Q: My security code wants to go to my house phone.  How do I get it to go to my cellphone

My iPad is still waiting for approval from one of your other devices using iCloud Keychain.  Use your security code to turn on ICloud Keychain.  It wants to send a code to my house phone and I need it to send the code to my cell phone.

MacBook Pro (13-inch Late 2011), iOS 5.0.1

    Hi JD2B4U,

     

    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!

     

    I understand that your house phone is incorrect for iCloud Keychain verification. To change this phone number, please follow the steps in the attached article. 

     

    Get help using iCloud Keychain - Apple Support

     

    • 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.

     

    Best regards,

    Joe

    I cannot update the phone number as the message appears that there is a problem communication with iCloud, this has been going on for several days.

    Also if I try from my other devices the same message appears, all my devices have the latest updates
