Random phone number in my apple info

I'm looking for an email address to contact Apple re iCloud account problems.
I just logged on to change my Apple ID password, and there was some random phone number listed under my information. The "Midwives of St Augustine" to be exact. I'd like to send this information to Apple, but it's pretty clear that they discourage getting email.
(When I found contact settings to call, it wanted a serial number. Clearly, I don't have one for iCloud.)

FYI
It turns out this was another person with my exact name. I've had my .Mac account for over 10 years, so I'm sure this happened pre-security. But it's something to look out for. I had an Apple tech person working on this, and I wasn't able to change security questions or add a recovery email since the @mac.com was "legacy." I was just told to change my password.
Ironically, during last night's iPhone update, it requested recovery questions and an email address.

  • HT1918 How do i change the phone number on my apple ID account so i can use messaging with my Ipod Touch 4th gen?

    How do I change my phone number on my Apple ID account? Not the number for billing. I got a new Ipod touch and when I was setting it up my emails where correct but the phone number was wrong. The gentlemen at the Apple Store told me just to go on my account on my computer and change it but i cant find where. Only part i know how to change is the billing number. Thanks.

    If you can remember them their current answers you can login here and change them : https://appleid.apple.com , click on 'Manage your Apple ID' and then 'Password and Security' on the left-hand side of your account's page
    If you can't remember their answers and you have a rescue email address (which is not the same thing as an alternate email address) set up on your account then you can try going to https://appleid.apple.com/ and click 'Manage your Apple ID' on the right-hand side of that page and log into your account. Then click on 'Password and Security' on the left-hand side of that page and on the right-hand side you might see an option to send security question reset info to your rescue email address.
    If you don't have a rescue email address (you won't be able to add one until you can answer 2 of your questions) then see if the instructions on this user tip helps you get them reset : https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-4551

  • I unregistered my phone number with my apple id and now i need to register it back

    I went from an iPhone 4 to a Samsung Galaxy s4.  When I made the switch I was unable to receive text messages from iPhone users, so I "unregistered" my phone number from my apple id.  I also called tech support and they had to remove the license from the phone number.  I was still unable to receive messages from iPhone users, so I caved and ended up switching back to Apple products and bought an iPhone 5.  I can't figure out how to register my phone number and device with my apple id.  Can someone help?  Thanks!!!

  • TS4268 My ipad stopped recognizing my cell number even though I have my phone number in my Apple ID?

    Need to get text messages on my ipad through my cell and not my email address.

    You can change the phone number the verification code is sent to from a device or Mac that has your iCloud keychain enabled as follows:
    In iOS 8, tap Settings > iCloud > Keychain > Advanced. In iOS 7, tap Settings > iCloud > Account > Keychain. Make sure the phone number under Verification Number is correct. If not, enter another phone number.
    In OS X Mavericks v10.9, choose Apple () > System Preferences. Click iCloud, then click Account Details. Make sure the phone number under Verification number is correct. If not, enter another phone number.
    If you don't have access to a device or Mac with your iCloud keychain enabled, you'll have to contact Apple support to verify your identity and get assistance making the change: http://www.apple.com/support/icloud/contact/.

  • How do you change the phone number associated with apple id

    I bought my wife an IPad 2 and when setting it up it said I could change the phone number later in settings.   Now when I get a text-- she gets a copy on her IPad.   I can't see where in settings to change this to her phone number.

    The phone number associated with an Apple ID is changed here:
    https://appleid.apple.com/cgi-bin/WebObjects/MyAppleId.woa/
    Click on manage my Apple ID and sign in. Then go to your profile and make the necessary changes.
    But your question is a little confusing. Controlling which device receives texts and Messages is done in Setstings
    Settings > Messages > Send and Receive from
    Make the necessary changes there.

  • Unrecognised phone number associated with Apple ID

    Hi guys,
    I woke up this morning to find a pop-up on my iphone saying a new phone number has been associated with my Apple ID on my iphone. I don't recognise the number at all (and I already have my own number associated with the ID) - what should I do?

    Change your Apple ID Password, because someone is using your Apple ID & Password.

  • Change phone number associated with apple id

    Why can you not change the phone number associated with an apple id?  I recently bought a new iPhone 5s and gave my 4s to my husband.  When he put his sim card in the 4s, it seems like a message came up asking if he wanted to use that number for iMessage and I clicked yes never knowing it was going to change the phone number I have associated with my Apple id.  He is not tech savy at all and we both share the same Apple id. I have always had my phone number associated with it and so when I get an iMessage it comes on my Mac computer, iPad, and iPhone--which I like.  Now my computer and iPad only have his number with it and there is not an option to add my number back.  My phone still shows my cell number associated with iMessage.  I am afraid to update my phone in case it knocks me off of iMessage.  I have tried the signing in and out of IMessage and Face time on my computer and iPad and that does not help.  I just want to change the phone number associated with it.

    You could simply ensure that only the numbers and addresses you wish to use on each device are checked at Settings > Messages > Send & Receive. However this isn’t an ideal solution because the other person can always change these settings from their device and have some fun with you and your contacts.
    You’d be far better getting them to delete your account from their device and have them create one of their own. If you are sharing an ID for some other service such as iTunes, you can continue to do so, you only need change the ID for messages.
