HT4528 Never receive the verification email

It's been over an hour and just setup my account and I can't download any apps yet because I never received the verification email. Why?

I was forced by iTunes to change my Apple ID password a couple of months ago.  Since then I have been trying to find a way to receive the verification email to no avail.
Today, I did manage to change the email destination to my home email instead of hotmail, but have still not received anything.
I try to access https://appleid.apple.com in Firefox only to be led to a page that says "No instance available".  No luck with IE or Safari either.
I downloaded OS5 for my iPod touch, but cannot activate an iCloud ID since I cannot sign in to my Apple ID to begin with. 
I've tried to sign in via iTunes as well as the App Store and the Apple Store but nothing seems to work.
I'm at my wits end and am about a hair's breadth away from doing violence to my MacBook Pro!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    I never receive the verification email

    I have the same problem -- no email arrives when I try to reset my password.
    I'm syncing my iPhone 5 to iTunes and keep getting messages about all the content that will not sync because "not authorized."
    So I try to login to my Apple ID
    - password is wrong
    - follow the link to reset password
    - chose "send email" but no email arrives (I even check 'junk' folder to be sure)
    - go back to reset password and try "Answer security questions"
    - says my DoB is wrong but I'm sure DoB is correct and there's no way forward
    So what is the solution? Re-purchase all the content that won't sync?

  • HT4436 I never received the verification email although it claims it was sent to my email.

    Hi,
    I have a question about my iCloud account... Although it was saying a verification email had been sent to my email address, I clidked the "open mail" but there's no email from icloud. I tried several times but it's always the same. Would you please help?
    Thank you

    Login at http://AppleID.apple.com/ and check which email address is associated with your AppleID. Make sure you are checking this email account for the verification email, and that you have checked in your spam folder.

  • I am not receiving the verification email when trying to add an email account

    I am not receiving the verification email when trying to add an email account to facetime and iMessage. Is there something else I can do?

    Hi,
    I don't ever remember getting an email when Adding an account.
    Apple seems to verify it some other way (a self test to see if it is valid ? an actual email ?)
    I tried adding an older @mac.com account that is not a valid email (gained when MobileMe was the Apple service and the @Mac.com registration was used for iChat names).
    I then tried  to add a Yahoo one.
    This got past the first part and said an email has been sent.
    As you say this has never arrived.
    ( checked the web Site for Yahoo Mail as well as my Mail App.)
    In each case I also checked the Spam and Junk folders in both places.
    I then tried an iCloud ID.
    (FaceTime seems to treat the Original Apple ID and the iCloud issued email as separate IDs)
    I did not get and email (Although it said it was sent) I did get a Pop up for the FaceTime app asking if I wanted to add an email and a second for the actual email itself.  (It turned out it added an @me.com email also issued by iCloud before the @icloud.com was issued.
    This is much the way iMessages adds emails when you add the emails to  an iPhone, the Mac version gets pop ups.
    I recently had something similar in Messages that might be related.
    In Messages 7 (Mountain Lion) it seemed it could be any Apple ID that was used.
    In Messages 8 it seems this has to be an iCloud linked one.
    The @mac.com one I used above could not be added to iMessages either when I tried it about two months ago.
    It might be one I have removed the creating/Recovery email so that i could create another Apple ID.
    The name continues to work in Messages as an AIM valid screen name but I could not add it as the iMessages account and got sent to iCloud to "register" it but ran into problems that I have not sorted out yet.
    EDIT.
    Checked the Apple ID site and the @mac.com email I used has no linked Alternative/recovery email.

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Ask the recipient to check Mail rules and filtering, the verification mail may be going to a junk folder or even being deleted altogether.
    Also see if you are able to resend the email by following these steps.
    If the problem persists, select the content which is causing a problem and use the 'Report a problem' button in Your Purchase History using your computer.

    After two years? No, not likely you are going to get it. Try contacting iTunes support: https://getsupport.apple.com/Issues.action

  • Cannot purchase songs on iTunes. After I enter Apple ID and password, Prompt says I need toed to verify my Apple ID. I enter my password again and never get the verification email.

    Cannot purchase songs on iTunes. After I enter Apple ID and password, Prompt says I need toed to verify my Apple ID. I enter my password again and never get the verification email although my Apple ID and email are correct? Whats up with that?

    from this support article:
    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.

  • I cannot access my Add-ons Collections account that I just registered, and I never received the confirmation email.

    I created an account, username "dleemaas" with the email address "[email protected]". I never received the confirmation email, and when I try to have the website send a password reset email, I do not receive that either; I am assuming that I must have mistyped something into the email address field when creating the account. How can I access my account?

    There's no link to contact the board administrator, as the help section at that forum suggests to do, and I can't login in the first place in order to post a question to ask how I'm supposed to be able to access my account. Any suggestions?

  • I don't receive the verification email when I try to sign in to the developer portal. What I can do?

    When I (or anyone of my coworkers) try to sign in, the developer program asks us to verify my email, when I click on "Send Invitation" I don't receive any email. I receive other emails from apple (for example, the forgot password email), How do I contact support or get help to solve this problem?
    Thanks,
    JTSonic

    After trying with costumer support finally I recieved the verification email, I will write down the steps I followed:
    1. I have been invited to join to a developer program for my company.
    2. I created an apple id account.
    3. When I was invited, I tried to sign in with my new apple id.
    4. Whenever I tried to sign in, Apple asked me to verify my email.
    5. After I pressed serveral times the "Send Verification Email", nothing happened.
    6. I opened iTunes from my iMac and I signed in with my new apple id.
    7. They asked me to fill some data (including the payment information).
    8. After filling the payment information, I returned to the developer program and tried to sign in again.
    9. Apple asked one more time for the email verification, I hit again the "Send Email Verification" button.
    10. This time, the email verification button worked and a new screen saying that the verification email was sent appeared and then, I could sign in into my account.
    That's all, you just to add your personal data in iTunes and then try to verify your email again. Hope this helps someone.

  • Never received BrowserLab verification email

    I tried like an hour and a half ago, and never got my verification email. I've checked spam, logged in and out of my email, etc. and nothing showed up. Even chatted with someone in tech support, and no luck there either. I've tried to get the verification email re-sent several times, and I never got it.

    Please check your private messages for my response on this issue.  Sorry to hear you're having trouble.
