I am currently unable to login to one of my domains on Google Apps (i.e., www.google.com/a/example.com returns an error). When I try to register it, it says the domain is already registered. Fun.

It isn't my primary domain, so I haven't bothered to pester one of my Googler friends to see if they can do something about it.

Similar thing happened to me; it turns out someone else had somehow setup an account a couple years ago with my domain (I've owned it since 2000 or so). I was able to get control of the google apps settings for it (they give a couple options, such as adding a DNS entry). However, it was useless because the previous person had set it up in Russian and I couldn't find a way to change it.

I had the same issue and contacted Google Apps support using PIN of another account I already had. I told them the issue and they basically cleared out all the internal Apps data of the previous domain owner. After 48 hours I was able to set it up as new with Apps.
