Hey there joshmuy4u,


If this is a new device you're setting up with your Apple ID and need a verification code to approve it, make sure you check your other devices to see if a code is available. If not, check to see if there's an option for "Can't approve this iPad" and select it for next steps.

If you enter your iCloud Security Code incorrectly too many times

Take care!
