Re: Reading app-specific passwords on the Apple-id page
Hi Simon and all, You only need this if you need to access your iCloud information via non-Apple apps such as Microsoft Outlook. That is my understanding anyway. Hopefully more people can chime in here.

RE: Reading app-specific passwords on the Apple-id page
Hi Daniel, I must be doing something wrong then as I've never struck this before. Although I've only once ever setup an iCloud email account. -Original Message- From: macvisionaries@googlegroups.com On Behalf Of Daniel Gartmann Sent: Thursday, 6 June 2019 7:55 PM To: macvisionaries@googlegroups.com Subject: Re: Reading app-specific passwords on the Apple-id page It is in the security section when logged into your Apple-ID. You need to generate an app-specific password if you want to connect a third-party app such as Outlook to your iCloud account. Nothing is sent. You need to read the password on the web page in the security section on your Apple-id page. You then need to copy that password over to Outlook and insert it into the account setup page there.

Re: Reading app-specific passwords on the Apple-id page
It is in the security section when logged into your Apple-ID. You need to generate an app-specific password if you want to connect a third-party app such as Outlook to your iCloud account. Nothing is sent. You need to read the password on the web page in the security section on your Apple-id page. You then need to copy that password over to Outlook and insert it into the account setup page there. Hope this makes it more clear.
