Hello dheiddys_girl,

Thank you for using Apple Support Communities. It's my understanding that you need to generate an app-specific password in order to use your Apple ID. I'm happy to help.

Please follow the steps below:
  1. Sign in to your Apple ID account page.
  2. In the Security section, click Generate Password below App-Specific Passwords.
  3. Follow the steps on your screen.

After you generate your app-specific password, enter or paste it into the password field of the app as you would normally.

Using app-specific passwords

Have a great day!
