Can't Enroll in iOS Developer Program because of 2FA

Question

I am trying to sign up for the paid developer program. I enabled 2FA with my AppleID and verified a trusted phone number and a trusted device. I keep seeing this: Two-factor Authentication

Your Apple ID currently has two-step verification turned on, but two-factor authentication is required. After you turn on two-factor authentication, signing in to your developer account will require both your password and access to your trusted devices or trusted phone number.

To learn more, see Two-factor authentication for Apple ID.

I can't understand what else can I do.

Answer 1

I solved this. In my case I had my daily Apple ID and user account but we needed a group Apple ID to develop on XCode that wasn't associated with a specific user.

• I assume you have a mac to work.
• First, create a new user account (no admin privilegdes needed for this account). Then, enable iCloud on this device with the new Apple ID (Which I guess, is a secondary account, like in my case) (Preferences > iCloud)
• Then, you can enable 2FA on that account following the preferences.
• Of course, it would be very inconvenient to switch to this account each time you need 2FA but you don't need to. You can now switch to your daily Mac user, and add the Apple ID under Preferences > Internet Accounts > new iCloud account.
• Now you will receive the 2FA messages on your daily mac account.
• You can even remove that temporary user account on your mac.

I don't know how to do this without an Apple Device, but you can't use XCode without a Mac, right?

Answer 2

You have enrolled two-step verification (which sends a text message to your trusted device). You need to change to 2FA

Answer 3

Okay... I find out how to work this around as long as you have macbook pro. Simply create another user with admin access.

Create user with your developer account credential.
