Password not working on old mac

Hey my Mac is running on OS X Yosemite v10.10.5. I am signed into my iCloud account, however when using App Store it says I need to sign in again. When I sign in with my password that I know is correct (same one I use on all devices) it says your password is incorrect. However, I get a notification on my iPhone to allow a new sign in and receive a verification code. There is no where to enter the verification code on my Mac though.

If you don't see a code box, but you do see a password box, enter the password (ABC) followed by the code (123) or ABC123 (no spaces).
