Can I use an email to verify icloudchain

When I try to setup a iCloud chain on my devices like my iPad an iPhon, it send the verification code to the phone  that is a land line and can not receive text on it. Can I use an email to verify the device

Hello Maziman,
Setting up iCloud Keychain and verifying a device requires at least SMS. Take a look at this info from the following article:
Frequently asked questions about iCloud Keychain
If you can't access any of your other devices that are using iCloud Keychain, you can still set up iCloud Keychainon another device if you have these items:
Your iCloud Security Code
The device that is using the SMS-capable phone number you provided when you first set up iCloud Keychain. A verification code is sent via SMS to this phone number. If you can't access this number, contact Apple Support, who can verify your identity, so that you can complete setup on your new device.
After you complete the setup, your iCloud Keychain will be pushed from the cloud to the new device.
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
All the best,
Sterling

  • How can i use an email address with an apostrophe as my apple ID

    I need use a school email address for a new Apple ID but it has an apostrophe, and Apple does not see it as a valid address. How can I use that email?

    Welcome to the Apple Community Juduth.
    If you don't know your password, don't know your security questions and don't have a rescue address or don't receive a reset email, you should contact AppleCare who will initially try to assist you with a reset email or if unsuccessful will pass you to the security team to reset your security questions for you.
    If you are in a region that doesn't have international telephone support try contacting Apple through iTunes Store Support.

    Ahhh after some research and trail and error.. (hours of it)... I got a work around!!! I tried it for gmail and it works fine now!! Below is what you do:-
    On inital stage please type dont type correct yahoo, gmail, hotmail or other email ID "

    Go to Mail on your phone  - Options - Settings -  scroll down to email - Options - New Mailbox
    Click - start and then NO to allow connections (that stops Nokia Messaging swinging into control)
    Now enter your hotmail address except do not put @hotmail.com at the end.  Put @abc.com
    e..g. if you email is *****@hotmail.com then enter mailto:*****@abc.com
     Now enter your password - press OK
    Now you will get an OPTION to define settings and it will allow you to manually set the POP3 or IMAP
    Now put in your correct email id and passwd while setting the IMAP. for gmail use the following >
    Enter 'imap.gmail.com' as the incoming mail server, Select 'SSL/TLS' for your security (ports) and define your port as '993.'

  • I used my husband's email for my apple ID.  I just got him a new ipad but can't use the email to register.  If I change my ID now, will that email be available for him on his ipad?

    I used my husband's email for my apple ID.  I just got him a new ipad but can't use the email to register.  If I change my ID now, will that email be available for him on his ipad?

    Hey LamFY,
    Thanks for the question. The short answer is Yes. Once you change your Apple ID primary email address, the previous email address will be freed up for use with another account:
    Apple ID: Changing your Apple ID
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht5621
    Be sure to follow all of the steps in this resource, most importantly the first step of signing out of all Apple features and services.
    Thanks,

  • Can you use multiple email addresses on the owa app?

    Can you use multiple email addresses on the Microsoft OWA App?

    You can do it but there is a delay from the bluetooth speaker.  You'll need an iphone or ipad using the Apple app "Control", airplay setup, bluetooth speaker, and an Apple laptop or desktop. 
    I used my laptop to connect to my bluetooth speaker so that sound streams to my bluetooth device. Then, on my iphone I opened Control and connect the music to my airplay and my laptop at the same time.  The music goes to your airplay speaker, and then to my laptop which then blue tooths it to my speaker.  But, as I said the bluetooth takes an extra step to stream it and so the music is not in sync.  Its like a second and a half delay....

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Start here (change country if necessary) and navigate to 'Password and Security', reset your security questions using the link provided, you will receive an email to your rescue address, use the link in the email and reset your security questions.
    If that doesn't help, you don't receive a reset email or you don't have a rescue address, you should contact AppleCare who will initially try to assist you with a reset email or if unsuccessful will pass you to the security team to reset your security questions for you.

  • How can I get another email to verify my icloud account

    How do I get another email to verify my icloud account the last one timed out so I could not use it ??

    You can ask your email service provider for another email address. They often allow several per account. Or you can sign up for a free gmail, yahoo or other email address. Or you might use your spouse's email address.

    You can use a non @me to set up iCloud, then add your @me address to that apple id.  So you have your apple id as any addreee you want, and your @me address is attached to that apple id, but it is not the id.  That is what I did, so I know that works.
    If you open an iCloud account with an ID which is a non-Apple email address you will be asked to create a new @me.com address to go with it. People have reported that it is not possible to add an existing @me.com address to an iCloud account, so if that is what you've done I can't explain why you got away with it An @me.com address is an Apple ID in its own rigtht so you would be in effect merging IDs, which (despite many people's fervent wishes) is not possible.
    And as said you can't use an alias address for anything else than an alias in the account by which it was created.

  • Can I use one email address for two apple devices? (One iPad2 and one iMac.)

    I've been trying to find this information by searching the web and I can't find a good answer.
    Can I use [email protected] for my "iPad AppleID" and use the same email address for my "iMac AppleID"?

    your mail account has nothing to do with your apple id or device or even platform
    you activate your mail account in your mail-app on your device, just pay attention you activate your account as IMAP and not as POP or Exchange
    I suppose Verizon.net offers IMAP  too?
    citation from Wikipedia :
    IMAP supports both on-line and off-line modes of operation. E-mail clients using IMAP generally leave messages on the server until the user explicitly deletes them. This and other characteristics of IMAP operation allow multiple clients to manage the same mailbox. Most e-mail clients support IMAP in addition to Post Office Protocol (POP) to retrieve messages; however, fewer e-mail services support IMAP. IMAP offers access to the mail storage. Clients may store local copies of the messages, but these are considered to be a temporary cache.

  • Can I use Yahoo email address in Mail?

    Hi,
    Friend bought a MacBook. He's had Yahoo email address for years. Can he use it in Mail? If not - is there a free solution? He has an Airport, so no need to get high speed.
    Thanks.

    You can an email account from either your ISP (internet service provider) or from an email account provider only such as Apple (.Mac), Yahoo, etc.
    I was under the impression that one doesn't need to actually get
    high speed with an Airport - that you just need to be somewhere
    with good reception.
    Yes and no.
    I have Cable modem service at Home and I purchased an Airport Express wireless router which is connected to my cable modem. This allows me to create a wireless network at home which is password protected and encrypted. Any neighbors within range of my wireless network can see my network but are unable to connect to it (without my permission or knowledge) since I have it password protected and encrypted.
    Although your friend's MacBook may be within range of someone else's wireless network, most are password protected (or should be) and even if not protected, this doesn't give your friend or anyone else the right to connect to this dumb person's unprotected wireless network without their permission and knowledge.
    Even if your friend does so with or without permission, he will probably have problems sending messages with an email account and SMTP server not provided by the person's internet service provider with the wireless network.
    There are a number of paid and free wireless access locations at coffee shops and the like but each has different requirements for using an email account and SMTP server that is outside of their network.
    Having an Airport or wireless card does not give you free internet access unless you are within range of a free public wireless network which must be within 150 feet or so.

  • How can I use my email with a password?

    Can anyone help me? How can I use a password to open my email so nobody else can read it?

    The only way is to go to Settings>Mail>the mail account and turn off the account.
    Then go to Settings>General>Restrictions and set the restruction that prevents changing accounts. Y will have to unset the restrictions to use the account.
