I can't verify my e-mail.

Hey everybody, I didn't really want to have to go this far as I am pretty stubborn and like giving stuff a try myself but I just can't get this done. I can't verify my e-mail no matter how many different ways I try. Here is how this started:
I made my I-tunes account on my iphone and put a $50 gift card on it because I didn't want to use my debit card. I then tried to download a game I wanted, it told me my account wasn't verified so I opened up g-mail and clicked 'verify now' it gave me the error message saying "Your request could not be completed." "This account is no longer associated with appleID".
I thought of this as nothing and decided to just re-open my e-mail and try again to nothing different, same error message. I tried this for a few minutes over and over thinking that it was just messed up or something, but it wasn't.
I ended up making 4 different e-mails and 2 diffrent apple-ids and none of this worked. I would ALWAYS get the same message no matter what I tried.
Somebody please help me, I don't want to lose my $50.

I have been having a lot of difficulty sorting this issue related to the new policy that Apple IDs need to be in the format of an email address (ie [email protected]). I have an older nickname Apple ID and new devices can't use that ID. One of the annoying situations is like the previous post. I change the e-mail addrerss associated with the Apple ID and Apple sends an email to that address to verify the change. The content of the email is as follows:
You've entered [email protected] as the contact email address for your Apple ID. To complete the process, we just need to verify that this email address belongs to you. Simply click the link below and sign in using your Apple ID and password.

Wondering why you got this email?
It's sent when someone adds or changes a contact email address for an Apple ID account. If you didn't do this, don't worry. Your email address cannot be used as a contact address for an Apple ID without your verification.

The first link appears in the e-mail as "Verify Now>" and behind that is the very long URL shown above (I did a cut and paste from the email). So clicking on the link does nothing. Pasting it into a browser window generates an error. So the verify step in the process doesn't complete.
Anyone else had this problem and if so what did you do about it? Apple seems to have bungled this change in Apple ID format and there's no good way to resolve it.

Can't verify the e-mail sent to set up iCloud on my devices

When setting up my iCloud account I enter an erroneus e-mail and now can't verify that account to set up iCloud on my devices. Even if I delete the iCloud account the Apple ID account comes linked to that erroneous e-mail and can't continue on the iCloud account set up. How can I delete that erroneous e-mail account?

Can't verify my e-mail address.

I asked a question and was told I would need to verify my e-mail address by clicking on a link in an e-mail I would receive. I received the e-mail, and then clicked on the link. All seemed OK, until later when I went back to the site to see if my question was answered, there was a message that my e-mail could not be verified. There was no help given as to what to do about that or what to do next. I am at a loss.....and expect I will not be able to get this message thru either.

So, do I have to ask my original question again? Apparently my e-mail has now been "verified" .......

How I can verify with my apple id? any help appreciated

"Mail can't verify the identity of" after 10.6.4 update.

So our Exchange 2003 server uses a wildcard certificate so we can protect multiple resources without buying 10 different SSL certs. It's been working perfectly so far, until I updated to 10.6.4. Now I get the following error. I've even deleted the account in Mail.app and re-added and it still won't take the wildcard SSL. The error is:
"Mail can't verify the identity of "mail.xxxxxxxxxxx.net" +(our domain)+ "An SSL error has occurred and a secure connection to the server cannot be made."

Great. I've done nothing else and it has resolved itself. I hate when that happens because I can't conclude what the final fix was. I can only guess that accepting the wildcard SSL fixed it since that was the last thing I did.
So, I can only conclude at this point that accepting the SSL and rebooting(?) fixed the issue.

Mail can't verify the identity of "server.domain.edu"

Mail gave this error when trying to send or receive email even though the server is trusted and the certificate is in fact valid and verifiable.
I had this problem and couldn't find a good explanation on any of these discussions. Most suggestions that worked involved disabling SSL, which isn't an option for me. Ultimately I found an explanation on VeriSign's site via SSL Shopper:
http://www.sslshopper.com/ssl-certificate-not-trusted-error.html
In my case, using VeriSign, I was missing the intermediate certificate. I followed the SSL Shopper link to VeriSign <https://knowledge.verisign.com/support/ssl-certificates-support/index?page=con tent&id=AR657>, chose the type of Secure Server certificate I needed <http://www.verisign.com/support/verisign-intermediate-ca/secure-site-intermedi ate/index.html> and then copied and pasted it into a plain text file, adding a .cer suffix.
Once the intermediate cert was created, I just imported it into my Login Keychain via Keychain Access and all was well.

Same for me - Mail 4.2 and SL 10.6.2.
The problem (as far as I can tell) is that the Mail.app is somehow trying to use the wrong certificate - in my case the account is imap.mymail.com and Mail.app is trying to connect to this server by using the certificate associated with imap.google.com - and of course there is a host name mismatch.

Just bought my ipad. I can't verify my apple id, because i entered the wrong e-mail address I set up. How can i correct my apple id to my right e-mail address?

If you are talking about your Apple ID - go to Settings>Store>Apple ID - tap the incorrect ID and sign out. Then sign in with the correct ID.

Mail Can't Verify!

Okay, I still get the ole' "Mail can't verify the identity of ------". I hit Show Certificate and choose ALWAYS TRUST but this keeps happening over and over again.
Anybody?

