Cant verify Apple ID

Same issue, I worked on it from 11pm till 4am for an iPad birthday present...now I am at work with bloodshot eyes, tired as ****, and it still isn't working. Nice move Apple.....

Same here: tried to update e-mail address and when verifying found the same annoying messege over and over again. I can use iCloud, though. WEIRD, plz fix asap!

yea i got the same problem. was so excited that my ipad was shipped and then everything sucked. **** apple, i trusted you.

Same issue and it's rather frustrating.

The problem is all same here. I don't know exactly what to do!!!

I have been on the phone most of the day to Apple, they have no idea how long it will be before its fixed, I wanted to know if we can be notified when its all working, they said no just keep trying! how often do I try I asked? every minute, every hour, every day, will it be fixed this month? this Year?? she said I don't know, keep trying! This is why I never wanted a APPLE Product, I was only forced into getting one because we need to test an App!!!

What a ******** answer.

Same problem! Why are you not giving us any information on this Apple!!?

So we are all in the same boat here - waiting for Apple to realize that this is a real issue, with significant numbers of unhappy people locked out - I suppose as soon as Apple understand that people cannot buy iOS apps/tunes/Mac apps they will move fast to correct this and restore their revenue streams as well as customer well-being.

It's incredible. I receive the same answer from Italian Apple Support through a couple of phone call I did during the day. It will be fixed within the next 24/48 hours 😮😮😮😮😮

Unacceptable 😠 !!!!!!!!!!!!!
Please Fix It as soon as you can.

APPLE I CAN'T BUY YOUR PRODUCTS NOW.

FIRST YOU HAVE SLOW AND TERRIBLE SUPPORT.

SECOND I WASTE TOO MUCH TIME FOR WRITING AND I DIDN'T GET ANY ANSWER.

BUT THE PROBLEM IS THE SAME IN ALL COUNTRIES:

"This email address is already in use or you may already have an Apple ID associated with this email address. Please try again or sign in using your existing Apple ID."

same issue here. now I'm getting auto-generated text messages from Sprint 911-4 saying theres an issue with the Apple ID

@RColaiori

They said the problem for all of us will be fixed within 24 hours or just your case?

Did they say the know what the problem is and they're working on it or just told you politely to f... off..?

I have the same problem in Sweden 😟

This email address is already in use or you may already have an Apple ID associated with this email address. Please try again or sign in using your existing Apple ID.

Same problem for me... first apple product, third major upstacle since I received it last night.

1. Had to chop my sim card to make it fit.

2. ITunes did not recognize my new iphone. Got it working after a few reboots.

3. Now I cannot verify my brand new Apple-ID, even though I get the verification email/link.

Btw, it took a while to find a proper translation of the stupid norwegian error message so that I could see that other had the same problem. In norwegian it reads: Denne Apple-ID er allerede i bruk. Dersom du opprettet denne ID-en, kan du bare logge deg på med din Apple-ID og passord. Dersom den ikke tilhører deg, prøv igjen med et annet navn.
