  • 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.

    Welcome to the Apple Support Community!

    I have multiple Apple ID"s however one of them I can not verify the email address associated with it since it no longer exists.   So I can no use downloads/purchases that I did under that email/Apple ID.   Help

    It's not currently possible to merge accounts, nor to transfer content from one account to another account. Are you able to access your old accounts via this page and change their email addresses : http://appleid.apple.com ?

  • Can I change my verified primary email address associated with my apple id? I don't want to change my apple id as I have music/apps associated with it.  My current email will be changing soon.

    Can I change my verified primary email address that is currently associated with my apple id?  I don't want to change my apple id because I have music and apps assoicated with it.  I tired following some of the posts that shows going to an apple dialog that allows you to update your apple id and primary email separately, but when I try doing it I get a dialog that says I can update my apple id and my primary email.  I don't want to change my apple id only my primary email.  Anyone have any suggestions?  That email is going away soon.  Thanks for any help.

    Did you change the email for the Apple ID or did you create a new Apple ID? A new Apple ID cannot be used with content that was bought using a different Apple ID.

    I have the same problem. FaceTime works fine on my iMac but when trying to use FaceTime on my Macbook Air, I have the same issue you describe.

  • Why can't FaceTime verify my email address on my Mac but it works fine on my iPhone?

    I can receive and make facetime calls on my iphone but it won't work on my Macbook Pro. It used to work fine and I haven't changed my email address or password. It has now automatically logged my out and won't verify my email address to log me back in. Does anyone know how I can fix it?

    chloel18,
    I have been troubleshooting this issue myself for over 3 weeks now.  I have looked through 20+ forums searching for answers.  I know your pain. Here's what you need to do:
    You need to call Apple.  The problem is NOT on your end!  I spoke with an Apple representative and they said that it is a "registration issue" and that THEY need to reset security settings.  I waited 14 minutes but the representative found the issue then reset it and I was able to sign in.
    Call 1-800-275-2273 (It's free in the US or on Skype if you're in Europe!)  When you call, you'll get the standard automated secretary.  DO NOT SAY ANYTHING.  If you say anything, you will be told that you either need to purchase a protection plan for $19.99 or literally "end the call".  Just stay on the line until you're asked if you wish to speak with a representative.  Do that and you'll be connected (for free).  They will ask for you Macbook Pro serial number and a "Customer Code" if you have one.  Tell them how long that you've had this issue and they'll confirm your Apple ID.
    Once they confirm your Apple ID, they reset everything on their end and you should be set.  Make sure that you are able to send messages/make calls before hanging up.

  • My daughter has an iPod and FaceTime has stopped working as she is not able to verify her email address please can you help.

    My daughter has an iPod and FaceTime has stopped working as she is not able to verify her email address please can you help.

    As long as you can't get a hold of the device, you can't do anything more than talking to your daughter about it.
    Erasing the device could also be an option to keep her from using apps you don't want her to have on her device.
    Try talking first

  • When I try to use FaceTime on my Macbook Air, I try to verify the email I want people to call me with, and it says verified, but soon an message comes up that says "Could not verify the email address. Please check your network connection and try again."

    So our school lets us use Macbook Airs for the school year, and it has facetime on it. I know facetime isn't blocked because like everyone else is using it. So I decide to give it a try. I click the icon, it says enter your apple ID. I dont have one, so I click to make one, and do so. I then enter my apple ID and click next. The screen reads "People will call you using your email address. What email address would you like to use?" I enter my email address in the box below the message, and then go to my email and click the link, and sign in, thus verifying the email. I go back to the facetime window, and click next. At the top it says Verified, but when I click next it doesn't go on to the next step, it simply blacks out the next button so that I can not click it, and after a few minutes a message comes up that says "Could not verify the email address. Please check your network connection and try again."
    So that is the issue, please help!!!!!
    *Note-I repeat that I know it is not blocked by the school because everyone else uses it just fine.*

    Hello BassoonPlayer,
    Since you are using one of the the school's Macbooks, it is quite possible that the time and date are not properly set on the computer that you are using.  FaceTime will not work if you do not have the proper time zone set up for the location that you are in.  This past week, there were a two other Macbook users I've helped by simply telling them to set the Date/Time properly.  By the way, you described your problem very well, which makes it easier for us to help you.  Hope this solves your problem -- if not, post back and I can suggest other remedies.

  • How can I change the email address on my account?

    My account is tied to an old email address which hasn't existed for about a decade, how do I change this?

    Hello Chris,
    This can be done through our Apple ID site.
    Apple ID: Changing the email address you use for your Apple ID
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5621
    If your primary email address for your Apple ID does not end in @icloud.com, @me.com, or @mac.com
    Note: If your Apple ID and your primary email address are currently the same, changing the primary email address will also change your Apple ID. If your Apple ID and your primary email address are different, changing your primary email address will not change your Apple ID. 
    Follow these steps to change the primary email address for your Apple ID:
    Go to My Apple ID (appleid.apple.com), click "Manage your Apple ID," and sign in.
    With the Name, ID, and Email Address drawer selected, click Edit next to Apple ID and Primary Email Address.
    Enter your new email address.
    Ensure that the email address you enter:
    Is one that you regularly use since this will be the primary email for your account
    Is a valid email address
    Is not already associated with another Apple ID you have
    Is not an address that ends in @mac.com. @me.com, or @icloud.com
    You will be asked to verify the email address to confirm that you can access it and that it belongs to you. When you receive the verification email, click the Verify Now link and sign in using your Apple ID and password to complete the confirmation. 
    Cheers,
    Allen
