I had to restore my iPad to factory settings and now I can't reconnect my icloud email to FaceTime or iMessages as the verification email never comes through what should I do

Yesterday I had to make a trip to the local Apple store as my iPad needed to be restored to factory settings. I came home trying to set up my iMessages and FaceTime but I can't reconnect it with my icloud email as I send a verification email each time and it never arrives. What should I do?

Yes, I am using the same ID on both devices.  I also logged out of the iTunes application and back in but still get this same message.  "The Apple ID you entered couldn't be found or your password was incorrect.  Plese try again."
I have another subscription with Admin Magazine that appears to use the same interface and it was able to restore my purchases.

  • I had to restore my iPhone to factory settings and now I can't sync with iTunes.

    I had to restore my phone and I was able to use the most recent backup. However, when I plug into iTunes, it keeps asking if I want to restore from a backup or start as a new iPhone. I have already restored from the backup twice, but the message won't go away. How can I sync with iTunes?

    I used the solution posted here: https://discussions.apple.com/message/7838243#7838243
    It's weird that you have to restore from backup, and then choose to start as a new phone. But I didn't lose ANYTHING when I did it that way! Thank goodness!

    I have had to restore my ipad to factory settings, having made a backup on my pc first. When Ihave tried to restore from my pc I have no apps!! Please can anyone help me get them back with all their data. I don't have wifi at home and I have never been able to sync my pc with my ipad, although it works with my iphone!

    Hi Skydiver119
    Thank you so much for taking the time to reply to my problem.
    Yes the purchases were made though my apple id.
    I have looked at a few other questions on this topic and I have read that the app data is stored in the backup file but the apps themselves need to be synced back onto the ipad. Someome has mentioned right clicking on sync my ipad but I don't know where to find that to right click on!! Lol.
    Again, I really appreciate your time and if by any chance you know where I can 'right click' I would really appreciate you letting me know as I can't get my ipad to sync with my pc at all, although it is being picked up in itunes and it has backed up to itunes okay. GGrrr. Maybe I have something wrong in the settings which is not making them compatible?

  • I have had to restore me PC to factory settings  and now itunes says I am connected to another PC not the case . How do I get my music back

    I have been having problems connecting to the internet, so I tried restoring to an earlier date with no luck, so I have had to restore my PC back to factory setting. When I log on to my iTunes library it says I am already connect to another PC. I have lost all my music and photos. I have them on my ipad but I don't want to sync it with my new account as this will take all my information of my iPad. Anyone know how to get my origianl iTunes back.   

    I did back up my computer and then put everything back on ( or so I thought) but it did not work properly ( I don't know why) maybe I hit the wrong button, but know on my back up for iTunes it is the one  I have  on my computer now without all my music and photos. Guess I'll just have to start again, I did manage to work out how to get any purchases I got from iTunes. So it's just all my own music bit of a bummer really but still you live and learn, so I'm told.
    Thanks for the help thought much appreciated.

  • A message saying I had to restore my iPad to factory settings came up, can I recover data from previous back-ups?

    Tonight, a message came up on iTunes came up saying I need to restore my iPad to factory settings came up. Is there any way I can avoid doing a factory restoration? If not, can I recover data from previous backups?

    If you got the message that you need to connect to iTunes, there is no choice now but to restore the iOS software. Yes, you can restore from a backup after you restore the iOS software.
    You can only restore now by connecting to your computer and using iTunes, and at the end of the restore process, you will be asked if you want to restore from your iTunes backup to which you will say yes and then sync your iPad as well. Syncing will transfer all of your apps, music, movie, books, photos etc, back to the device. If you do not backup and sync with iTunes, you can still restore from an iCloud backup after you restore the software in iTunes.

  • I've restored my desktop to factory settings and now it's stuck in a restarting loop. Help?

    I restored my HP desktop to factory settings and it seemed like it worked, but it asked if I wanted to restart the computer so I clicked yes. Now it cycles through the restarting process and won't stop. I've tried unplugging it and plugging it back in, and a bunch of other things and nothing is working. What do I do?

    Hello amandandye, Can you advise how you restored your system? Did you use the HP Recovery Restore Disk set or the F-11 method at the bootup of the system.
    If you used the HP Recovery Restore Disk set, did you remove the last disk from the optical drive?

  • I have had to reset my iPad to factory settings and lost iTunes

    Question: how can I retrieve my iTunes, mad configure across all 3 pieces of kit.
    I have had to reset my iPad 2 to factory settings, and in so doing lost iTunes and photos.
    This has been a very long term issue with my Icloud account. It's never worked on my mac notebook, iPad nor recently purchased iPhone 4.
    This issue has been compounded by bad advice from Apple Helpine who is insisted I recreate an Apple ID using a gmail account.
    A meeting at a Genius Bar discredited this advice and promised to send me an email explaining how to get, retrieve my mac e address, that email did not arrive.
    In desperation I have had to reset my iPad, reset my ID and at least iCloud is now working for the first time.
    However I suspect the iTunes is now attached to the gmail account, which I do not wish to receive.

    What iTunes are you using? If you connect your iPad to your computer and start iTunes on your computer you should e able to select your iPad in iTunes on your computer. Then select Sunmary in the right window and scroll down to find the option to restore.

  • I restored my macbook to factory settings and now i have no app store, how can i get the app store back on my macbook?

    I need help getting the App Store back on my Macbook!!!

    You need to update or upgrade it to at least 10.6.6. If it's running 10.5.8 or earlier, this requires installing a Mac OS X 10.6 DVD.

  • My 3gs reset to factory settings and now I can't dowload apps??

    I was due for an IOS update. I plugged it in to the computer to do so, and in the middle of it there was an error which made my phone go into recovery mode. I then had to factory reset, but it synced my latest backup from that morning of contacts and pictures. I lost all my apps. I cannot download apps since this reset. (Though I had been having the same problem of being unable to download apps before this reset as well) It lets me enter my apple password, shows the load bar, and then resets - does not download. Help?!?! My phone shows over 5 GB of free space, I'm not sure what the problem is.
