Want to use I cloud but can't open primary email address for verification process

Hi there, it's my first time to join the Apple community eventhough I have used Ipad for about two years I guess, n have loved it since then.
Well, I have problem, I want to use I cloud, but I can't  as I have to give verification first by following the instruction from Apple which has been sent to my primary email address. The problem is, I have been unable to open my primary email address because I seldom use it. I use my rescue email address for all my email communication, instead. My question is: Is there any email address of the support staff  because I want the staff to send the instruction for my verification through my rescue email address?
I have looked up the support page, though, and submitted question which I thought it was the best solution: I want to change my primary email address ( to the rescuer email address) but I was refered to the page " expresslane" which should have been the most convenient way, because all I had to do was just call n talk to the support staff. However, since I don't live in the US, but in a foreign country, talking on the phone is not convenient for me.
I would really appreciate it if any one can help me with this because I can't wait to use I Cloud. Thank you.
All the best,
Suzy
PS: sorry, I didn't fill out the operating system information n other details because I don't remember it n didn't try to check it out as I was afraid I might lose this message n have to retype all over again.

Suzy this usually means your apple id primary email address was not verified when you setup your apple id. What you will want to do is go to appleid.apple.com and try and log in under manage your apple id, if it tells you its sent a verification email you can change that email to something else by clicking edit (this cant be your rescue email though) once done a new email should be sent that you can verify and then use icloud. Hope this helps

  • I have created some movies using After Effects but can't open them now because I get the following message:

    I have created some movies using After Effects but can't open them now because I get the following message:
    Ray-tracing on the GPU requires an approved NVIDIA graphics card and CUDA 5.0 or later. For now, ray-tracing will use the GPU.
    After installing CUDA 5.0 or later, restart your computer.
    For more information see: http//www.adobe.com/go/aeraytracedgpu
    HELP. I have a project that needs to be delivered.

    The alert message is just telling you that a specific feature won't use the GPU. This message is innocuous. It only means that the processing of one specific, obsolete feature will use the CPU, not the GPU.
    Are you saying that After Effects won't start or open your project?

  • HT204053 Can I use an icloud email address as the primary email address for an Apple ID?

    Hi There
    Can I use an icloud email address as the primary email address for an Apple ID?

    Whenever you create a new icloud email it is an Apple ID, but if you previously had an Apple ID you cannot use the new email to replace the old one. You have to abandon the old accout and you will lose all the content you had with that account. But what I did was upload all my itunes to amazon cloud, these were the only purchases I had. I already bought books from kindle and I now rent movies from amazon instant video. Everytime I log in I use my icloud email and password. I just used it to sign in to support communities.
    The notification that you posted about changing your Apple ID was present when I created my icloud email and made the change.

  • How can i change  Primary Email Address in apple ID

    How can i change  Primary Email Address in apple ID.

    You cannot change a *.mac, *.me or *.icloud email address - any Apple issued email address cannot be changed.  Only non-apple issued primary email addresses are editable.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5621?viewlocale=en_US
    You can contact the AppleID support team at http://www.apple.com/support/appleid/contact and ask them what can be done.

  • Can I create an email address for a family member using my apple ID?

    I converted to iCloud from Mobile Me in October before I created email addresses for my kids.  Can I create accounts for them in iCloud?

    Just go to http://appleid.apple.com and create a new Apple ID for each kid - note that you will need a different associated email address for each ID, and different from your own, but you can use free addresses such as Yahoo.
    Then start a new iCloud account for each using the IDs. You will need to have a separate user account on your Mac for each kid (you should be doing this anyway, and they should be non-admin accounts) and then you can enter the ID in System Preferences>iCloud and create a new @me.com address in each case.
    Alternatively you could create up to three email aliases on your own account - these are addresses, not accounts, and deliver into your main inbox alonside your mail, so everyone will be able to see everyone else's mail, which may well not be what you want.

  • Can't change my email address for this forum

    I need to change my email address for this suport forum, but can't figure out how to do it.  If I go to my profile, I can see it but I can't change it.  And it's different from my main Apple ID which is set already set correctly with the email address I want to use.
    How do I do this?

