Get a verification code and sign in with two-factor authentication - Apple Support


If you lack a way to view a verification code but can still log into your Apple Account, add a way. "You can manage your trusted phone numbers, trusted devices, and other account information from your Apple ID account page." --> https://appleid.apple.com/

From: https://support.apple.com/HT204915


If you have no available trusted devices or numbers, and cannot sign into your account (such as when you have a forgotten password) to add a way to get a verification code, read:

Recover your Apple ID when you can’t reset your password - https://support.apple.com/HT204921

"The fastest and easiest way to reset your password is from an Apple device. Before you start the account recovery waiting period, try to reset your forgotten password on a trusted device. Or borrow a friend or family member’s iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch and use the Find My iPhone app to reset your password. You can even visit an Apple Store and ask to use a device on site."
