I ordered my daughter a new iPhone 13. I think I set it up with my phone number thinking it was just verifying my account. What should I do?

New phone I just traded phones , my daughter gave me her phone, and she got a new one. Now when I sign in , and it asks me to verify myself. I’m not able too, because the verification will go to her number? Any ideas? Thanks

I can't verify Apple ID with the cellphone number My son has a new phone after destroying his old one, and he had a different phone number to the one that was used previously for his Apple ID. When we went to set up his Apple ID on his new iphone, it asked for verification through the old phone number, which he can't use. How can we get around this? He doesn't have any other trusted device signed in to his Apple ID.

New iCloud account and verification code Hello, We bought a new iPad for our child and are trying to get it set up. We have created the iCloud account which has our (adult’s) account/mobile number linked to it. We then get a message for a verification code to activate our child’s iCloud account, however, we are unable to log in to the account we created in order to access the code. We get stuck at this stage and are unsure how to move past it. Any advice? If we try to reset the password for our child’s account then it resets the password for the parent’s account, and locks the child’s account and we then get stuck in this endless loop. Any suggestions or ideas would be appreciated. Thank you!
