Why the Error? Things probably became misconfigured somehow.
Why Accounts Become Disabled:
When your Apple Account has been disabled, that often happens due to suspicious activity --- Perhaps nothing on your part. They disable it for no more than Security & Privacy concerns.
Possible Reasons Could Include:
- Too many unsuccessful login attempts
- VPN (Virtual Private Network) usage
- Consistent transactions
- Session Times Out
- Disobeying Terms & Conditions
When "your account has been disabled in the App Store and iTunes," there is an issue with the payment method.
In this case, I recommend contacting Apple Support for help from an Apple advisor.
