I’m able to sign in smoothly from my mobile device. But on my computer, after receiving the 2FA code, Apple prompts me to change my password even though I don’t need to. It seems confusing since it doesn’t ask for changes when logging in via mobile. Could there be a way to resolve this? I’d really like to keep using this password, especially since it’s my dad’s, and I don’t want to complicate things by losing synchronization.
Spidey feels a strange sensation... Suggest using RKILL and ADWCleaner right away to confirm there are no intruders. After some searching, it looks like this is genuine software from Apple that can't be avoided, but it's worth trying the above steps just in case.
It seems they’re likely trying to secure your account by monitoring multiple devices. They suspect the login might be unsafe and recommend updating your password. The focus isn’t on the phones but on ensuring you’re using a proper Apple ID. Ideally, your dad could add you to his family group for easier management.
I don't have an apple device at the moment, so that's not required for me. The issue is I don't want to alter my dad's Apple ID password. The login happened on the same network, and my PC is trusted since it was connected to his iPhone before. Also, this isn't a Mac—it's a Windows machine.
