• two-factor authentication is not available for your apple at the moment ID

  (two-factor authentication is not available for your apple at the moment ID), how can I solve this problem? I can't run many features such as Apple Watch unlock in Sierra, please help

  I had this same problem, the message that, ' two-factor authentication is not available for your apple at the moment ID. " All my devices have been updated to the latest version of the software, and all other requirements have been met. I couldn't use two-factor authentication and I couldn't open my mac using my Apple Watch.  After contacting the Apple Support, they told me that because I had an email address @mac.com older, this address was not "verified." And that the system was not able to verify the address by sending an email with a link as it does normally; He could do that for more recent @me and addresses of @icloud. Apple had to have a service technician manually to send me an email of check to my address @mac.com. I clicked on the link in the email (I don't need to enter other information), and two factors was not available instantly. Hope that you will find your problem will be solved.

• Two-factor authentication is not available for the Apple ID of the child?

  iPhone 6 s, iOS 9.3

  Apple ID child account, tried to activate two-factor authentication for it but could not find the option enable iCloud / password and security...

  Is this by design? Or should I still wait... I thought that all Apple ID accounts are now available for, once upgraded to iOS 9.3, two-factor authentication.

• Cannot configure two-factor authentication

  "Two-factor authentication is not available for your Apple ID at this time."

  I tried to put in place my authentication to two factors for awhile now (8 months) and I can not even get it to the installation program. The above error message keeps popping up.

  However, when I tried setting up the browser, he said he sent the code to my cell phone number - but I never receive.

  It was also a pain to have my restored keychain. But fortunately this incident solved by Apple!

  Anyone know what the error message?

  Creating a new ID is not a viable solution; at least not for me.

  Thanks in advance!

  Kind regards

  The signature in your post indicates that you run Yosemite. Two-factor authentication is available only if you run El Capitan and also to meet any other conditions. Even in this case it is not available to you because it is implemented gradually. I meet all the requirements and it is not yet available for me.  For more information, see availability of iOS in two factor authentication 9 and OS X El Capitan - Apple Support .

  Until two-factor authentication is made available to you, you should be able to use the two-step verification which is similar. Frequently asked questions about check in two steps for Apple ID - Apple Support

• Not available two-factor authentication

  Hello.  When I implement two-factor authentication, it is said that it is not available on my device.  All my devices are perfectly up-to-date.  Anyone know why this is happening?

  It is implemented slowly - apparently very slowly. It is not available for me yet either and I meet all the criteria. See the quote below from availability of iOS in two factor authentication 9 and OS X El Capitan - Apple Support

  With hundreds of millions of users in the ecosystem of Apple using a variety of devices and software versions, it will take time. To ensure the best possible experience, we will ride two-factor gradually starting this fall.

  Two-factor authentication will be available to users who match the conditions of system below on all devices that they use with their ID of Apple.

  • iPhone, iPad or iPod touch with iOS 9
  • Mac OS X El Capitan with iTunes 12.3
  • Apple Watch with watch OS 2
  • Apple TV (4th generation) with tvOS
  • Windows PC with iCloud for Windows v.5 and iTunes 12.3

  Other criteria will also be used to determine availability. So even if you meet all the requirements of the system, could not immediately provide authentication to two factors. We will increase availability over time, until we can offer the feature to everyone.

• Everyone uses two-factor authentication still?

  According to the Apple HT204915, two-factor authentication will become available for an unspecified number of users "this fall" and then gradually in gradually to more and more of us. As article exists for a few months, it sometimes means between September 21 and December 21, 2015 (but it is now January 2, 2016, and the document has not been revised because of the calendar). For me, system preferences says it is not yet available. It is available to anyone? How it works?

  I had the same exact issue. With my account, I had turned on two-step verification when this system came online. I was waiting to move to two-factor authentication, but was never presented with the option to activate it. Anyway, I called Apple and they said that the two were available for my account. On this basis, I disabled the two-step verification and was then allowed to enable two-factor authentication.

  Not sure if you are in the same boat, or if what I've written makes no sense. But, hope this helps.

• Can I use with two-step verification account recovery?

  I was reading about how you can use regain access to your account with two-factor authentication.

  Regain access to your Apple ID with two factor authentication - Apple Support account recovery

  Given that two-factor authentication is not yet available for my account, I was looking for to put in place the two-step verification.

  Any type of account recovery is available for users of two-step verification?

  Or this option is available only for users of two-factor authentication?

  Want to add more security to my account, I would like firstly to determine what are the dining options.

  From my understanding, there is not a recovery option to account for users of two-step verification.

  If someone could confirm please would be great.

  "Recovery"?  What are exactly are you afraid to lose and need to recover?  Your password?  No, two-step verification can help.  The approach is quite different from two-factor authentication:

  Frequently asked questions about the audit in two steps for Apple ID - Apple Support

  I'm confused as to why Apple would use two different expressions for what seems to be the same:

  • "Two -authentication"- and
  • "Two -step".

  The above two articles begin with a statement like: [underlining is unique, "BOLD" is synonymous with]

  "Two-factor authentication is just an extra layer of security of your ID Apple aiming to sure you are the only person who can access to your account, even if someone knows your password."

  «The two-step verification is an additional security feature for your Apple which designed to prevent anyone to access or use your account, same ID is they know your password.»

  Maybe someone with more experience can shed some light on your question and MY confusion?

  You can not. Two Apple factor authentication is a feature of iOS and OS X, based on your AppleID being associated with iCloud account to send and receive authentication 6-digit codes. An AppleID that is not associated with iCloud account cannot be used for 2-factor authentication.

  I currently have the two-step verification enabled on my devices (iMac OS X 10.11.5, 6s and 9.3.2 iOS iPad iPhone), but I've recently learned that two-factor authentication is available.

  2. do I need to disable the two steps before moving on to two factors, if I decide to change?

  Hello r0be1,

  Thank you for using communities Support from Apple. I know have a problem with two-step verification, it's not what you expect. If I understand correctly, you cannot check your SMS compatible phone, as stated in the article you condition. There are certain requirements, as you cannot use the fixed or the web of phone (VOIP) for the two-step verification services, and not all carriers support two-step SMS, as this article shows verification which carriers are eligible:
