I "Sync" ITunes to my IPhone 4 S...the ring tone is transferred as music and I can't get it to be recognized as a ring tone.
    How can I make this a ring tone for my phone?
    Ed Szygenda

    You would have to create the ringtone.  Google will find several ways to do this.
    You can only buy ready made ringtones from the ringtones asections of the itunes store on your iphone.
