Answer 1

Hello Phoebe,

Please tell me know what part of adding the Microsoft Authenticator app has failed. Are you locked out of your account?

If you still somehow have access to the admin portal, you can enable the Temporary Access Pass authentication method and assign yourself one to pass any MFA prompts on your way to registering your authenticator app in the security info section at account.microsoft.com

Let me know!

Answer 2

I downloaded the Authenticator app in the new iphone. But when i tried to add the account, it needs verification from Authenticator app… i already removed the account in my old phone….

since it’s a business account with domain different from hotmail.com etc, so i can’t recovery it in the link from microsoft support website. And since i am the only admin for this business account, i don’t hv the admin log in… so now a not stuck
