Hi khøbby,


Thank you for using the Apple Support Communities! There are few ways to receive a verification code, or if needed you can also start the account recovery process which can help if you are unable to reset your password or no longer have access to your trusted number for example. The guidance in the article below can help with this issue:


Get a verification code and sign in with two-factor authentication


Use the code displayed on your trusted device
If you have a trusted device running iOS 9 and later, OS X El Capitan and later, iPadOS 13 and later, or watchOS 6 and later, the verification code is displayed automatically on your trusted devices.
1. Sign in with your Apple ID and password on a new device or browser.
2. Look for a sign in notification on any of your trusted devices.

3. Tap Allow to receive your verification code.
4. Enter the verification code on your other device to complete sign in.

Get a text or phone call
If you don’t have a trusted device handy, you can have a verification code sent to your trusted phone number as a text message or phone call.
1. Click Didn't get a verification code on the sign in screen.
2. Choose to have the code sent to your trusted phone number.
3. You'll get a text message or phone call from Apple with your verification code. This text message might include an additional domain validation line. This line includes the @ symbol, the website name, and your code (for example: @icloud.com #123456 %apple.com).

4. Enter the code on your other device to complete sign in.

Get a code from Settings on your trusted device
If you can’t receive a verification code on your trusted devices automatically, you can get one from Settings, even if your device is offline.
From your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
If your device is online:
1. Go to Settings > [your name].
2. Tap Password & Security > Get Verification Code.
On iPhone, tap Get Verification Code
If your device is offline:
1. Go to Settings > [your name].
2. Tap Password & Security. 
3. A message says "Account Details Unavailable." Tap Get Verification Code.
From your Mac
1. Go to Apple menu  > System Settings (or System Preferences), then click your name (or Apple ID).
2. Click Password & Security > Get a Verification Code.
On Mac, open settings to get a verification code

If you still can't sign in
If you can’t sign in, reset your password, or receive verification codes, you can request account recovery to regain access to your account. Account recovery might take a few days or longer, depending on the specific account information you can provide to verify your identity.


Hope this helps!


Have a great day.
