Macbook Model #A1181 wont install OS X Yosemite

I think that 2 step verification isnt letting my computer access to my apple id because it says that my apple id or password is incorrect. I keep getting verification notifications everytime i try to sign in. Is there any other way around this

I juat recieved a old Mac computer and when i try to reinstall the os, it is telling me that I incorrectly entered the incorrect password. Even though i changed it. I do i install os x yosemite, without signing into the cloud? I just received an imac and it seems that the computer wont allow me to sign into my apple id, to reinstall os x yosemite. When i do, the verification code pops up on my phone, but not on the newly acquired imac. What do i do?

yosemite apple id and Update Help Hey everyone, i been trying to update my mac to mojave but is impossible. First i cant log in on apps store, it says that my password is wrong when i can login on icloud normally on any browser, after that i try to download the .dmg from apple website but when i try to open the file the message image corrupt appears. i start reading and in yosemite sometimes you have to update first to el capitan and then to mojave but still the same problem if i cant login to the appstore to download el capitan. The next thing i try was turning of the two step verification, on yosemite its always on so i try to remove my trust number from icloud security but the mesagge your request could not be completed at this time dont let me, so im crazy on this loop. Cheers

Reinstall OS X hangs on AppleID login I bought a new SSD for my 2011 Macbook Pro. I booted with CMD-R (and Shift-Alt-CMD-R) and I could erase/partition the new drive. However when I select the drive during the installation process it asks me to sign in with my AppleID to download from the App Store. This login is systematically refused. I've reset my password (although I could login with the old credentials on https://appleid.apple.com/ ) and I've tried creating a new AppleID. Both ID's login fine on https://appleid.apple.com/ but both ID's are refused in the installation process. Error messages vary between 'Your Apple ID or password is incorrect' or I get a button for 'Forgot password' which does nothing when you click on it. I do get 2FA notifications via SMS or other Apple devices, but I cannot enter the code during the installation process. Any suggestions on how to proceed? (ps, Downloading the image from Mac OS X Lion Installer and install from USB is impossible. Both USB ports are broken :-( )

when you get the code from a phone or tablet, insert it directly after the password on your AppleID.
