FaceTime is Unable to verify address

In trying to sign into FaceTime using my Apple ID with the corresponding password, I get the "unable to verify email" message. When I try to use my Apple ID with an arbitrary password, I get an "Incorrect Apple ID or password" error message. Could it be Airport Extreme or Virus Barrier v6? I get no message in my junk email. I've read issues with iPods and iPads but I haven't come across any discussions with FaceTime on iMacs with OSX Lion.
Any links?
Additional: Could it be due to having several ampersands in the password?

Unable to Verify Address for iMessage

Trying to set up iMessage on my iPod Touch (iOS5). I have a valid Apple ID, and it has been verified. I received the verification link via email on my computer, clicked it, and the Apple ID has in fact been verified. I even received the "Welcome" email from iTunes letting me know how to dowload music, video etc..
BUT when try to launch iMessage on my iPod Touch, I get the message, "Unable to verify address. An email with a verification link has been sent to the above email address" However, no such email has been sent. I logged back into my Apple ID and checked my account, and everything's been verified.
Help!

Newly built home. Unable to verify address. Apple not responding. What can I do?

I recently moved into a brand new home on a new street. I am currently unable to purchase anything on the itunes store because my address cannot be verified. I've submitted the form to Apple, however I have received no response other than the auto-generated email. Someone please help! I am not able to use the post office website to verify the address either although I do receive mail at the new home. Is there any way for me to speak with someone at Apple?

Facetime error: "Unable to verify email because it is already in use."

So am I meant to use another email account just to use Facetime?

rimi, You finally hit on the right solution. I have been a little haphazard in creating Apple IDs over the years. Partly Apple's fault for not making it clear that iTunes and the Store etc. all use the same ID. Anyway, after a couple of chats and some experimentation I discovered that I actually had 4 Apple IDs! The oldest one wasn't even an email address it was more like a user name. My primary email address was associated that name and was keeping the more recent IDs from associating with FaceTime properly since I was trying to use the primary email address in a newer account that was a dup of the original account.
If you go to link https://appleid.apple.com/cgi-bin/WebObjects/MyAppleId.woa?localang=en_US
you can look up your ID by entering your expected email addresses. It found my primary old account and reset the PW but I couldn't then log in because I didn't have the correct ID. The solution was to change the email address in accounts I could see to something besides the primary address (I used real addresses, apparently you found that bogus ones would work too.) Then I could search for the primary address in my original ID, reset the PW and finally get logged in to the original account.
FYI, I called Apple help a couple of times and asked them to tell me my accounts, but they didn't see (or least didn't mention) the oldest one that was causing the issue by having my primary email associated with more than one Apple ID. Unfortunately Apple apparently has no way to merge into one account. The only option is to delete an account but you loose any purchases made against that account.

ITunes unable to verify address for sales tax - "Please try again later"

Just bought a new iPod Classic, and when I first connected to my MacBook, I got all the way through registering the iPod when I came to a screen for address verification. The county I live in was able to be pulled up in the drop down menu, but when I hit done, it loads for a bit then gives me an error message that says "We are currently experiencing technical difficulties. Please try again later."
Since I can't sync my iPod until I am done with this screen, I am stuck. Has this happened to anyone else and is there any fix besides waiting for the error to be fixed?

Hello e-b p,
Thanks for the question, and welcome to Apple Support Communities.
When encountering iTunes Store connectivity issues, the following resources provide the best solutions. To isolate the issue further, I'd be curious to know if it persists on other Wi-Fi networks (assuming you are using a portable computer). Either way, please attempt the steps outlined in these articles:

IMessage/Facetime unable to verify email address.

I recently updated to the new iOS 5 on my iPod Touch 4G, and when trying to sign in to either Facetime or iMessage it gives me this message for one of my apple IDs: "Unable to verify address. An email with a verification has been sent to the above email address." No email has been received so far.
For my other Apple ID, it says "Unable to verify address because it is already in use". My two Apple IDs have their own email address, and I use both to shop on iTunes, so I have no idea what the problem is.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. This is gettint frustrating.

I'm having the same problem. I sign into iMessage on my iPad, then continue to verify that main email, but it fails. I have checked on the site below to see that it has already been verified. Same deal with FaceTime. Tried rebooting iPad, same issue.
TIP: you can use the site below to view your account and resend validation emails. But for me, even the validated ones are not being accepted. Maybe that server is down?

Unable to verify iMessage address?

Okay, so I was on my iPod earlier and realized I couldn't send iMessages. It was working perfectly fine yesterday, but today it didn't work. I've had it for a couple months now, and its 4th gen ios 5.0.1. Heres how it happened:
I was trying to send an iMessage, and it wouldn't deliver. Yes my wifi was on, i turned it off then on again, then turned off iMessage and signed out and powered off/on, but then when I tried to sign back in after it wouldn't let me. It would try verifying but in the end it would just say "Unable to verify address. An email with a verification link has been sent to the above email address."
I checked my email. Nothing. What happened, and can I fix it? I also tried a different email (knowing it was invalid) then tried putting in my actual one and yet, it wouldn't verify? Take in note, that it worked for months up till yesterday so YES, my Apple ID is verified. Help!
Please don't tell me to check the 'More Like This' because I can't find a solution for me in there.
