Hello everyone,
I’m running into an issue when logging into my Apple Developer account on the official site. After entering my Apple ID and password, I immediately see:
too many verification codes sent
At this point I should receive a 6-digit 2FA code via SMS to my trusted phone number, but nothing ever arrives. I’ve waited from one to seven days and tried again, but I still get the same error and still no SMS.
I’ve double-checked that:
- My trusted phone number is correct in my Apple ID settings.
- My carrier isn’t blocking or rate-limiting SMS messages.
Steps to reproduce:
- Go to developer.apple.com and click “Sign In.”
- Enter Apple ID and password.
- Submit credentials → immediately see “too many verification codes sent.”
- No SMS arrives. Retrying doesn’t help.
Expected behavior:
- Apple sends a new 6-digit 2FA SMS to my trusted number.
- After entering it, I can complete the login flow.
Actual behavior:
- I receive the “too many verification codes sent” message instantly.
- I never get the SMS code, even after waiting or retrying.
Has anyone else experienced this on the standard Developer portal? Is there a way to clear the “too many verification codes sent” flag or otherwise force delivery of the 2FA SMS? Any advice would be greatly appreciated!
Thank you!
