I get a message that says "Your account has been disabled in the App Store and iTunes"

If your account has been disabled in the App Store and iTunes, it isn’t something that you can fix yourself. You will need to contact Apple Support. The following Apple article includes a link that you can use to contact Apple Support: If a message says 'Your account has been disabled in the App Store and iTunes' - Apple Support

This is primarily a user-to-user support forum; other Apple users like you.

I did and I’m still waiting to hear back from them! They said 48 hours so hopefully I will hear something today! I’m worried because I think someone may have tried hacking my account and kept getting the password wrong, which is why it’s blocked.

The Disabled in App Store and iTunes message is usually due to a billing-related issue, not someone getting the password wrong.
