Update phone number keychain

Hi there,
I have iPhone 4s with ios8 and macbook pro retina with Yosemite.
Lately I wanted to start using keychain with iCloud, but the number where keychain sends the verification code its still my old number, and even changing my number in settings iCloud sends the message to my old number.
don't know what to do... any help will be much appreciated
thanks

Hi almametta,
If you are not receiving your iCloud Keychain verification code, I would suggest that you troubleshoot using the steps in this article -

  • Updating phone number associated with iCloud keychain

    I am trying to set up iCloud keychain and it will only keep saying it will send a code to an old UK mobile number that I do not have. I have checked in my Apple ID and my current phone number is listed as the only number with my account, how do I get keychain to acknowledge my current US cell and forget an old UK number?
    many thanks

    Hi there totalblonde, 
    It sounds like you need to update the phone number associated with your iCloud Keychain. You should be able to update that with the steps outlined in the following article:
    Get help using iCloud Keychain
    On your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch, 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. 
    On your Mac, choose Apple menu > System Preferences. Click iCloud, then click Options next to Keychain. (In OS X Mavericks or earlier, click iCloud, then click Account Details.) Make sure the phone number under Verification number is correct. If not, enter another phone number.
    If you can't access a device that has iCloud Keychain enabled, contact Apple Support and verify your identity to get help setting up iCloud Keychain.

    Hi all,

When I connecting my iphone to iTunes , summary tag of iTunes also could not show the correct phone num.However, I used the same sim card on other brand handphone, there was no any problem with showing up the number. Is any one who can explain to me what the problem with my iphone 4s is?

  • My apple id updated phone number is not loading on my ipad

    I updated my phone number on my apple id but my old number has not changed on my ipad.  How do I update the information on my ipad?

    Read this and pay attention to the very last part of the article. Basically, you have to turn off Messages and FaceTime on the phone and then start over again and then the iPhone number should be available on the iPad.

  • Updating Phone Number for FaceTime and iMessage

    My husband and I both have iPhones, iPads, and I just got a new MacBook Pro. We also share an apple ID. But for some reason I can't seem to get Facetime or iMessage to use my phone number... only my husbands. How do I make the contact number MY number? I already changed it on my Apple ID, but when I open FaceTime, it still only gives me the option to add my husband's number.

    You can add an email address only with FaceTime and iMessage with an iPad and with any Mac or other iOS device besides the iPhone.
    iMessage can be exchanged with any iOS compatible device and with a Mac running OS X 10.7 with the Messages Beta app.

  • Changed iCloud phone number; not updated for keychain response after 3 days.

    Hi,
    I was correcting a keychain error that can occur (it seems) that asks for about 10-15 local keychain password checks upon booting.
    That issue is logged in the forum and easy to correct.
    What subsequently was required was resetting my keychains on my devices that required the security code challenge.
    Since neither of my pad or macbook are authorised to counter-authorise, I need to go via my registered phone number.
    All pretty basic stuff.
    So, when I realise that the security code message is being sent to my OLD cell-number I change it on my iCloud and expect it to change in my account and the entire system within 15-30 minutes, which would be quite normal and go from there.
    I was wrong.
    Since changing my phone number, which is still maintained on my iCloud account, I still get the system request stating the message is being sent to my old number.
    Yes, I have logged out of all my iCloud activities and rebooted and logged-in again to see if that has anything to do with it. To avail.
    Now it has been 3 days and the old number still appears in the security code request process on all devices on all panes that can be used..
    Any ideas???

  • How can i continue my icloud keychain on my ipod if i no longer have the phone number from my iphone5c?

    How can I get my icloud keychain to my ipod if I no longer have my iphone 5c

    If you have iCloud Keychain set up on another device, you can update your SMS number via that other device in order to verify your new device.  If you do not have another device available or you do not have an SMS capable number, you will need to contact Apple for identity verification in order to bypass that phone number authentication. See below.
    Get help using iCloud Keychain
    I'm not receiving the verification code via SMS.
    Make sure that you have a strong cellular network connection on your phone.
    Make sure that your phone number can receive SMS messages. You can do this by asking someone to send you a text message.
    Make sure that the correct phone number is associated with your account:
    iOS 7.0.3 or later: Tap Settings > iCloud > Account, then tap Keychain. Make sure the phone number under Verification Number is correct. If not, enter another phone number.
    OS X Mavericks v10.9 or later: Choose Apple () > System Preferences. Click iCloud, then click Account Details. Make sure the phone number listed under Verification number is correct. If not, enter another phone number.
    If you can't access a device that has iCloud Keychain enabled, you can contact Apple Support and verify your identity to get help completing iCloud Keychain setup.

    Hello Boogie3339,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    Please see below on how to change your phone number for iCloud Keychain:
    Change how new devices can be approved
    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.

  • What should I do if I no longer have access to the phone number that my iCloud keychain verification code is sent to?

    When I first turned in iCloud keychain I had no other Apple devises so I put in a phone number for it to send my verification number to. Then I had to delete that phone number but the iCloud keychain number is still saying it is going to send the verification number to that phone. How do I program in that that number is no longer active. Please help!!!!!

    Hello Conor T,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    If you do not have access to the phone number you set up for iCloud Keychain, you will need to contact Apple Support to complete setup on a new device.
    How do I set up iCloud Keychain on a new device if I don't have one of my other devices to approve from?
    If you can't access any of your other devices that are using iCloud Keychain, you can still set up iCloud Keychain on 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.
