My iMessage on my iPod won't accept my email

When I try to set up my iMessage, I enter my apple id, then I verify my email that I want to use as a contact number, but after almost three minutes of waiting, it says that it can't verify my email and says check mail to verify account. I Check my mail and refresh it but I don't get any notifications from iMessage. I've tried resetting my iPod and reseting my app and recreating my email but nothing seems to work. I need help please!

My phone won't send an iMessage to an iPod that previously accepted them

So I updated to iOS 7 & so did a friend of mine. I have a 4s and she has the newest version of the iPod touch. Before updating we could send iMessages to each other but now when I message her it goes to her email instead of messages. She can send me iMessages and can receive iMessages from other people. Is it my phone or her iPod and how do I fix it?

It is. She can get iMessages from other iPods/iPhones but mine go to her email

My iPod won't accept my wifi password...it says failed to connect...why?

I am unable to activate my new iPod touch...it won't accept my password I use for my wifi for other gadgets like my iPad. It keeps telling me connection failed! Help! Why won't my password work?

Does the iOS device connect to other networks?
Does the iOS device see the network?
Any error messages?
Do other devices now connect?
Did the iOS device connect before?
Try the following to rule out a software problem:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Power off and then back on your router
.- Reset network settings: Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings (if you can)
- iOS: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections
- Wi-Fi: Unable to connect to an 802.11n Wi-Fi network
- iOS: Recommended settings for Wi-Fi routers and access points
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: How to back up
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
If still problem make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

IPod won't accept a WAV file - why??

I have a 4th-gen iPod nano, and I need to copy some WAV files onto it. However, when I sync the iPod, the WAV files don't appear on the iPod (even though I have not received an error message about copying them). The WAV files are ones I recorded myself, and edited in the program GoldWave. They are PCM signed 24 bit mono files. Does the iPod nano not accept WAV files in the PCM signed 24 bit mono format? If not, how do I need to format the files in order to be able to play them back on my iPod? Thanks very much for any help you can give me!!!

I have .wav files on a pc and am trying to transfer them to an ipod classic to either listen to on the device or to transfer into itunes. These are voice recordings. All of the files transfered but they are corrupted. How do I this properly?
Plus..I'm in a bit of a rush.

ICloud won't accept my email address in "set up"

I'm trying to set up iCloud and it requires that my apple ID must be an email address.My old ID wasn't an email address and when I try to replace it with my regular email address iCloud refuses it because it won't accept primary or recovery addresses.I'm planning to get an iCloud address once I have iCloud set up. How do I get past this catch 22?

You only have one e-mail? You unhappy because you may need to create e-mail with less characters? To be honest you surprised me, I have never seen that message, I suppose if you tell us how many characters the least we (users like you) can do is to say if we have seen or not longer e-mail addresses.

TS3899 trying to set up my email with my phone and it won't accept my email password

Hi,
I'm trying to set up my email info on my phone and it won't accept my password form my hotmail account?? help

Hi Guys
Thanks for all the input.   I guess I need to clarify my situation a little better.
I've always had a Blackberry and made the sitch last week.
My work email is merely a forward that our ISP handles.
So if you send me an email to [email protected] my ISP forwards it to my Gmail account.   Within Gmail I was able to set it up that any email I send or reply to comes from my [email protected]
Now that I have an iphone the game has changed.    Using Microsoft Exchange I set up my email and no problem sending or recieving but when I send an email or reply to an email its coming from [email protected] and I want it to be coming from my work address.
Thanks again
Luke

Am on Win 8.1 and Thunderbord won't accept my email-p/w

Have just downloaded Thunderbird and have tried to configure it but it doesn't accept my email address/ password combination. I have entered it correctly, including the use of capitals. Presumably it *was* asking for my email account password in the box immediately beneath the one asking for my email address?
If it's relevant, I notice that when it rejects it, it gives a note in which it adds a superfluous 'mail' after the '@' in my email address; I didn't put this in.
Can someone help?

My IPod won't accept my verified AppleID, what do I do?

I am very new to Apple products (Aside from using Macs in ), and just got my first Ipod yesterday. I started my AppleID with my email address like anyone else and verified it. Briefly though, today I switched it to another email address I have. Finally deciding against it, I decided to switch back to the original email address I had used when I got it yesterday. But when I switched it, Itunes kept asking me to verify my AppleID through the original email. I had already done this when I started my account, so I could not do it again. Now I can't buy or download anything because my ITunes or my IPod keeps demanding I verify something that has been previously been verified. What can I do? I can download stuff on my computer through ITunes, but it doesn't work on my IPod. This *****...

