Can you clarify what exactly you are prompted for and what you are entering?

The way I read your post.. when you are prompted, you enter your Apple ID and your (iPhone?) passcode.

Your passcode and Apple ID, as far as I'm aware, are never entered/paired together.

If being asked to log in with your Apple ID, you would use your Apple ID & Apple ID password, not a passcode.
