After updating to iOS9 I can not sign into iCloud and restore my backup. Now I do not have access to anything on my iPad air. Any way to fix this?
iPad Air, iOS 9.0.1
I resolved this after speaking to Apple Support. The following does not delete any data or media. It will remove things like background, screen lock pin and wifi authentication - you'll need your WiFi password to hand before you do this.
1. Select Settings--> General --> Reset --> Reset All Settings
2. Confirm Reset All Settings
3. The phone will restart. Takes about 2 minutes.
4. Once restarted, go back inot Settings --> Wifi
5. Re-select your Network and enter your password
6. Re-try logging in to iTunes and/or iCloud with your username and password.
This worked for me. I hope it works for you.
Remember to re-add your screen lock password.
I have same issue on iPhone 5, tried many posts without success then I figured out it's simply not connected to wifi. I connected the iPhone to a wifi and was able to turn off the Find my iphone.
OP:
The Time and Date settings need to be updated back to current.
I found that restoring all settings worked for me, followed by restarting the device. First you could try restarting network settings if you did not want to do a full restart.
I had the same problem on my son's iPad mini. I rebooted the iPad, then went in as other posters suggested to settings and reset my settings. It worked and I was able to get into the App Store and iCloud.
ALSO--I use Amazon Cloud Drive. I was uploading files on my desktop computer to Amazon Cloud Drive. I don't know for sure, but maybe this was conflicting with signing into Apple's iCloud and app store in my son's iPad Mini. Not sure because I'm not an technical expert. But just to make sure, I logged off the Amazon Cloud Drive before rebooting my son's iPad and resetting the settings.
I had same issue on my iPhone 5S. For me it helped to log into Apple ID in my browser and remove the device (iPhone 5s) from the account. Be aware that all backups will be removed. Then I could restore iPhone as a new device and contacts etc were of course still in the iCloud account synced.
If anyone gets the verification error on your phone all you have to do is log off the wifi and go login your iTunes then it should go away.
I was having the same problem and realised my date and time were wrong
Hey Bro Just Check Your Device Time And Date.
Hey i found out you need to check date and time settings if not current date wont work!
This was it!! The date/time was not set to automatically...weird! Clicked that on and it fixed the problem...thanks!
I had the same problem and was trying to do erase all content and settings. It kept asking for password and not accepting it. I then tried just reseting all settings. And it worked.
Check date and time
Have the same issue when sharing internet by Personal Hotspot, got it solved by turning Wifi off.....
Make sure you are connected to the WiFi network.
Thank you! I had changed my Apple ID successfully on my Mac, but logging out of WiFi finally got the verification to work on my phone too.
Verification failed : There was an error connecting to apple id server
