Diane, Remember the 2 step verification code will be sent when you attempt to login to your account. You can't login if you're already logged in and, from what you've described, it sounds like you're always logged in. We've never discussed here how to logout of your account.
So first logout of your account, Next go to mail.google.com, or some other login entry point, and enter your username and password. After you click enter or whatever the button says to submit that information, then you can expect the phone call. You won't get a phone call just because you turned on 2 step verification. The phone call comes when logging in so it's an on-demand as needed event. Kenneth On Sun, Jul 26, 2015 at 7:03 AM Skip Montanaro <[email protected]> wrote: > I don't know.
