The user to whom you’re replying most likely has Two-Step Verification enabled on their account, which is why they received a prompt on their Apple device. If you do not have an Apple device this particular step could not apply to you.

- tracker1 8y agoYeah, and I no longer work for the company with that second device. I don't get the down-votes (Apple apologists). I had to go through this just a couple months ago.

- satysin 8y agoI had a similar issue. I removed the device from my account with a call to Apple so it could fall back to SMS.
