Hey t quinn,


If I understand correctly, you are trying to sign in to iCloud but you are not able to sign in. Since you are using iOS 6.1.6, I would recommend you use this article to help troubleshoot the issue.


"What if I use two-factor authentication on a device running older software?

If you use two-factor authentication with devices running older OS versions—like an Apple TV (2nd or 3rd generation)—you might be asked to add your six-digit verification code to the end of your password when signing in. Get your verification code from a trusted device running iOS 9 and later or OS X El Capitan and later, or have it sent to your trusted phone number. Then type your password followed by the six-digit verification code directly into the password field."

Hi Starr,


The point of signing into iCloud was to get access to Apple Music on this device. I am not able to do this. There is no option to turn on iCloud Music Library

I thought perhaps iTunes Match needed to be signed into but a message says "This account does not have iCloud Music enabled. Apple Music has not been linked to this account. I am signed into the same iCloud account as the rest of my devices.
