HT4367 Apple TV stops,reads already in use

Watching a movie from Amazon Prime. 26 minutes into movie,it stops. The IPad screen is still showing the movie,but our TV shows the ITunes movie screen. The airplay shows that I am back to "IPad". When I try to go to the Apple TV ,mirror and renter number( which is the same number I used", it states that Apple TV is already in use by someone else. I tried to close out my iPad and go out and back in again, no change. Help!

"iTunes is not available at this time message": Is this because you are using a Home Sharing setting in iTunes or are you using the Apple TV by itself.
Are the films downloaded or are they streaming?

Apple ID email address already in use

Whenver I try to make an Apple ID account with my main email (Hotmail), it always says that the email address is already in use. I am currently using my Gmail address as my Apple ID. I've tried recovering my Apple ID through security questions but it always says the birthdate that I entered is incorrect. When I try to send a recovery email I never receive one. When I try to find my Apple ID, no results show up. The only time I remember using my email to sign up for something associated with Apple was when I was setting up my MacBook. It asked if I wanted to receive newsletters, notifications etc from Apple and I entered my Hotmail email for it. Don't know if that's the problem.

Is the email address being used in the account of another Apple ID that you have?

No apple ID found AND already in use??

So I just made a new apple ID. I go to log in and it says wrong password...
I try to reset my password and I get nothing, it's been 7 hours. Then I tried to find my apple ID (using my email), what comes up says:
"No Apple ID found.
We can't find an Apple ID matching the information you provided. You may have entered a name that doesn't exactly match our records"
I try to sign up again and a message came up saying:
"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."
What am I supposed to do? I tried to reset my password using my email and nothing shows up in my inbox. I try to reset my password using my info and it says my birthday is wrong.

Hello RyuuseiBaku,
My Mum is experiencing exactly the same problem. I have been in touch with apple but am getting passed around several departments. I think in the meantime I'm going to set her up with a new email address but this doesn't seem very satisfactory.
I think some kind of email address reset is what is needed but there doesn't seem to be a useful way into the apple help system to get to the right people.
If anyone finds a way to do this, please could they share it - I for one would be most grateful.
Thanks,
Simon

I have just had a replacement IPad as the camera stopped working. Now the new iPad won't recognise my aol e mail for face time as well as my apple id. I have tried adding as a second e mail, but it says already in use

I have just had a replacement iPad as the camera stopped working.
Now the new iPad won't receive FaceTime calls at my aol.com email.
If I try to add it as a FaceTime address it just says email address already in use.
I guess it is still linked to the old iPad in some way
Any suggestions? The old I pad is wiped and back in the store

This Apple article should be able to help ya out -> iOS: FaceTime is 'Unable to verify email because it is in use'

Apple id is already being used

Trying to go through the set up process with the new software and am being told that the id is already in use in. I did have to have use my email address as the account name now, didn't have it set up that way previously. That is one change that has occured with the apple login process.
Doesn't the same id apply across all devices?
Help please.

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.

My current Apple ID, for which all of my content has been downoaded (e.g., music, apps) is associated with a work email address that I will no longer have access to in the near future. In my Apple ID account, I noticed I had two alternate emails listed, one is my .me account and the other is my .gmail account. I use my .gmail account, and it is the primary email I use with friends and family. I noticed both were not verified, and when I tried to, it said they were both associated with other accounts. I was able to log into a separate Apple ID account I must have set up at tone point with my .gmail, and I changed the email address to a new one I created. I also deleted the gmail account from any other Apple-relted account I could think of. I am still gettgin the same error message when I try to add it to my current Apple ID: "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."
My concern is this: with FaceTime and now iMessage, it seems more important than ever that I am able to use my correct email address. With iOS5 beta, I cannot enter either my .gmail or.me accounts under "You can be reached for messages at:" as I get an error stating: Unable to verify email because it is already in use."
How can I remedy this issue and assign my .gmail account to my Apple ID?

