Hi, I've encountered issues verifying my apple ID when trying to sign in. When requested to verify my account after I have typed in my email and password, after keying in the verification code sent to my email, they claim that my email is unavailable. I've tried to create a new apple ID with the same email that i used for verification, but they claim it is unavailable as well.
The Apple ID account you are dealing with must be someone else's since it is unavailable to you. Perhaps you have forgotten your Apple ID. So, you'll need to use account recovery.
