CAN'T VERIFY ID for a new account

I just bought a Ipad2 today and try to create an Apple ID, everything seems fine until I verify apple ID, it keeps telling me"  This email address is already in use or you may already have an Apple ID associated with this email address. Please try again or sign in using your existing Apple ID."
Then I create another ID with a different email address, it happens again when I verify it.
Anybody can please explain what is happening???

Hi all,
I tried this and it worked:
1) Visit My Apple ID at https://appleid.apple.com/.
2) Click the Manage your account link on the right sideof the page.
3) Enter the account name (Apple ID) and the password you used when creating the account.
4) Change the email address associated with your account.
5) Send new verification email
I also got this from apple CS for other things to try:
Please follow these steps to access your Apple ID accountinformation:
1) Visit My Apple ID at https://appleid.apple.com/.
2) Click the Manage your account link on the right sideof the page.
3) Enter the account name (Apple ID) and the password youused when creating the account.
4) Delete any duplicate email addresses associated withyour account.
5) Click the Save Changes button.
If you do not have duplicate email addresses on your account, it is possible that your email address is already being used withanother Apple ID. In order to verify your email address with the current AppleID, it will need to be disassociated from your other Apple ID. You can do thatby following these steps:
1) Visit My Apple ID at https://appleid.apple.com/.
2) Log in with your other Apple ID and password.
3) Select the Manage your account link.
4) Choose Name, ID, and Email Address from the left sideof the page.
5) Next to Primary Email Address, select Edit so that youcan change the email address associated with this Apple ID.
6) Once you've made the desired change, select SaveChanges.
7) Choose Sign Out from the top right of the page.
If you would like to have the verification email resentto you, please sign into https://appleid.apple.com/with the Apple ID you want to verify, and make sure there is not a typo in yourPrimary Email Address. Select the "Edit" link to the right of your email address to make corrections and then click the "Save Changes" button.Once the typo is fixed, or if there is no typo, click the "Resend"link under your email address.
If you still do not receive the verification email,please reply to this email with the email address that you intend to use onyour Apple ID.
Good luck!

  • Can't sign up for a new account

    I'm not sure why, but I can't make a new Skype account. I fill in all the details properly (triple-checked everything). No errors. But when I click the "I accept" button at the bottom, nothing happens. I refreshed and tried multiple times. Same thing. Also noticed that clicking other links on the same page (even the Skype logo home button) don't do anything either.
    What's the deal?

    Why would you not be able to use your existing Apple ID and iTunes account on a new laptop? If you authorized the computer - you should be able to use your existing account - unless you already had 5 computers authorized with the existing ID - and that was why iTunes would not accept the ID. However, I'm sure that you would have received a popup message from iTunes telling you that you had reached the limit.
    I just received a new MBP and my daughter did as well. My entire family shares an Apple ID and we had no issues at all with my Apple ID and iTunes on our new computers and I did not have to sign up for a new account. Did you even try the old ID?

  • I had an Apple account on my old Lap Top to which my iPad  and iPhone were syncd. I now have a new Lap Top and when I tried to access my apple ID on it I was asked to sign up for a new account. I can't use any of them.

    I need help. I had an apple account on my old Lap Top to which my iPad and iPhone were synced ?  I recently changed my lap top. My problem is the new lap top won't accept my apple I D it asked me to sing up for a new one which I did.

  • File sharing not working for any new accounts

    I am using the latest version of Mavericks. For every new account I set up (Sharing, Administrative, Standard) trying to set up file sharing on a directory fails. When I set up the account, select a directory (on the boot drive or on an external drive) to share and do a get Info it always shows "Fetching..." on the new account. If I try to set that directory to share from an account in SysPref>Sharing when I click on the directory and try to set the account to share, even though the account shows up in the list of accounts to use, when I select any new account it does NOT show up as selected for sharing. It is as though the new account isn't quite being correctly set by the system. If I launch and look at any new account in WorkGroup manager they appear to be normal but cannot be used in File Sharing. I am really scratching my head on this, since I do everything I should to share a directory and all new accounts are just not working.
    Any ideas or suggestions???????????????  HELP HELP!

