I'm trying to set up an ipad with two factor authentication... however there is no other device connected to it or its phone number/icloud or anything. It's the original. In order for me to set up the phone number that is assigned to the ipad in messages or facetime I have to get a verification code... but I can't get the code because it's not set up because I can't set it up without a code. I'm totally lost here.
