My iPhone 11 Pro was and remains signed in to my Apple ID account. However, my MacBook Pro recently stopped accepting the same valid password, causing endless hassles. If I had to change the password, I'd have to take many hours to change it in ~20 places on >6 devices in several locations. My iPhone generates a Verification Code for that Apple ID account; is there some way I can use it to fix the log-in problem on my laptop?
