That has never been associated with your AppleID nor used to make a purchase on your account. This is important. And the second factor authentication only kicks in when you ADD the account. So, if you have a device that has been associated with your AppleID before, it's not going to bother you with the two-factor thing. Basically, it's designed to be as least annoying as it can possibly be. -- If you think that Mick Jagger will still be doing the whole rock star thing at age fifty, well, then, you are sorely, sorely mistaken. _______________________________________________ MacOSX-talk mailing list [email protected] http://www.omnigroup.com/mailman/listinfo/macosx-talk
