2 step authentication on older iphones I have an old iphone that I have wiped to use simply as a media player...basically as an iPod. As I am attempting to restore from an iCloud back up the following occurs. I enter my Apple ID email and password. I get the message that additional authentication is required. I receive the 2 step authentication password sent to my other device But, the older iPhone I am attempting to restore does not give a field to enter the code. It just returns to the email / password page. Is there a way to bypass the 2 Step Authentication for older devices that came out before 2-Step Authentication was a thing?

Please clarify. What do you mean by "authenticate files"?
