Aple - this email address is taken

My sister-in-law got a new iPad for Christmas. She went to register her existing email address with apple for this device, but got the message, "this email address is taken". Well, yes it is; by her! How do we get past this message and tell Apple to use this address? Note that I was not involved in her initially trying to register, so I don't know what else transpire to get her to this point.

The sister-in-law and computer disappeared back to France, so I have not been able to pursue this further. Thanks for your input.
