What to write in apple id. How to register an Apple ID on various devices

An Apple ID is required for all owners of Apple devices. Without it, it is impossible to download an application or music, purchase a movie or book, or use the iCloud network service. In addition, using Apple ID, users can place orders for products in Apple retail stores.

In this material we will look at 2 ways to create an Apple ID without a credit card, and also describe possible errors during registration.

It is worth noting that the process of creating a new identifier is quite simple. Users need to fill out a number of fields and come up with a password. Many people are confused by the need to enter payment card details when registering. This step is required to make purchases from the iTunes Store. But if desired, users may not fill out this item. To do this you need to use a little trick.

You can create an Apple ID in 2 ways - from a mobile device or using iTunes. However, we would like to immediately highlight several key features:

When registering, be sure to indicate your existing E-mail. In the future, you will receive a link to complete registration.
Apple does not allow you to register an Apple ID under 13 years of age. In addition, some restrictions apply for users under 18 years of age.

By the way, registering in the App Store requires the same steps, and many people confuse these concepts. It's just that in this case, the ID is created automatically. But you can register in the App Store with a ready-made Apple ID.

I absolutely welcome you! iTunes, App Store, Apple ID, iCloud and many other incomprehensible terms fall on the head of the person who purchased Apple equipment for the first time. It’s okay, we’ll sort it all out with you. And today we’ll talk about the most important thing - what is an Apple ID? And this is nothing more than a unique account or identifier in the Apple ecosystem. By the way, a very important thing!

Why? Because it is the Apple ID that allows you to fully enjoy all the services and functions that Apple technology offers - without it, your iPhone or iPad simply will not work to its fullest :)

Includes two main parameters:

Email (to which registration takes place).
Password (you specify yourself).

Actually, the Apple ID consists of these two parts. The remaining parameters (address, zip code, phone number, security question) are not so important, but they will definitely be useful for account recovery (if suddenly).

This thing is absolutely irreplaceable, because roughly speaking, without it, your device is nothing more than just a set of materials and microcircuits. No, of course, the iPhone will be able to make calls, the iPad will be able to access the Internet, and the iPod will be able to play music, but a truly huge world of possibilities opens up when you register in the system.

Briefly, what is an Apple ID for?

Make purchases in the App Store (games, applications).
Download music and videos from iTunes.
Use the iCloud service (Don’t know what it is? The answer is).
and them.
Use FiceTime and iMessage.
Lock your device, erase all data and find it if lost.
Much more...

It also stores all data about the applications you have purchased and downloaded. For example, you downloaded a game for free, and a year later look - it already costs 99 rubles. However, you can always reinstall it without paying a penny.

This is used by many sellers who offer to “upgrade” your phone or tablet, that is, download a lot of programs and games.

The idea is that they enter their account (which has already made purchases) and download applications to the device.

I strongly advise you not to use this service because:

It costs a lot of money (from 1000 rubles to infinity - it depends on the greed of the store).
They most likely will not give you the password for your account. And without it, it is impossible to update programs and games, as well as download new ones.
Well, as a rule, the seller does not ask what exactly is needed, but installs everything (the main thing is that there is more). Then it turns out that there are very few really necessary applications there.

As you understand, this is just wasted money.

In general, in order to fully use the device, you need to create your own, unique Apple ID. This should only be your account! But we’ll look at how to do this in as much detail as possible!

“Create a single identifier for all Apple products, because I had a vision that this would be very convenient and would win us an audience,” said the great prophet Steve Jobs at one of the board meetings of the Apple Corporation. Maybe the text was a little different, but the meaning was conveyed accurately. Apple ID is one of the most comprehensive identifiers in the world.

What is an Apple ID for?

