Create an Apple Account

Open the Apple Account website below in Safari on the iPad and find "Create Your Apple Account." Confirm that the address is account.apple.com before entering your information.

Apple Official Interface ReferenceWeb Registration Entry

1

Enter your name, date of birth, actual country or region, regular email address, and a new password, followed by a phone number you can use long-term. A +86 phone number may be required when creating an account in mainland China. Follow the page prompts and do not enter someone else's information.

The registration email is also used for sign-in and recovery. Use a long-term email you control, not a temporary one. Store the password securely yourself; the company records only the agreed recipient email and never collects passwords or codes.

If the email address is incorrect, return to the previous page and correct it. Do not continue with an address that cannot receive messages. If you already have an account, return to the sign-in guide instead of creating another one.

Open the inbox for the email address you just entered and find the Apple verification email. Return to the sign-up page and enter the verification code from the email, then follow the prompts to complete phone verification. Enter verification codes only on the Apple page; do not forward them to the coordinator.

After the page confirms completion, keep the account and password secure. Successful registration does not mean that the iPad is signed in; continue with the sign-in guide below. If Apple later asks for additional account information, provide accurate information.

Email already used may mean an account exists. Do not recreate it. Check spelling, spam, and phone number for missing codes, and record the full message.
