iCloud Log in Problem with Apple TV 2010 series A1378

I'm using 2nd generation Apple TV A1378 and I can't log in my iCloud account. My password is correct and my iCloud account. It keeps saying password is incorrect but on my iPhone apple keeps sending verification number while I log in. What's wrong? I hope you can help me.

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.
