HT4479 After not receiving the Verification Email i realized the email had a typo/error. How do i correct it when it will not let me back in because i have not verified ?

When creating a new ID i incorrectly entered the email address. How do i correct it when i cannot sign in because its telling me i must first verify

Then, if there's any data on the drive that you want to keep, you have to back up before you do anything else -- assuming it's still possible.
Basically you have three options:
1. Install a copy of the Mac OS on an external hard drive, boot from it, and copy the data from the internal drive.
2. Start the problem Mac in FireWire target mode (command-T at startup) and connect it to a working Mac with a FireWire cable. The internal drive will mount as a FireWire device.
3. Remove the internal drive and mount in an external enclosure on another Mac.
Once you've backed up, follow the sequence in the support article linked below. The article is somewhat outdated. Where it refers to booting from an installation disc, you should boot from your recovery partition (if running Lion) by holding down the key combination command-R at the chime.
Mac OS X: Gray screen appears during startup

    I either do not receive a verification email while trying to set up (despite requesting it) or, on the one occasion I did, there is nowhere/no link to  verify-what do I do about this?

    log in to appleid.apple.com make sure your email is verified.if not, send yourself a link. if you are using AOL, sometimes you wont get it.
    check your spam folders also.

  • Not receiving icloud verification email, have checked spam etc..phone is just saying account not verified, the address was linked to my husbands account but has been removed.

    Not receiving icloud verification email, have checked spam etc..phone is just saying account not verified, the address was linked to my husbands account but has been removed, prior to this it was saying it was already in use.
    If i change to an old address it works fine but all my apple equipment uses a current googlemail address and dont want numerous ids
    My itunes account/icloud account only shows this address, albeit on icloud its not verified
    My husbands accounts dont have this address anywhere
    Where is the verification mail going????

    All...sorted so thought i owed it to you all to update...
    As suggested on numerous sites it was in my spam folder....but because i am using googlemail it was in the Googlemail Spam on my phone and online google account, the spam wasnt getting to my outlook account (where i was looking for it!!!)
    As soon as i opened it there they were all 38 verification emails !!!!!
    Hope this helps

    I can receive apple emails when resetting password, Apple support etc, why can't I receive the verification one?
    Help would be appreciated, thank you

    Try requesting that it be sent again by logging into your account on http://appleid.apple.com - from http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5622
    How do I verify my Apple ID by email?
    Simply follow the link in the verification email that says "Verify Now." Sign in with your current Apple ID and password, then click Verify Address. You can also verify by signing in at My Apple ID. You'll receive an email prompting you to verify.

  • I received "Not Enough Storage" and my iPad couldn't be backed up because there is not enough iCloud storage available.  I can't go to settings or power down because the touch screen isn't responding.  I did buy more iCloud storage with my phone,

    I received a message stating Not Enough Storage.  This iPad cannot be backed up because there is not enough iCloud storage available.  The touch screen will not let me select settings to correct this.  I did purchase more storage via my iPhone, but I still cannot get my iPad working.

    Try this.
    Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.

    At the time of this post, there seems to be a problem with iMessage and Facetime but only some users are affected.

  • HT204053 Seems my iCloud password is not the same as my iTunes.  Where do I go to reset my iCloud password?  I cannot access anything when prompted to put in my iCloud password because I do NOT KNOW it.  Thanks!

    Seems my iCloud password is not the same as my iTunes.  Where do I go to reset my iCloud password?  I cannot access anything when prompted to put in my iCloud password because I do NOT know it.  Thanks!  I've used my iTunes password for everything else Apple does and would like to use the same one for my iCloud.

    Do the following:
    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 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).

    I recently got the new iPhone 5c I used icloud to back everything up from my 4s to my new 5c.  Now, I keep getting a pop up that says Continue Restoring?  (This iPhone has not been backed uprecently because it has not finished being restored. Would you like to finish downloading any remaining purchases and media before backing up, or delete them along with any app date?)
    I seleted to finish downloading because I didn't want to lose anything.  It still will not finish downloading and I have tried this several times.
    What do I need to do to that I can get my iphone to back up and so that I can install the new iOS?

    Hello there, Brandifoote24.
    The following Knowledge Base article offers up an explanation of what you're error signifies:
    iCloud: Understanding Backup alert messages
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS4576
    "This iPhone has not been backed up recently because it has not finished being restored. Would you like to finish downloading any remaining purchases and media before backing up, or delete them along with any app data?"
    This message is displayed if your iOS device has been trying to complete a restore for more than three days. This can occur if your restore has been interrupted due to network connectivity issues or some other problem occurs.
    Being that this is the case, you would want to go back to the article it seems you were referred to us from and try to restore from your icloud backup again:
    iCloud: Troubleshooting restoring an iCloud backup
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS4036
    How do I restore an iCloud backup if my device is already set up for use?
    You'll need to erase all data and settings from your device, so first confirm that you have an iCloud backup to restore:
    Go to Settings > iCloud > Storage & Backup > Manage Storage, then tap the name of your device to view a list of iCloud backups.
    Check the date of the backup you want to restore, because you'll be restoring only what iCloud backed up on that date.
    After confirming that an iCloud backup is available, follow these steps:
    Connect your device to a power source and make sure that it is connected to the Internet via Wi-Fi.
    Follow the instructions for restoring your iOS device from an iCloud backup, which include making sure that your device is using the latest version of iOS.
    If the issue persists, then I would troubleshoot Wi-Fi using the following article:
    iOS: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections

  • TS1702 When I try to update an App I am getting my old email address (which no longer works) and when I put in its password it says password or username is wrong. but it does not give me an option to put in my new user name. How can I correct this.

    When I try to update an App I am getting my old email address (which no longer works) and when I put in its password it says password or username is wrong. but it does not give me an option to put in my new user name. How can I correct this.

    What you are getting is the AppleID (AppleID can be an email adress) used at the time of the purchase of this app.  It is an identifiant allowing Apple to link your purchase to your account.
    If you want to manage associated email, you can go at https://appleid.apple.com but the AppleID could never be modified.  
    I do not know if in your case, it is just that you no longer use your old email address or that you actually a 2 AppleID.  In any case, you will have to remember the password related to the account used for your purchase.  If you don't, just use the link above to try to retreive your password.

    Have you tried a 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.
