Hello folks!

I turned on 2FA recently and it's been working okay but have an annoying problem. Every day or so my Mac gets logged out of iCloud and I have to re-enter my password to enable it again.

I've tried changing the password to see if it was a caching issue, but nope... in a couple days it asked again. Then asked again the following day.

I'm starting to regret turning on 2FA!!

Is there a fix for this? Or am I doomed keep having to enter my password every 1-2 days forever? I'm hesitant to turn off 2FA, being a security minded sysadmin type.
