I bought a new iPad Pro but can’t set up 2 factor authentication
I bought a new iPad Pro but can’t set up 2 factor authentication. I’m not sure from research why I am not able to set this up.

Chris, thanks for your help with this. I realize I had a fairly scrimpy description of the problem. I did solve the problem that was preventing me from setting up the 2 factor authentication. I had to unlink an older iPad from my Apple account. Maybe this will help some one else who is having no luck setting up the 2FA. THANKS AGAIN FOR THE QUICK RESPONSE

See if this helps, Two-factor authentication for Apple ID - Apple Support
Thanks for the reply but no this was no help at all. Also had already been to that particular page a few times. Thanks anyway
What is happening that you cannot get it set up? You need to provide some additional information.
