Hi,
I recently bought a used Apple TV 3rd Gen (A1469) from Value Village. It works perfectly fine with internet and apps, but it isn’t connecting to my iCloud. I’ve tried the 2-Step Verification by typing in my password and then the Verification Code from my iPhone. It still isn’t working even a day after trying it multiple times. (PS: It’s running tvOS 7.7, if that helps whatsoever)

If you have an Apple TV (2nd or 3rd generation) and two-factor authentication for your Apple ID, then you may be asked to type your password followed by the six-digit verification code directly into the password field. Additionally, there is a time limit, after which the code becomes invalid.
Try this: First enter the characters of your password (do not submit yet), then manually request a new verification code, then append that code to the password (no spaces or other separating characters), and then submit. That should help you get passed the time limit.
(PS: It’s running tvOS 7.7, if that helps whatsoever)
Excellent. Then it is up-to-date.
