Jun 20, 2012 11:40 AM in response to KyleDHernandezby pvonk,Right now iCloud is down, so it will take time. In the past, there have been users who never got their verification email, so they had to reapply. But right now, don't try since the system is down.

May 31, 2016 10:16 PM in response to pvonkby emc1905,Hello there "plonk":
My iCloud just seemed to appear one day. I know...sounds very flaky. I never applied proper and I guess that is why I never received this verification email that people refer to. Ever since, there have been multiple issues that have arisen. For example, I keep getting an error message saying that there is a problem with my hotmail.com account. This is my apple ID and I was told that I HAD to use an apple ID in order to actually HAVE an apple ID.
Additionally, My email access for hotmail.com messages, are not being transferred over to where emails are not all being transferred to my Android phone anymore. Trés odd.