Hi mabletonga;
Love your little video!!!!!!
Thanks, Man! That's me when I'm working on a Windows PC but not when I'm home on my Mac!
No problem.
I sincerely apologize if I was 'RUDE' because I get like sometimes. I was just becoming tired of all the people that just complain in their post and from the replies of people that THINK they KNOW how to *FIX IT!* Like my first post to you was just *OFF THE WALL* and I knew that it was not accurate. I want to see if you would reply with more information without me trying to prod you for it. But your reply to my post just hit the wrong nerve. So Sorry.
Okay, ... my choices are Show Certificate, Cancel or Connect.
Well now, this is what I'm talking about because *IT'S ALL IN THE DETAILS!* I really do appreciate it and now that I have more information, I can find the reason why.
*+_"If there is a reason; there is a purpose because without a purpose, a reason would not exist!"_+*
Here's the purpose for the reason to exist ...
*+"If your mail server uses an SSL certificate that is signed by an unknown authority, Mail displays a message indicating that it can’t verify the identity of the mail server, because it can’t verify the server’s certificate. Although you can connect to the mail server, Mail will continue to warn you about the server’s unverified certificate each time you open Mail. To stop the message from appearing, you need to indicate that you trust the mail server’s certificate."+*
But you've said, *"Been There, Done That, Didn't Work So What's Next?"*
*+_"What we require now is a feat of linguistic legerdemain and a degree of intrepidity."_+*
When I choose Show Certificate there is a check box to click “Always trust “Washington.hostforweb.net” when connecting to “mail.xxxxxxxxxxx.com”... I normally choose Always Trust for When using this certificate ...
And I assume that this means you JUST click on the check box, right?
... Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) and X.509 Basic Policy.
Hmm, well you're NOT going to be very happy about this BUT and this is a *REALLY BIG BUT* all you need to do is JUST click the check box and *NOTHING ELSE!* Then ...
Then I hit Connect and I’m asked for my password. I enter it and then off the mail goes.
... and "Wish Upon A Star" that you'll *NEVER EVER* see it again!
Laziness had me avoid typing all of this before.
And my laziness MADE me a Computer Geek so I could sit on my BUTT all day!
Sorry. Hope this is more clear.
No problem and thanks again for your time to 'Spell Out' for this Old Man. Yes Sir, this may be enough to clear up your issue but let me know how is goes.
Good Luck!
Later ...

FaceTime HD app won't go any further than verifying my e-mail address. After it is verified nothing happens, no contact list no links on page. It restarts then ask again to verify my e-mail. It returns a verified then cycles again. Can't make a video cal

Does the ext directory have the php_oci8.dll? In the original steps the PHP dir is renamed. In the given php.in the extension_dir looks like it has been updated correctly. Since PHP distributes php_oci8.dll by default I reckon there would be a very good chance that the problem was somewhere else. Since this is an old thread I don't think we'll get much value from speculation.

How can I add/change e-mail account password? How can I test the account?

For several days I have been unable to send or receive messages using Thunderbird. Works OK with another mail client. This problem started right after installing a security update 24.4.0 (20140316131045). I went to Options/Security/Passwords and deleted all the saved passwords. When I try to download messages, however, the system is not asking me to enter a new password. Thunderbird regrettably lacks a "Test" button to test access to the accounts.
Any suggestions?

If you're not being prompted for the password Thunderbird is unable to reach the server.
Verify your firewall settings and make sure Thunderbird isn't blocked.
You can easily verify your password using webmail.

Can you customize what folder MAIL goes to when adding attachments?

Can you customize what folder MAIL goes to when adding attachments?
My friend has 2 email addresses for businesses.
He has invoices in folders for both, and wants to set up the Mac like this:
When he writes from one email address and attaches documents - he want the Mac always to go to the corresponding folder for that company of his. Same for the other email address...
Make sense?
Can this be done?
Thanks in advance....

Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
The purpose of the test is to determine whether your problem is caused by third-party system modifications that load automatically at startup or login.
Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Boot in safe mode* and log in to the account with the problem. The instructions provided by Apple are as follows:
Shut down your computer, wait 30 seconds, and then hold down the shift key while pressing the power button.
When you see the gray Apple logo, release the shift key.
If you are prompted to log in, type your password, and then hold down the shift key again as you click Log in.
*Note: If FileVault is enabled under OS X 10.7 or later, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can’t boot in safe mode. Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including wireless networking on certain Macs. The next normal boot may also be somewhat slow.
The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin. Test while in safe mode. Same problem? After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.

Can I change the e-mail address on this account?

Let's say I'm trying to setup iCloud on my iPhone. In order to do so, I need to "verify my account."
To do this, I need to check my e-mail. The e-mail which I have had for my iPhone has been "hacked," therefore I can't check that e-mail. I've been trying to figure out how to change my e-mail for my iPhone, but couldn't. I would rather not have to make a new account. Is there any way to change to change my e-mail?

Try tapping on the id in Settings > iTunes & App Stores on your devices (Settings > Store if they aren't on iOS 6+) and then log back in and see if that 'refreshes' the account on them.

TS3988 How can I Verify My iCloud Account when my Apple ID is no longer tied to a valid email address?

The Apple ID I set up originally was (stupidly!) my email address for a company that no longer exists. iCloud will only send a verification email to that email address, so I can't verify my account and access iCloud. Is there a work-around for this? Thanks

Welcome to the Apple Community.
Verification mail is sent to your alternate address, make sure you have set one up.

I can't verify my e-mail.
