I'm experiencing a horribly broken login process.
* Open login screen
* Switch to password app, copy password
* Switch back to Google Music, login screen loads again
* Enter credentials, 2-step verification screen loads
* Switch to Google Authenticator, get 2-step number
* Switch back to Google Music, user/password login screen loads again.
In short, I cannot authenticate using a single device, I'll have to use a second device to pull up the 2-auth number.
- Kudos 13y agoFor me it magically pulled in my account from another installed Google app (Google Drive maybe?).
- tvon 13y agoYup, I authenticated in the Drive app and it picked up that account. Thanks for the tip.
- smackfu 13y agoThe auth code is good for 30 seconds, can't you just time it right by getting the code before opening Google Music?
- craigc 13y agoThis exact same thing happened to me. What I did was went to the authenticator app and memorized the 6 digit number ahead of time. Then I logged in quickly (with my password already copied from 1Password) and put in the number from memory. Worked for me!
- sprokolopolis 13y agoYou should also be able to generate an app-specific password for google music. https://accounts.google.com/b/0/IssuedAuthSubTokens?hl=en&hide_authsub=1 https://accounts.google.com/b/0/IssuedAuthSubTokens?hl=en&hi...
