Why will FaceTime not verify my email
I can not get the email , Id to verify to FaceTime
I think we have a solution if you are not able to get an email address to verify correctly in FaceTime on your iPad. If you go to Settings>General and then scroll to the bottom of the page...you'll see Reset Settings. Select that and then select Reset All Settings. Once you have done this you should be able to set up FaceTime normally again.
This worked for us after hours of frustration!
Hope this helps someone....

Why will PDF not open from email?
I recently modified my Adobe Reader 9.1 (with instructions from the bank) to be able to electronically sign documents.
Since then I can not open any PDF documents from email. I went back and reversed the changes I made. I uninstalled Adobe and reinstalled it. No luck.
I have to save the documents and open them from Windows Explorer.
Any Ideas?A fast workaround for PDF problem (See my original post)
In Firefox:
Open Tools > Options > Under Main tab click Save files to > click Browse
Scroll up or down to find where you want it to go (I put mine under Documents because it's the easiest to find).
Click New folder and label it something you will quickly recognize.
Now when you click on a PDF attachment it will automatically be sent to that file and you can double click or open
it in Adobe Reader
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
(Note) If I use Internet Explorer (I have not used IE in years) I can open PDF's from Hotmail with out a problem.
I like Firefox better so I will continue to use the quick workaround until somebody finds a fix.
If you use IE, here are the instructions for saving PDF files.
Click
to open Windows Mail.
Open a message that contains an attachment by double-clicking it
in the message list.
In the message window, click the File menu,
and then click Save Attachments.
Select the folder where you want to save the attachments.
By default,
Windows Mail saves attachments in your
Documents folder. If you want to save the attachments to a different folder,
click Browse, and then select a folder.
Select the attachments that you want to save, and then click Save.

Why Will Facetime not let me sign in?
I got my iPod Touch 4 in San Francisco Apple Store, December 2010. Apple Store Rep helped me set it all up.
Everything has been working fine, until a week or so ago when, out of the blue, my FaceTime just stopped working.
When I click on the FaceTime button, It stops at a screen with a couple options:
"Initiate session" (where my original email and passwords are already typed in)
and "Create new Session”
It keeps telling me my password is wrong when I never changed it. If I try to create a new session it says my Email account already exists!!
History:
I tried clicking on the initiate session while it keeps telling me my password is wrong.
I even erased the email address and the password and typed it all again, to make sure there us no extra spaces typed in there.
After several attempts, I signed in at Apple.com to change my password. I was not aware of the uppercase letter requirement for FaceTime, since an Apple Rep set my iPod up for me. So I created a new password with all small case letters and a few numbers. I still could not sign in facetime, although I could update other apps, enter my account at Apple.com etc.
So a friend of mine told me to change the password back to what it was (including the upper case letter). I did so. Still I can not not sign in -- "wrong password,” it says! (I guess the email is correct, since FaceTime does not say anything about the email, it even prompts me with the correct email.
I then tried creating a new session, but then, during the process of creating the id, it tells me my password cannot be the same as my Apple ID. I am at a loss.
And when attempting to create a new session, Facetime tells me the Email account already exists. I even signed in this Forum with my original email and reset password used in iPod Apple ID, the same originally used with Facetime, which is the one my friend told me to reset here at Appleid admin.
So I can do everything with my email and password except get into FaceTime. How come?
Do I need now a new E-Mail account and new password exclusively to access FaceTime. This sounds ridiculous!
I just cannot make my FaceTime work!
Can anyone help me? I have tried much of what some people has posted herein the discussion forum, such as the uppercase + number password, the DNS change to match my router, and/or the one from google; also I made sure there is no Firewall in my modem. After all attempts nothing has changed, I never changed my password to start with when FaceTime started saying Wrong Password! FaceTime will not let me in and nothing can make it work. I am abroad now, there is no Genius Apple Store where I am! Also my warranty to telephone assistance with Apple has expired! Please somebody who knows the secret to access FaceTime, I need help!Same thing happened to me. My son's iPod touch suddenly started indicating that my "username or PW had changed" or was "incorrect" so I paid Apple $30 to find out that all that was required was updating the software by plugging his iPod into my computer & syncing with iTunes. My problem was then solved.