So, Apple ID is your identifier in the environment of all services that Apple represents. Moreover, this identifier allows you to activate devices purchased in special stores. Your device will not be able to function at its full potential unless you activate it using your or someone else's Apple ID account. Despite the initial opinion that such technology is inconvenient, Apple gadgets are leaders in the smart device sales market. First of all, because of the degree of security that Apple products guarantee. Of course, nothing will protect you from a pickpocket or a group of athletic looking people with fittings in their hands. But Apple's gadget security system can turn your beautiful, functional phones into a useless pile of plastic if they fall into the wrong hands. And no one but yourself can make the tablet show movies again, or the phone make calls and send messages. Statistics say that theft of i-devices is the lowest among all gadgets. Largely thanks to the Apple ID - it guarantees you the convenience and security of all Apple devices.

How to register and create an Apple ID in the App Store

Given that the identifier is used in many services, it can also be registered in different services. This frees you from having to use one application that may not be used again.

One of the most popular ways to register an Apple ID is through an iPhone or iPad.

Find and open the App Store application. Open the App Store application
Scrolling to the very bottom of the application page, we find a star icon with the caption “Selection”. Click the icon and in the drop-down menu click on the “Login” button.
The “Login” button opens the identification menu
In the next menu, click on “Create an Apple ID”.
Using the “Create Apple ID” button, we begin registering an Apple ID
Now we enter our data, first we need to select the country and click “Next”.
Having selected your country of residence, click “Next”
We accept the user agreement with the corresponding button.
We agree to the Apple user agreement
Next, we enter information from the list of requested data:
- email address to which the confirmation letter will be sent;
- a password that must contain letters (both uppercase and lowercase) and numbers - at least 8 characters in total;
- security questions (and answers for them). This is necessary so that if you lose your password, you can restore your account;
- Date of Birth.
We agree or refuse to subscribe to advertising and promotions from the App Store and click “Next”.
Agree or refuse App Store advertising and promotions and click “Next”
The next step is to enter your home address and phone number.
Enter your home address and contact phone number and click “Next”
Next, enter the payment method for goods and services provided by the Apple store. This could be a credit card (then you need to enter its number, the security code on the back, as well as the date until which this card is valid for use).
And at the last step we confirm the email address. To do this, go to your e-mail, open the letter from Apple and follow the link indicated in the letter.

Voila! You have created your own Apple ID, with which you can make purchases and use all the services of the corporation.

How to Create an Apple ID Using the iTunes App

To create an Apple ID on a Mac or PC, you need the iTunes application.

How to create an Apple ID without a credit card

In most cases, when creating an Apple ID account, you immediately need to enter your bank card or phone account information, from which funds will be withdrawn for purchases made. But you can bypass this point if you only need an identifier.

Other possible ways to create an Apple ID

There are a couple more ways to register a new Apple ID:

using the “Setup Assistant” when you first turn on the device and activate it;
through the settings of an already activated gadget.

The Setup Assistant will prompt you to create a new ID. Follow the assistant's tips and instructions above, and registration will go as quickly as possible.

If you activated your device, but did not create an Apple ID during activation (for technical or personal reasons), you can create an ID without any additional applications.

Problems when registering and creating an Apple ID and ways to solve them

There are not many such problems, the main one being the lack of communication with the server. But there may be several reasons why such a problem arises.

If you receive a similar error on your gadget, you should check:

active Internet connection, whether it works;
ISP settings, as far as possible (there is a possibility that the ISP is blocking access to one or more Apple servers);
the novelty of your device. If the phone is taken from your hands, then it is better to roll back to factory settings. The owner's old settings could lead to blocking of the Internet or individual segments of it.

If this error occurs on your computer, there are not many more options:

check your internet connection to see if everything is working;
update the iTunes application to the latest version;
check your computer for viruses and, oddly enough, for antiviruses. Some security programs have been caught blocking access to completely safe and trusted sites;
Check your VPN and proxy server settings.

If you do not receive an email, check your Spam or similar folder (depending on your service provider). Also make sure you enter your email address correctly.

In the end, we should not forget that Apple servers are not ironclad (even though they are ironclad) and may well be overloaded or may be undergoing technical work.

