I know this is an old post but I just had the same problem and when I searched for a solution this thread came up. It looks like nobody replied to you with a solution but since I found one I thought I would post here in case someone else comes along and needs an answer. When I had the same issue the message actually said to enter the verification code, the one you are sent on a different device, directly after you type your password. So when I went back to my iPad 1 to sign into the App Store and had to put in my password I just typed the six number verification directly after I typed my password on the same line and it signed me back into the App Store on my old iPad. You were probably doing what I did which was looking for a separate place to enter the verification numbers but apparently you don’t have to - just type your password and immediately enter the six digit verification number that you are sent as if it is part of your password. I hope this helps someone.

From the app store. I put in my password, and it gives a box that says something onlong the line of you need to put the verification number in with the password, but there is no place to put in the verification code.
Instead of "something along the line" could you give us the exact message or better yet a screen shot?
I don't know how to do a screenshot on the iPad. After it asked for my password and I entered it, I got:
"An Apple ID verification code is requred to sign in. Type your password followed by the verification code shown on your other devices." "Cancel" "Retry"
If I do "Retry" I just get the "Apple ID Password" my email name, and a box to put the password. No place to put the verification code. This is the iPad 1, which has an operation system of 5.1. It cannot be upgraded any more.
Thanks Tilliebird. Your solution worked. Surprising that Apple didn't want to make this more clear in their messages.
Worked perfectly
Type password+verification code.
