I HAVE THE RESOLUTION. after experiencing this issue myself where the apple watch is requesting a password and you enter the password from your apple phone but then never receive the verification code this is what you need to do. Yes, It is because many of us have 2 apple IDs (1 for personal associated for you only "1st ID" and other possibly used for itunes and app store for family "2nd ID"). On a device (you decide) .. sign out of the apple id associated with your personal and sign into the one that the APPLE WATCH is asking for. This is a temporary sign out ... after you get the verification code to the 2nd ID then you can sign back in using the 1st ID. I have multiple devices so I signed out and back in using a secondary phone that I have. But you can do this on an IPAD or Macbook also. I would not do this on your primary phone. Once you sign in with the 2nd iD .... go through the verification steps on the WATCH again. This will now send the verification code to the device you used to sign into with the "2nd ID". Get that verification code, use it to verify the watch. Then go to the app store icon on the WATCH and choose any free app to download and make sure it downloads. Wait 5 minutes to confirm that you are no longer receiving this message on the watch anymore and then go back to that device you selected to now SIGN OUT using the 2nd ID and sign back in with the 1st ID.
These steps should save you 2 hours on the phone with TIER 2 APPLE Support.
TIER 1 apple support will not be able to fix this issue. If you call apple support, you need to specifically request TIER 2 support.
Be blessed and pay it forward!
Thank you so much! This totally works for me and fixes my problem.
This is extremely annoying, nothing I’ve tried works. Does anyone know if Apple is working on a fix?
This fixed the issue for me. Thanks for posting.
My apple watch app just keeps spinning when I choose to use the keyboard to enter my password. How did you get to the keyboard?
Thanks,
That doesn't work, there's no place to put in a password again
and i only have one apple id
This is also happening to me . Apple support where the **** are you?
this is me again Apple if you are bothering to read ... I typed in where the h_ll are you and it converted it **** which is like I had sworn
THIS WORKED. THANK YOU
Same problem here..watch is asking password for an account that has not been used in years..so far did not find a fix for this. Very annoying
I tried that, but in my watch app, it already has my ID, so I can’t even change it, if I wanted to.
it’s very frustrating to keep getting messages to sign in on my watch😩
Code is not sent to any device. Why? Can't enter the code if the device doesn't receive it.
P.S. It's also giving you my password in the the posted by field instead of my login ID! Now THERE'S a problem!
This worked for me also!
This worked for me.
Tried this after Apple store told me to - came right back a few days later...
