Q: Verification Failed.

Well it's 5/14/15 and I too still get this error.  So much for the fix in a few days!  If my boss didn't buy this 6+ I would have bought a Windows based phone!!

I hope you are able to find a solution soon Mac!

Thank you. This worked for me.

fantastic. Worked in one minute

thanks for your help

while doing this trick, I had received this message "this will delete all network settings, returning them to factory defaults." I wonder if my apple ID will delete too?  and if after resetting these setting i could use my own apple ID?

I have follow what you have said, I did a reset network setting. but It still show me " continuously updating in Settings"

how to do? do I need to wait 2hrs?

Had the same problem.  Reset Network Settings, then signed back in to iCloud.  Note that preferences aren't remembered, so I had to turn off everything I didn't want again (backup, mail, photo stream, etc.).  iMessage appears to be working much better than it has for some time.

Thanks!

HI - unfortunately I can't seem to apply any of the workarounds as my Wifi won't work.  It keeps searching for a network and the App Store says it cannot connect, although 3G connections are active and work on all other apps.

Any help would be appreciated as this is driving me insane now.

Similar issue here. I am not able to connect to the icloud account through the iphone because of some reason. Tried the network settings and it didn't help much. I am actually trying to disable find my iphone in order to do a complete restore for the iphone and icloud won't let me do that either.

This did not help too

Wow this actually worked.

Text messages would have time stamps in the 70s

And Instagram post would have pictures posted 2000 weeks ago

iCloud logged in without a problem

Check that your date and time are correctl.

1_ download Find my i phone

2_ open it and click on Erase iphone

3_ write your pass

4_ write your phone number

5_ it will restart and then you will doing the setup again

6_ then setup it like a new phone

Thanks for the solution. You saved my time

I had the same problem however I...

1) Downloaded the 'Find My iPhone" app in the app store

2) Then, I opened the 'Find My iPhone" app and signed into my iCloud

3) Finally, I went back to iCloud in the Settings app

The "Verification Failed. There was an error connecting to iCloud." notification did not pop up after that. And voila, success! I was finally able to sign out of iCloud.