    hi there,
    that error message sounds like you placed a shared folder within a parent folder that is not shared. It also can help to boot into Recovery Mode (pressing Command and R simultanously when hearing the startup tune), launch Disk Utility, select the disk containing your OSX installation (usually named Macintosh HD) and choose Verify Disk Permissions. Should any problems be reported select Repair Disk Permissions. Once that is finished, reboot normally.
    Though unlikely, it might have happened during all the folder removing and readding that some Permissions are out of sync. So checking these Permissions is merely a precaution
    Once you are back in "normal" OSX using your admin account, try this:
    Open Terminal from the Utilites folder
    enter the following commands one line at a time:
    mkdir /Users/Shared/Family
    mkdir /Users/Shared/Family/Movies
    mkdir /Users/Shared/Family/Mom
    chown -R <placeholder> /Users/Shared/Family           
    chmod -R 755 /Users/Shared/Family
    Be sure to replace <placeholder> with your account's short name (no brackets!)
    Now open System Preferences and select Sharing
    Select File Sharing from the left pane
    Click on the little plus and add /Users/Shared/Family to your shares (The subfolders are automatically included)
    in the right most pane check the access privileges. They are set, so that you can read and write to those folders, while everyone else can only read. If you want everybody to have read and write privileges, use 777 instead of 755 within the terminal last command.
    Now the other computers should be able to see and use the shared folder you just created.
    If you create individual user accounts on your machine for every family member you want to access the shared folders, you can choose far more sophisticated levels of access privileges.
    Hope this helps,
    Chris

  • OBA1 exchange rate maintenance for the new accounts

    Dear All,
    The following three bank G/L accounts 1833280, 1833285 and 1833288 have been created in India Charts of accounts IN01 and extended to company AE10.
    The G/L accounts can now be used in AE10.
    Now tell me how can I make OBA1 exchange rate maintenance for the new accounts.
    Please share your valuable opinions with me.
    Thanks a lot in advance!!

    Hi,
    The relevant transaction in OBA1 for the bank accounts is KDF.
    Double click on KDF, a new screen will open up, where you do the following:
    You enter the bank GL account here.  If the account is to be differently handled at the level of the currency and currency type then you can further limit the exchange rate difference based on these 2 parameters.
    Once you have entered the bank GL, save and then double click the bank GL account.  A new screen will open up where you define accounts for the following:
    The accounts below will carry the forex gain loss that you when you clear foreign currency transactions.
    1.  Exchange Rate difference realised:

  • Can't verify email for iCloud on iPad or Mac

    can't verify email for iCloud on iPad or Mac / not getting email (I've apple ID)

    I have seen this issue brought up many times here in the community and decided to share my experience. I too could get verification. I had an AppleId before iCloud, it was used for Apple Store purchases. I made sure that the email I was using for the ID was not the same as what I was using for the ICloud ID. Next I signed in to my ICloud ID at
    Appleid.apple.com
    I changed my email to a secondary e-mail I had. It was a gmail account.
    I then verified that email address by logging into gmail and responding to email sent by apple.
    I logged back into iCloud account and added an additional email to my account. I added the email that previously wasn't receiving the verification.
    I then verified that email address by checking and responding to verifying email sent by apple.
    I then logged back into iCloud account. Both emails I entered were verified. (primary and secondary)
    I EDIT ' ed the primary using the secondary email address.
    This removed my secondary address and made it my primary.
    It was verified previously so I was done.
    I went into settings>iCloud and a verifying email was sent.
    It worked.
    It may seem like a lot to do, but it works.

  • I cannot turn on my notes in icloud without signing up for a new account.  I already have a functioning account, but just want to turn on another function.  What do I do?

    I already have a functioning icloud account that syncs my information from my iphone to my PC.  I don't want to start a new account, but it seems that Apple is forcing me to open a new account to merely turn on a new function, which is my notes.  Any way to turn this on without having to sign up for a new account?  I have too many accounts already to keep up with. I don't need Apple forcing me into another one.  Any help is appreciated.
    Chad

    I have the same problem. My apple account uses my yahoo address,which works fine. But when I try to turn on notes in my iPad's iCloud settings, iPad tells me I need a me.com email address, giving me only two c hoices: create or cancel .... Then when I try to create a me.com email address, iPad tells me it has already been created ... What to do?

  • HT204411 Can I charge card for the iTunes account that is not a U.S.

    Can I charge card for the iTunes account that is not a U.S.

    Hi ...
    Your credit or debit card credentials must be associated with the same country where you reside.
    "Although you can browse the iTunes Store in any country without being signed in, you can only purchase content from the iTunes Store for your own country. This is enforced via the billing address associated with your credit card or other payment method that you use with the iTunes Store, rather than your actual geographic location."

    Im switching email accounts on my itunes account am the computer isnt recognizing purchases made from my other account on the new one (apps). How can I sign in with my new account and get the purchases apps on both accounts?

    This was EXACTLY what I needed about the purchases I made from my device. However, is there a way to re-download other ones you've made from a computer? Because I realized some of them were not just purchased from my device.
    This is a picture of what it looks like now:
    http://tinypic.com/r/107quxu/7
    As you can see, the stuff circled in red doesn't give me an option to download from Cloud Beta because it already says "downloaded".
    any way to get around that?

    my iphone 5c screen is popping out from the top right side , can i exchange it for a new one at the apple store ?

    If it is still under warranty, and they determine it is a manufacturing defect, they will replace it. Be sure to back everything up before taking it into the Apple Store. That way, if you do get a new device, you will be able to set it up from the backup.
