Apple ID Verified... SORT OF ?!?!?

I made a change of email address the other night and clicked submit. That was a mistake! I got the email from Apple to VERIFY the new address, I did. I then got the big green check mark that said VERIFIED! I assume that meant verified. Unfortunately, I cannot log into my iTunes account now, it says it's not yet verified. When I click the OK button, it takes me right to the verification screen with that stupid ginormous green check that says VERIFIED, but it's not. I'm stuck in an infinite loop.
Side note, I logged into Apple Discussions with my VERIFIED yet not really VERIFIED Apple ID.

Step one:
I went to my e-mail, and I clicked on FAQ in the e-mail sent for verifying
Step two:
Clicked on the first link
Review Apple ID frequently asked questions
Step three:
Went down to the last question
How do I verify my Apple ID by email?
Simply follow the link in the verification email that says "Verify Now." Sign in with your current Apple ID and password, then click Verify Address. You can also verify by signing in at My Apple ID.
and clicked on "My Apple ID"
Step four:
Clicked on "Manage my account"
Step five:
Sign in, then I noticed that I had my alternative the same as my primary, so I deleted my alternative,
then I try to sign again, they ask me to verify it, I verify, and I logged in!

  • I uploaded that new IOS 8.0 and now I cannot open my mail, Safari, or the new "TIPS" app. Does Apple have some sort of help, other than going to a store that is over 40 miles away?

    I do backup with iCloud.  I can't wait until the new iMac is available so that I can once again have my files in more than 1 location without needing to rely solely on the cloud. 
    I also rely on iTunes and my MacBook and Time Machine as well as backing up to iCloud. I know many users know have gone totally PC free, but I chose to use iCloud merely as my third backup.
    I assume that the restore would result in my ability to open Pages and Numbers and fix the problem with deleting apps, but this would also mean that if my Numbers documents still exist solely within the app and are just not on iCloud for some reason that they would be gone forever.  Is that right?
    In a word, yes. In a little more detail.... When you restore from an iCloud backup, you must erase the device and start all over again. There is no other way to access the backup in iCloud without erasing the device. Consequently, you are starting all over again. Therefore, it would also be my assumption that Pages and Numbers will work again and that the deleting apps issues would be fixed as well.
    If the documents are not in the backup, and you do not have a backup elsewhere, the documents could be gone forever.

Then it throws up a message saying device cannot be be found. Please help im a little stuck as to what to do now

    Return the iPhone and get your money back. It has been
    hacked/modified/jailbroken and likely cannot be made
    operative.

  • Can the Apple store verify my purchase and warranty by serial number

    Can the Apple store verify my purchase and warranty period by serial number ??

    Serial number from device could mean it's been sitting in the warehouse for a year before he purchased it can't it?
    It could, but all authorized dealers are required to report the sale date and serial number to Apple. That's how Apple knows when a device was sold to set the warranty date; the warranty starts on the day the authorized dealer sells the device to the user, not when the dealer receives the device from Apple.
    How would they know his serial number from his device without registering it because I know all the serial numbers show up on my devices but like I said how would the serial number prove that he didn't purchase the device 6 months - 1 year after it left the warehouse or place of purchase.
    See my previous response.
    Says on website Apple may require a proof of purchase and to keep your receipt.
    They may, though usually they don't. But again, the user is not required to register the device with Apple to validate the warranty. In fact, in many countries it is illegal for any manufacturer to require registration before a warranty is honored. The proof of purchase is all that would ever be needed, and again if the device is take directly to Apple that's almost never required.

  • IMessage stopped working on iOS 5.1.1 after I set up a new Apple ID.  After logging in, it keeps cycling back to the "create ID" screen.  Apple's verified my new ID. I've reset the iPod (3) times--no luck.

    I solved my problem by Resetting my iPod and then Restoring my files.  Only speed bump was losing two apps in the Restore, as the current versions now require iOS 7.1, minimum.  Apple makes Reset and Restore (two processes) painless with these Help articles:  "Use iTunes to restore your iOS device to factory settings," and "Back up and restore your iPhone, iPad, or iPod Touch using iCloud or iTunes."  The Restore took a while to synch my photos and iTunes libraries.

