Hello jvictorcas,


This is from The Microsoft Support Site. Its the last dropdown from the bottom of the page information.

  1. "Go to the Apple ID website from your browser and enter your Apple ID and password.
  2. If you've already turned on two-factor authentication, you'll receive a code on one of your devices. Enter this code to continue. Otherwise, turn on two-factor authentication.
  3. In the Security section, under APP-SPECIFIC PASSWORDS, select Generate Password...
  4. Enter a name for your password, such as Outlook, and select Create.
  5. Apple will display an app password for you. Make a note of this password (without the spaces) and use this as the password when adding a new account to Outlook."


I hope this helps.
