My iPhone and iPad cannot recognize my Apple ID. I have changed the password three times. In the iCloud account says that my mail is not verified.
My iPhone and iPad cannot recognize my Apple ID. I have changed the password three times.
Thanks for the suggestion, Chris. I actually did not resolve the issue which is why i did not post an answer.
it turns out that my iphone seems to default to an incorrect User ID (it defaults to an @me account, which is not something that i have ever used).
even when i change the User ID in my settings for the iTunes store, it still appears when i attempt to get updates for my existing apps. however, it does seem to use the correct ID when i attempt to purchase new apps.
If someone actually had an answer to correct this, i would love to update my existing apps.
Thank you.

I changed my apple ID, I can log in on my MAC so I know it works but my iphone 4S and my ipad mini dont know it has changed!!
Causing many issues.You need to go to Settings > General > iCloud or Settings > General > iTunes Store and update your account information there. You need to do this on each device you have that account set up on.

Apple TV does not recognize my Apple account username (email) and password, but iTunes, my iPad and iPhone does. I have rest my password three times, same results.
ATV says my computer is not authorized, but i-Tunes says it is.
I have i-Tunes open on my computer and have entered i-Tunes store, ATV says it can't access the store. Both on the same network!
I am so frustrated with this system! All these problems with Apple TV are not the end but the beginning.
In i-Tunes, songs are lost when they have not been moved. I lose whole albums I have ripped from CDs to iTunes
An audiobook book in two files are in the library but only one file is recognized by iTunes when I try to play it or transfer it to my iPhoneI Am having the same issue. Ie on the password issue.
I Am using a Macpro though.
i Have had no issues with the setup until recently.
However I think the hard drive is starting to fail as it keeps on losing the wireless connection and gas been stuttering a lot on playback. -
I changed my Apple ID to a new email address. Now I cannot get my Iphone and Ipad to recognize the new Apple ID ... and I cannot access the old Apple ID because it does not recognize its password any more ... and I cannot change the password ... and there seems to be no one to ask about this. Any help?
I tried but it won't let me even access the old Apple ID. It won't recoginze its old password and will not let me make a new one. (The site tells me it has sent an email to let me change the password but the email does not come.)

After my last update mu iphone and ipad has an deleted apple id, but my itunes have the new on and I cannot change it on my devices. Any help would be appreciated.
If it's an old account which you'd updated with a new email address then try logging out of it on the iPad (and iPhone) by tapping on the id in Settings > Store (Settings > iTunes & App Stores on iOS 6) and then log back in and see if that 'refreshes' the account on the iPad (and iPhone). If you created a new account then any content that you purchased/downloaded via the old account will remain tied to that old account, and only that old account can download updates to its apps.

The iPad is new today so pleeeease help! I have the latest version of iTunes and both iPhone and iPad are up to date. I have never had a problem with home sharing before 10.5 iTunes. Both mobile devices can eventually see the shared library but load it as though it is empty. This applies to movies as well. I have turned off home sharing on the mac and restarted it. I have also made sure that the username and password on both mobile devices are correct. Help!
Mac mini ppc running 10.5.8
iPhone 4 running iOS 5.0
iPad 2 running iOS 5.0This has solved loads of people who have this issue and have used an alternate DNS setting. Below are instructions for both iPhone OTA and on you Mac
If you are getting the error message "Unable to check for update" when you try an OTA (over the air update)
Change DNS Servers
Settings -> Wi-Fi
Click the blue arrow on your connected network
Delete everything in DNS and replace it with 208.67.222.222, 208.67.220.220
Try again
If this works, you will probably want to remove the WiFi network using "Forget This Network" and then reconnect to it to get your original DNS servers back. Alternatively, make a note of the original DNS servers before deleting them and replace it after you are done.
If you are getting the error message "Unable to check for update" when you try through iTunes
On your Mac
Choose Apple menu > System Preferences, and then click Network.
Select the network connection service you want to use (such as Wi-Fi or Ethernet, unless you named it something else) from the list, and then click Advanced.
Click DNS, and then click Add at the bottom of the DNS Servers list. Enter the IPv4 address for the DNS server.
You can use OpenDNS
208.67.222.222
208.67.220.220
or
You can Google Public DNS if you want
8.8.8.8
8.8.4.4
I have actually repointed my routers DNS so all my devices now point to OpenDNS servers -
My Iphone will not let me download apps because it says my apple id is disabled, I have changed my password four times and it still is saying the same thing. What do I do now?

When I purchased my iphone and ipad last week they told me I would connect the ipad to the internet through the phone but can get niether the phone nor the ipad to see the internet?
Connecting the iPad to the internet via the iPhone is done by setting up a personal HotSpot, but you have to have that supported by your carrier and have to have established the account to do so.
On the iPhone, Settings > General > Network > Set Up Personal Hotspot -
I've been using my personal hotspot between my iPhone and iPad, but I don't believe I've changed anything with my phone contract, will I be charged on my next bill?
Depends on whether your carrier supports Personal Hotspot & how/if they charge for this feature. Some carriers include Personal Hotspot as part of your data plan, some require it be provisioned on your account. Contact your carrier & see what their requirements are. The fact that you have the Personal Hotspot setting indicates your carrier supports this feature.

repeating error message reads: "valid apple id but not icloud account." when trying to start my icloud account. I tried downloading on a different computer and logging in and it did not work. I have restarted my computer several times. I have changed my password several times. I have tried to access the icloud page. Nothing has worked. Now I have this stupid app and some of my music is still not being shared on both of my computers.
I have the same problem signing in...but, I finally got a screen saying you have to set up a account on a device..like an ipad to get a iCloud sign in ...my apple id is [email protected] and this screen reset to [email protected]
If you don't have an apple device you may be out of luck. I don't know. I'm still waiting for help just as you are...good luck to both of us though. -
I want to change my iCloud account. Buying iPad we gave a virtual (forwarding) email address.
We need to change to a real address.
But when we try to change the iCloud account, we can only change the password.
Note: we don't have a Mac, only an iPad and Windows.Welcome to the Apple Community.
Firstly, you need to change your details with Apple, Start here, change your country if necessary and go to manage your account.
In order to change your Apple ID or password for your iCloud account on your iOS device, you need to delete the account from your iOS device first, then add it back using your updated details. (Settings > iCloud, scroll down and hit "Delete Account")
Providing you are simply updating your existing details and not changing to another account, when you delete your account, all the data that is synced with iCloud will also be deleted from the device (but not from iCloud), but will be synced back to your device when you login again.
In order to change your Apple ID or password for your iCloud account on your computer, you need to sign out of the account from your computer first, then sign back in using your updated details. (System Preferences > iCloud, click the sign out button)
In order to change your Apple ID or password for your iTunes account on your iOS device, you need to sign out from your iOS device first, then sign back in using your updated details. (Settings > iTunes & App store, scroll down and tap your ID)
If you are using iMessages or FaceTime, you will also need to log out and into your ID there too. -
Does anyone know what "other" means in the sync summary bar? I have 850mb using storage space in my iphone and can't understand what that is. I have tried to delete everything, restore to factory settings and change the icloud account. Thanks.

Hi Apple Team, I would like to change the iCloud account on my iPhone, however it says I must 'delete the account' before doing so? Does this mean that I delete the entire existing account, or just delete it from my phone specifically?
From the iPhone only.
