I can't verify an email address for my Apple ID.

It is an ID I've had forever, that most of my iTunes and iPhone app accounts are linked to. After I updated to iOS7 (last night) now it won't recognize my yahoo email. I go to the manage my account site and click "verify this address" and nothing happens - the progress bar goes, but no email is sent for verification. I tried from my phone and from a MacBookAir. Ideas? Thx!

try another web browser then contact apple they may have something wrong with the account.

Can I use one email address for two apple devices? (One iPad2 and one iMac.)

I've been trying to find this information by searching the web and I can't find a good answer.
Can I use [email protected] for my "iPad AppleID" and use the same email address for my "iMac AppleID"?

your mail account has nothing to do with your apple id or device or even platform
you activate your mail account in your mail-app on your device, just pay attention you activate your account as IMAP and not as POP or Exchange
I suppose Verizon.net offers IMAP too?
citation from Wikipedia :
IMAP supports both on-line and off-line modes of operation. E-mail clients using IMAP generally leave messages on the server until the user explicitly deletes them. This and other characteristics of IMAP operation allow multiple clients to manage the same mailbox. Most e-mail clients support IMAP in addition to Post Office Protocol (POP) to retrieve messages; however, fewer e-mail services support IMAP. IMAP offers access to the mail storage. Clients may store local copies of the messages, but these are considered to be a temporary cache.

Someone is using my personal email address for their apple ID and I'm sick of it! I can't sign up for my own itunes account or anything using MY OWN email address. My email address is my property, not theirs.

I'm using their account and will continue to reset their password and settings until they either get the message or Apple do something about it and disable or migrate their account so that I can use MY OWN email address for my own purposes.
I don't want to be informed about Apple products and services for someone else on my email account.
I want to be able to use it MYSELF for iTunes
All I am asking you to do is migrate their apple ID to their alternate email account settings and free up my email address so that:
A. I can use it and B. I stop getting messages about their account history.
Either that or just cancel their account as they have no right to use my personal details.
Yes I could set up a new email address but WHY THE **** should I? I've been using this email account for years for personal stuff, it's not mu fault if someone can sign it up as an AppleID without me being able to confirm their sign up process!
Your move Apple, make it count.

Hi Sister Kate,
If you change the Apple ID you are using on an iPhone or other iOS device, there are several places you need to change it on the device. See this article -

After I updated to iOS 7, my iCloud account is showing the incorrect email address for my Apple ID but will not allow me to change it- it's gray and I can't click on it. How do I fix this?

If you change your email, you do not need to "change" your AppleID. Just edit your email(s) on your Apple ID by logging in to your AppleID account. You should always use the same AppleID for Apple Services (iCloud, iTunes etc) and multiple ID will cause problems and confusion in the future.
You can manage your Apple ID here:

HT204053 Can I use an icloud email address as the primary email address for an Apple ID?

Hi There
Can I use an icloud email address as the primary email address for an Apple ID?

Whenever you create a new icloud email it is an Apple ID, but if you previously had an Apple ID you cannot use the new email to replace the old one. You have to abandon the old accout and you will lose all the content you had with that account. But what I did was upload all my itunes to amazon cloud, these were the only purchases I had. I already bought books from kindle and I now rent movies from amazon instant video. Everytime I log in I use my icloud email and password. I just used it to sign in to support communities.
The notification that you posted about changing your Apple ID was present when I created my icloud email and made the change.

I changed my email address for my Apple ID but my phone doesn't recognize my new email it keeps asking for my password for my old email

I changed my email address for my Apple ID. When I want to use iCloud my iPhone doesn't seem to recognize my new email it keeps asking for my password for my old email. I can't update the new address it keeps defaulting to my old one.

Hello TirEoghain,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
First I would like you to try the instructions below to sign out of your iCloud account, and then sign in with your new Apple ID.
iOS 6 and later: Go to Settings > iCloud.
If you signed out before changing your Apple ID, enter your current Apple ID to sign in. The data from your iCloud account will download to your device.
If you're still signed in with your previous Apple ID:
Scroll down and tap Delete Account. Depending on what iCloud options are turned on, you'll be asked to confirm that you want to delete data from your device. To confirm, tap Delete. (If you're using iOS 7 and have Find My iPhone turned on, you'll be asked to enter the password for your previous Apple ID. Enter the password, then tap Turn Off.) The data will be deleted from your device, but not from iCloud.
Enter your current Apple ID to sign in. The data from your iCloud account will download again to your device.
Apple ID: What to do after you change your Apple ID
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5796
Change your Apple ID to the Apple ID you used previously. You shouldn't need to verify the email address.
Go to Settings > iCloud. Complete these steps only if the Find My [Device] setting is turned on:
Scroll down and tap Delete Account, then tap Delete to confirm.
Tap “Keep on My [Device]” or “Delete from My [Device].” In either case, your data remains in iCloud and will be updated on your device when you sign in to iCloud again.
Enter the password for your previous Apple ID.
Change your Apple ID to the new email address that you want to use. You'll need to verify the email address.
Return to Settings > iCloud and sign in with your new Apple ID.
iOS 7: If you're asked for the password to your previous Apple ID when signing out of iCloud

How do I create a new icloud email address for my apple id?

Hi there
How do I create a new icloud email address for my apple id? My original email address is associated with my previous employers.
When I send email from my Macbook, it seems as if I still work there, which is a problem.
I would like to use the email address that I created for my iPad.
When I login with my appleid (for my macbook) I keep getting the old company one, not the new one.
Is there any way of resolving this? I
Thanks
Kelvin

Welcome to the Apple community.
Once you have created a rescue address, you cannot delete it, nor can you change it to the same address as used by your ID. There are numerous providers you can get additional email addresses from, such as Hotmail, Yahoo, Google etc etc.

I changed the email address for my apple id online using "Manage Your Account." I changed it as well on my iPhone. How do I change the apple id on my mac? I've gone into system preferences - I cloud but can't see how to change my apple id.

You will have to sign out of iCloud, then sign in with the new Apple ID. Same with iTunes and the App Store.
