Cannot Login to Apple TV
The password that I use for my iPhone and I Pad is the same that I use for Apple TV. However, using that same password doesn’t allow me to login to Apple TV.
any solution?

That would be 2nd generation.
saying that I should use that as the password.
A bit different: both should be entered.
If you have an Apple TV (2nd or 3rd generation) and two-factor authentication for your Apple ID, then you may be asked to type your password followed by the six-digit verification code directly into the password field. Additionally, there is a time limit, after which the code becomes invalid.
Try this: First enter the characters of your password (do not submit yet), then manually request a new verification code, then append that code to the password (no spaces or other separating characters), and then submit. That should help you get passed the time limit.

It’s either a second or third generation.
The model # which I got by going to Settings is…MC572ll/A
When I tried to log in today, I got the same error message. However, my iPad showed an inquiry as to whether I had authorized an attempt to sign in to Apple TV . I replied yes and the iPad sent another message with a 6 digit number,saying that I should use that as the password. However, the 6 digit number didn’t work either.
