Unable to sign in with my apple ID

I have been trying to sign in with my Apple ID and password.
I am taken to review the account, which means clicking through a splash, agreeing to some T & C's, and then a screen to add info like year of birth.
When I try to submit the final screen there, I see the message "An Error Occurred" and I am unable to progress. I have tried this a few times - and I'd really like to start buying films with it.
Any ideas or help?

Ah! I've got it - and this is a bit silly. I closed down iTunes completely. Restarted, and tried the sign in again. This time also taking it slowly between each one.
I am now past that screen in the review process and have completed the setup.
So - if you get stuck with this - close down iTunes completely, open it, and try it again. I thoroughly recommend leaving it for 10 minutes too.

  • Unable to Sign In with new Apple ID without a Credit Card

    Hi, I recently created a new Apple ID, but when I try to sign in with it in iTunes on my PC, it says I need to Review my account info, which then tells me to enter my credit card information. I do NOT have a credit card, and am unable to sign into my new Apple ID. Is there any way to fix this??

    Yes there is. All you have to do is buy an iTunes gift card and enter the code when it shows credit card information type your code and pick none on the credit card type.

    The Early 2011 MacBook Pro shipped with Snow Leopard, so these are not the Mac App Store versions of iLife, they are the boxed software versions.
    If they are in an iWork '09 folder take them out and let them loose in the Apps folder. Then reindex your HDD.

  • HT204053 I downloaded icloud, and when i try to sign in with my Apple ID, I keep getting a prompt saying that my ID is valid but not an icloud account. So I'm unable to finish registering, how do I register if I can't sign in?

    I downloaded icloud because some of my music files got deleted, and I was hoping to be able to re-download them if I installed icload.Supposedly you can use your Apple ID to sign. Now when I try to sign in with my Apple ID, I keep getting a prompt saying that my ID is valid but not an icloud account. So how do I register if I can't sign in?

    You can't create an iCloud account on your PC.  You have to first create an iCloud account on an iOS device (iPhone, iPad, iPod Touch) or Mac (running OS X Lion or higher).  After creating the account on one of these devices you can use the ID to sign into the account on your PC.

  • Messages Beta won't sign in with my apple ID

    When i click sign in with my apple ID all i get is the loading wheel. i left it to watch a movie and when i came back it was still going.
    Facetime for mac dose the same thing as well.
    Any one know whats wrong or how to fix it ?

    The AppleID account system operates a bit differently now.
    When iCloud went into effect, Apple was encouraging people to unify multiple accounts and account types. Many people did, and some didn't (or the other way around.) There are security reasons why you may not want to.
    Accounts can now have associated e-Mail addresses. And these e-Mail addresses can be verified (for better security) or not.
    Messages ∫Beta requires that an e-Mail address be associated with the Apple ID you want to use.
    So, I'll bet that you actually have more than one Apple ID. And I'll bet that the e-Mail address you prefer is associated with another other ID or that you have no e-Mail address available on that Apple ID account.
    When you enter your Apple ID in Messages, and the gear is spinning it means that it can not automatically associate and e-Mail address and it is waiting for you to key one in.
    But, if an e-Mail address that you attempt to use is already associated with another Apple ID you will get a notice that says it is unable to verify & use because it is already associated.
    So, go to appleid.apple.com log–in (as manage your account) with any new & old accounts that you can remember and see what e-Mail addresses are associated with each of them.
    Also, occasionally when initially installing the Messages ∫Beta, you may have to power down your system a second time after you attempt to set up the account. This seems to be a hang, as it is waiting for a valid e-Mail address to be entered.
    -Remember, this is a Beta version of the software.
    -Good luck.

    I was having trouble purchasing candy crush updates (for no apparent reason, as it has been fine previously).   I thought perhpas I needed to download some new software and promptly started the IOS 6 update.   It installed and then asked me to complete the final few steps by signing in with my apple id.   When I try to do that it says "it cannot connect to the server".   I have tried turing it off and on and over riding it, but it won't let me do anything at all now on my ipad mini.
    Can anyone help?   I literally can't function!!!!

    You can't override it no matter what you do. The device has to connect to the server to complete the iOS update. You could try rebooting the iPad and see if that lets you connect to the server after it starts up.
    Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.
    If that will not work, you can try connecting to iTunes on your computer and see if the activation will complete. Sometimes when thes activation issues arise, you end up having to restore the device again, but first things first. Reboot and see what happens.

  • When I try to update my youtube app, I'm asked to sign in with my Apple ID. The only problem is, it shows my sons Email instead of mine! When I go to settings my email is still there. How can I change the email when it asks me to put MY password in?

    When I try to update my youtube app, I'm asked to sign in with my apple password but the email it shows is my sons! In my settings it still shows my email. Nowhere in my settings on my Ipod or if I sign in to Apple with my computer does it show his email. Can anyone help???

    - Apps are locked to the account that purchased them. Thus it appears that yor sone purchased the app.
    - To update apps you have to sign into the account that purchased the apps. If you have apps that need updating purchased from more than one account you have to update them one at a time until the remaining apps were purchased from one account.

  • I just restored my ipod as a new ipod and it won't let me sign in with my apple ID and says that it has an error connecting to the server, when I am already connected to the wifi.

    I just restored my ipod as a new ipod. It will not let me sign in with my apple ID and says that it has a problem connecting with the server, even though I am already connected to the wifi.

    Yes, of course.   Did you set up with your Apple ID?    
    Reset the iPad to factory and set it up with your Apple ID and password.   You can still sync different apps, music and other stuff onto the iPad,  the devices need not mirror each other.
    I have an old wifi iPad, an iPod touch and a new iPad mini with cellular.   All on the same Apple ID and password, different content on some apps, same on others.

  • I'm trying to set up my Ipod, but when I go to sign in with an apple ID it says 'Could not sign in: there was a problem connecting to the server'.

    I just bought a 3rd generation ipod touch. It was professionally refurbished. I'm trying to set it up, and everything seems to be working fine, until we get to the wifi. I live on campus and our wifi is username and password protected. I signed in and everything seemed to work fine, and in the top left hand corner I have all the bars for wifi. However, when I go to sign in with an apple ID it says 'Could no sign in: there was a problem connecting to the server'. I've tried turning it on and off again, tried signing on to our wifi again, but it all isn't working. What can I do?

    I also encountered the same problem. Try using a different email address or try signing in later.

  • I changed my sim on my iPhone n reconfigured iMessage, it configured with my number but when i sign in with my apple id it says username/password is wrong while in all other things like FaceTime, App Store it worked with the same id and password

    i changed my sim on my iPhone n reconfigured iMessage, it configured with my number but when i sign in with my apple id it says username/password is wrong while in all other things like FaceTime, App Store it worked with the same id and password..
    can anyone help me to solve this issue

    i just opened my ipad, started my apple account/I.D. and realized I put the wrong e mail. I was having trouble correcting my I.D on the Ipad so I went to my laptop and make the proper changes/slash e mail address I wanted for my apple ID. I got back to my ipad and try to download an app I can't because I have to sign in my apple account and I can't because it still has the irrelivant I.D/email address..
    So, i did what you said.. went to setting>app store> tapped on my e mail.. it asked me to sign in (with my invalid emails address showing). I signed in with the password I had created. It said "incorrect".. I went to reset password. I reset password, tried to sign in and it says again "unvalid password".. this is getting irritating.  I have been asking and no one knows what to do.
