problems setting up homepod mini Hello, I bought a HomePod mini for a friend, visited them to set it up and ran into problems. The problem: When setting up new HomePod mini with an iPad 5th Gen (iPadOS 15.6.1, up to date), I get the following message: "To continue, set up the following on your iPhone. Two-factor Authentication, Sign into iTunes" The iPhone in question is an iPhone 6. Apple states the minimum requirement for HomePod mini setup is iPhone 6S. Two-factor authentication is On. And I have signed into the iTunes Store , signed up for an Apple Music subscription (6 months free trial). I tried signing out of iCloud on the iPhone, to try and remove it from the setup process, but I can't remember if I restarted it (as mentioned elsewhere). Perhaps not. When attempting setup again, the iPad continued to prompt me to continue setup on the iPhone, even though I had signed out of iCloud. My questions are: Shouldn't I be able to set up the HomePod with the iPad alone? When I return to my friends house, if I sign out of iCloud / iTunes Store on the iPhone 6, and restart the iPhone, is this likely to work / is this the accepted, proven fix? Any thoughts, insights much appreciated.
