Apple Business Connect Will Not Accept My Valid EIN I recently got an email from apple asking me to switch from an Apple Business register account to an apple business connect account. So, I started signing up for Apple business connect but every time I get to the final slide where it asks for my federal tax ID it keeps telling me my tax ID is invalid... I've tried it both with and without the dash and even with a space instead of a dash. I've tried entering it from my iphone, ipad and again on my laptop. I am copying it directly from the IRS paperwork and I know the number I am entering is valid. Apple, Please help.

Someone else used my email to sign up for Apple ID I'm trying to set up an AppleID, but someone else (likely many years ago) used my email address to sign up for one. I can reset the password (since I own the email), but then it asks me to answer the security questions. The problems are that I don't know the answers, and the questions are in German. How do I get access to the account?

Maybe because it would be exposed to an estimated 3 million forum user worldwide?
