Receiving an account not verified message on ipad 2, iphone 4, and pc
I am receiving an "account not verified" message when I go to icloud on my ipad 2, iphone 4, and pc (all have ios5). It requests I check my email but I never receive one. My Appleid and password are correct because I can go to my itunes account and buy apps, music, books, etc. How do Iv verify my account?
This same problem is happening to me. I bought the Lion update, updated IOS 5 etc and no verification email ever arrives. I changed my apple id password, which had to be done by sending a verification email and that email arrived immediately. Its starting to become really frustrating and really disappointing from mac
The verification email for icloud never arrives???? Someone help?????

Account not verified message appears when I click iCloud
account not verified message appears when I touch the iCloud button on my iPad mini - the only clickable option is 'delete this account' and when clicked the apple sign in appears - kind of a do loop. Any ideas on how to activate the iCloud feature on my iPad mini?
Welcome to the Apple Community.
Put in a request for another verification e-mail to be sent to you.
Start here, change your country if necessary and go to manage your account.
Also check your Mail rules and filtering, the verification mail may be going to a junk folder or even being deleted altogether. You may also wish to contact your mail provider to see if their spam filters are removing the email before it gets to you. -
I get a Account not verified message. When I hit resend it never sends.
When I try to login to iCloud I get the Account not verified message. I hit the resend email prompt but never receive the email.
Make sure you are checking the email address you used to set up your iCloud account. Check the spam/junk folder as well as the inbox. If it isn't there, go to https://appleid.apple.com, click Manage your Apple ID, sign in, click on Name, ID and Email addresses on the left, then to the right click Resend under your Primary Email Address to resend the verification email.

I have operational PC skills but have never looked at an Ipad. I'm trying to help a friend with no PC skills learn to use her new (April 29 purchase) Ipad. She was very frustrated and gave up on it shortly after buying it. Initially she had support come to the house and install a router and demonstrate the use of the Ipad. Some usage began but without frequent use and some skills, minimal operational skills evaporated.
I'm getting a little familiar with the Ipad. I think it is communicating with the router. When I go to Settings I see WiFi has NETGEAR07 to the right. Next when I go to iCloud I see a message (Check your (e-mail address) for instructions to verify this account.I looked and did not see any instructions. She may have deleted the instructions long ago. I did contact Apple and had her user ID password reset. What do I have to do to get the Account verified?
The Operator Manual mentions a Setup process but I don't see any way to initiate it again. Just thinking that might be the step to start with.I have operational PC skills but have never looked at an Ipad.

My IPad is stuck on Verifying. I'm on the Settings page and there is a box that says Account not Verified. At the bottom is something in red asking me if I want Delete Account? It's been stuck for an hour. I tried turning my IPad off, but when I go back on and into Settings it's still there. Does anyone know how to get out of this? Thank you.
To do a reboot, press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.

Under the iCloud portion of settings on my iPhone, I have always gotten the message "account not verified". The email matches and is in fact the same for my accounts on iCloud and iTunes. Has anyone had this problem, and how have they resolved it?
Hello megalina23
You need to verify the email address associated with the Apple ID. Check out the article below on how to do this.

Not receiving icloud verification email, have checked spam etc..phone is just saying account not verified, the address was linked to my husbands account but has been removed, prior to this it was saying it was already in use.
If i change to an old address it works fine but all my apple equipment uses a current googlemail address and dont want numerous ids
My itunes account/icloud account only shows this address, albeit on icloud its not verified
My husbands accounts dont have this address anywhere
Where is the verification mail going????All...sorted so thought i owed it to you all to update...
As suggested on numerous sites it was in my spam folder....but because i am using googlemail it was in the Googlemail Spam on my phone and online google account, the spam wasnt getting to my outlook account (where i was looking for it!!!)
As soon as i opened it there they were all 38 verification emails !!!!!
Hope this helps -
My iPad says "Account Not Verified" when I try to go into iCloud. How do I fix this?
You only have the option if you are already running iOS 5. If you are trying to update the iOS, you have to use iTunes on a computer to update the iPad.
There are some important things that you should know before you update and you can read bout those here.
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4972
More instructions here - for all iOS versions. Make sure you read the part about using iTunes.

When I initially try to sign in to iCloud, I get the "Account not verified" screen and I am told to check my email for instructions to verify. No email is ever sent. My ID and password work on all other Apple app's. Why not for iCloud?
I've tried both. First, I tried on my pc, where iTunes had installed iCloud when it last updated. I have iTunes installed on this computer (and on my iPad and iPhone), but that wasn't the issue.
So I went online, thinking I needed a separate iCloud Apple ID, but it prompted me for my current Apple ID and gave me the message about my ID being "valid" but not an iCloud account," which, lol, was what it had asked me to do in order to create one. I checked, and at least one other user is having the same issue. I'll attempt to copy/paste the Support request url: https://discussions.apple.com/thread/4430653?tstart=0
Thank you for any help you can give.

How to verify the primary email address for your Apple ID
When you first create an Apple ID (using your email address) a verification email will be sent to that address. If you sign in to your Apple ID from the link in that email, the email address will be verified as the primary email address for your Apple ID. You can also resend the email verification if the email address is not verified:
1. Sign in to My Apple ID to manage your account information.
2. Click Resend under Primary Email Address.
3. Verify your changes by following the link in the email you will receive from Apple and signing back in to your account.
Cheers,
Jeremy
