Can't sign up for a Free Books Account

I'm trying to sell a book for free wthout an ISBN.
I just discovered that you cannot do this with a Paid Books Account. Evidently, with a Paid Books Account you must have an ISBN no matter what price you set, even if its free.
So, I set up a second Apple ID, confirmed a second credit card, and when I go to sign up for a Free Books Account, I get this error:
Is anyone else having this issue?

I feel your pain. I am working on a free e-book project to raise awareness for ALS and running into the same difficulty. We have some big name celebrities lending their Names to the book and are now being forced to explore alternate distribution networks. You are not alone!

Someone is using my personal email address for their apple ID and I'm sick of it! I can't sign up for my own itunes account or anything using MY OWN email address. My email address is my property, not theirs.

I'm using their account and will continue to reset their password and settings until they either get the message or Apple do something about it and disable or migrate their account so that I can use MY OWN email address for my own purposes.
I don't want to be informed about Apple products and services for someone else on my email account.
I want to be able to use it MYSELF for iTunes
All I am asking you to do is migrate their apple ID to their alternate email account settings and free up my email address so that:
A. I can use it and B. I stop getting messages about their account history.
Either that or just cancel their account as they have no right to use my personal details.
Yes I could set up a new email address but WHY THE **** should I? I've been using this email account for years for personal stuff, it's not mu fault if someone can sign it up as an AppleID without me being able to confirm their sign up process!
Your move Apple, make it count.

Hi Sister Kate,
If you change the Apple ID you are using on an iPhone or other iOS device, there are several places you need to change it on the device. See this article -
Apple ID: What to do after you change your Apple ID
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.

HT204053 Can't sign up for a free ICloud on my IPad 1

I can't sign up for a game center account with my apple id email!

I have seen one entry about this already, but it didn't give an answer. I just got an iPhone and can use my apple ID to get apps just fine. But I can't create a Game Center account. In the other thread I saw about this, someone suggested to make sure your birth year is entered in your information. I've done that but it doesn't help.
Anyone know how I can fix this issue?

I'm trying to re-install Adobe Photoshop 11 on a new harddrive. I have my serial #, but can't find a link where I can install it. All the places want me to sign up for a free trial.

Hello. I have adobe forms and received the alert that it will be ending in July. Then I received an email about Adobe Acrobat XI Pro which can create forms. I signed up for the free trial and when I began to make a new form it brings me back to Adobe Form

Hello. I have adobe forms and received the alert that it will be ending in July. Then I received an email about Adobe Acrobat XI Pro which can create forms. I signed up for the free trial and when I began to make a new form it brings me back to Adobe Forms. My question is, when Adobe Forms ends on July 28th will Adobe Acrobat XI Pro be able to create forms or will it now? and if not, then why is adobe advertising for it still?

What you're calling "Adobe Forms" is really Adobe FormsCentral. The FormsCentral service is indeed going away soon, but you can always create PDF forms (AcroForms) with Acrobat. Acrobat also comes with a desktop version of the FormsCentral desiger, which can be used to create simple PDF forms that can be used apart from the FormsCentral service. So you'll no longer be able to create and host web forms with the FormsCentral service or use PDF forms with the FormsCentral service. You will be able to create standalone PDF forms with Acrobat and simple PDF forms with the FormsCentral desktop app.

I signed up for a free trial. I want to convert a Word document to a PDF document. I've signed in and been through the process a dozen times. It doesn't work.

Hi kemtnilion,
What did you get a trial of? Adobe doesn't offer free trials of the Acrobat.com online services; did you get a free trial of Acrobat, perhaps? If so, you can save a PDF directly to Word from Acrobat, by choosing File > Save as Other > Microsoft Word > Word Document.
Please let us know if you have additional questions.

Can I sign up for adobe acrobat for just one month?

can I sign up for adobe acrobat for just one month?

That is not clear to me since they only appear to offer Anuual and Prepaid Annual options. You can always go with the free 30 day trial if you haven't already.

