Unable to verify e-mail address for logging to iCloud
Unable to verify e-mail address to complete login for iCloud
Firefox doesn't do email, it's strictly a web browser.
If you are using Firefox to access your mail, you are using "web-mail". You need to seek support from your service provider or a forum for that service.
If your problem is with Mozilla Thunderbird, see this forum for support.

Associate a previously verified e-mail address with a new iCloud account?
I've decided to start from scratch and create a new iCloud account, having previously used my old Apple ID for iCloud. Now I'd like to associate the extra e-mail addresses I'd verified with the old account with the new one.
I went to the Manage Apple ID settings for the old Apple ID/iCloud account and deleted all the alternate e-mail addresses. I went to the Facetime and Message settings on all my devices and deleted the extra e-mail addresses there too, before removing the old iCloud account from all devices. I then set them up with the new iCloud account.
I went to the Manage Apple ID settings for the new Apple ID/iCloud account and added the extra e-mail addresses I'd previously used with the old one. Two of the addresses worked (verification e-mails were sent) but one of them said "this is already verified with another Apple ID".
When I check the Manage page for the old Apple ID, that last extra e-mail address isn't listed. However, when I try to add it back it immediately reads as 'verified' without needing to send a verification e-mail.
There must be some latent association between the old Apple ID and that last extra e-mail address, a connection I still need to sever.

How to change e-mail address to log on icloud
How do I change or add new e-mail address on iCloud to log in?
You can change your primary iCloud email address, if does not end with @mac.com, @me.com, @icloud.com.
Start with signing out of iCloud on all your devices - iPhones, iPads, Mac etc. - ("Settings > iCloud") and delete your iCloud account from this devices (+ turn off Find My iPhone, but I guess it will ask you that anyway)
After that open http://appleid.apple.com sign in, and now change your iCloud email address (which is also an Apple ID) to your new email address.
Finally, set up your iCloud account on all your devices again usin -
Can't use Find My Friends on iPhone due to Apple ID not being verified.
Can't do this as I can't access my .mac email any longer and I can not change the primary e-mail address for my Apple ID!
So my options are:
Create a new Apple ID, use that and lose all the apps I've purhcased with it (a fairly substantial amount)
Somehow Migrate these purchases over to a new Apple ID
Apple let me change the primary ID for the account
Anyone else ran into this before?
I've tried accessing the mail through a mail application using the correct server information, and trying both the old 6 character password and the one I had to change it too after they updated the security guidelines - neither work.
Help would be greatly appreciated as I can see more services down the line not working without the address being verified!To change the iCloud ID you have to go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account, provide the password for the old ID when prompted to turn off Find My iDevice, then sign back in with the ID you wish to use. When you do this you may find that the password for your old ID isn't accepted. If this should happen, and if your old ID is an earlier version of your current ID, you need to temporarily recreate your old ID by going to https://appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your current iCloud ID. Click edit next to the primary email account, change it back to your old email address and save the change. Then edit the name of the account to change it back to your old email address. You should not need to verify the old email address. You can now use your current password to turn off Find My iDevice on your device, even though it prompts you for the password for your old account ID. Then save any photo stream photos that you wish to keep to your camera roll. When finished go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account and choose Delete from My iDevice when prompted (your iCloud data will still be in iCloud). Next, go back to https://appleid.apple.com and change your primary email address and iCloud ID name back to the way it was. Now you can go to Settings>iCloud and sign in with your current iCloud ID and password.

And by using the same Apple ID you can also share purchases. If you have a different Apple ID for each iPhone then you can't share purchases.

Will setting up an iCloud e-mail address for Notes change my Apple ID
I am looking to synch Notes on my Mac, iPad and iPhone and apparently need to create a separate e-mail address for iCloud just for Notes. I currently use my Apple ID to log into my iCloud account and since this is an AOL e-mail address cannot be used for Notes. I am concerned that this additional e-mail address will somehow become the default for more than just Notes and cause me problems. Can someone provide some insight?
In order to sync notes with iCloud you have to create an iCloud email account because it uses the email IMAP service to sync notes. You don't have to actually use the email account for email but it does have to be created in order to sync notes. You can just create the @icloud.com address and forget about it. After it's created, go to Settings>Mail,Contacts,Calendars>Default Account (in the Mail section) and make sure your AOL account is still selected as your default. (If it isn't, tap it to select it). It won't cause any other problems.

Since I downloaded Firefox 3.6.6 on my Mac, I am now unable to get e-mail address to automatically complete when I enter the first few letters of the address. in English
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== I downloaded Firefox 3.6.6In my case it seems that Firefox just doesn't "see" (or can't find?) the coupon printer application anymore after the FF update. (and yes, my add-ons are enabled - to answer the tech support people's first question).
For me, the coupon printer doesn't even show up in my Firefox "Add-Ons" list anymore. Is that what people typically see when they're saying the coupon printer "doesn't work" with FF? The coupon printer was visible on the add-ons list before my FF update, and now it's totally Gone! It seems that Firefox just doesn't "see" (or can't find?) the coupon printer application anymore since the FF update.
When I'm on the coupons.com site and I click "print coupons", it tells me I haven't installed the application. But it Is installed on my computer, I can see it in my folders, and it works on IE, so it's definitely there.
BTW - I have uninstalled/reinstalled the coupon printer application. I have tried all the suggestions on the Mozilla help/forum sites, as well as the Coupons.com web site. I have closed and re-started Firefox after the installation. I have also shut down and restarted my pc after installation. I tried installing the application with Firefox open, and tried it again with Firefox closed. I've even cleared out all my cookies/history associated with Coupons.com.
... I can't think of anything else to try, except for the "solution" of using IE for coupons.
If it Really is a problem on the Coupon.com end of things, do you think it's worth it if we bombard the coupons.com support team with messages saying they need to fix the problem? (or just a waste of time?) ;( -

I wana change the receiver E-mail address for security answers . How can i ?
Hi Mohammed,
You can change the Rescue email address by logging onto your Apple ID at:
https://appleid.apple.com/cgi-bin/WebObjects/MyAppleId.woa/
Of course, if you do not know your password, and it is asking you to answer your security questions right now, then you can't do that....

