Welcome to the Apple Community.
Put in a request for another verification e-mail to be sent to you.
Start here, change your country if necessary and go to manage your account
Also check your Mail rules and filtering, the verification mail may be going to a junk folder or even being deleted altogether.

    Try checking your spam or junk mail folders.
    Try logging into https://appleid.apple.com/
    Are you able to login or recover information using the forgot account link?

    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.

  • 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.

  • I have not received my verification email for my Apple ID.

    I have not received my verification email for my Apple ID.
    I have waited a couple of days, re-checked email, re-checked network connection and checked spam folder still nothing.
    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 updated to iOS 8 on iPhone 5s and now iMessage will not verify my email. It has said "Verifyng" since yesterday, but has not sent a verification email. I checked my iCloud settings for that email address and it shows "pending".

        I updated to iOS 8 on iPhone 5s and now iMessage will not verify my email address to use to send/ receive messages. It has said "Verifyng" beside it in settings since yesterday, but has not sent a verification email. I have also tried Adding it as a new email address several times, but get the same outcome.  I can still send/ receive texts from my phone number, just not from the email address.
         In my iCloud settings under Contact Information for that email address and it shows "pending".  When I select "Resend Verification Email" I get "Cannot Connect to iCloud".

  • I'm not receiving my verification email to verify Apple ID. How do I get it?

    I guess this isn't a Mac book technical question but maybe someone can help me out. I'm trying to set up Icloud and it's asking me for my apple ID username and password which I know is correct. It then says that an email is being sent to verify but the email never comes. It is definately the right email adress because I just recieved an email today from Apple. Any suggestions?

    I'm also not receiving email verification's from apple , so are not able to download any apps or access accounts ,obviously i'm not the only one with this problem, so come on apple get it sorted as it is really frustrating
    and it seams to be a problem on your side.

  • I'm not receiving the verification email and the address is correct

    My I-Cloud setting (Ipad2, IOS 5) says the email has not been verified. I signed into my Apple ID and selected
    "send verification email" but I'm not receiving it.  The email address is correct and I've verified it.  Any ideas?

    Have you checked in the spam/junk folders?

  • With two Apple IDs I'd like to swap them logging in to iCloud, but I'm not receiving a verification email to proceed or iCloud isn't sending it

    ... can anyone help me?

    Not sure why it did not come through.  If you go to www.iCloud.com can you log in with either AppleID though?  That's the quickest way to see if the account was created and is active.
    If it does not appear that the account was created (or at least is not active), try sending a query to support, explaining that you never got the email.

  • 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.

  • Why am I not receiving a verification email for my Apple ID?

    I have tryed multiple emails and nothing works. Cannot verify my account if I don't get an email.

    Check your SPAM/junk mail folders.

  • I'm not receiving the AppleId email when I hit Forgot my password, how do I fix this?

    I can’t recall my password for a different iTunes Id and I’ve went to AppleId.apple.com, pressed the ‘forgot your password’ button, it brought me to a new page with my email, I’ve made sure that I was my email, I hit Email authentication, and then it brings me to a page that says: “ Email has been sent”, but I’m not receiving any email in my Gmail account. I’ve made sure that I have no filters for Apple or iTunes and checked my Spam, and Trash folders and I see nothing.

    Hi CoalBeans,
    Welcome to the Support Communities!  The resource below explains what to do if you do not receive the verification email for your Apple ID.
    If you didn't receive your verification or reset email - Apple Support
    http://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201455
    When you make certain updates to your Apple ID, we’ll send you an email to help you complete the update. For example, you might have reset your password, reset your security questions, or added a new email address to your account. If you can't find the email after we send it, these steps can help.
    Search for the email
    We'll send the email from "Apple," so you can quickly search for it. If it isn't in your inbox, check your folders. If a spam filter or email rule moved the email, it might be in the Spam, Junk, Trash, Deleted Items, or Archive folder.
    Make sure you're checking the correct email account
    If you're looking for a password reset email, make sure you're checking the correct email inbox. It will either be your primary Apple ID email address or a separate rescue email address that you added to your account. 
    If you're looking for a verification email, you can sign in to My Apple ID and review all the email addresses you have on file, including the one that you're trying to verify. If the email address is incorrect, you can update it and send another verification email.
    Resend the email
    To resend a reset email, repeat the steps to reset your password or security questions, and we'll send an email to your rescue or primary Apple ID email address.
    To resend the verification email, go to My Apple ID, select Manage your Apple ID, then sign in. Click Resend next to the email address that you want to verify, and we'll send an email to that address.
    Make sure that you're getting email
    If you're not getting any email, you might need to contact your email service provider for help. You can also use these steps to get help receiving email at OS X Mail or an iCloud email address. 
    Contact us
    Go to System Status and see if Apple ID is available. If you still can't find the reset email or verification email, contact Apple Support.

    Did you check your gmail account to see if it is working OK?
    Are you sure you didn't make a typo when you entered the gmail address as a change?
