Hi Alex, Apple are very chatty lately, I've been receiving this email also. You can verify your email address by logging in at http://appleid.apple.com/ by manually typing that address into your web browser, rather than clicking the link in the email. Also read the support article below, which includes details about verifying your AppleID: http://support.apple.com/kb/he37 Cheers, Ronni
