Finally figured out my problem.

  1. sign in with iCloud account user name
  2. in your settings with another apple device connected to iCloud, request a authorization number.
  3. enter you iCloud password followed by authorization number. (Passwordxxx-xxx) xxx-xxx represents the authorization code.
  4. make sure you press ok with authorization code on other device, then enter password and code together.


hope this helps and explained clearly to everybody.
