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!
see Dixie44 response above
Thanks. Step 3 finally allowed me to see the code. But when I enter it in my watch, it says "wrong code" entered. So frustrating!
Indybeats, this makes me happy to read!
I have also the same irritating problem. Always asking in every second Apple Id Password for secondary mobile no.
I haven’t had any issues since this last update.
There is no place to sign in on the app. It just shows my apple ID but nowhere to enter password
how can I enter my apple id password on my iPhone
Both IDs show up ok in the watch app. That's not the problem.
Mine is doing the exact same thing, except it is my ex husband's email address. we havent been together for 9 years and i dint have this watch or this phone then.
Totally NOT ungrateful, just didn’t like so much of my time wasted.
What appears in Apple ID is the user name and you can’t insert the password.
Doesn’t work.
Nope. If you have already entered your AppleID there - there is no way to erase it and retype it (or the password)....
No place there to put in a password.....
Yep, that’s how mine is set up.
