Trying to log into new Mac with Apple ID but it keeps asking for a verification code but I don't receive it on other devices.

How do I get apple to send a verification code to another phone number? The one on file is no longer my number--it's from an ex-employer. I also have an ipad logged into same Apple ID but it is running iOS 9.3.5 so it's not receiving the verification code.

You need another trusted device or telephone number.


See Two-factor authentication for Apple ID - Apple Support:

A trusted device is an iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch with iOS 9 and later, or a Mac with OS X El Capitan and later that you've already signed in to using two-factor authentication.
