What apps are not covered under two-step verification?

I am trying to determine if I need to create an app-specific password, in addition to the two-step verification that I just completed.  However, I won't bother if I don't need to worry about it.

If you don't see your devices listed it means that they either are using a different Apple ID for iCloud than the ID you are setting up two-step verification on, or they don't have Find My iPhone turned on in Settings>iCloud.  Make sure you are managing the same ID that you are using for iCloud on your devices, and that Find My iPhone is turned on on your devices.  You should then see them listed and be able to verify them.
You can enter a phone number for any cell phone that can receive SMS messages to verify that as a trusted device, even if it isn't listed.

  • HT4483 All my purchased app are not shown under "Purchase" in Mac App Store

    Hi,
    All my purchased app's are not shown under "Purchase" in the Mac App Store window. I have changed computer and need to re-install some of my purchased apps on my new computer but cannot find them. Please advice

    Two things may be behind this.   I see you have changed your computer.   Did that entail you changing your ID?   And there is also the possibility they have become hidden.

  • Mail app and google account with two step verification fail

    Hi,
    I try to add my gmail account to Mail app, but it says that login or password is incorrect. I'm using google 2 step verification, that means that I should generate an app-special password each time I use a new application with this google account. I've generated the password for gmail app and logged in successfully, but it doesn't work for Mail app (each application has it's own password).
    iOS 5.1.1 (9B206).
    Gmail app v. 1.2.7182
    Thank you in advance.

    I'm sorry. You misunderstood what I was saying - or perhaps I should say that I said it wrong. I meant that I was unfamiliar with this problem - that's all that I meant.
    The link for 4.0 is simply for iPads that are running iOS 4.0 or higher. That is what the link refers to. This is copied from the website
    Note: These setup instructions are for Apple devices running software version 4.0.
    View instructions for older software.
    It does not state it specifically, but it means 4.0 or higher. Google hasn't updated anything further for higher than iOS 5 that's all.
    But if you checked it out already or don't want to check it out because you think it doesn't apply - that's your prerogative.
    EDIT - your problem was solved as soon as I posted. Glad you got it all worked out!

    Hey Podducbnov,
    Thanks for the question. It sounds like you are trying to setup Two-Step Verification. After logging into http://appleid.apple.com, click "Password & Security". At this time you will probably be prompted to answer your security questions, go ahead and do so. Afterwards, the top section has a "Get started…" link to setup Two-Step Verification:

  • Mail and Gmail two-step verification

    For the last several days I've been encountering an issue with Mail.app and gmail where my application specific password is valid for one day only. This is not the case for the application specific password I have set up to work with Mail on my iPhone or any other apps. I have used two step verification successfully for months until one day, inexplicably, I was alerted that my password was incorrect. As I mentioned, this happens now on a daily basis.
    For what it's worth, I've tried what's listed in this thread to no avail.
    https://discussions.apple.com/message/15206873
    Any help would be appreciated.

    Hi All,
    I used to have that sort of problem,
    first you could go to the connection doctor on you mac (it's on your 'Window' - > 'Connection Doctor' )
    then check if your google account 'Smtp tab ' and 'Imap tab '  are all on the green light 
    If one of it is not connected ( Which means 'red' light ) , here is my solution .
    Go  your keychain access ( comman + space 'keychain' )
    click tab 'LOGIN'
    On the search tab Find either SMTP/IMAP  (Depend which got the red light) 
    There will be several accounts shown up if you have multiple email account registered on you mac mail.
    find manually the account of your gmail account (Double click each one of it to check which account it )
    Check again if you have 2 key chain on one single account
    After you find your google account on your key chain  and check the box "SHOW PASSWORD"
    Change the password according to the google 2 step verification password
    click save changes .  (enter your admin password)
    Hope this will help

  • Ios8 upgrade with two step verification

    I have and iPhone 5 and two step verification in place.  When I first upgraded to iOS 8 the upgrade process asked for my verification number.  I first chose iPhone, but I did not get a code.  I then went back and selected SMS to the phone number that I was upgrading.  Then the upgrade went though without me entering anything.  I'm assuming that iOS 8 just read my SMS message and went through with the upgrade.  I'm about to do the same with my daughter's (she has her own Apple ID and two step verification) iPhone 4s and I assume that it will work the same way?
    I could not find any detailed information on Apple's web site pertaining to this.

