2 step authentication option missing

All
Have 2 step authentication setup on main account without issue but on another account (iCloud domain) do not see any option to turn on 2 step authentication. The iPhone I use with that account is an older unit that has a sim but no cell service (disconnected line) however I have the phone numbers on the account pointing to my active iPhone yet still no option to even Turn On 2 step authentication. Anything I could be missing here ?
Again this is not even showing as an option in the account settings under AppleID.
Thanks

Contact Apple for assistance by going to https://expresslane.apple.com, then click More Products and Services>Apple ID>Other Apple ID Topics>The topic is not listed.  The call should be free, but you'll need your serial number to set it up (which you can find on your phone in Settings>General>About).

  • Apple ID two step authentication - SMS option not available to receive verification code

    Hi apple community,
    First time poster, so be nice and let me know if this is the wrong forum
    When signing on to my apple ID account, with two step authentication enabled, I am prompted to send a verification code to my device.
    Now, my device was actually replaced under warranty so when attempting to send the verification code, I do not receive anything.
    I have checked Find My Phone is enabled and working.
    As I understand it now, the verification code is sent as a device message so if you replace your device, you have to re-register your new trusted device for apple ID two step authentication.
    When signing in, I do not have the option to send a text message (i.e. an SMS) to my mobile number.
    Has anyone experience this and resolved it? (and yes, Apple Support have tried to help me with no success)
    FB

    Ditto.  For whatever reason, my cell cannot receive the SMS code from Apple. I'm located in Mexico - but I've done 2-step authentication in the past without problem.  Phone number triple-checked and accurate.
    And of course, y iPad won't connect to our office WiFi for some reason (stupid D-link routers, apparently)....
    A real pain when I can't log-in to my office iMac to access iCloud mail....

  • 2 step authentication not an option in my list

    I'm looking at setting up 2 step authentication, but it's not an option on the icloud website under the password/security section, and I'm wondering why not?
    Thanks

    I'm afraid I know nothing about using this. I just passed along the FAQ I found. If you signed into your Apple ID account and something isn't working, then I'd recommend calling Apple about it.
    Select a number for your country from this list: Contacting Apple for support and service and ask for Account Security.
    You may need to consider if this is desirous. Once you implement it if you ever forget the login to your account Apple will be unable to restore access for you. This is an extreme security measure. Be sure you understand the ramifications of using it.

    Best regards

    Two-step verification is not available in France yet. See > http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5570

  • SAP Authentication Method Missing

    Dear Experts, I have been having this problem for sometime. I have redone the whole work again just to make sure I'm not missing anything. Any help is appreciated.
    I'm on BO XI R2, with Tomcat 5.0,27, Windows 2003 environment, Java connector 2.1.8,
    I'm missing SAP authentication method in the Java InfoView. I have Enterprise, LDAP and WinAD in the list but not SAP authentication. While my Java Infoview for SAP works just fine.
    Also with IIS, the .NET InfoView does have SAP authentication and it works fine as well.
    Kindly assist me in fixing this.
    BTW, which configuration file in tomcat hold this info about authentication methods?

    8 --> Configured the Kerberos Windows AD Authentication in BOE System (these includes the steps to apply it on IIS and Java Application Servers (Tomcat)) by following the
             instructions in BusinessObjects Enterpriseu2122 XI Release 2 Deployment and Configuration Guide, Chapter 13
    9 --> Installed Live Office Client 11.5.8.826 (server and client component on the same machine)
           a) Enabled Live Office client components (by running the enable_addin.exe utility)
           b) Running side-by-side Live Office installations (enable the Live Office Add-In)
    10 --> Install Xcelsius 2008, Version 12.1.0.247
    11 --> Install BusinessObjects XI Release 2 Integration Kit for SAP SP1
    12 --> Install BusinessObjects XI R2 Service Pack 2 for Integration Kits
    13 --> Make sure that BOE Sample Reports is imported to the installed BOE system
    14 --> Configured and Tested IIS for SAP Authentication with SSO for SAP InfoView in BI system and
               SAP Enterprise System to point to the installed BOE system
    15 --> Configure Tomcat (Web.config files) to use BOE Cluster Name & SAP Authentication with SSO
              enabled for SAP InfoView site when it is used from the SAP Enterprise Portal
    16 -->Tested to logon to Live Office with SAP Authentication. SAP Authentication is missing in the Live
             Office like Java InfoView
    Kindly point out to me where I'm going wrong?

  • AppleID 2-step authentication setup - an unknown error has occurred

    as the title says, I've tried twice to setup 2-step authentication and always end up with a "an unknown error has occurred" once I confirm (click the checkbox) to enable the security option.
    I was able to setup my SMS number, verify 2 devices and re-entered my recovery code when I was prompted.
    All I get at the end is: "an unknown error has occurred"
    I have to restart the entire verification process after this happens.

    well.. I just tried it again today and it appears to be working now.. I guess there was just a "glitch" with their systems yesterday.
    All is good in the universe once again!

  • Apple Mail won't Authenticate Google Login with 2 Step Authentication Enabled

    Is there a way to authenticate a Google Account added to Apple Mail using 2 Step authentication?
    I am using the 10.10.3 and trying to link my google email account to Apple Mail. I use 2 step authentication for Gmail, but when trying to add this account to Apple Mail, I type my username and password and the next window asks for the code generated by my device. This code is not recognized when logging in. Further, I have tried logging in with an Application Specific Password generated by google, but this fails to work as well. Any help is greatly appreciated. This issue has been plaguing me since 10.10.1 and Apple says its Google's issue. Any workarounds would be helpful.

  • Acrobat 9 Std - Comments- 'Enable for Commenting And Analysis In Reader' option Missing

    Hi,
    We've purchased a copy of Adobe Acrobat 9 Standard, and need to enable comments in Reader for PDFs that we create in Acrobat.  The option to "Enable For Commenting And Analysis In Reader" seems to be missing from the "comments" menu, even though all the videos/tutorials insist it's there.
    I haven't found any threads about this yet, and searched google for the missing option + "missing" along with other things.  Nothing related came up.
    Any ideas on what we could try?  Or why this is happening?
    Thanks!

    I don't think Standard has this option. Acrobat Pro does.
    This page confirms it: http://www.adobe.com/products/acrobat/matrix.html

  • GMAIL - Z10 forgetting passord (2-step authentication turned on)

    Gmail (with 2-step authentication) erratically asks for password. I can go days without any problems then have a day when it will say the GMail account is invalid and I have to put in the device specific password two or three times that day. I have turned off 2-step authentication for now to see if that helps but would like it fixed. Vodafone say it is a google / gmail issue but not sure I believe that, given the issues I have had with the Z10 OS and the fact that the issue seems to appear alot on the web related to the BB platform. Not seen any solution yet though. 
    On the Z10 I am running OS 10.1.0.2312. on Vodafone.

    Hi Holden,
    You may have to unlock your Gmail Captcha, which is a security feature set in place by them to prevent unauthrorized "bot" logins.  You can unlock your Gmail Captcha at https://accounts.google.com/DisplayUnlockCaptcha then test your Gmail account again.
    Thanks.

    Apple, would you please make two-step authentication larger on the iPhone screen?
