Hi tfhbar,


Thanks for contacting Apple Support Communities!


We understand that you're seeing an alert to verify your device password to continue using iCloud on your Mac, correct?


Is the device that it's asking you to confirm your Mac or a different device? If it's for a different device, do you still use this device with the same Apple ID?


If it's referencing a device you no longer use, you can sign into the Apple ID website and remove the device you're seeing the alert for. You can sign into the Apple ID website here: Apple ID Sign In


Once you've removed the device, if that's the case, go ahead and restart your Mac and check for the same alert.


If you're experiencing something different, we'd suggest that you contact Apple as they can review your account with you. You can find their contact details here: Contact Apple Support 


Take care!
