Being asked to verify email address Phishing?
Right after after i log in, I am being sent to a full screen that asks to verify my email address. As of yet ,I have not done this and have instead gone back to a google portal to access email without being verified. Is this a phishing ploy? How can I tell when my verizon site is the real thing? The verification page page does not have a Truste logo on the bottom, but it does have a "lock icon" at the top. I seem to remember the web adress being www.22verizon or something like that
Confused,
Be confused no more that is not a phishing site its to make sure if anything happens at vz.com you are identified asap so if you make any changes to your service as well as paying your bill.

I am being asked to verify my Apple ID. When I enter the password I get the message it is wrong. It says the e-mail address is already verified for another Apple ID and then it says it is sending an e-mail to my e-mail account that I then never receive. How do I resolve this?
This is most likely caused by an iCloud sign up (which forces you to use an email address as Apple ID).
Here's the workaround fix I found after some online research:

I keep trying to sign in and it keeps saying "Check your email at ***********.com for instructions to verify this account." But there is no email or message being received at this email address. I really want to use iCloud and I'm not understanding why this is not working. I'm thinking there needs to be another email sent but I am just not aware of how to send it. Please help me.
You must have had another apple ID at some stage with its own password and it is that ID that must e the primary or rescure email address for the ID. Go to appleid.apple.com and then to manage ID and see if you can't sort it there

I am trying to install free apps but am being asked to verify payment account first, why is this happening and will I be charged?
Are you currently in the country where your iTunes account is based ? You won't be charged for downloading free apps (some free apps do then allow you to make in-app purchases to unlock extra features, though you can turn that off via Settings > General > Restritions > In-App Purchases 'off'), but if you add or change the credit card details on your account then you are likely to receive a temporary store holding charge to check that the card details are valid and that it's registered to exactly the same name and address as on your iTunes account - that should disappear within a few days or so.
Store holding charge : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3702
If you only want to download free apps then there are instructions on this page for how to create a new account in your country's store without giving a credit card number : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2534 -

I am unable to verify email address to sign in to icloud so that I can backup my stuff. I am not getting an email from apple to follow a link to verify email address. I have checked to make sure the email address is correct in the icloud settings, but all it will tell me is to check my email for instructions on how to verify my account. I am not getting the email! Please help, I am able to sign in to my itunes account and buy new music all the time! I get my itunes receipts and everything, and know the email is correct so what is the deal?
If you have given correct info about you ios 6.1.3 - all you need to do is delete account. You will be able to sign in with new one afterwards. Make sure you don't delete any info when you see those prompts.

Trying to purchase a game and being asked to verify information. Asking for security code. What is that?
Where exactly are you seeing it ? Messages about security codes usually refer to the 3 or 4 digit code on the credit card that you have on your account : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3541

I can not open my ipad mini, a message says " cannot back up. This ipad can not back up to icloud without a verified email address. later , settings but neither of the two when clicked can't be opened.pls advise on what to do?
Have you tried a soft-reset ? Press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider if it appears), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

The above Primary Email Address on file is not verified. Click the link below to send a verification email to this email address. Please follow the instructions in the email.
Send Verification Email
NOTE: To change your Primary Email Address on file, please visit the Profile Page.Checked my email (Verizon email) and no email was sent to me for email verification. Nothing sent to inbox and nothing in my spam folder. It didnt send anything to me. I am tired of that message popping up and that other one too about the facebook connect or whatever. It pops up and blocks the inbox message amount. Stupid.

IPad cannot backup without a verified email address--LOCKED
Message pops up after lock screen that says:
"iPad cannot backup without a verified email address"
with the options of LATER and SETTINGS. I usually select LATER button and move on. This time it is locked up. I tried a hard rest by pressing the home button and power/ sleep button but nothing happens.
I have not setup an iCloud account, and have not set up to sync with a Mac or PC.
Please help.Thanks JimHdk,
Can't get to the settings due to the error message. It will not allow me to select an option.
I do believe that a hard reset is the answer, and i am able to go through to the black out screen, but the Apple logo is not coming up.
If I am unable to accmplish a hard reset today I may just have to make an appointment at the genius bar. -
It shows my iPad cannot back up to iCloud without a verified email address. I touched Later and Settings but it's not working and I can't even switch it off or anything. What should I do?
If your iPad is unresponsive, reset it by holding the power and home buttons until you see the Apple logo, then release.