I Want to update my email address in my apple account. It will not accept my valid Email and defaults me back to a closed account, an invalid email. Frustrating. I have tried several times. Maybe I should close my apple account and purchase a Blackberry.

I can relate to your old no-longer used email address issue. I just created a new AppleID, which you apparently did to post your question!!

So our school lets us use Macbook Airs for the school year, and it has facetime on it. I know facetime isn't blocked because like everyone else is using it. So I decide to give it a try. I click the icon, it says enter your apple ID. I dont have one, so I click to make one, and do so. I then enter my apple ID and click next. The screen reads "People will call you using your email address. What email address would you like to use?" I enter my email address in the box below the message, and then go to my email and click the link, and sign in, thus verifying the email. I go back to the facetime window, and click next. At the top it says Verified, but when I click next it doesn't go on to the next step, it simply blacks out the next button so that I can not click it, and after a few minutes a message comes up that says "Could not verify the email address. Please check your network connection and try again."
So that is the issue, please help!!!!!
*Note-I repeat that I know it is not blocked by the school because everyone else uses it just fine.*Hello BassoonPlayer,
Since you are using one of the the school's Macbooks, it is quite possible that the time and date are not properly set on the computer that you are using. FaceTime will not work if you do not have the proper time zone set up for the location that you are in. This past week, there were a two other Macbook users I've helped by simply telling them to set the Date/Time properly. By the way, you described your problem very well, which makes it easier for us to help you. Hope this solves your problem -- if not, post back and I can suggest other remedies.

I updated to iOS 8 on iPhone 5s and now iMessage will not verify my email address to use to send/ receive messages. It has said "Verifyng" beside it in settings since yesterday, but has not sent a verification email. I have also tried Adding it as a new email address several times, but get the same outcome. I can still send/ receive texts from my phone number, just not from the email address.
In my iCloud settings under Contact Information for that email address and it shows "pending". When I select "Resend Verification Email" I get "Cannot Connect to iCloud".Hello, Dorian071.
Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.

My facetime is not verifying my email though it shows an email has been sent for verification but no email is received. How can I have my facetime back.. Pls help.
I have it set up on both of mine and I know she has the app what I would have to check is if it is enable in hers, although prior to the cancellation of service she used to be able to make the calls, my concern is why I can't which is possible that it needs to be enable. Thank you!

Facetime not verifying email on mac
I can't get facetime to work on my computer no matter what I do. It allows me to log in but absolutely will not verify my email. It then tells me an email has been sent to verify, but that email never comes. Sometimes it says verified and just freezes. Any solutions?

Why will Adobe not accept my Verification Code when trying to email pictures?
Why will Adobe not accept my Verification Code when trying to email pictures as it is the code they sent me?
Message was edited by: MrsCharHi,
It might help if you could tell us your version of PSE and your operating system.
In between requesting the verification code and trying to apply it, you didn't change any of the settings in Edit -> Preferences -> Sharing did you?
Did you use Copy & Paste to copy the verification code from the email to PSE?
On the page that is asking for the code, you can always click on the resend button and it will send you the code again - worth a try.

Why is FaceTime not working in UAE
Why is FaceTime not working in UAE ?
Also is iMessage working ? In UAE ?OMG... Your answer doesn't help.
I am using Mac for 25 years and supported so many users that I do understand what the word Help means...
The fact that a gov doesn't allow the use, doesn't mean it is also not allowed worldwide and the telephone is supposed to work worlwide, be sold in another country one day where Facetime is welcome.
North Korea doesn't not allow cellphone, so it must be bad to use it there, isn't it?
By the way I have the solution via http://www.macworld.com/ forum but it is not allowed so... in mp the answer you will get, young Padawan, just if HELP is required. -
I am unable to move message it cannot be moved to the mailbox trash, why will it not delete my messages and how can I delete my messages
Hi Friend,
Do you set all the email information correctly?
Can you send/receive emails? If you are often receiving a message on the screen like "cannot contact the server...", check in Settings >> Mail, Contacts, Calendars >> "your name account", if all the fields are filled properly.
You must also turn off Restrictions in: Settings >> General >> Restrictions, because have an option " Allow Alterations - Accounts" that it maybe prevent alterations in your email account.
Hope it will be helpful -
