Hey there Peggy1234,
It sounds like you are trying to sign into your iCloud account but are getting a message saying that the account isnt verified. You can resend yourself the verification email using these steps from the following article:
iCloud: Account troubleshooting
http://support.apple.com/kb/ts3988
If you can't sign in due to the alert “Account not verified - Check your email for instructions for verifying your account”:
- Close and reopen iCloud preferences before attempting to sign in to iCloud again.
- If that does not resolve the issue, check your email folder and Junk folder for a verification email sent from Apple.
- If there is no verification email in your email folder or Junk folder, click the Resend Verification Email button in iCloud preferences.
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
Regards,
Sterling
