Unable To SetUp AirTag
I am unable to setup AirTags with either my iPhone 14 (iOS 16.6.1) or my iPad Pro 11" (iOS 1.6.6.1).
I am logged into my Apple account. I am actively updating apps, downloading music, texting, etc.
I have 2FA enabled. I have two brand new AirTags. My first ones. This issue occurs with both AirTags and exactly the same error on both devices.
- Bring the new AirTag close to my iPhone or ipad
- Unlock the device
- The AirTag setup window pops up automatically
- I select "Connect"
- I accept the first available name, Backpack
- I Agree to the conditions
it says, "connecting..." for a few seconds, then the error: "Could Not Complete AirTag Setup. To setup this airtag, sign in with your Apple ID in Settings"
A previous poster had the same issue, and the Apple response was unhelpful. It did not address the issue he described. Is there an additional location within Settings where I need to log into my Apple ID? Is this a known issue? How may it be resolved?
