Where do I "type your password followed by the verification code shown on your other devices"

I'm sure it's been asked and answered 10,000 times already, but can't find a **** thing in these discussions.

On an iPhone 4s, trying to sign into icloud (in icloud settings), I get the message "Apple ID Verification Code Required: type your password followed by the verification code shown on your other devices."

I get the verification number on an iPad.

Where on earth do I type this code!!!

Pressing "Ok" just puts me back to the sign in page and if I try to sign in it just repeats the process with a new code.

Thanks.

Hi, my problem is that i don't get a field to complete. the first time of entering the password it advises code will be sent and enter it after the password, i am then shown the OK button, if i say ok i get the code sent to trusted device, but then don't have anywhere to enter the password and the code. if i close the iCloud and reopen it goes back to the enter password which if i enter the password and verification code it tells me password incorrect and i then go into the same loop again.

Try typing the password for FaceTime (ABC), followed by the code (123) OR ABC123.

I got the code on my mobile device in which I signed in the same Apple ID/icloud. You can try this.

As soon as you get the verification code on your other device, click on Show All on iCloud, click on iCloud and enter your password. It worked for me.

I have this problem on MacOS 10.10.5. I try to buy something on the iTunes store, and I get a verification code on my phone but nowhere to enter it on the computer. Very frustrating!

I get no prompt on where to type the ID verification code, although the code arrives there is no where to type it on my desktop. Did you ever get a response? Any help would be much appreciated.

Thx!