  • Why is apple not verifying my macbook when installing OSX ?

    hi
    i try desperately to re-install OSX (latest 10.9.4) on my macbook air late 2013
    after doing the described steps with deleting existing partition etc, i choose install OSX in the window that appears when i reboot the macbook air.
    i am connected to internet etc.
    it says, apple will try to verify the permission of this macbook.
    ok
    then it says there are no permissions about this macbook.
    BUT i buyer this macbook inswitzerland, now i am in argentina, the macbook is NOT stolen or modificated, no illegal software etc.
    WHY does apple not permit to re-install OSX?
    even in the internet recovery mode, it breaks in the middle of download, and theeere appears:
    apple.com/support 21 00F
    nothing more.
    appple has very poor support about this, very poor information on what exactly is wrong.
    i WANT to reinstall osx, because my hard drive is full of "other" data, obviously it came with updates along the time. so want  a new, nice, clean install and thats all.
    can anybody help me?
    i of course have a time machine backup, from which i am now using macbook aair,
    but this is not the idea of a new install.

    OK, i calmed down, sorry.
    following the situation:
    macbook air,
    11 inch
    mid 2013,
    1,3 ghz intel core i5,
    4 GB 1600 MHz DDR3,
    originally with mountain lion, then upgraded to mavericks in december 2013, today: OSX Mavericks 10.9.4
    buyed in switzerland, NOT in a apple store but in a re-seller store.
    did firstly set up a apple-id with the following email address:
    undenk(at)undenk.info
    and then changed to
    macbook(at)yoonect.com
    (this change worked well, every account as itunes etc is working great, can download and upgrade)
    (only the recover email of apple id is not "changeable", it is still set to my first recover email, but i already sent a fill-form to apple in order to change that)
    PROBLEM:
    i want re-install mavericks or it also could be original software, mountain lion, it odes not matter.
    this because my mac is full of unwanted data.
    because of wrong settings
    because i just want to re-install it form begin, if this is ok?
    i tried to re-install from the recover-hd-frive (hidden), and everything worked well, i deleted the existing hd where installation was on, partitioned to a guided, apple journaled partition, quit the "program", chooses "reinstall the OSX".
    then the installation process begins, and in the very beginning macbook advertises me that Apple will verify the permission of my computer in order to load OSX and reinstall it.
    i hit OK
    then very quickly a warning shows up:
    apple did not find any installation information on this device, talk to Applecare.
    so, then i tried Internet Recover, by pressing alt+cmd+r when booting.
    i entered wifi password, (wpa2 personal) and macbook connects to the wifi and e load-bar starts to show up, but after the first 2 minutes a error message shows up, and the globe stops turning.
    error: 4403F
    another try i got: error: 2100F
    as researched in internet this means problems with wifi passwords, firewall, etc.
    i set my router to unprotected, opened every hole in the firewall, disabled the firewall etc. same result.
    fazit:
    it is not possible to load or install neither mavericks or original OSX on macbook air mid 2013.
    during the (very short) "installation process" i have NEVER BEEN asked for apple id etc.
    (it also would NOT MAKE ANY SENSE then the macbook is never purchased with a apple ID, the apple id comes later, after purchasing it.)
    so , i pleas e any body out tehr:
    WHAT MUST I DO IN ORDER TO GET MAVERICKS ON MY MACBOOK????
    (i want a clean fresh install and not an update or alikes)
    muchas gracias cabrones!!!!!!

    If you have an old ID in Settings>iCloud as a result of updating to iOS 7, to change it you have to go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account, provide the password for the old ID when prompted to turn off Find My iPhone, then sign back in with the ID you wish to use.  If you don't know the password for your old ID, or if it isn't accepted, go to https//appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your current iCloud ID.  Tap edit next to the primary email account, tap Edit, change it back to your old email address and save the change (you should need to verify the old account).  Then edit the name of the account to change it back to your old email address.  You can now use your current password to turn off Find My iPhone on your device, even though it prompts you for the password for your old account ID. Then go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account and choose Delete from My iDevice when prompted (your iCloud data will still be in iCloud).  Next, go back to https//appleid.apple.com and change your primary email address and iCloud ID name back to the way it was.  Now you can go to Settings>iCloud and sign in with your current iCloud ID and password.