Someone is using my e-mail address for Apple ID
Hello
I have an e-mail address that I do not use to any Apple devices.
For about 1 week ago I received a mail in Italian saying this:
Dear G******* M******,
You entered gio**** @gmail.com as primary email address for your Apple ID. To complete the task, we have to verify that email address actually belongs to you. Click on the link below and sign into your account using your Apple ID and password.
Check now>
Why did you received this email?
This email is sent when someone adds or changes a contact email address in your Apple. If you have not made any changes do not worry. Your email address can not be used as a contact address for an Apple ID without your verification.
For more information, see the frequently asked questions .
Thank you,
Apple Customer Care
so the problem is that I'm in Greece and someone has put my e-mail address for their Apple ID in Italy...
What can I do?
The problem is that I ignored the e-mail thinkink that if I don't click the verification button noting will happen but instead today I received more than 10 e-mails saying the same thing...
What can I do to prevent these e-mails? and to make the person who is using my e-mail to change it?
Thank you in advance
<Link Edited By Host>I think you misunderstood me. I don't want an account. I only created one to write here. What I need is for itunes to contact this user and ask him to change his account. I can't believe how it's possible for someone to use my email as his.
I'm sorry if I sound harsh, but I have this mail adress for 12 years and never had something like this before. -
While using it my iPad spontaneously came up with the message "This iPad cannot back up to iCloud without a verified e-mail address". There are two buttons to push: "Later" and "Settings". Pushing either button does nothing. It acts as if it is frozen. If I try to slide the off switch, it does not slide. I assume it is frozen. How do I get out of this?
Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.

Has anyone an e-mail address for EE. The EE site is so not user friendly.
Has anyone got an e-mail address for EE. The EE site is so not user friendly.I found it once having clicked here there and everywhere but can not find it again.
Please read below Dear Sir/Madam, EE ACCOUNT 07946733914 PAY AS YOU GO I have been an EE customer since December 2014 having migrated from T-Mobile.Your website is so frustrating. The links work some of the time not all of the time, although when I want to top up it works every time. Where do I find my account number on the site? Why doesn’t it show every time I access my account? When I log in I have to press enter to be able to put in my log in detail which means I get an error message.I usually spend between £20 and £30 per year but have topped up that sum in the last 2 months. Because of that I tried to buy the £1 talk & text pack with 25 minutes and 50 texts. The site accepted all the steps but the pack has not activated.Because of this I tried to access, via my account links, View Top up History. It only shows my last top up on 25/07/2015. That is not acceptable I need to see all my top up history.On several occasions I tried to access, again through the link on my account, View Usage. I eventually got a response which showed I had texted 207 times on 31/07/2015. This inaccurate record showed these messages were to two numbers.As a result of the above just before 10am on Sunday 02/08/2015 I contacted your customer services and spoke to a male who sounded Indian. Again your help line is so frustrating over 3 minutes of select from the following to find none of them covered the help I need so I decided to select I am leaving EE. I pointed out to your representative the problems I was having and he put me on hold while he checked my account. After a minute or so he came back to me and said he would have to transfer me to someone else. Again I was put on hold and after a little while another man came on the phone. He checked with me what my call was about and then put me on hold while he checked my account. He came back on after a while and said he could see there was a problem and counted the texts I had sent since my top up on 25th. I think he said it was 43 or something like that. He then said he would have to speak to his manager about the problem and again I was put on hold After a minute or so he came back and told me his manager was very busy and his manager would phone me back. We agreed a time of 1pm that day Sunday.I am still waiting for that call.I have checked the records on my mobile phone and since I topped up on 25/07/2015 I have sent 29 text messages.So what do I need.EE to buck up and:Give me accurate recordsYour website to work every timeMy account number to show on my accountA link either from my home page or account where I get the phone number and an e-mail address at which I can contact you. Clicking on several links on the web site I did eventually find them once but have not been able to find them again.An explanation as to why your site shows I sent 207 texts on 31/07/2015.How accurate is your system.How often am I being charged for ‘Ghost texts’?Clean up your site so help means help and not just link you to something that does not help.I know I don’t spend much with you and may not be as valued to you as someone who spends a lot of money with you. But if something is worth doing it is worth doing right. The most cost effective way is to do it right the first time.I have just tried to get a copy of the detail your site gave me for 25th but now get an error message.

How to own the same e-mail-address for different Apple-IDs
Hello
I’m under the impression, that I can’t use the same e-mail-address for iCloud I used already in my Apple-ID for iTunes, because I get no verification mail for the iCloud account. Is this correct or did I something wrong?
Thanks for supporting me
I already raised this question in the iCloud forum, but till now nobody answered - may be the wrong sub-forumMany thanks for the answer - that's what I suspected. Anyway...
The problem I have now is, that my Apple-ID I used already for some years in order to buy apps is in the "old" format (e.g. duggy832), that means not in the form of an eMail-address. iCloud accept only Apple-IDs in the “new” format meaning in the form like an eMail-address (e.g. [email protected]).
So it needs to modify the old Apple-ID from duggy832 to [email protected] or to “transfer” – if possible – my shopping from Apple-ID duggy832 to [email protected]
Which way is possible, which is safe/secure, which is recommended?
Thanks in advance -