    Hi Les,
    If you've been asked to wait, I would try going back through the process to start two-step verification as described here:
    Apple ID: Frequently asked questions about two-step verification for Apple ID
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5570
    Set up two-step verification at My Apple ID (appleid.apple.com):
    Select "Manage your Apple ID" and sign in.
    Select "Password and Security."
    Under Two-Step Verification, select Get Started and follow the onscreen instructions.
    That article also explains why you had to wait, in case you were at all curious:
    Why was I asked to wait before setting up two-step verification?
    As a basic security measure, Apple does not allow two-step verification setup to proceed if any significant changes have recently been made to your account information. Significant changes can include a password reset or new security questions. This waiting period helps Apple ensure that you are the only person accessing or modifying your account. While you are in this waiting period, you can continue using your account as usual with all Apple services and stores.
    Apple will send an email to all the addresses you have on file notifying you of the waiting period and encouraging you to contact Apple Support if you think that someone else has unauthorized access to your account. You will be able to return to set up two-step verification after the date listed on your Apple ID account page and in the email that you receive.
    Note: When your waiting period is over, you will have 30 days to complete two-step verification setup. If you attempt to complete setup after 30 days have passed or if you have made significant changes to your account during that time, another waiting period may be triggered.
    Take care, Les!

  • Two step verification picky wrt cell provider

    Using a pay as you go cell phone on Rogers in Canada and can not set up two-step verification for my Apple ID. The SMS text message never shows up. I have no problem receiving other text messages from Yahoo or Microsoft. The majority of 2 factor authentication that I do is via Google Authenticator. I am not going to hold my breath on that ever being implemented on Apple IDs.

    You don't have to use it: it's optional though worth doing as a security measure. From what you say you were unable to complete the process so it shouldn't have been set up; if you want to use it you will need to start the process again.

  • Unable to login to iTunes (from appleTV) after apple ID two step verification enabled

    I recently enabled two step verification for appleID. Now when I attempt to use that appleID with my appleTV, I am unable to login to iTunes.  Should I not have enabled two step verification ?  Do I need to revert back to user name / password only for my appleID, which I use in conjunction with my appleTV ?
    help
    brianb

    dis-regard this problem. I was able to regain normal operation, once I reset my appleTV, and re-configured it using my current appleID. It is rather odd though that I need to re-set my appleTV each time I change my appleID.

  • HT5622 My apps are not updating as I have no longer access to my eariler apple Id and now I am using a new apple Id which is allowing to download  apps but while updating those apps my iPod wants eariler apple Id password to update what should I do ?

    My apps are not updating as I have no longer access to my eariler apple Id and now I am using a new apple Id which is allowing to download  apps but while updating those apps my iPod wants eariler apple Id password to update what should I do ?

    Hi Kanishk,
    Those apps are forever tied to the Apple ID they were purchased under. You can either delete them and re-purchase them, or you can go to Manage your Apple ID and reset the password on the old Apple ID so you can use it to update your apps: Apple - My Apple ID
    If you decide to continue to use them under the old ID password, I would suggest that when you reset that password, you change it to be the same password as the one you are currently using. That way when apps need to be updated you will only need to know one password and you won't have to be concerned with which Apple ID is displaying.
    Cheers,

  • How can I find out what apps are on my step daughters phone without the phone?

    How can I find out what apps are on my step daughters phone without the phone? She is on my phone plan but does not live with me and I am concerned about the apps she may be using.

        baniville108,
    Thank you for reaching out to us. We certainly know the importance of being able to know what options are available with your device. With apps on devices, thoses are specific to the phone itself, so there is no open forum to view what apps are downloaded. The only option would be to physically review from the phone, or if you have the same Apple ID you can log into it and view from there. Please let us know if you need anymore assistance.
    Thank you,

  • I restarted my mac and many apps and files disappeared. It's like it booted to a state several months ago. My CS 5 apps are not in the dock or applications folder. Has this ever happened before and what can I do?

