Hi,
I have several Apple computers. On my iMac (only that), when I log in say to the discussion board. I sent a code to my iPhone as well as the same iMac to verify!
Isn't this a bug? If my iMac gets stolen, the person can verify it as the code is sent to the same device.
How can I fix this, please?
Hi chikitin,
That is normal behavior.
The code is only sent to other devices when you are singing into a device for the first time.
Also, this security measure is put in place to prevent people from across the world gaining access to your Apple ID. If someone across the world knows your Apple ID and password, and they attempt to login, they can't, since you're across the world with the only one with the Apple ID code.
If you have any other questions let me know.
Cheers,
Jack

Verification Code is sent to the same computer I am trying to login!
