Can I disable “TWO-FACTOR AUTHENTICATION” so that I can make purchases on my 2nd Gen iPod from the iTunes Store?

I could use the iTunes Store before, can I turn off the TWO-FACTOR AUTHENTICATION now?

iPod Touch (2nd Gen)

Hello,

No, once Two-Factor Authentication has been enabled for an Apple ID then it cannot be disabled.

You will need to generate a secure code and type it after your password. Example: password123456

It won’t let me, I was thinking maybe if I erased everything: it would let me get on a different Apple ID
