Verified apple id but verification failed message on iPad

I have recently bought a new iPad and was trying to set up my iCloud Account. I had to change my email address via the Apple website as I noticed an error in the address. I then followed the verification steps and when I returned to the Apple ID website page noted a green tick next to 'verification'. When I returned to my iPad, it now shows the correct email address (for verification) but the wrong email address under my name, and a message keeps popping up 'Verification Failed. The connection to iCloud timed out.'
Any ideas how to fix this?
Thank you

Hi, JTCW33.
Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
If you still have possession of the iPhone you wish to wipe, here are a couple articles that will walk you through the process.

If you no longer have access to your device, it will need to be connected to the Internet in order to remote wipe the device.

HT204053 When I try to login to my apple ID on my iphone 4 to use facetime, it will not work and tells me to check my connection? I have even tried creating a new apple ID but the same message appears

When I try to log onto my Apple ID to use facetime, it will not work and tells me to check my connection. I have even tried creating a new apple ID but the same message appears. I do not understand why this is happening, could anyone help me resolve this issue it is very frusterating that I can not enable facetime or imessage.

I could do that, however when I select the icloud button (or whatever the heck it is) I am asked to enter the apple id and password. So if you are suppose to create another one for icloud you'd think it would give you the option at this point which would be logical.

I have a Mac 10.4.11. When downloading Flash 10.1, got a verification failed message.

My Mac is a 10.4.11. I installed the flash player 10.1 through a website called Jibjab.com. once installed and on that site, my computer started going through a "refresh loop", so to speak. Wasn't sure if it was the site or the new FP version, so uninstalled and tried to re-install Flash...now, when trying to download, I get a "verification failed" message on my download page. Any ideas on how to resolve this? Thanks in advance for any help I can receive on this issue!

Hi, You should only use Adobe sites and links to Install Flash Player.
Download and SAVE the Adobe Uninstaller to your Desktop:
http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/141/tn_14157.html
Then go to this Adobe site and download and SAVE to your Desktop the Installer for Mac:
http://www.adobe.com/products/flashplayer/fp_distribution3.html
Then close all browsers, run the Uninstaller and then Reboot(restart) your computer. Then run the Installer and then Reboot.
When that is completed check to make sure the Shockwave Flash plugin is Installed and Enabled.
Hope that helps,

It reboots it but unplugging can also rectify communication issues like this. A restore would be the next step.

Facetime prompting me to login to apple id- saying "verification failed"

I use facetime on my macbook pro ALL THE TIME. Usually when I launch the application, it's already logged into my account. All of the sudden when I opened the application it was prompting me to login with my apple ID and after several minutes, it says "verification failed" and then gives me the option of creating a new Apple ID, which after a decade of one Apple ID, i'm not prepared to do. Any suggestions? My software is up to date. Running on 10.7.5

HT3209 Purchased movie appears as purchased on Apple TV but not on Mac or iPad

Clearly shows movie as purchased on Apple TV but it does not appear on any other device. Itunes on Mac shows purchase price as though i would need to re-purchase...HELP!

Hi there,
You may want to take a look at process for downloading past purchases found in the article below. One key thing to keep in mind it to make sure that you are signed into the iTunes Store with the same AppleID that you used to purchase the content you need to download.

Go to setting on the devices and change the information
Settings
iTunes and App Store
Account
(Change account)
Also settings
Mail, contacts, calendars
Account
(Change account)
Same for everything else that uses your email address. Facebook, Twitter, iCloud, on and on.

HT4623 Trying to update but verification fails saying I am not connected to Internet. I am connected to Internet though.

Trying to update 7.04 and later. I have verified I am connected to WiFi but the update fails ssying I am not connected.
How to fix?