  • Hey guys apple need to sort this issue people are buying new phones here and the sound not playing from there phones like alot of people are having the same problem apple are ignoring it. I went to an apple shop for them to want 150 pounds of me

    Hey guys apple need to sort this volume problem out soon like there is guys who have just bought new phones and it is happening to there's.i went to an apple shop for them to tell me I had to pay £150 to get it replaced I don't want a replacement so clearly they know what the problem is apple need to review this site and act fast before they loose alot of customers.

    If you just purchased your iPhone, it will still be under warranty and Apple will replace it at no charge assuming that there hasn't been any damage due to abuse. So anyone with a new iPhone will be taken care of. If your iPhone is out of warranty and it has a hardware problem, then you have to pay the replacement charge regardless of what the problem is. Apple does not repair individual iPhones, they replace them. If you want the iPhone repared rather than replaced, you'll need to send the iPhone to an independent repair shop.
    Since you don't say what "volume problem" you're referring to, though, we can't say whether or not this is indeed a hardware problem. Perhaps if you'll detail the problem and what steps you've taken to try and correct it, someone can offer advice.
    Regards.

  • How long it will take for apple to verify my info to get the new software for free?

    how long it will take for apple to verify my info to get the new software for free?
    i have submit my request since 6 hours, is that normal??

    from what i hear, it takes a minimum of 72 hours before you hear back from Apple.
    but because there are a lot of people are wanting to get their free upgrades, it might take even longer now.
    good luck - just be a little patient and your turn will come soon....

  • Is anyone from Apple going to sort the 8.0 problem with a new update

    ...and please...call it version 9 with a big note on it saying "it's alright ...we tested this one first!"
    I just stopped downloading the dodgy version half way through after reading the problems encountered!

    My sync problem has been going on since I updated to IOS 8. I have had two telephone help calls and one Genius Bar visit. I am no further forward.
    MY iPhone and iPad will randomly fill to capacity with OTHER files requiring a complete reboot. I have disabled iCloud drive and tried reorganising and deleting files from my iTunes library. All of my devices worked almost perfectly prior to this upgrade. I now dread syncing either of my devices to see what latest iTunes problem is now present.
    I Have one simple question which no one at Apple has answered. When iTunes finds a file it doesn't like or will not sync why does it not flag it up with the reason for the problem. iTunes has done this for many years with incompatible files and missing album art work. If iTunes could only tell us why it is continually waiting for sync to start or give us a reason for our iOS device suddenly filling to capacity with OTHER files at least we would be able to do our own diagnosis and repairs. Apple need to sort out this issue soon. I'm losing patience and faith in Apple products. So no iPhone 6 upgrade for me till this gets properly sorted.

  • Does Apple offer any sort of trade-in program?

    I think it's silly that they release a new model every year, but I guess that's just the way the industry works. Unfortunately, I don't have the money to buy a new model every year, so I want to know if Apple has any sort of trade-in program where iPod (touch) owners can trade in their old model towards the new model.

    Technology moves fast, which means many capable gadgets go from daily use to trash heap fairly quickly within a yearly basis. What was worth months ago becomes an obsolete technology as with Ipod upgrades every fall. I hate to bring bad news, but there is no trade-in program that apple offers to recycle your old gadget for cash. However that doesn't mean that other companies offer that same service for apple Ipods. Let me give you the information you need of those online service trade for old gadgets.

    I am not a apple guy. I bought this apple mini to run 1 app to assist me at work. I have tried for two days to buy the app, BUT I cannot because my AppleID is NOT verified. I have asked for the verification e-mail about 100 times. I am definitely NOT impressed with Apple.