    It's like it booted to a state it was in several months ago. My CS 5 apps are not in the dock or applications folder. Has this ever happened before and what can I do?
    The files on my desktop are not the ones that were there when I shut down. It's like it's gone back in time.
    My display's power supply got fried (I think) in a power outage so I bought a new one. However, every time I restart the display usually stays black. I have found I need to keep rebooting until it kicks in and starts working. I unplug everything, wait a while (a few minutes to overnight) and try booting again.
    This last time the display finally came on but I'm faced with this problem. I used to use time machine, but I deleted everything and disabled it a couple months ago or more so I'm at aloss as to why the mac is booting into the state it was in sevearl months ago.
    What could I have done to cause this? Has this ever happened to anyone else and is there a solution?
    Note: I did a search for a file I knew was created today. I found it and it showed that it was a file I had saved on the desktop this morning--even though that file's icon is not appearing on the desktop now.
    I did a search for photoshop and saw my CS5 version listed.
    However, I did a couple more searches and these files no longer appear in the search. I don't know if they're there or not. This is bizarre!
    I'm on a Mac Pro, 10.6.2.

    Thanks for the obvious question. I mean it. The very same thought came to me this morning and, sure enough, I had booted into another drive--my old one that, of course, had the old desktop, etc.
    It didn't dawn on me that this was the case since I hadn't set it as a boot drive but I guess in the course of all the restarts I did, it got switched.
    I'm back to normal again.

  • HT4972 I am using iphone 3g and it is having currently IOS 4.1 version,till what IOS version can i upgrade ? please help me many of my apps are not working esp whatsapp.

    am using iphone 3g and it is having currently IOS 4.1 version,till what IOS version can i upgrade ? please help me many of my apps are not working esp whatsapp.

    iOS 4.2.1 is the latest version of iOS for the 3G.
    Facebook and Whatsapp both require 4.3 or higher.
    If you want to use those apps, either use the old version that should be in your iTunes library or upgrade the hardware to a 3GS or newer device.

    From the Apple kb article about troubleshooting app store issues ....
    If all user-installed apps are not launching, it could be an Apple ID authorization issue. Download and install an app that isn't already installed on your device to reset this information.

  • HT5577 Devices and Recovery ID stolen. Unable to access account with two-step verification. Apple does not care. What can I do?

    Last year, my backpack containing my laptop and phone were stolen. My Recovery Key was saved as a screenshot on the laptop and on the phone and I have no other copy. I remotely wiped both devices. I had no insurance for such circumstances and replaced them at my own expense but I cannot access my AppleID account because Two-Step Verification is active and my old telephone number was replaced and I no longer have access to it. I can live with losing the devices as a result of my own stupidity, but Apple claims they are unable to restore my access to my old account in spite of the special circumstances. Apple can confirm my identity via my bank details and my email address but they do not seem to care. I've lost access to my music, software, calendars etc. I have a new AppleID - I had no other option but to set one up - but it irks me that Apple is unwilling to transfer purchases made on my old AppleID to my new one. I am considering taking legal action to regain my purchases and wonder if anybody else has found themselves in a similar situation.

    If apple tracked deviced they sold they would be violating a great number of privicy laws and would face class action and criminal lawsuits in most of the western countries

  • Lightening cable iphone 5 shows peeling and the service provider says not covered under guarantee.I can see this is a clear case manufacturing defect.What is the remedy

    I find the lightening cable that came with the iphone 5 showing peeling of rubber .
    I had taken it to the local support (service point) who says it is not covered under warranty.
    As an engineer I can vouch that this is a clear case of material defect.
    What is my remedy
    T.Srinivasan.
    Chennai India

    I had taken the Iphone 5 with lightening cable under warranty to the service supporter here in Chennai India and after logging in the complaint the support engineer had informed me that the same claim was rejected.
    This happened a couple of months ago and now I find almost the entire cable has peeled off (Insulation).
    Initially I thought there perhaps was a chance for handling (carrying etc in your laptop bag) that could have caused the same.Now I am convinced that the material defect is the problem.
    Is there a way to bring this to the attention of Apple by email probably with a photo for them to appreciate my problem as the service support engineer authorised is unable to appreciate the problem.
    Thanks for your reply