    After a long couple of sessions with Apple tech support, here's what I've learned (for the benefit of others):
    If you have more than one Apple ID like I do, then the original one that you used to sign into these forums is the one you're stuck with.
    You can change that original ID's email address and/or password, but you must keep using that "first" set of credentials.  If you try to sign in with your newer Apple ID, it won't work, it'll keep prompting you for the old ID, so make sure you write it (and the password) down somewhere.
    I made the original mistake of creating a 2nd Apple ID when I closed an old email account a couple of years ago and needed to stop using that old email address.  What I should have done, and will apparently have to pay for forever, was to simply change the email address on the 1st Apple ID.
    Bottom line from my experience is be sure to only use one Apple ID.  If you create another, you'll be stuck with both for all time and have to use one or the other depending on which one you originally used in a particular situation. For example, when I get a new iPhone, I have to use the old Apple ID to download all the apps 2 years old and older, then sign out and back in with the new ID to download all the apps 2 years old or newer.  What a pain, but Apple has no way of combining them.  The tech rep said to send feedback, which I've already done.

  • Can't find eprint email address for my HP 6500A Plus

    Please help me figure out how to find the eprint email address for my HP 6500A Plus printer so that I can set up Google cloud print on my new HP 14" Chromebook.
    This question was solved.
    View Solution.

    Hi lbwmson,
    Welcome to the HP Support forums.  I understand that you would like to setup your Officejet 6500A Plus printer to work with your Chromebook.
    First we need to get the printer connected to your wireless network.  This can be easily accomplished from the front panel of the printer. the instructions can be found on page 224 of your User Guide in the section titled "To set up a wireless communication using the Wireless Setup Wizard". 
    The next step is Getting your Claim Code when you enable web services. Once that you have your claim code you'll want to Set Up A Custom Email Address for your printer. 
    We can now set up Google Cloud Print with your HP Printer.  For additional reference I've also included how to Print a Page from Google Chrome Support.  If you are going to use the scanning function please refer to your User Guide on page 41.  It has a section titled "Scan Using Webscan".  It will walk you through the scanning you have available with the Chromebook.

  • How can I change Primary Email Address to icloud email?

    I have an apple id been using for many years.  I would like to change the primary email address.  I would like to create a new icloud email address and use that as primary email for my apple id.
    When I try to do this in the Manage Apple ID it says that I cannot pick an email address associate with apple domain.
    How do I do this???
    Essentially I would like to start over with an icloud email address but keep all my existing itunes purchases etc.   If I create a new Apple ID with icloud email id I am hosed and cannot copy over my purchases.   If I stay with existing Apple ID, I can change primary email address but I can't use icloud email.
    Any suggestions??

    While you can't currently change your Apple ID to a Mobile/iCloud email address, I found a solution that helps with a related problem.
    Suppose you've recently got an iCloud email address, but Apple are still sending all your iTunes Store, App Store and Mac App Store receipts to your old gmail address (the one that's still your Apple ID). And suppose they're also sending all the Apple Support Communities notifcation emails to your old gmail address. How do you change it? How do you fix it?
    Well the option exists, but it is hidden away in a weird place. To get Apple sending all of their receipts and notifications to your new iCloud email address...
    • Go to your country's Apple Store website http://store.apple.com/
    • Click on the Account button in the top-right corner
    • Under Account Settings, click on Change your default shipping or billing info
    • Sign in with your usual Apple ID and password
    • The email address listed under Payment Information is the key
    • Click on Edit next to Payment Information and change that email address to your iCloud address
    That's all you have to do.

  • How can i change the email address for apple id and icloud?, how can i change the email address for apple id and icloud?

    i had to change the email address to my apple id. now when ever i try to use imessage or the icloud, it wont let me because it is using the old email address. i cant change it on my phone and idk what to do on my computer!

    If the old ID is yours, and if your new ID was created by editing the details of this old ID (rather than being an entirely new ID), go 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 can now use your current password to turn off Find My iDevice, 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.

  • Where can I find an email address for Verizon customer service?

    I would like to send an email to Verizon outlining my opinion of their website and how it might be improved, but I can't find an email address.  When I asked the representative, she directed me to the "Contact Us" tab.  There I found a postal address!

    There is no email address only a postal address.  You can try to call CS, but they have no idea what the website does or is, or how to push opinions or concerns up the line.  If you go a regional executive route, you might get a call, but they are not familiar with website operations or even know who to send your issue to.  Perhaps one of your improvement ideas is something we can assist you with, in case it was something missed or we know another way to accomplish what it is you're trying to do.
