lost my iCloud security code help

Lost my iCloud Security Code, Help!

Are you talking about the access code specifically for your iOS device? The page you came here from - linked at the top of this page - tells you what it takes (basically delete the device).

But you said "iCloud", which has nothing to do with the password. You have 2 steps enabled audit? (Otherwise, the rest of this post is not relevant.) This requires you to have two of the three things - your password, a "trusted device" where code can be sent or received when you configure the recovery key. If you lose two of those three things no one can help you, including Apple. I hope you meant password, which means simply wipe the device and restore your data from your backup.

  • How to reset the iCloud security code

    Can you reset the Security Code iCloud until one has the entered incorrectly too many times?

    (I am connected to iCloud on my MacBook and want to connect on my iPad, but am unsure of the security code to use, so I want to reset it on the MacBook.)

    Apple Help topic for If you register your iCloud Security Code wrong too many times... says:

    On a Mac using OS X Yosemite or later:

    Choose the Apple menu > System Preferences, and then click iCloud.

    Click Options next to keychain.

    Click on change the Security Code, and enter a new cryptogram iCloud.

    My prefs do not show 'Options' beside keychain. (Keyring is enabled).

    I have to go through the process of entry that he incorrectly too many times on the iPad before 'Options' will appear on the Mac?

  • icloud security code

    Why did when I try to turn on iCloud Keychain he ask me if I want to authenticate with my security code OR device, and when I choose security code and then correctly enter my security code, always wants to send another code by SMS to a device for approval?

    What is the point of giving me a choice of security mechanism of GOLD code if it is going to require a device anyway?  Is there something I'm missing about this procedure?

    The two methods are:

    (1) require the authentication of a device previously authorized.  This means that the iCloud Keychain system will send a pop-up at all your devices that are currently already using iCloud keychain and authenticated.  This is the easiest method, as it will simply pop up on your other devices and you authenticate with your password Apple ID to give your new device access.  Fact.

    (2) use the Code Security and verification of device Code.  This is where you enter your security code you created for iCloud keychain and then enter the number of secondary authentication received (usually via SMS).  This method for those who may have a backup plan for the first option.  As in my case, I have the SMS authentication will my phone number and my wife's phone number.  While my wife does not access my iCloud Keychain, I can use him as a point of authentication in case I'm not the #1 option.

    In your case, you are clearly able to make both options with your iPhone because its iCloud authenticated in Keychain (already using the service) as well as put in place for the secondary SMS verification.

    Well, I hope this explains why there are two options and that they could be used differently.  At the end of the day, it allows multiple options for different scenarios.

    iCloud often ask a security code 4 digits.  I have no idea what it is, my code is six digits.  What is the 4 digit version and where I put or find it?

    Have you implemented 2-step audit on your Apple ID? If you do this, then whenever you connect to icloud.com you are likely to be asked for the security code, which will be sent by SMS to your device of 'trust' - mainly the mobile phone you have registered with Apple.

    The six-digit code that you think is probably the password in your iOS device, which is quite distinct.

  • lost on iCloud photos?

    Try to go to iCloud.com from a browser on a computer and check your photos. So here, they are not lost.

    If you restore your iPad to factory settings, you should not lose their. Try to download:

  • He asks to randomly send me my security code, even if the watch is on my wrist

    My watch sporadically asks me to return my security code, even if the watch is always on my wrist.

    HI - try these steps

    Make sure the wrist detection is enabled:

    -On your iPhone, in the application of Eve, go to: Watch My > General > wrist Detection - turn on.

    Make sure you wear your watch fits on top of your wrist. With wrist detection and active access code, your watch will automatically lock if it believes it has been removed from your wrist. A bunch of cowards can trigger this by allowing the watch temporarily lose contact with the skin (including if the garment made its way under).

    Some wrist tattoos can also affect performance of the sensor, potentially causing the same behavior.

    Otherwise, it can help to restart your iPhone and your watch. Turn on both devices off the power together first, and then restart your iPhone before restarting your watch:

    -To switch off your watch: press and hold the button side until you see the cursor off the power; slide it to turn off;

    -To switch on: press and hold the side button until you see the Apple logo.

    Hi Becc,

    Essentially, the procedure is to configure the router for the specific appropriate for your router, and your ISP and your computers and intranet security settings.  You do not block your computers, you encode router transmissions so that others cannot use it without the username and password.  Then you configure your computers (or other devices connected) so that they know the appropriate codes and can communicate with the router.

