Apple Event: May 7th at 7 am PT
My IPhone X gave me a red exclamation mark notice. When I went to settings it says some Apple ID settings must be reverified. I enter my ID and password, but it says verification has failed. I am absolutely entering the correct id and password - I logged in fine from both my PC's web browser and my IPad with that exact same ID and Password - checked it a half dozen times.
Any ideas?

Have you done a factory reset?
Some other things you can try. Do you have access to another WiFi network where you can try? That has worked for several people.
Try a restart.
Restart your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
Try a forced restart.

I'm holding off on the factory reset for now as it's not convenient. I realize it may come to that. I had already tried restarts and forced restarts multiple times.
I don't have other WiFi, but I just turned off WiFi and used LTE. No difference.
I'll give it a day or so in case some network or server glitch. If no joy, I will bite the bullet and do the factory reset. I do have automatic backups to iCloud at least so it shouldn't be too painful.
Also, I did a hard reboot of the IPhone twice, and I am definitely connected to good WiFi / Internet.