Try this - Reset 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 - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.) No data/files will be erased. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430
Then reconnect to wifi and try updating again.
If you have an iPad 1, the max iOS is 5.1.1. For newer iPads, the current iOS is 7.0.4. The Settings>General>Software Update only appears if you have iOS 5.0 or higher currently installed.
You can no longer update to iOS 6.x, or down grade the iOS.

iOS: How to update your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4623
If you are currently running an iOS lower than 5.0, connect the iPad to the computer, open iTunes. Then select the iPad under the Devices heading on the left, click on the Summary tab and then click on Check for Update.
Tip - If connected to your computer, you may need to disable your firewall and antivirus software temporarily. Then download and install the iOS update. Be sure and backup your iPad before the iOS update. After you update an iPad (except iPad 1) to iOS 6.x, the next update can be installed via wifi (i.e., not connected to your computer).
Tip 2 - If you're updating via wifi, place your iPad close to your router to preclude getting a corrupted download.
How to Upgrade to iOS 7
The iOS 7.0 update requires around 2.5 GB of storage space, so if your iPad is almost full, you may need to clear up some space. You can check your available space in Settings -> General -> Usage.
There are two ways to upgrade to iOS 7: You can use your Wi-Fi connection, or you can connect your iPad to your PC and update through iTunes. We'll go over each method.
To upgrade using Wi-Fi:
Note: If your iPad's battery is under 50%, you will want to plug it into your charger while performing the update.
Go into the iPad's Settings.
Locate and tap "General" from the menu on the left.
The second option from the top is "Software Update". Tap this to move into the update settings.
Tap "Download and Install". This will start the upgrade, which will take several minutes and will reboot your iPad during the process. If the Download and Install button is grayed out, trying clearing up some space. The space required by the update is mostly temporary, so you should gain most of it back after iOS 7 is installed.
Once the update is installed, you may have to run through the initial steps of setting up your iPad again. This is to account for new features and settings.
To upgrade using iTunes:
First, connect your iPad to your PC or Mac using the cable provided when you purchased your device. This will allow iTunes to communicate with your iPad.
You will also need the latest version of iTunes. Don't worry, you will be prompted to download the latest version when you launch iTunes. Once it installs, you may be asked to setup iCloud by logging into your iTunes account. If you have a Mac, you may be prompted on whether or not you want to enable the Find my Mac feature.
Now you are ready to begin the process:
If you upgraded iTunes earlier, go ahead and launch it. (For many, it will launch automatically when you plug in your iPad.)
Once iTunes is launched, it should automatically detect that a new version of the operating system exists and prompt you to upgrade to it. Choose Cancel. Before updating, you will want to manually sync your iPad to make sure everything is up to date.
After canceling the dialog box, iTunes should automatically sync with your iPad.
If iTunes doesn't automatically sync, you can manually do it by selecting your iPad within iTunes, clicking on the File menu and choosing Sync iPad from the list.
After your iPad has been synced to iTunes, select your iPad within iTunes. You can find it on the left side menu under Devices.
From the iPad screen, click on the Update button.
After verifying that you want to update your iPad, the process will begin. It takes a few minutes to update the operating system during which time your iPad may reboot a few times.
After updating, you may be asked a few questions when your device finally boots back up. This is to account for new settings and features.
 Cheers, Tom

HT5621 Trying to change the email on my apple ID but get error message that the email I want to change to is already used for notifications. What do I do?

Hi,
I'm trying to change email address on my Apple ID since the email registered for the account has been hacked and I can't access it anymore. The email I want to change to is connected to another Apple ID I created about 4 years ago, though I successfully changed the email on that account as well. So the email I would like to use for my main Apple ID shouldn't be "locked" anymore.
Though, when trying to change the email on my Apple ID I get an error message (in Swedish, so this is a direct translate from google): "This e-mail address is your email address for notification. It can not be used as the Apple ID or primary email. Choose a different address."
I'm not really sure what this means or how I can fix this. The email address is connected to my Ipad and Iphone for the email app, can that have anything to do with it?
If it makes any difference, I updated both my Ipad3 and Iphone4 to ios 7 today. I'm trying to change from my Macbook air though.
Please advise, would really appreciate a reply ASAP.

It means exactly what it says... The email Address is in Use. You cannot re-use it.
