how do I go about activating apple tv on apple tv device? Everytime I try to log in it tells me that it needs a validation code but doesn't provide me a place to type it in.

  • Apple TV asks for Apple ID password, enter it.
  • An authentication code will be sent to your iPhone or iPad or Mac.
  • Apple TV asks for the Apple ID password again, enter it followed by the authentication code. For example if your Apple ID password is XYZ123 and the authentication code is 4567 enter XYZ1234567


Do this quickly or it will time out!
