How To Fix The Apple ID Lock Out Because Of Security Reasons Glitch

A strange occurrence is currently unfolding among Apple device owners. It seems that a series of users have been locked out of their Apple IDs in the past hours, without any obvious reason, although the message claims security flaws. Several readers have mailed us about this glitch and reports around the Internet, on websites like Reddit and Twitter, confirm that this isn’t an isolated case. Users state that they are kicked out of their Apple IDs because of security reasons.

Affected users confirmed that the lock out occurs without any warning while they use Apple Music on their iPhone or watch movies on their Apple TV.

This means that there isn’t a solid reason for locking out users out of their Apple IDs because of security reasons, unless there is a security breach on Apple’s side or a bug that’s causing this unpleasant issue.
