new ipad transfer stuck on Apple Account verification failed

I have a new iPad and transferring data from old iPad (iPad Air 2) to the new one (iPad A16 11th Gen).

But when the new iPad asked for the Apple ID password, it showed "Verification failed" even I definitely sure I key in the correct one.

Is there any solution that can go through it?

Thanks.

iPad (10th generation)

Unable to Login to Apple Account on New iPhone 17 Pro I am trying to setup my new iPhone 17 pro, but when I am asked to enter my Apple ID details I get an error - "Verification Failed - An unknown error occurred." I have used the same details on other apple devices without issue, why is this not working on my new iPhone? When I first started the transfer, the transfer process went ahead and my old phone number was transferred to eSim, then an iOS update was made, now I'm directed back to the transfer process start again, but am unable to login to my Apple account which means that I am unable to access the phone. Very frustrating, any ideas?
