Steps:
- Logged in to iCloud with a valid email address after installing Yosemite.
- Sent the verification email.
- Tapped on the "verify" link in the email.
- Email account verified says the web page
However, System Preferences > iCloud still says "Account Not Verified". I tried re-sending the email but a second one never gets sent.
I also tapped on the link for the first email a second time and it says "Account already verified".
I also rebooted.
Also note that I just upgraded from Mountain Lion to Yosemite. However, this is the first time I added iCloud.
Any ideas?
Does your login work within your Browser? – davidbaumann – 2015-01-05T05:44:25.950
Good suggestion! I tried this and when I try to login I get a CSS popup which says "Account Not Verified" and "Check your email at <email> for instructions on how to verify your account". However, I received an email to "chris@example.com" when I expected to receive it at "admin@example.com" saying someone logged into my iCloud account. Strange, so I tapped the link to manage the account, and lo and behold my apple ID is "admin" but the email address was "chris". – Christopher – 2015-01-05T17:54:57.897
There was an option to make my email the same as my apple ID which I exercised. An immediate verification occurred and I am now able to log into iCloud. I set these email addresses up years ago and so for whatever reason I set the email address different from the apple ID. Anyway, problem solved. – Christopher – 2015-01-05T17:56:20.373