Can't create new free books account in iTunes Connect

I am trying to create a new free books account so that I can publish my book to ibooks. I just keep getting the same error message over and over and all of the info I am inputting is correct."Error saving application" What the???? where now. I have created by book and I want to get it up and running. Please advise.
Thanks

The solutiuon is here.....
Apple have new requirements..... iTunes, iBooks Free and iBooks Paid each require a diferent ID - email address and passwords.
Apple do not seem to think about chaning the website everytime they change rules and requirements.
For World renowned high tech products business.... at times they do nothing to help their users!!

HT1937 How can I cancel my iTunes Free Books Account?

Repeat: how can I cancel my iTunes Free Books Account?

Just stop using it. Anything you downloaded is forever tied to that account
and you will need to use that account for any updates to items downloaded
with the account.
What is the problem that you wish to cancel the account? If you give more
detail, perhaps someone may suggest a solution.

How can I transition from a free books account to a paid books account?

I created a free books account (based on my existing itunes ID) to post 2 books just to test out the process. Now that I feel like I know what I'm doing, I'd like to update a paid book, but can't figure out how to go about doing it. I created a second Itunes ID to create a paid book account, but then the SSN I used for that account was the same (obviously) as the one I used for the free account and that's where I ran up against a wall. What to do now?
Thanks!

You will need to retain your free books account - its not 'transferable" in any way.
You will need to apply for for a Paid Books account, new "username" email address is required.
You will need to fulfil the requirements in the Contracts and Banking section of your "new account" - you can use the same bank and credit card details and you will to apply to the USA tax office for an EIN.
I used this.
1-267-941-1099 USA IRS Telephone - you may have to change the country code from 1
http://www.irs.gov/pub/irs-pdf/fss4.pdf Its better to download teh PDF, print it off, fill it in and have it with you when you phone the IRS. Try to calculate your call to be 6.30pm East Coast US time - they work till 7pm so at 6.30pm.. it is usually a quiet time and should mean no waiting online for an agent.

Keep current AppleID for Free Books Account?

I'm about to sign up on iTunes Connect to upload/publish my iBooks Author files using a Free Books Account. Should i use my current AppleID that I buy apps and songs with, or create a new one? Advantages of each? I plan to open a Paid Books Account later and sell my work in the iBooks store. Thanks for your advice.

Seems like that Apple are adding to their (or publishers') troubles. After the multiple Apple ID problems with iCloud, you'd think they would avoid them. (Apple have steadfastly refused to consolidate Apple IDs.)
Seeing that an Apple ID requires a unique email address, this could be quite problematic for people who already have two Apple IDs because now, they need to get themselves a third email address.

I setting my Apple ID already, bud can't sign in for verify it help me please for verify it

Here's an updated set of instructions you can try:
Make sure you are signed into iMessage and FaceTime with your current ID. If they are signed into the old ID, go to Settings>Messages>Send & Receive and Settings>FaceTime, tap the ID, sign out, then sign back in with your current ID.
Then temporarily recreate the old ID by going to https://appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your current iCloud ID. Click edit next to the primary email account, change it back to your old email address and save the change. (You should not have to verify the old email account so it doesn’t matter if you no longer have access to it.) Now go to Settings>iCloud, turn off Find My iDevice and enter your current password when prompted (even though it prompts you for the password for your old ID). Then save any photo stream photos that you wish to keep to your camera roll (unless using iCloud Photo Library). When finished go to Settings>iCloud, tap Sign Out (or Delete Account if you are not running iOS 8) 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 back to the way it was. Now you can go to Settings>iCloud and sign back in with your current iCloud ID and password (your data will download back to your device).

Hi there
Trial plans do not need to be cancelled.
I've made a change to your current Adobe ID with USA as the country so please go ahead and create a new Adobe ID with the correct country using the same email address.
You'll then be able to sign up for a paid membership.
Thanks
