HT5622 Initial AppleID Setup: I never received the initial verification email from Apple.

I logged in and resent the verification email but again (few times and 48hrs later) still nothing.  Any ideas?

The information provided in your link didn't help me at all.
Here is what I found out:
I can log in to the appleid.apple.com,
I can click send verification link/button, (nothing happens if I do this)
I can change the email address by clicking edit,
If I change the email address to same email or to a short version of the same email, e.g. My email provider provides me with 2 email addresses for the same account one short ([email protected]) and one full ([email protected])
In both cases I receive an email notifying me of the change to my account but in both instances when I click send verification email link I never receive it...
I'm kinda lost at how their verification works...

  • I used my military (.mil) address as the backup for my appleID account, but now that I need to open the verification email from apple, the .mil doesnt allow me to open and verify that I am who I am?

    Hey Edgew7,
    Thanks for the question. The following resource may provide a solution:
    iOS 7: If you're asked for the password to your previous Apple ID when signing out of iCloud
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts5223
    3. Change your Apple ID temporarily
    If signing out and back in to iMessage or FaceTime didn't work, try these steps:
    1. Change your Apple ID to the Apple ID you used previously. You shouldn't need to verify the email address.
    2. Tap Settings > iCloud and try to sign out.
    3. Change your Apple ID to the new email address that you want to use. You'll need to verify the email address.
    4. Tap Settings > iCloud and sign in with the new Apple ID.
    Thanks,
    Matt M.

  • Users are receiving the invalid response email from the Workflow mailer

    Hi All,
    The problem we are getting in the workflow is that when a user receives a response notification and the user responds to it then the user are receiving the invalid response email.
    The error in the email sent back is
    Error Message : Ora-01001 invalid cursor
    Error stack: &MAIL_STACK_ERROR
    I am unable to replicate the issue in test instance so that we can try to find some solution.
    Please can some one help me out it is really a high priority for us currently
    Thanks,
    Varun

    This does not happen for all the responses, it happens with some responses but it continues to happen untill we bounce the workflow services.
    Regarding the conditions under which this is caused we are not sure of it, if we know under what coonditionns this happens then may be we can try for the solution.
    Thanks,

  • I keep receiving verification emails from apple that are not from me

    Hi, I've received more than 20 emails from [email protected] in the same day to verify my email address, the messages are in French, and according to google translate:
    "Dear (Not me),
    You entered (my Gmail address missing the dots) as contact email address for your Apple ID. To complete the process, we need to verify that it is your email address. Just click the link below and log in using your Apple ID and password.
    Should I be worried? Did someone access my account? I changed my password but received the same email later.
    The last email was different, it say, according to google translate:
    "Find My iPhone was disabled in iPhone (Not me but same as above)..."

    Hey there Mr.224,
    It sounds like you are getting emails from a sender that appears to be Apple, but with information that clearly is not yours. I recommend a couple of things here. First log into your account at http://appleid.apple.com, and see if the email address from the message you got is listed in your Alternate Email address. If so, and you do not want it there, delete the email address.
    If it is not there, then take a look at this article with informatin about identifying Phishing emails:

  • One of the best scam emails from "apple" I have ever seen

    I received a very convincing email from [email protected] asking me to up date my details. It was very soft and apple like so I started to input my details, then it asked for credit card updates, mothers maiden name and CVV number of my card. Turns out you don't even need to log in, it takes you directly to this page even if you just click sign in! I'm worried that others may comply so here is the link!
    DO NOT ENTER ANY DETAILS ITO THIS AS THEY WILL TAKE YOU ENTIRE IDENTITY AND ROB YOU!
    http://apple.itunes.myaccountmanager.com/.app/itunescon****/connect.apple/WebObj ects/iTunesConnect.html
    Let me know if this was helpful! Remember pleased don't upload your details. I changed my Apple ID and password just in case.

  • HT5622 seems like every 3-4 days I get an email from Apple saying your password has been reset,if you didn't change it go to etc'

    ipad 4
    ALmost every few days I get an email from Apple saying your password has been changed.... if you didn't change please go to Apple and change your id password
    I have had to do this for the 7th time in 4 weeks

    If you are receiving e-mail messages that indicate that someone is trying to reset your Apple ID password, they may be phishing scams. Do not click any links in those e-mail messages, and if you make the mistake of doing so, do not provide your current Apple ID password on the page you are directed to.
    Unfortunately, in this case, there's nothing to be done except treat those messages the same way you would any other spam.
    The other possibility is that someone is actually trying to reset your Apple ID password. This may be due to a malicious attack, but more likely, it's just someone who thinks your Apple ID is actually theirs (due to a typo, faulty memory or something similar) and is trying to "regain" access. In any case, this is merely an annoyance, but you can put an end to it by enabling two-factor authentication on your Apple ID. This will require an additional piece of information that only you will possess in order to even start the password reset process.
    If you are actually seeing your password getting changed, and are having to reset it yourself to regain access, you are being hacked. This could be because your password is not strong enough to withstand a brute-force attack by a botnet. It could also be because the attacker already has access to your e-mail address, and is able to intercept the reset e-mail and complete the reset process. Because of that danger, you should change the password for the e-mail account associated with your Apple ID. You should also change the password for your Apple ID, making sure that it is a strong password, and enable two-factor authentication as mentioned above.

