    Hi Jrad43,

     

    It sounds like you are not able to access iCloud Keychain as you get an error when you enter your security code.

     

    For that please see

    If you forgot your iCloud Security Code

    If you forgot your iCloud Security Code, you can reset it if you can access one of your devices that has iCloud Keychain enabled.

    iOS:

    1. In iOS 8, tap Settings > iCloud > Keychain > Advanced. In iOS 7, tap Settings > iCloud > Account.
    2. Tap Change Security Code.
    3. Enter your Apple ID password when asked.
    4. Enter a new iCloud Security Code.

    OS X Mavericks v10.9 or later:

    1. In OS X Yosemite, choose Apple menu > System Preferences. Click iCloud, then click Options. (In OS X Mavericks, click iCloud, then click Account Details.)
    2. Click Change Security Code to set a new iCloud Security Code.

    If you can't access a device that has iCloud Keychain enabled, you can complete setup by resetting iCloud Keychain on the device:

    iOS:

    1. In iOS 8, tap Settings > iCloud > Keychain > Advanced. In iOS 7, tap Settings > iCloud > Keychain.
    2. Tap Approve with Security Code.
    3. When asked to enter your iCloud Security Code, tap Forgot Code.
    4. Tap Reset iCloud Keychain to replace your iCloud Keychain in the cloud with the iCloud Keychain items on your device.
    5. Tap Reset to confirm. You'll be asked to create a new iCloud Security Code.

    OS X Mavericks v10.9 or later:

    1. Choose Apple menu > System Preferences. Click iCloud, then select Keychain.
    2. When asked to enter your iCloud Security Code, click Forgot Code.
    3. Click Reset Keychain to replace your iCloud Keychain in the cloud with the iCloud Keychain items on your Mac.
    4. Click Reset to confirm. You'll be asked to create a new iCloud Security Code.

    If that is not the issue, please let us know the details.

     

    Take care.
