How can I change the phone number in which security code is sent because I stay in China long time and buy a new iPadair. I cannot connect with iCloud.
I work in China, therefore, I stay in China for long time. I bought an iPadair and try to connect with iCloud, then asked me security code which is sent to my home phone in New York. I cannot get it. How can I connect the new one with iCloud. My name is David M Lee, have Apple, iCloud and iTune account.
If you are referring to the code for Apple ID two-step verification, you will need access to either one of your trusted devices or your Recovery Key. There is more information in the links below:

How can i change the phone number on my ipod to a different number
how can i change my phone number on my ipod to a different number than my i phone
Only by getting a different iPhone and using your Apple ID for Messages/FaceTime on your iPod. The iPod (and iPad) only have a phone number for Messages and FaceTimeT if the Apple ID used for those services on the iPad is also used on a Phone witrh iOS 6 or later.

How can I change the phone number for my I message
I have a new phone number but cannot get my iPad iMessage to change to the new number
I am assuming you have an iPhone? have you gone into Settings>Messages and updated everything there, if so I would have thought an option would then be present on the iPad.

How can I change the phone number format?
When I first picked up my iPhone from Smartone Vodafone here in Hong Kong, it was setup to display the numbers correctly (ex: 1234-5678). I have since restored my iPhone several times and with the extra digit in there, iOS formats the first three numbers as if they are a US area code.
Anyone know how I can get the Hong Kong format back? I'd prefer to not have to enter +852 in front of all my HK contacts.
Thanks,
HunterI'm not entirely sure if this will work, but try going to Settings > General > International > Region Format > Hong Kong SAR China. Hopefully that will do the trick.

How do I change the phone number attached to my Icloud? All the codes and stuff are being sent to my old number.
Hello Babyygrl23,
Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
It sounds like your iCloud Apple ID has a phone number associated with it that you would like to update. If this is the case, after signing in to the linked website below, you will see a section on the left side of the screen labeled Phone Numbers. You can edit the phone number associated with that account from there.

Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
Please see below on how to change your phone number for iCloud Keychain:

After setting up iCloud Keychain on your Mac, you can change whether your iCloud Security Code can be used to approve iCloud Keychain on new devices. You can also change the iCloud Security Code or the phone number used to verify your identity after you use the iCloud Security Code.
In iCloud Preferences, make sure Keychain is on, click Account Details, then change your iCloud Security Code settings.
