try this

((ApplicationBarIconButton) ApplicationBar.Buttons[0]).IsEnabled = false; // disables Profile_Button button

//disable all buttons and menu item in from app bar

  foreach (var button in ApplicationBar.Buttons)
       {
           ((ApplicationBarIconButton) button).IsEnabled = false;
       }

       //To prevent the menu from opening you have to use this code:
       ApplicationBar.IsMenuEnabled = false;
