I'm trying to reset my password but I'm not receiving the authentication email. Help?!?

As it says in the title. I only have one email address (which is also my Apple ID of course) so I'm certain that these emails aren't going to another address, just not arriving at all. Have tried multiple times.

Hey mcrickster,
Thanks for the question. It sounds like you are attempting to reset the password for your Apple ID. It may be possible that you have a rescue email address setup, and the password reset email is being sent to that address:
When you provide a rescue email address, all future security emails, such as password resets from iForgot, will be sent to the address provided. The rescue email address you provide cannot be the same as your primary email address for your Apple ID.

Check your junk or spam mail folder. Also, if you established a rescue email, it could be going to that email address. If all else fails:
Contact applecare and ask for account security.

Make sure you check the spam/junk folder as well as the inbox. If it isn't there, contact the Apple account security team for your country and for assistance: Apple ID: Contacting Apple for help with Apple ID account security. If your country isn't listed, contact iTunes store support by filling out this form: https://www.apple.com/emea/support/itunes/contact.html.

I had to set up a new email ID, because I no longer had access to my old email address and Adobe was forcing me to change password, but I could not access the verification email. Now I cannot read my books under my new ID, even though I got Adobe support

If you are unable to remember your password, security questions, don’t have access to your rescue address or are unable to reset your password for whatever reason, your only option is to contact AppleCare(or Apple ID Support), upon speaking to an operator you should explain that your problem is related to your Apple ID, this way you will not be charged for assistance, even if you don’t have an AppleCare plan.
The operator will take you through some steps you may have already tried, however they need to be sure they have exhausted all usual approaches before trying to reset your account, so you should try to be helpful and show patience with the procedure.
The operator will need to verify they are speaking to the account holder and may ask you some questions that only the account holder could know, and you will need to answer them if the process is to proceed.
Once the operator has verified your identity they will send a message through to your device which contains an alpha numeric code, which you will need to read back to them.
Once this has been completed they will send an email to your iCloud email address after a period of 24 hours, so you should check that mail is enabled in your devices iCloud settings.
Upon receipt of the email, use the reset link provided to reset your password, after which you should be able to make the adjustments to iCloud that you wish to do.

I am trying to reset my password, but Apple is not sending me the Verification email... what can I do?

I reset my password for my Apple ID, but now it says I need to confirm the change. It said it sent me a verification email, and I need to follow the link to do so. However, I am not getting the verification email at all. I have resent it multiple times, but to no avail. What can I do to fix this?

It's not in the Junk Folder... Thank you though.

To migrate your data to a new iCloud account go to Settings>iCloud and turn off all synced data (contacts, calendars, etc.), when prompted choose to keep the data on your phone. After everything is set to off, scroll to the bottom and tap Delete Account. Next, create the new iCloud account on your phone and turn on syncing for contacts, calendars, etc again. If prompted, choose Merge. This will upload your data to the new iCloud account.

I purchased the factory unlocked iPhone 4S online, but I have not received the confirmation email? And how much time does it take on delivery?

I purchased iPhone 4S factory unlocked online more than 4 hours before and I havent received the confirmation email, can anyone tell me how long does it take to receive an order confirmation mail? And how many days it takes to be delivered??

I got the confirmation almost instantly. My relatives are getting it from the US. Only flip side is that they leave on the 8th. And the website says delivery is between 7th and 14th of December, 1 or 2weeks. We bought it on the 23rd of November. I just hope they get it before they leave.

I have some money left from a gift card on an itunes account, but can't log in. I've tried to reset the password but I didn't receive the email. Also I can't remember the security question. What can I try next?

I am trying to reset my security questions, but I have not received the email with instructions. What is the problem?

I initially created my apple account years ago. I am trying to reset my security questions because my answers are continually incorrect. I pressed the link that sends reset security questions info to my alt. address, but I have not received the email with instructions. I have resent the email several times and checked both of the emails I have set up with my apple account to no avail. I have tried everything that is provided in the support article about the issue and my problem has not be resolved. I've even deleted my alt email from the apple account and then reassigned it and tried again, however, I still have not received the email. Without knowing the answers to my security questions, I cannot purchase anything from the iTunes store, which I have been trying to do.
I do not know what the problem is and I am asking for any resolutions. Please and thank you!

Go to the Apple ID Security site from http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5699 or call the AppleCare support number from http://support.apple.com/kb/HE57 and ask to speak with the Account Security Team...either can help you reset your questions/answers.

Trying to create a Mozilla Persona account, but I'm not receiving the confirm credentials e-mail after three tries. Help?

I'm trying to create a persona account for: (Email removed by mod) but when I try to sign up after I've entered my e-mail and new password, I do not receive my confirmation e-mail (after repeated attempts).

The original url you gave me was: http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/persona/ which is in the first screenshot I provided. If I am in the totally wrong place, it is because that is where I was recommended to go.
I cannot login with my email and password, for as I stated in the beginning, I'm not receiving the confirmation email message that validates my email address in order to create a Persona account.

I'm trying to reset my password but I'm not receiving the authentication email. Help?!?
