If it doesn’t allow you to login and keeps sending the code to your phone and says it sent to the app and the app is already open, try using another device to login, then it should work. I used a computer and it sent the code to my phone, so you need two devices in order for it to work.
Maybe try turning on 2-factor authentication in your Microsoft account settings. Also, you will find the settings for push notification devices there. See if your device is added.
Fed up with the hubris Microsoft exhibits thinking all users should have the same knowledge base that those who designed this virus have. I'll just throw this entire Microsoft design team on to the flight deck of one of my 747's at 36,000' over the middle of the Pacific, heave a one page instruction document at them and hope they can land it. Same thing they do to us on a software level.
But after reinstallation and update the app, that 6 digit 30sec code would be modified as 8 digit code. My login with my company portal wouldn't be done. Please try to guide me in this. I am waiting fir your positive response.
Pretty good video, but just a little fast & kinda assumes that you know what it will do and act like. Would like to see some diagramming to see how this all works with different accounts. Don't care aboutusing the app for passwords as I already have a better app for that.
@1:17 you should add that sometimes you have to click on your initials in the top right and choose account for it to land on your account page. Mine was automatically landing on my Microsoft 365 page.
it keeps telling me that i have to download authenticator to my laptop, although it's not available for a computer. There is no place to enter any other information
This is a nightmare. I set up the app in my old phone (which i lost) and now I'm trying to set it up again and I must approve from my old app. Like this is driving me nuts because wow.
Hi All i am using my Microsoft authenticator app using android mobile with multiple organization accounts. If i want to use my new organization account , I was unable to remove or delete the previous accounts which were greyed in status of authenticator app. Please provide any inputs on this issue. Thanks in advance.
sir, can I do new registration again on TCS Next Step, will there be any issue of Aadhar Card? because if I did it for the first time, I did a mistake in the due to some reason....
Do you need to have the app opened for the 2FA popup to appear? The 2FA popup of Google appears as soon as you've unlocked your phone, that's much better than having to view notifications and clicking the right one, and then when the authenticator app has finally opened and shows the 2FA popup, you'll click approve. Heck maybe you even need to close the authenticator app afterwards.. Do tell, but I suspect this is the case, as I watched a few of these videos and none of them showed what I want. So then it's not an improvement over the normal app that I already had, which has the same authentication as an additional feature
My MS Authenticator opens automatically when I log in to my MS account. However, for other accounts, I open the app and copy the codes. It's the same with Google. Google is built into Android, so we get a notification when we log into our Google account. For others, you must open the authenticator app (whatever you have installed).
I don't have a microsoft account, I only have a corporate outlook account. I'm required to have this Authenticator app to access the emails, but I can't get the App to link to Outlook. What am I doing wrong???
If the Authenticator app tells you to put in code while on the app or it doesn’t let you you have to call the place your getting the code from ask for help and they should reset your acc and let you re do everything nothing will reset if you know you had the app before and erased it and trying to log back in this will wokr
I have opened the app, and Microsoft is telling me to open the app to verify a number they’ve sent or something like that, it’s so annoying does anyone have a solution?
I am facing the same issue, cannot login because it says use authenticator. My authenticator got reset and when adding my work email in the authenticator app itself it says use code from authenticator. What the hell is this loop. I am fed up.
Hi why is that i would like to login into my Microsoft teams and Live account , the verification code is 8 digit from the authenticator app, whereas it only needed 6 digits for the laptop. I need help tq :)
Microsoft accounts need an 8-digit code. If it is your Teams/Live account, that means it is a Microsoft account. If it says 6 digits, I don't think its a Microsoft account.
Hi bro I am facing one issue. I have not enabled two-step verification and my mistake I have deleted my app. Now I want to open again but I am not able to approve it and I am not getting other options after putting mail and password.
Many users face this issue. Usually, when you log in to your Microsoft account, you get a notification on MS Authenticator to tap and log in. Are you getting that notification? If not, you should check the app settings. Also, if nothing works, you can ask your Admin to remove 2FA completely. Please note that I've never been in this situation, so I'm only suggesting here what I found on the internet.
I want to know why after I sign in and am working, it requires me to Authtincate every few minutes? I asked my work help desk and they said even they have to do that. But my fellow employees say theirs doesn't do that.

So when I am logging in to Office 365, it is asking me for the code being displayed on my Authenticator app, and it just isn't working because I'm not logged in to it on my new phone. When I try to log in to it on my phone, it asks for either sign-in details or a QR code. I can't get to the QR code, because it wants me to enter the code from the app to access that online. I can't sign in the other way either because as soon as I've entered my login details, It is asking for the code again!!!

Authenticator is very dumb. If I didn't bring my phone it has an option: don't have phone with me, click on that, you'll be diverted to option to choose to INPUT DIGIT into your phone. Duh... phone isn't with me in the first place!!!! Dumass crap we don't need
Because just when the world was getting FED UP with single username and password authentication Microsoft insists we should have DUEL FACTOR authentication! WTF!! This virus app only replicates the features my iPhone already has!!
Why are you skipping the most important part?😂 I can assure you most of the people here want to know how to “log in” without getting asked about this stupid authenticator number.
I'm sorry about that. When you add your Microsoft account, it is simple to log in. Just log in to your account on your PC/phone, and it will send a notification to your phone. Click "Accept" to log in. You don't need the code to log in to your Microsoft account.
