TS3992 old iphone won't verify my icloud account. Can't backup my old phone so I can start using my new phone

My iphone won't verify my account even though I did it thru the email confirmation as instructed. I can't verify my i cloud account on my phone, it just keeps spinning saying it is trying to verify the acct, so I can't backup my phone info. I can't restore my current phone info to my new iphone until I get the original iphone backed up. Everything online seems to be setup and working, but my phone still won;t recognize the account. Should I delete the accoutn on my phone an dstart again? Will I loose all my info in my Itunes account?  Please help!!! This is driving my crazy!!!
I thought they called these smart phones? This is a lot of work with no end in sight so far. :-(

Did you click the Verify Now link on the verification email from Apple?

  • Cannot activate old iPhone 4s/delete it from iCloud-Account

    Hello everybody!
    As I wanted to give my old iPhone 4s (iOs 7) to my daughter for christmas, I reseted it and erased all settings, but I forgot to uncheck "Find my iPhone". After inserting her SIM, the usual procedure started, until the phone wanted to be activated using my apple-id. Inserting my ID resulted in an error saying "wrong account or password", but they're definitly correct for I used them in following step. So, after searching for a solution, I wanted to delete the iPhone using 'icloud.com/find', but there was no phone to delete. I even couldn't find it...
    Next I wanted to use iTunes to restore the phone,resulting in a crash saying "error 3014".
    For the record: the phone is not cracked/jailbroken or stolen, for I bought it last February at the local t-mobile-store.
    Plesse, does anybody have a solution?

    If other methods of recovering the password for the Apple ID won't work then contact Apple via Apple ID: Contacting Apple for help with Apple ID account security

  • I cannot verify my iCloud account.  No email is being sent.  What can I do?

    I have tried to set up an icloud account and it won't allow me to verify it.  It says it has sent an email to verify but I don't receive one and there isn't a message in my spam.  Don't know what to do.

    Contact Applecare support and they be able to transfer you to someone who can send you a verification email.

    Well, unless you can get this info, all you'll own is a paperweight. So, return the phone & get your money back. There is no other solution.
    Apple can't/won't help you with this.
    Good luck.

  • How do I verify my icloud account?

    I can't get my icloud account to verify, it says to check me email but i didn't receive an email. How do I verify the icloud account?

    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.

  • If I restored my new iPhone from iCloud backup, and I delete the old iPhone backup to make room on iCloud to back up my new phone, will it delete everything on the new phone?

    I have this exact same issue.  Replaced my iPhone 4s with the new iPhone 5s, setting up my new iPhone 5s to restore from iCloud.  This completed and now I am unable to delete my old iPhone 4s iCloud backup (consuming 15.1 GB of my 20GB allocation).  How can I delete it, so that I get my 15 GB back?  I am not going to invest in additional iCloud storage, because I will be 15 GB down from the off.

    Any help much appreciated as phone assistence unavailable today.

    Hello Asokwah,
    Sign out from your pple Id on your Device and Go to https://appleid.apple.com/cgi-bin/WebObjects/MyAppleId.woa/ and then Sign In with your Apple Id here and Under your Primary Email Address click on Resend Next to Verification Email Sent. Now Go to your Email Account and Verify your Apple Id again by clicking in the Link inside the Mail that you might have received from Apple. Now Sign In on your Device and try to make a Purchase and if it is for the first time then you will be asked to Review your Account and if you have entered your Credit/Debit card in your Account then you will have to just Enter your 3 Digits CVV Number and then click on Done. And then you can try downloading any Application from AppStore or Music from iTunes Store and check if its working.

  • My contacts on my iphone won't sync to icloud. Any suggestions??

    My contacts on my iPhone won't sync to iCloud. Any suggestions??

    Yes contacts is on and the account listed is the iCloud account (@me.com)
    When I go onto iCloud the only contact there is my @me.com email. This account was set up so I could use iCloud but I also have a yahoo account on my iPhone if this has anything to do with it.

  • Email on my iphone wasn't updating so I deleted acct. Iphone won't verify acct. when I tried to add that acct back. Message says check network connection

    Email on my iphone wasn't updating so I deleted the acct. Iphone won't verify acct. when I tried to add that acct back. Message says check network connection and that I entered correct info in the "Incoming Mail Server" field.
    Where would I find that?

    You are sure that you have entered the correct username and password in the incoming mail section?
    As far as using the iPhone with the Mac, I'm not a Mac user, so I cannot say. I do know that with Windows, the only time the iPhone will appear in Explorer is if there are photos in the Camera Roll. Otherwise you have no other access to the file system.

  • After I edited my contact list on my iphone I set up the icloud account.  Now all of my old contacts have been added to the edited ones.  If I delete the icould will I lose all of my contacts or just the ones brought in by icloud?

    You cannot delete an Apple ID, you can just stop using it. If your photos are still on your phone now, then I suggest you do back them up. Transfer them from the phone into your iPhoto Library. iCloud only backs up your Camera Roll automatically. But the Camera Roll only contains new photos that were taken but not yet transferred using iTunes.

  • My icloud account is registerd to an old e-mail adres which is not available anymore. But icloud still tells me that the account is not verified, and i have to check my e-mail, but i can't. How can i solve this?

    It's a really bad idea to post your email address - it's an invitation to spam - and I've asked the Hosts to remove it.
    You should be able to change your ID at http://appleid.apple.com - click on 'Manage your Account', then in the first pane which opens you will see your Apple ID with an 'Edit' link to the right of it. Click that and you should be able to change the ID to your email address. Then you can sign in with it in System Preferences>iCloud to open an iCloud account and create a new @icloud.com address.
    If you are not inextricably wedded to using your existing ID you can skip this step: just follow the method described by IMP68 here:
    https://discussions.apple.com/message/22283348#22283348
    this will enable you to create an ID which is also the @Icloud.com address which you choose. (You can still sign into iTunes with the old ID if you want to - there is no connection between the two.)

  • HT204053 i cant verify my icloud account on my iphone how can i do this

    i cant verify the icloud account on my phone anyone have any ideas

    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.

  • I have Iphone 4s, and the phone will activate itself again. How do I get changed Apple ID on my phone so that I get using the new username and password that is verified? I would like an answer as soon as possible ... Thank you very much.

    I have Iphone 4s, and the phone will activate itself again. This I have verified, but when I shall put this onto my phone, so the phone will not approve the newusername and password. How do I get changed Apple ID on my phone so that I get using the new username and password that is verified? Silly to buy a new phone just for this .... The phone is almost three years old. How long can weexpect this to last? I would like an answer as soon as possible ... Thank you very much.

    It sounds like your device might be in Activation Lock.  Is it asking your to enter in an Apple ID & password, but only showing you the first letter of the email address and then some dots? Example: j•••••@icloud.com?
    If so, do you recognize that email?  Do you have an Apple ID that fits the same format?  If so, then go to www.cloud.com, log in with that Apple ID & password, and see if under Find My iPhone it shows this device.  If so, turn off the device, then remove the device from the list.