  • Has anyone received the enterprise beta approval from apple yet?

    my company applied for the program when it was announced but i cannot find anything to show that apple has started sending approvals.
    i called apple about 2 weeks ago, spoke to a Customer Relations person who said they'd be announcing it "soon" and that they're "in the process of reviewing applications".
    it's almost may, and the 2.0 software is going to be released in june. not much time to test the 2.0 software if you ask me. it would be nice for IT companies, such as the one i work for, to get a jump on how to implement and understand the 2.0 software before the masses start calling us for support.

    ifone_lover,
    Any company that has been contacted would be under a pretty strict NDA. The March 6 event mentions some of it was already being tested at a few companies at that time.
    I would not expect answers on a public discussions forum such as Apple Discussions.
    Hope this helps,
    Nathan C.

  • I forgot my Apple ID password and security questions, plus I don't receive the "I forgot" email

    I forgot my Apple ID password.  I don't remember my security question answers. I have apps on my iphone that I can't update because of this.  So I created a new Apple ID and downloaded some apps. (So I have apps on my iphone from two different Apple IDs). 
    What I've tried:
    I never receive the "I forgot" email - tried it multiple times. I have checked spam folders, recently deleted - checked it all, not there.
    I can't delete apps from the old Apple ID and download them with the new because it will delete information from the app, such as game highscores.
    I have money on the old Apple ID and would like to be able to use it. If someone can please give me a solution or a support number that can help my situation. It would be greatly appreciated.    -  I have called support once but no luck.

  • I recieved a scam email from apple. then sent me the same email using my own email account. how do I report this to apple. can't find any contact details.

    hi over the past month have received maybe 5 scam emails from apple.
    I opened one the other day cause I thought well maybe it is from apple.
    went through the steps and it was  amazed at how well they did at copying apple website. you could even go to the apple shop page from their page!
    what set me off that it was fake was that I tried to open the other apple pages along the top and it wouldn't let me. so I opened my own apple page and logged in. and realised that they don't ask for your bank details in your Apple ID account.
    anyways so now what has happened is I got an email today " from myself" with this same scam email. it is as if they have hacked my email account and sending me these emails. I want to report this to apple but am unable to find any contact details apart from call back options. does any one have any advice on this.

    I've had that same exact issue, I received the first e-mail claiming to be from Apple last night (though over the past week I've received two other scam e-mails from different addresses claiming that my bank transactions have been aborted). It said it was from my own address, and I checked it closely to make sure it wasn't a spoof account but found it was indeed my own e-mail address. Five minutes ago I changed my password, and I have just now received a second e-mail exactly the same, still coming from my own account. My best guess at an explanation is that it may have been sent before I changed my password and there was just a delay in the message sending, resulting in it coming through after changing my password.
    I've now forwarded the e-mail on as an attachment to the [email protected] address, however this still doesn't help me with regards to stopping these e-mails. It concerns me that even though I changed my password they still possibly have access to my account. I tried checking my account activity but as opening the mail app on my iPhone is considered as a log in and I check it almost twice an hour, it's impossible to tell which could possible be an intruder logging in.

  • 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 received an email from "Apple Alerts" datareapplesecurity@apple.co.uk Subject: Pending Purchase Notification Your AppleID was used to buy the "H

    I received an email from "Apple Alerts" <[email protected]>
    Subject: Pending Purchase Notification
    Your AppleID was used to buy the "H&C" from the iTunes Store on a Personal Computer or device that had not previously been linked to that AppleID.
    This purchase was initiated from the following IP: 217.149.115.181 (Volgograd, Russia).
    If you made this buying, you can overlook this email. It was emailed to you just to warn you if you did not make the purchase by your own.
    If you did not make the operation, we encourage you to verify your AppleID:
    Does anyone know if this is a scam?  Sound like a scam to me?  Thanks Lu

    It's not from Apple, it's a phishing attempt to try and get your account and payment details - forward it to Apple : [email protected] , and then delete it.
