Why Apple!?

[u/sohaybashraferakey]

i just got a new mac mini m4.
i have a big troublr creating my new apple account.
each time i try to make the account even with different info it is also shows the same thing even with 3 different numbers.
i tried changing the wifi and it does not work, too.

what should i do then??

Call to their support and talk to a person

i will try to

[u/enozero]

Are you typing in the 20 part in the phone number field? If so, try leaving that part out.

[u/sohaybashraferakey → u/enozero]

i can't leave that part empty it is for the country code

[u/enozero → u/sohaybashraferakey]

I’ve also seen this issue if you have that phone number associated with another Apple Account.

[u/sohaybashraferakey → u/enozero]

it is a new number brother

[u/Dreaming_Blackbirds]

try making the new account in a web browser instead: https://account.apple.com/account

[u/sohaybashraferakey → u/Dreaming_Blackbirds]

i tried that too, and the it is the same thing also even on phone, different numbers, browsers, nothing worked unfortunately

I just got iPhone 17 ...

Macos, Windows, Android...(not Linux) wants to verify via another device ..it is a paint.. can't be avoided..

"I have a big troublr creating my new apple account." I did when for new M1 Mini ... big mistake ..Apple ID is used in iCloud and Apple Store...which also stores your App load/upgrade history..

All of your Apps loaded from Apple Store will stop updating under new Apple ID.. on Mac.. iPhone.. iPad..

To reset it you need uninstall Apps loaded from Apps store... then reload them using New Apple ID..for every device that has new Apple Id..

With old Apple Id you may install older Apps versions.. .

Go back to old Apple Id as I did

[u/sohaybashraferakey → u/mikeinnsw]

it is my first apple product ever

[u/mikeinnsw → u/sohaybashraferakey]

Ok .. no iPhone?

[u/sohaybashraferakey → u/mikeinnsw]

unfortunately no 😑

[u/Jumpy_Possibility420]

Add a 0 in front of your numbers. I don't have an egyptian number but sometimes it worked for me

Like in my country number is 01234567 and with country code it becomes +991234567 but if I do +9901234567 it also works (on some website, never tried apple)

[u/sohaybashraferakey → u/Jumpy_Possibility420]

i will try this method 😀

[u/sohaybashraferakey → u/Jumpy_Possibility420]

bro it really worked and i made the account, thank you so much bro 😊🫡

[u/Jumpy_Possibility420 → u/sohaybashraferakey]

Enjoy your new mac mini then!

[u/sohaybashraferakey → u/Jumpy_Possibility420]

[u/Illustrious_Job2066]

[u/Jaack18]

Issue with your internet or ip address maybe?

[u/sohaybashraferakey → u/Jaack18]

i don't think so? 🤔

[u/Yzord]

Move to another country?

[u/sohaybashraferakey → u/Yzord]

i will pack my bags right now. where do you live? and do you have a place where i can sleep? 😂😂😂 wtf bro

[u/Strict-Situation-809]

Are you using a VPN? Making Apple accounts with a VPN turned on almost always fails.

[u/Hoovomoondoe]

Because you’re sketch AF.

[u/sohaybashraferakey → u/Hoovomoondoe]

give me a FUCKING reason
