Some of us set up two-factor authentication nearly two years ago The fact that an attacked account is locked means that a malicious party could even weaponize that behavior into you losing your account access forever if you don’t know where you stashed your Recovery Key. Without your Recovery Key, Apple can’t let you back into your iCloud account-and you’ll lose everything you don’t have backed up locally. (The one exception: FileVault offers an escrow option for your drive recovery key, but even then you have to provide precise information to Apple to unlock the encryption that’s surrounding your key.) If it has the secrets, then attackers can gain them, too, or it can be compelled to surrender them to government agents. Apple doesn’t retain information in a way that lets it gain access without key pieces of data or devices only you possess. Apple has designed its two-step recovery system, just like iOS 8’s passcode protection and Mac OS X’s FileVault encryption, so that if the necessary credentials are lost, the firm cannot recover your data. He couldn’t find his Recovery Key, and Apple said without it, his account data and access would be lost forever.Īnd that’s true. Since it’s a new device you can create a new Apple ID to use temporarily while your main Apple ID is in account recovery.Documented the many hours of cold sweats he went through after someone attempted to crack his account, and Apple disabled normal access, as described in If that’s not possible then you have to wait it out. Only way to get out is to have the ability to receive the verification code. After that you will know how much longer you will be in account recovery. Once done you will have to wait 24 hours. Then it will move on to sending a code via email and then more verification prompts.
If it wants to send you a code look lower and yih will see in blue, didn’t receive code then it will give more options.
You can do it from the device or you can go to and you will have to type in your Apple ID then the OLD phone number because that is the phone number associated with your Apple ID. then the only thing that you can do is go into account recovery. If you do not have any other trusted phone numbers other than the old one, are not signed into that same Apple ID on another apple device, and do not have any account recovery contacts….
