Sounds like what has happened to you is that you have two factor authentication turned on. IF the special code shows up on your iPHone, you need to make sure your curser is focused on the six boxes for that code. as you enter each digit, you are moved along to the next box. Now, here’s another posibility. Maybe the code you need is showing up in a seperate window on your desk top machine. In any case, you can just enter that code in to the six boxes and you should be fine. ON my Mac, one is moved from one box to the next automatically IF you are using a windows desk top, I cannot say for sure that this happens: but, based on your description, I’d guess it ain’t happening for you that way.
