In regards to the 2FA, since you're not receiving the SMS from Dropbox, are you sure you have the correct number listed in your Dropbox settings? Have you contacted your phone carrier to see if the messages are being blocked for some reason?

Multi-factor authentication (also known as MFA, two-step verification, two factor authentication, or 2FA) is a highly recommended security feature that adds an extra layer of protection to your Dropbox account. Enabling multi-factor authentication means that Dropbox will require a six-digit security code (in addition to your password) when you log in to your account or link a new computer, phone, or tablet.

If you choose to receive your security codes by text message, you need a phone capable of receiving text messages (carrier rates may apply). A text message containing a security code will be sent to your phone each time you log in to Dropbox.

After enabling multi-factor authentication, consider adding a backup phone that can receive text messages as well. If you ever lose your primary phone, or can't use your authenticator app, you can send a security code to your backup phone number instead.

You can use a security key for multi-factor authentication, rather than a six-digit security code. A security key is a small USB, Bluetooth, or Near Field Communication (NFC) device that follows one of the open standards:

Currently, security keys are only supported on select devices and browsers, so you must first set up multi-factor authentication for your Dropbox account and select to receive codes via SMS messages or a mobile app. This step ensures that you have a backup method, in case a device doesn't support your security key.

Note: There are different ways to activate security keys. Your key may require a tap or button press to activate registration. If you're having difficulty completing security key registration, verify that your security key is U2F or WebAuthn capable. You can also refer to the manufacturer instructions specific to your device.

I just noticed evernote emailer on the topic and tried to access my account today to remove SMS 2FA from my account and replace it with Google authenticator. problem is I got stuck at the page requesting me to enter the SMS verification code sent to my mobile, and that SMS message is never sent. tried the other alternative of entering backup codes, however it keeps refering me back to entering the SMS verification code. I tried entering some of the backup code that I have there at no avail (tried the 16 digits with dashs between and without still not working).

it is extermely furstrating that there is no way to reach evertnote support on the issue either. there is no email support contact and the only way to rise an issue is through the forums which I cannot log-in at because I cannot recieve 2FA SMS anymore !! silly that i had to create a dummy account to reach out for help.

(p.s. this topic is not posted by my subscription account that I am facing the issue with, I am using another dummy account just to access the discussion forums as I have no other option to reach support for this)

I have set 2FA up and removed it on different accounts without encountering any issues. For subscribers using an Authenticator is nothing new - it was always available. Only for Free users SMS for the code was the only option.

I had to do a hard reset on my iphone and lost my authenticator codes that I used for my Evernote account. I did not save any back-up codes at the time I created my MFA. I have tried to contact customer support but no one gets back to me.

If you have a Google Account, then you know that it's not easy to reset or delete it without losing everything in your life associated with it. If this happens to you and you want to get access to your email again as soon as possible, then here are some of the most effective methods on how to find your 8-digit recovery code for Gmail. In addition, we'll help you figure out what it actually means so you understand why you need it.

Google offers several ways to sign into your account if you ever lose access to it. One of these options includes using an authenticator app like Authenticator -- which you should definitely use! Keep reading to discover more information about those methods, plus other tips on how to find your eight digit backup codes for Gmail.

There are two main reasons you might be looking for your Gmail password recovery code now. The first reason involves having forgotten it altogether. This may sound impossible because there's no way anyone could forget their own login details but sometimes things happen. It's happened to me before and unfortunately, I was locked out from my Gmail account until I contacted support.

The second reason occurs when someone else has gained unauthorized access to your account. Perhaps they're just curious or maybe you've given them permission once upon a time. Whatever the case may be, restoring your lost password isn't always straightforward. Here's one solution...

Signing up for a new account requires only your name, birthday, gender and Email address. Once you enter all of these pieces of data correctly (make sure you type them exactly) click "continue" at the bottom of the page. On the next screen, select "I don't remember my password."

Next, go back to your previous inbox and look for any emails containing links to change your password. When you receive such an email, open the link by clicking the button provided and input your newly created username and password combination. Then hit Continue. Verify the changes and then check your inbox. Your new password should appear along with instructions on how to set it.

It is important to note that whenever you send personal info through GMail, including credit card numbers & billing addresses, that info does not leave your computer. However, Google does retain copies of those records. So while you shouldn't feel worried about security, it is wise to pay attention to privacy policies and industry guidelines regarding protection of private data.

You may think that finding your 8 digit password wouldn't matter unless you were already locked out. Thankfully, even though it sounds bad, recovering your password doesn't mean your entire identity goes down the drain. Let's take a closer look at how to find your 8 digit Gmail password.

Try signing in with a different browser/computer. Sometimes browsers cache our passwords, meaning that your credentials become invalidated when changing computers. To avoid any issues, make sure to clear cookies, history, etc. every time you switch machines.

Use VPN. A Virtual Private Network allows users to securely connect to public Wi-Fi hotspots. Such connections typically come with risks like malware infections. Using a VPN ensures safe browsing habits.

Optimize extensions. Extensions modify core functions of your browser. While useful, they can slow down performance and lead to crashes. Remove unnecessary ones and replace problematic ones with better alternatives.

Now that you have learned everything you needed to know about how to find your 8 digit backup code for Gmail, it's time to start putting this knowledge into practice. Luckily, there is one last bit of advice worth sharing...

On a side note, if you haven't already done so, please enable two-step verification immediately. This is highly recommended as it protects your account against hackers who manage to steal your primary user ID. Follow the steps outlined above to recover your lost password.

To activate two-step verification, navigate to Click Sign in & Security followed by Change password. Next, input your existing mail address and choose Set up Two Step Verification. Finally, follow prompts and complete setup of your secondary authentication factor.
