I'm trying to create a new ichat Acc because for some reason the old one is not working, so I go to Create an Apple ID and start creating a new apple ID, when I submit the Acc it tells me that my Email address is already verified for another Apple ID and thats the only email address I have... What can I do?
There is no way to consolidate iTunes accounts.
Setting up an iPhone has never required creation of a new Apple ID.
You've apparently purchased content with both Apple ID's. Sign into the device with the correct Apple ID and sync the content.

When I open Facetime, I see a blank screen now- no contacts or numbers. How do I add this email address to my account? Thank you.
I have also noticed the same "problem". I do not fully understand the impact of using the same ID on multiple computers and devices if I want to keep them all in sync.

after signing in in facetime with my apple id I'm asked to submit an email-address
when I use my email-address of my apple ID I get the information that this email-address is
already connected to another apple ID and the login is refused
what's the problemHi and thanks again for trying to help.
Definitely works ok from pc.
Have deleted and re-established account a few times now but still the same.
I have actually given up and added gmail account which is working fine.
Sends and receives no problem.
Bloody bigpond....
We are not remote at all. Sitting in the fantastic Pavilion Hotel in Phnom Penh. Another couple here having trouble but not bigpond. Hotel staff have tried to help but to no avail.
Giving up and stick with gmail until we get home then start trying to get resolution.
Problem actually existed on a personal wi fi network in Melbourne before we left so I should have tried to resolve it then.
Thanks again for suggestions.

I created an iTunes account and finished by having a verification email sent out. I never got the email and when I get the note to resend it it won't let me tap on it and below it says, email address is already verified for another Apple ID
Apple requires each Apple ID be associated with a different email address. Perhaps that is why you haven't received the email. Or you received the email and it is in your Junk Mail folder.

My itunes account is attached to an email account that I no longer have and cannot retrieve. I have been having trouble with purchases made to my itunes account and want to view my purchases. The support center said that they would email me the purchase history. However, I don't have that email address. When I go to change my email address to my current one, I get a message in red saying that "the email address is already verified for another Apple I.D." I'm sure it is one of my devices as we have 4 ipods and 2 iphones. How can I get my account to use my current email address? If one of my devices was registered using my current email address as it apparently was, do I need to figure out which device that is and remove the email address from that account? I'm so confused. I just want ALL my devices to use my current email address. I need to replace the old email address with my current one. How do I do that?
thanks for any assistance.Your best bet would be to try resetting the password to the account that you would like to use via iForgot
Once you log in to that account change the email address to anything, it can even be fake its just a placeholder
After you do that you will be free to change your old email address on your appleID to the new one that is now free to be used as it is no longer attached to the other account. -
I just got an iphone 5 and want to establish an apple ID. I have 2 apple IDs: both are associated with my son. One uses my email address the other his. The one using my email adress is being used by him: apps, itunes etc. The one associated with his email address has nothing going on.So... I have changed the latter to be associated with my wife's email so that I might switch the IDs so that his email is connected with his apps and itunes. No problem. Then, I tried to change the ID with my email address with his (the one I just changed), but I continue to get the message :Email address is already verified for another Apple ID. Does it take time for the system to disassociate his email with an apple ID? Is there something I am missing?
In my experience, I have seen it take days. However, if the issue still persists a week from now, I'd check with iTS, as they can look up in directory services to see if you've (or someone else) has inadvertently combined this with other Apple IDs... A very common thing since many users are not aware what they have even done.

When trying to add a new account I´m getting this error message: Email address is already verified for another Apple ID.
I didn´t know I have another Apple ID. How can I find out which Apple ID is that one and how can I add this email address to the Apple ID I currently use? ThanksAre you sure you don't have another ID? If you purchased Apple hardware you may very well have been given an ID as part of the registration process. You can check this by going to http://appleid.apple.com and clicking 'Find My Apple ID'. Follow the instructions and it should list any IDs you have.
However once an address has been associated with an Apple ID you can't use it with another (even if it's removed from the first) so you are probably going to have to use another address, such as a free one from Yahoo or GMail. -
What does this mean "Email address is already verified for another Apple ID."
I tried adding additional email to my daughters icloud account and this is what error message showed up "Email address is already verified for another Apple ID." I think he has another account on phone yo prevent me from tracking
Welcome to Apple Support Communities
That means that the email account you wanted to use is already being used by another Apple ID, so you need to remove that email account from the Apple ID which is using it. -
How do I get past the login screen to pair my new wireless keyboard and trackpad when the old ones are water damaged and don't work
Have you tried pulling the batteries out of the damaged ones so that they are completely off; then shutdown your Mac Mini via the power button on the back right. Turn on your new keyboard and trackpad then power your Mini back up? The auto detection should find your new keyboard and trackpad.

I am being asked to verify my Apple ID. When I enter the password I get the message it is wrong. It says the e-mail address is already verified for another Apple ID and then it says it is sending an e-mail to my e-mail account that I then never receive. How do I resolve this?
This is most likely caused by an iCloud sign up (which forces you to use an email address as Apple ID).
Here's the workaround fix I found after some online research:
