I have to verify my Apple ID but Im not receiving any mail.
Tried 2 accounts, no spam, no where else.
Tried to login into iCloud, nothing works.
I don't get ANY verification mail.
Any one any idea?
iPad, iOS 4.3.3
Here's the FIX for iCLOUD not sending the Verification Email.
I spent all day (yesterday) trying to resolve this. Here's my FIX.
1. Create a new email address (I made a new Gmail account)
2. Go to https://appleid.apple.com/
3. Click manage accounts.
4. Sign in (with old/original email address), and change your Primary email address to your NEW Address.
5. Your icloud should verify right away.
You make think creating a new email is to much work, but I tried everything, I even called apple and they wanted me to pay 29.99 for apple care.... I just wanted a FREE ANSWER and HERE IT IS.

same here. Been trying all day. Even if I login to "Manage my apple id" online, click Verify, no email is sent.
Anyone from Apple reading these posts? Help.
Didn't want to, but I did what Favot suggested (easy for me since I manage my own domain) and it worked. However, it's totally ridiculous (and incompetent) that this issue has not been resolved by Apple. It's not hard to tell a person that the email address is associated with multiple IDs and what they can do about it. Instead, Apple, in its great wisdom and infallibility has deemed that the appropriate response is no response at all. No warning, no hint, no error, nothing. It just doesn't work. I call that arrogance and incompetence. Apple's attitude is "who cares."
Hi,
I can understand your problem.Did you checked in your spam box if the email is there.And still if it is not there then you can verify it here ;- https://iforgot.apple.com/cgi-bin/WebObjects/DSiForgot.woa/wa/findYourAppleID?ap p_type=ext&app_id=93&returnURL=https://appleid.apple.com/cgi-bin/WebObjects/MyAp pleId.woa&language=US-EN
same problem for me 😟
I had the same problem. After much frustration, I found that I had two other, older Apple IDs (not email addresses) that used the the same email address as the one I was trying to create/convert my Apple ID to. Click on the link "Find Out" on the My Apple ID page to see if you have other Apple IDs associated with a particular email address. You need to log in to manage each unused Apple ID and change the associated email to something else; don't worry about verification. You can then sucessfully create and verify your desired email address as a new Apple ID and use it for iCloud, App Store . . .

I had an apple ID with email address... so then I created icloud id... and i wasn't getting verifying email... basically I followd above steps and converted non email ID into email ID (icloud id that i created)
thanks
I contacted Apple App Store Support via email at http://www.apple.com/support/mac/app-store/ . It took several back and forth emails but they FINALLY fixed it for me. They were actually very responsive. Each reply email from them took an hour or less. I was surprised because I had heard so many complaints about the support people. But they were helpful, responsive and ultimately fixed the issue. I have no idea what they did but it suddenly worked. I dont know how you contacted the app store but try the link above and give it a shot. Nothing else worked for me so it can't hurt, right?
I had this same problem for over a hour. My problem is finally fixed. I clicked on "Reset your password" on this page " https://appleid.apple.com/cgi-bin/WebObjects/MyAppleId.woa?localang=en_US ". I actually received an email to change my password! After I changed my password, I logged back in and it then showed I was verified! Never received a verfication email.
Hi for all, here is you solution for all of you,
When you creat an Apple id for the first time, it may happen the sometime the confirmation mail isnt sent to you mailing adress, unfortunetly; and hopefully there is a way to refresh those bogs by resetting the password of the account created :
steps :
1- creat the apple id here :
2- go throught this link to reset the password of the account already created a few second ago
You will receive an email notification to your mailling adress wich was used to creat your Apple id
Naw, go throught this mail and clic on the link to reset your password
******************************************************************************** ***********ones its done .......
3- clic on this link to manage your account :
Enter the apple id and the new password wish is naw correctly set up, then clic on verify my email adress, here we go naw you will find the mail confirmation on your mailling adress, that you can verify it, just clic on the link on the received mail on you inbox.
GOOD LUCK for all.

hi,
If you downloaded your apps using an apple id (A) you cant update them using an apple id (B).
The same apple id wish was used to download must be used to update, else it will not and never work.
try to make sure that your apple id is correctly created :
if not nothing will work
if yes, sent the email notification that the system will propose to you in the same page by clicking on NEXT button.
good luck.
Here's a workaround that will grant an email verification. This also bypasses the emergency email.
After that, Apple ID will send an email with a link to reset password. Once the password is reset, you'll be able to "Manage your Apple ID" and change your security questions.
I call iPhone customer support around 3PM with the problem and was told that "there are over 57 million people trying to upload their iPhones so the servers are just bogged down."
I could understand that, but it's taken over 7 hours now - can't imagine they're that bogged down.
I was able to login to iCloud using an ID I created specifically for FaceTime; this ID ended in@mac.com. This worked. My trial and error was using apple account I use for iTunes payment and music. I think there is a disconnect between accounts. The funny part is that after I set iCloud they wanted to create another account for e-mail and notes with a @me.com account. Apple needs to create a way to merge accounts. This is big issue that needs to be fixed ASAP.
I'm in the same boat. Mind it happened after merging to iCloud. I noticed my 2 purchased ringtones won't sync. And i can't purchase anything from iTunes store on my phone because i haven't "verifed my apple ID"
Can't verify Apple ID! NO email is sent??
