Apple ID Locked After .ipa Installation – Need Help Contacting Support
Hello. I am from El Salvador. I have an iPad 4 (Wi-Fi model), and my Apple account got locked after I tried to install a Chrome .ipa file on it. Now I can't unlock it using the regular recovery methods, because every time I try, I get a message saying: "This account is locked."
In an attempt to fix the issue on my own, I decided to use the first method that is restore my iPad to factory settings. However, after the restoration process completed, the device asked me to activate it using the last Apple ID that was previously signed in which unfortunately is the same account that is now locked. As a result, I am completely unable to access the iPad or get past the activation screen.
I would really appreciate any guidance on how to contact Apple Support, preferably via live chat or any other method that might work, so they can help me with this issue. I've already tried everything I could on my side, but nothing has worked. I'm using this temporary account to report my problem in the community.
Thank you in advance for your help.
iPad, iOS 10
