Setting up my new HomePod mini

Hello,

I am trying to set up my new HomePod mini with my iPhone, but when I hit Setup Botton on the popup box of HomePod mini, it asks for signing in with my iTunes and activating Two-factor authentication (I attached a screenshot), which I already did. How can I fix this problem?

Thank you

You have to enable two factor authentication to set up HomePod

Check that two-factor authentication is turned on for your Apple ID and iCloud Keychain is turned on

To check if two-factor authentication is turned on, go to Settings > [Your Name] > Password & Security. If two-factor authentication isn't set up, select the option to enable it and follow the steps.
To check if iCloud Keychain is turned on, go to Settings > [Your Name] > iCloud. Scroll down and check that Keychain is on. If it isn't, tap Keychain and turn it on. If prompted, follow the steps to set up iCloud Keychain.

Im sorry, if you said you already did all this then just try signing out of iCloud or iTunes on your iOS device then sign back in. You need to be signed into your Apple ID to begin set up. Update your device to the latest software as well. Once you’ve set up the mini you should also update its software from the home app.
