When your host does not accepts CNAME you have to use IP address to setup Google Apps. Some Domain hosts don’t like to use CNAMEs.
You can give them the following IP addresses:
Domain Verification: For domain verification you need to create a Cname with string provided by Google Apps. You can use following IP address for this to create three A records:

After verification, if you want to have custom urls, e.g. www.mydomain.com,
mail.mydomain.com, you may have to give them following IP in lieu of ghs.google.com
