Can’t log in appstore on Yosemite

Hello!

Macbook pro late 2013, OS X Yosemite Version 10.10.5

I wanted to install the Mojave from Yosemite and I can’t sign in appstore.

I have Two factor authentication activated

If I login in Appstore it says that i need to take the code from another device. This works with my iPhone but I can't find the Place where I need to type the code...

Please consult me how to fix it.

How to install new software on iMac when I cannot login to the APP store? I have an older iMac which I need to update to iOS Lion. I have bought the iOS Lion Software in the Apple store and received it in my email.The problem is I cannot login to the APP store with my Apple id to install the new software. I believe it is due to the 2 factor approval that is activated for my Apple id. However, my old iMac does not support 2 factor approval so when I fill in my Apple id and password I am asked to fill in my password again followed by the code sent to my phone.Instead of seeing the box to fill in the code I get an error that my password is incorrect - which it is not.Is there a way to work around this? Can I some how disable the 2 factor approval on my Apple id so I can login to APP store on my iMac and install the new software?

yosemite apple id help Hey everyone, I have to update my macOS from yosemite (10.10.5) to something newer (thinking mojave). However, in order to download mojave I have to log in to app store. But I cannot log in to the appstore because the box to enter the 6 digit code for two factor authentication doesn't appear on yosemite! I am stuck in a vicious loop. I can't turn off two step authentication either (there is no option to). Writing the 6 digit code in the same box as my password didn't work, too. Any help would be much much appreciated as this is important for my school work and I'm kinda running low on time. Many thanks in advance. Cheers

If you see a password box, enter the password (ABC) followed by the code (123) or ABC123.
