AppleID

Why is it that AppleID never recognizes my computer? Every time it says I am logging in from a new device, and asks if I "trust" that "new" device. For example, look at this ridiculous sight:

MacBook Air 13″, macOS 12.2

Apple ID access after OS upgrade Hello, I have trouble accessing the iTunes store (or iCloud as it were) when asked to enter my account name and password. My access works on the other linked devices, desktop Mac computer and the iPhone, but not on the laptop (13 inch Mac Book Pro mid 2012) which I've upgraded to Mac Os Sierra. It gives me a warning message that "there was an error accessing the Apple ID Server". I've reset the password, entered the verification codes on all devices and followed the instructions but can't figure out where the trouble is for the laptop... Any ideas? Thanks.

I can't log in to my apple id I recently updated my software to Monterey 12.6.3 version (macbook pro retina mid 2015 ), but now I cant log in to my apple id. When I try is says 'Cannot use your apple id on this device - your apple id can only be used on devices with ios 16.2 or later or macOS 13.1 or later. This macbook pro cannot be updated to the latest software'. Does this mean I have to buy a whole new macbook or is there an other way to log in to my apple id?

Why does Apple never recognise my or Mac or browser when I use them all the time? Every time I need to sign in to anything Apple related (and I think maybe even Google related such as Chrome) both my MacBook and Mac mini are never recognised. I ALWAYS have to have a verification code sent. It then works. Also, the stupid thing when it's Apple, is it sends it to the computer that I'm using. Not even via email, just directly onto the screen of the computer, so if it's not trusted, what difference will that make? Cheers.

Hi photojourn,

Thank you for posting in the Apple Support Communities. It sounds like you're getting repeated verification requests, correct? If so, we would love to help see if we can get the issue resolved for you. The most common reason this would happen is if you use a VPN or security software as the IP address isn't recognized as the same. Check out the below link for additional information.