The drive is not grabbing the discs?
Is the drive just not letting you insert the discs?
There is one thing you can try before going the external drive direction.
The first thing that I would attempt is to reset the optical drive’s eject mechanism. To do this, you’ll need to connect a wired, USB mouse to your computer. Then, tell your iMac to shut down. Once the machine is powered off, hold your mouse button down and re-power your iMac.
Keep the mouse button held down until you reach the login window. You should hear the optical drive perform one full eject cycle. At that point, you can release the mouse button, log in, and try insert a disk in the drive.
If this doesn't work, the cost of repairing the original drive maybe comparable or, most likely, more expensive to repair than just adding an external optical drive. And there is no guarantee that the internal optical drive won't fail, again, as the slot loading drives in iMacs have a tendency toward premature failure. It is not a very good drive to begin with and optical drives don't really like being mounted in a upright, vertical mounting position.
With external optical drives, there are many price and quality levels. You can purchase a cheap drive knowing that in less than a couple of years, it could fail and need a new replacement OR purchase a more expensive , but better quality drive that is more durable and designed to last longer.

IPod won't accept charge. Bizarre mechanical noise.

A coworker came to me today with a 2005 30gb iPod (Model: A1136). He says his iPod was working just fine, then stopped accepting a charge. I am trying to see if I can help him out in getting it back up and running. I have tried using different USB cables, adapters, ports, and plugs, and thus ruled out it being an outside problem. I am assuming that either the charging port on the iPod has gone south, or possibly the battery all together. I have managed to carefully pull apart the iPod to take a glance. No severed connections. I did notice that being completly disconnect from everything, there is absolutely no sound coming from the iPod. However, upon plugging the iPod into a functional power source, I am able to hear a very quite, high pitched sound that continues with a high-pace pulse sound to it. The sound immediately halts upon removal of the power source. Any ideas as to what the problem might be? Any solutions or recommendations? Thanks!

Hi Wafflemonster,
Have you used your iPod with any 3rd-party accessories, like a car charger or dock?
Try resetting the iPod by toggling the Hold switch and then holding the Play/Pause and Menu buttons until you see the Apple logo, as described here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1320
If the issue persists, try restoring the iPod from iTunes as described here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1339
If restoring the iPod does not resolve the issue, the iPod may need hardware repair. Make a reservation to have a Genius take a look at it or call AppleCare.

Thunderbird won't accept comcast email to send most of the time, also gmail password most of the time

Sorry. I hit something and ended up on beginning page. No idea if you got the previous one of these. Put into search why won't thunderbird accept my password. Up came a messed up version of my comcast email password. My gmail password was not addressed. Since I used the singular for password, that could be why. Since a friend of mine somehow changed some thing, I could both send and get in to see my email using both passwords - comcast and gmail. Before that I could not get in nor send with neither the comcast nor the gmail passwords. First, I wonder what he changed. Second, did he mess it up further and make it much harder to fix? What is strange is when he changed what ever he changed, for a short time afterword, I could both send and get in to see the email using both , then it went to see email only with both passwords and not send with either one I really am sorry I had him work on it, but some how I did not find this system to ask questions. I made several attempts; however, only found articles. Actually, I found this by accident and am not sure I could it again. Would you please tell me how to get to this system? I tend to be verbose. I hope not too much so. Thank you for your volunteer time and effort. I truly hope this does not a lot of hassle to fix or tell me how if that is the way it is done. If I have to do it, please make it simple.

I am having the same problem. I have an ipod touch that worked fine up until the 4.0 firmware. The only thing I have noticed with mine that it was glitchy when it came to sending mail (which I use yahoo). Then most recently it stopped sending altogether. My isp is verizon & I have an airport extreme. I noticed today I can bounce off of a neighbors linksys wifi. Now I have no clue who their isp is. It's either verizon or comcast. Regardless I was able to send mail using their internet. Mine on the other hand is a no go.
I too am *extremely frustrated*. I have deleted my mail accts several times in hopes of it fixing the problem. I also updated to the latest firmware of 4.1 in hopes of it resolving the issue. I even tried using other smtp servers with no luck.
I hope someone out here has a solution to this problem. It is very frustrating.

Factory reset OfficeJet Pro 8600Plus ePrint setup won't accept original email account

Factory reset on printer
Had to do a factory reset on the printer. When setting up ePrint again, I put in my email address and it says that it's already in use. The ePrint website assigns a non-sensical email address to the printer. How do I get it to use the original email address without giving me an error?

Hi,
I afraid you will not be able to use the previous email address.
Any ePrint address unassigned from a device is ocked and cannot be used by any user for a 6 months period due to security reasons.
You may follow the steps below to select a new customized ePrint address:
