How do i Approve my iPhone from Another Device

This is one of the most common mistakes when we ask iCloud to approve the device. Apple is taking full responsibility to ensure your data is safe, which is why even when you buy a new iPad or iPhone and sign into iCloud, you encounter the same question. You can approve it on iCloud from a Mac or another iOS device. First, we will focus on how to approve the iOS device on iCloud.

Approving Mac from iOS Device on iCloud

When you get a new Mac or upgrade the Mac OS, you need to approve it on iCloud, and you can do it by following these steps:

1. First, go to System Preferences on your Mac.

   

2. Next, choose iCloud.
3. Now, type your iCloud ID and password.
4. Once you are done with that, it will remind you that you need a 6-figure Apple ID Verification Code to approve this Mac. Just open your iPhone, which is signed into iCloud, and it will notify you that there is another device on that iCloud account asking for approval. Click allow, and it will give you the Apple ID Verification Code.
5. Enter the Apple ID Verification Code, and you have successfully approved your Mac on iCloud.

Approve iOS Device from Another Device on iCloud

Approving iOS devices is very similar to approving a Mac; there is just one difference you need to understand.

1. Go to Settings and choose iCloud.
2. Type in your iCloud ID and password.
3. Now, get the Apple ID Verification Code from another iPhone and enter the six figures.
4. The difference is that after you enter the Apple ID Verification Code, you will be asked to enter the iPhone passcode. Once you are done, you have finished approving the device on iCloud.

If nothing works for you, try to disable two-factor authentication or the iCloud keychain.

Sync Data

You can also backup your important data to iCloud from the device. When you want to access that iCloud backup data on other devices, you can sign in to that same iCloud account and follow all the steps mentioned above to restore iCloud backup data. However, there is another way to sync data to another iCloud account without needing to sign into another iCloud account and undergo the approval process. To do this, you will need help from an application on the App Store called “AnyTrans.” It is an easy and simple one-click data manager. AnyTrans enables you to transfer data without limits, like movies, photos, messages, music, and so on. To sync data from one iCloud account to another, follow these steps:

1. Download AnyTrans and install it either on your PC or Mac.
2. Unfold the Device Manager and click iCloud Manager.
3. Click Add iCloud Account to log in to your two iCloud accounts.
4. Now, scroll down to category management and click Photos.
5. Select the files you want to sync and click the “To iCloud” button, and they will be transferred.