Re: Cant verify Apple ID
created by kelly218 in iTunes Store - View the full discussion
I just spoke with a technician at Apple. I hsven't been able to verify because the wife has the phone. but he said all that you need to do is:
1) Go to Settings --> iTunes Store and login with your Apple ID and pwd
2) Go to Settings --> iCloud and login with your Apple ID and pwd
seems that the phone requires you to login to the store first...

Why do you ask in the iWeb forum?

Okay so when I try to download apps on my phone a totally different Apple ID that I've never used before popped up. I've already tried settings under apps/iTunes and signed into my own apple account. But even doing so my apple Id won't show up

Try this:
Open the iTunes app, select the Music tab, then scroll all the way down to the bottom. Here you can sign out of any current Apple ID and sign into a new one. Good luck!
And just in case there is another Apple ID linked to your account you can check at http://appleid.apple.com.

My itunes comes up with this when i try to download purchased songs: this devise is already associated with an apple id. this devise can be used with another apple id in 82 days. i need help to see if i can fix this problem please.

i have an iphone 4s i signed out of my itunes on the devise and my friend signed herself into ituned but i signed her out an myself back in but my purchased songs and tones cannot download. it gives me a message of:this device is already associated with an apple id. this device can be used with another apple id in 82 days! is there anyway for me to fix this or override something. im freaking out!!

Sorry: once a device has been authorised for a particular iTunes account you can't change it to another until 90 days have passed. This is to prevent people cirumventing the restrictions of purchases to one account from consteantly swopping between accounts. You will have to wait for the 82 remaining days, and there is no workaround.

Apple IDs and iCloud)

After finally getting my imac from fedex, cannot get past the Update Apple ID and to use ICloud I have to change my app id. okay, but the red keeps saying that email address is already being used. is it because I am on the apple site on a netbook pc?

On the Update Apple ID screen to use ICloud, I get a red message that email address is already being used. It does not accept my email address? I do not understand what the screen is asking me. Is this because I am using the apple ID on a netbook for this note or what.
Is there a way to bypass this screen if I don't want to use ICloud? I don't want to screw up the original setup of my imac. If I could get to the desktop, then I would know what OS and programs are in my machine.

Hi, hopefully you've called Apple on this... you have 90 days free phone support.

I'm trying to set up my iPad2. I am entering my Apple ID and get a message that says "try another apple id, this ID is already being used. The only time I've used this Apple ID (my email), is when I bought a mac for my college student.

Thank you...I had selected the incorrect option to create an Apple ID....so backing up a few pages and doing as you stated worked!

I have four devices on one Apple ID, i have separate emails and phone numbers for each device but when I tried to add one to my iPod, it said that the email was already in use.

I have four devices on one Apple ID, i have seperate emails and phone numbers for each device but when I tried to add one to my iPod, it said that the email was already in use. I have tried many things and the only guess I have is that either someone else has this email as their iMessage but is fake or it wasn't taken off my old iPod when I reset it. Any ideas on what to do?

Thanks but that doesn't give me the information I need. I am putting an email on my ipod for people to contact me for iMessage and FaceTime but when I put the email in, it gives me an error saying that the email cannot be veirified because it is already in use. My Apple ID can be varified, just not the email that they will contact me with.

My husband has an iPad and I just got one for me. We both have the same e-mail address. The message I get when I try to set my new one up is that the Apple ID is already in use. How do I set up with our shared e-mail account

My husband has an iPad and I just got one for me. We both have the same e-mail address. The message I get when I try to initiate setup is that the Apple ID is already in use. Any ideas on how to complete the setup of the new iPad since we both share the e-mail account?

If you selected open a new Apple ID account, go back a step and enter use existing Apple ID.
You will have to set up a separate iCloud account or your iPads will mirror each other.

You will need to try changing the email address on the first account and see if you can then re-use it on a new account - you can try changing the email address via http://appleid.apple.com or by logging into it via the Store > View Account menu option on a computer's iTunes (if you don't have a spare email account then you can create one via http://gmail.com or http://hotmail.com)
