Hey there ptkmac,


If you're having trouble when using app-specific passwords, use the guidance below:


How to generate an app-specific password
1. Sign in to appleid.apple.com.
2. In the Sign-In and Security section, select App-Specific Passwords.
3. Select Generate an app-specific password or select the Add button Blue plus sign icon., then follow the steps on your screen.
4. Enter or paste the app-specific password into the password field of the app.


For additional info: Sign in to apps with your Apple ID using app-specific passwords - Apple Support


If you need help with something else, feel free to reply back and provide more details regarding the issue and any apps/services included.


Take care!