    When I came across this myself, I discovered that the manufacturer of the router charged; However, I discovered that my ISP supports this particular router and they helped me as well with the router and my computer for free as part of their service - so I'd personally start with your ISP to see if they will help you.

    The following article gives the basic instructions for the router (and a few different), but it only covers the router (and not your connected devices) and it indicates the options to use but sometimes 'the best' is not appropriate or accessible with your ISP or router and the computers (which means that it's OK to learn about it in a general sense (, but you need to communicate with people to get the correct settings).  For example I would use WPA2 but my ISP doesn't support WPA is what I use (and if I tried the other it wouldn't work and I would have had no. clue what I was doing wrong and be stuck and confused). http://www.ehow.com/how_6942409_set-up-wireless-router-security.html.  So think of this as simply a presentation guide but use the following instead.

    In short, to access the router, go to any computer connected and click on start / all programs / accessories / right-click on command prompt, and then click Run as administrator.  Then type IPCONFIG/all.  For your first login, you should see a group of settings as a gateway by default (and possible other inputs) referring to a TCP/IP address (usually 192.168.0.1 or something similar to that).  This is the address of your router.

    Open now IE (or your browser) and in the address field where you can type www.microsoft.com, sometimes rather type the address of the router (for example, 192.168.0.1) and enter.  This should connect to the router where it will ask for a user name and password (almost certainly).  If you know, very well.  If this is not the case, the access provider manufacturer or router can help.  Many use default common (which you should change once get you it, but remember).  Certain combinations of username/password common name include admin/admin, admin/password, administrator/administrator/admin password, simply administrator or with any other admin for the password.

    There must be a security section.  Need you probably to get a security Type (WPA-Personal, WPA2-Personal,...), a Type of encryption (for example, TKIP, AES,...) and a security network (password thinking) key.  The first two depend too much from your ISP and the installation program to help me (and you may have different options or more also)-they need to tell you what to use.  The manufacturer of the router can probably help with this - but the ISP knows and can tell you.  Use a key strong you want it is hard to break.  Here is an article on the creation of strong passwords - for this and especially since you know that you used, I would out max and go even a little further than they suggest: http://www.microsoft.com/security/online-privacy/passwords-create.aspx.  I would choose one with 12 numbers which is a random set of letters lowercase, uppercase, numbers, and symbols - but also one you won't forget but that is anyone's guess (that you don't really want to not have to reset it).

    Once set, so even if not recommended by the router or the people of the ISP because if you forgot your password again, they will not be able to help the router becomes a paperweight (but it prevents a person to reset the router using the same stuff, I suggested above to find one that works - if they were not working and you don't need help to identify it) I would consider changing the default user name and password reset so no one can use this method ignores everything and get (even if you notice that and eventually be locked out yourself - and quite well, they will have to have physical access to the router to reset it because I don't think that this can be done remotely).  I did it with mine.  Others choose not to bother because they assume that nobody's going to such extremes and it would make things easier if you needed help more later and I forgot the password.  It's your choice.  I did it because I'm a little paranoid and know that I forget - but for the most part, I suggest they leave alone that can be a bit going overboard.

    Then go to all devices connected wireless or another for the router and configuration, security codes to enable this device (your computers and perhaps a printer or other devices) to access the router and don't not blocked everything as your neighbors now will be.  Go to network connections and sharing, then the list of wireless connections and select the connection of your router and right click and click Properties.  Click Security and three above options should appear.  Change them to match what you used for the router and save the settings.  Now close the connection to the router (if it doesn't what shouldn't be) and re-establish a connection and you may in.  Do same for all devices (printers and other devices probably have special methods to change these settings and you may need help with these providers to find a way to review the security settings to connect to the router - but usually it's really not hard and you can probably work yourself or using self-help on the Web site of the device or the manual if you still have it).

    That's all.  You have now completed and you are sure.  Again, you will need help from the ISP with the parameters (and they can also help you with everything if you ask and you need), but with this exception, most of the time I think that you can usually do it on your own.  Go into the router manufacturer only if absolutely necessary and the ISP will not or can not help and you can't find try it yourself since many of them charge for this kind of thing (unless it is brand new and some even then) and you need information from the ISP in any case as the router manufacturer probably does not know the right settings for each provider (even if they do for many is not reasonable to assume that they know not just less likely to the ISP).

    I hope this helps.  Assuming that this has not already been moved on Windows Networking Forum, and if that didn't do the trick and you need more assistance, please repost it here: http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows_other-networking?page=1&tab=all&tm=1300700638376.
