Can't change my password because don't have my recovery code

I was planning to do that anyway. I'm usually AFK on Easter Sunday evening anyway.

"Allow Admin Password Reset Using Apple ID" what do people think about this?

Hi Rod. I've had that box checked for several years now. An extra bit of protection.

Yes, it seemed like a good idea to me but seldom mentioned.

Well, I won't take much credit for my savvy or diligence. I just read the rather strident warning that came with the RK at the time. I was struck by the warning because it seemed unusually dire for an Apple warning and I remember thinking, "If THEY think it needs that, I better keep this one safe." Maybe they toned down the caution? In any event, as one who has had personal data stolen (OPM and one other), I take all the security I am offered. The risk is, to me, worth the benefit.
