How do I change the phone number associated to my keychain?

Hi Shelly tree I’m trying to unlock my disabled iPad but it’s asking for a verification number but I don’t have an other device but my friend has an iPhone but on my account it’s not her number how do I change it

Assuming you mean autofil, it comes from the Contact Entry in contacts that you have designated as you. Settings App > Safari > Passwords and autofill.

• Devices using iOS 7.0.3 or later: Tap Settings > iCloud > Account, then tap Keychain. Check that the phone number listed under Verification Number is correct. If not, enter another phone number.
• Macs using OS X Mavericks v10.9 or later: Choose Apple () menu > System Preferences. Click iCloud, then click Account Details. Check that the phone number listed under Verification number is correct. If not, enter another phone number.

This does not work.

- When using the iOS way the screen Settings > iCloud > Account > Keychain shows "approve with security code" grayed out. No telephone number anywhere.

- When using Apple () menu > System Preferences > iCloud > Account Details, there is no option to change anything at all. You can, however, go to "Manage Apple ID" and change your phone number. Even so, the SMS code is still being sent to the wrong number.

Thanks for letting me know.

So does actually anyone know how to change it ???

Yes, how to change it? In Settings > iCloud > Account > Keychain I do not have any option to change and my security code always go to a number that i do not have anymore...

Hi everyone,

I just have same problem, but i found a solution....

On iOS go to Settings > iCloud > Keychain and tap to button to disable iCloud Keychain. (you will be asked to delete or keep passwords on device) i chose delete....

Then enable it again and in pop-up chose Reset iCloud Keychain, on confirmation pop-up chose Reset

In new pop-up Use iPhone Passcode as iCloud Security Code? chose Use Passcode

Enter your passcode (4 digit) and then chose country and your new phone number

And done! 🙂

I just changed my number on Iphone 4, 7.1.2

This worked for me. Although, to "Reset iCloud Keychain," I assumed meant to clear the data and essentially set up a new, blank Keychain. Not so. Strangely, after essentially bypassing the security regimen, setting a new passcode and verification number, I see my cards, passwords and other data have been restored. Maybe it's all about the iCloud account and that master password. Or maybe it's a bug. With Apple, we'll never know.

I am stuck as well. My keychain keeps trying to send a verifcation to a phone I no longer have access to (moved countries). Even if I put my access code in.

How can I change this under OS X Yosemite? I have changed it online already but doesn't seem to have any relation to my iMac.

dusanp83's solution worked for me. maybe give that a try?

"On iOS go to Settings > iCloud > Keychain and tap to button to disable iCloud Keychain. (you will be asked to delete or keep passwords on device) i chose delete...."

I will NOT be asked and cannot delete unfortunately. Using iphone 6 IOS 8.1.1. Any further solution?

No good because all my devices are already off, so turning it off is not an option and if I turn it on it asks for my code and then sends an SMS to my old phone.

I think you may still get it to work. If I recall correctly it's when you are asked to enter the code, below the boxes where your code would normally go, there's a "Forgot code" option or something to that effect. When you click that, I think you'll be given the option to reset.
