"An unknown error has occurred" when creating an Apple ID

Hi,
I'm trying to create an Apple ID at appleid.apple.com, and all I get is "An unknown error has occurred."
Is Apple's Apple ID infrastructure broken?

Apple’s having trouble with the Mac App Store and iTunes App Store right now. Try again later.

    Make sure you have the correct country selected. Click the round flag icon bottom right side of the App Store window.

    urgh... just noticed my previous post said i have mountain lion... i meant that i have snow leopard.  no idea why i messed that up!
    anyway, i just tried reinstalling snow leopard from the usb key that came with the computer. Then, I installed software updates until it told me there were no more updates. After that, I tried the app store again, and it still is giving me the unknown error. really irked by that. may have to take it back to the apple store yet again, to see if i can figure out why the app store won't work.

    Hi ...
    Try here > Mac App Store: "An unknown error occurred (100)" when purchasing
    If that doesn't help, drag the App Store icon straight up off your Dock so it goes, "poof".
    Now drag the App Store icon from your Applications folder to the Dock. Try updating your apps.

  • Why do I keep getting "an unknown error has occurred" when I try to update or add an app?  I have plenty of memory left.  Suggeestions?

    Why do I keep getting this message "an unknown error has occurred" when I try to update or load an app.  The issue is not space (memory) as I have 2/3 memory left to use.  Any suggestions?

    Hi ...
    Installing the OS X Lion Update 10.7.3 (Client Combo) reinstalls the App Store for you which may help. Restart your Mac after the combo is installed.
    It's ok to do this even though you are already running v10.7.3.
    If that doesn't help, if you have anti virus software installed, disable that.
    If you have an app called LIttle Snitch installed, that can prevent apps from updating.

  • Getting "an unknown error has occurred" when trying to update apps or download books

  • I am getting "an unknown error has occurred" when trying to download any free apps from my brand new 4GS iPhone

    I am getting "an unknown error has occurred" when trying to download any free apps from my brand new 4S iPhone.
    Please Help!!

    I had the exact same problem.  Worked fine for a couple days then suddenly getting this error.  I fixed it, however. 
    Do this:
    Open the App Store app on your phone.
    Go to the "Featured" section.
    Scroll to the very bottom of the page and click on your Apple ID.
    Screen pops up. Choose "Sign out".
    Scroll to the bottom of the "Featured" section again.
    Sign back in.
    Try your download again.
    This worked for me.  Good luck!

  • IBooks for IPad 2 Unknown  error has occurred when I try to download ?

    iBooks for IPad 2 Unknown error has occurred when I try to download ?
    Every time I try to download iBooks from AppStore it give me a unknown Error when it starts to load.  Has any one else ever had this problem and any way to fix this.
    Thanks

    Fixed!!--Same error issue, but I hadn't downloaded any apps that required syncing. New iPad2 this Wednesday (6/15/11). Per other suggestions on this forum I tried hooking up to the laptop (already had latest iTunes loaded before my iPad2 came), iTunes started up, went to Apple iStore, login, confirm payment, try to download 'iBooks' it says I already have it. Look at the iPad and it's there.
    This fix took all of 3-minutes and all is good. Now to learn to move things around. Newbie here  Thanks to the forum for tips on things to try. I need to go back through documentation to see why I had such a problem. Not exactly plug-n-play, but then again, I fighting the urge to 'right-click'.   Love the iPad2 so far. My first Apple-anything.

  • An error has occurred when creating this editor

    I had created a View in a WDC project which I had also deployed and run successfully in GP several times. Once I closed and opened NetWeaver Developer Studio, and tried to open this View again I get an error saying 'An error has occurred when creating this editor'. Please let me know what could be the reason.
    Anil

    I also faced with this problem several times but without fatal consequences. To be sure you can check the log in your workspace and paste it to the thread.
    Also, try to close all the views and reopen the studio, usually it solves the problem.

  • Help-unknown error has occurred when logging into mac app store

    I am unable to log into the mac app store. It says "an unknown error has occurred" i can log onto itunes without any issues. ive read some discussions and tried to delete networkinterfaces.plist but it doesnt even seem to exist, ive looked in 3 different preferences files. I also tried to create a new user id from the mac store and it doesnt even recognize when i click to create user. what can i do next???  Thanks

    Sorry,
    you don't need any app Store. That - sorry - bullshi. is mother of all problems.
    There is the usuall Software Update process - all can find in finder menue below the apple logo. So why I have to update my iLife and iWork via App Store? Can't this be done by Software update as before? No, we need something special and we also deny any other possible way, like download from apple support page and install manually. No, everybody needs App Store - and then we get an issue after software update and don't get a fix? Sorry, that what I dislike most  - a bad customer support.
    So, no one needs App Store for a Fix - all apple has to do is simply provide a simple MacUpdate via Software Update process and all is fine again.
    And Software Update is just in such cases the best choice and most possible way to fix such problems - and we need also a valid and good second way - if all strings get cut...
    We need ways without any strong internet - because I know places, were you cannot download a MacOS

  • Error An unknown error has occurred when adding email to Apple ID

    I am trying to merge two Apple ID's into one. On one I changed the primary email address to an unused email address so I can take the former primary email address and add that email adress to the second Apple ID. When I try to add the email address that used to be the primary email address of the first Apple ID to the second Apple ID (either as a change to the main email address or add a secondary email address) I get the error "An unknown error has occurred." When I go back into the first Apple ID it will add that original email address as a primary or secondary account without any issues. But I get the same error if I try and add that original email address to any other Apple ID (I even tried adding it to a third Apple ID). It would appear that an email address used as an Apple ID cannot be used with any other Apple ID account. Is that correct?
