Q: Why won't icloud work on my ipad 3? I had it set up in store but keeps going round and round showing 'account verifying' Why? Really annoying.

I bought an ipad 3 and had it set up for icloud instore. Despite logging in often, I still have 'Account Verifying' showing all the time. What's the problem?

Intuitive my arse.

    Did you respond to the verification email from Apple by clicking the Verify Now link?  It should have been sent to the email address you used to set up your iCloud account.  Check the spam/junk folder as well as the inbox.  If it isn't there, go to https://appleid.apple.com, click Manage your Apple ID, sign in, click on Name, ID and Email addresses on the left, then to the right click Resend under your Primary Email Address to resend the verification email.