Creating a universal identifier is easy, as is the benefit and convenience that comes from using it. One account can be used on all your Apple devices and in all services and stores of the corporation.

Today we will talk about how to create an icloud account for an iPhone via a computer. Without an Apple ID, it is impossible to use equipment from the Cupertino company.

What is it used for?

Your iCloud account is your primary user ID. It is used in all services of the apple company, as well as to activate branded gadgets. A third-party user will not be able to log out of your account on their own, which allows you to secure your device.

Apple ID is also used to remotely access a lost device. In a previously published article we talked about how to do this.

Create an account

There are two ways to register a new profile on your computer. Let's look at each of them in more detail.

Via the site

To create an account via PC, you must follow these steps:

Note! In the site window you can change your details and payment method.

Via iTunes

The second method is registration through the iTunes service.

Note! For example, MacOS with built-in software is used. If you have Windows, install iTunes.

Open the program → “Account” tab → “Login”.
Create a new Apple ID.
Fill out the forms in the window → click “Continue”.
Fill out the second form with extended information → click “Continue”.
Select a payment method → click “Continue”
Accept the license agreement.

Hello everyone! We have already become acquainted with the identifier in the apple company system (). And at the end of the article, we came to the conclusion that we need to register an Apple ID to create our own unique account. And if it’s necessary, we’ll do it! Moreover, if you follow these instructions exactly, the whole process will not take you much time, and the effort will generally be minimal.

By the way, the article will discuss registering an Apple ID without any card (credit card). Why without it? In fact, you can come up with a lot of reasons. I won’t go too deep and will list only a few of them.

And here they are:

The simplest one is that not everyone has this same credit card.
Many people are afraid to enter their card details (although it is completely safe).
Some people only need free apps on the App Store.

If all these three points are not relevant to you, then at a certain stage (at which stage? all the details are below in the text), you will need to enter the “plastic” data.

In general, you can register an Apple ID at absolutely any time, both when you first turn on the device and after it. The scheme is almost the same everywhere. Here we will consider the second option, namely creating an account on an iPhone or iPad that we have already used for some time.

That is, we need:

Activated iPhone, iPod, iPad - the instructions here are universal, regardless of the gadget.
Wi-Fi connection or inserted SIM card (nothing will work without the Internet).

All is ready? Begin!

Take your device, unlock it and find the App Store icon in the menu, click.

Select any free game or application and install it. Attention! A free application is required.

Then we need a menu item to create an Apple ID.

A window to create a new account will appear. We see the choice of country or region, leaving Russia.

“Terms and conditions...” - we simply accept. It’s hard for me to imagine a person who will read this - it’s 60 pages after all :) Although, perhaps I don’t have a rich enough imagination :)

A data entry window opens.

A few important clarifications:

Be sure to enter a real email.
The password must contain at least 8 characters: numbers, letters of the English alphabet, and at least one capital letter. Write down or remember the password!
Age - you must indicate that you are at least 18 years old. If you have not yet reached adulthood, lie blatantly.

Very important! The specified e-mail and password will be your Apple ID! Save them, write them down on a piece of paper, and never show them to anyone.

Remember, this data is the only proof that the device belongs to you. To understand the seriousness of the situation, I advise you to read (especially pay attention to the last paragraph). Is everything done? Go ahead...

Payment information - select no (if you do not intend to use a credit card). Or (if you want to use the App Store to its full potential), we indicate the payment system, then enter all the necessary information. The item “iTunes gift cards...” is optional. Fill in the rest of the information.

A letter has been sent to the mailbox indicated above - open it, and of course follow the link to complete the process.

Congratulations, Apple ID registration (and completely free) is completed! And now you can use the App Store by installing freely distributed (or paid for) applications and games.

In my opinion, the instructions turned out to be quite detailed, but if you are tormented and haunted by various questions, then I always welcome them in the comments. Feel free to tell us about your problem - I will help, as they say, in any way I can :)
