I was given an iPad at work and had to make an Apple account to use it. Every time, the form on the website errored out with "Your account can currently not be created" without any further information. By trial and error, I figured out that creating an account with the exact same information on the iPad worked. Not the best first impressions of the "it just works" company.

Ok, it's not just because I'm trying this from my Linux computer with fake phone numbers to jailbreak the stupid iPad 3 I found in a drawer (and on which the registration form of course doesn't work anymore). Thanks.
