You would be best advised to verify/update your AppleID account - ensuring that your secondary (recovery) email addresses and trusted phone numbers are current.


You would be best advised to ensure that you have multiple secondary email addresses - and multiple trusted telephone numbers (a mix of both fixed line and mobile/cellular numbers is advised).
