The procedure then requires you to type in the verification code sent to your iPhone when prompted.&nbsp;<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, there&rsquo;s a chance that you won&rsquo;t receive the code due to some glitches.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Although this may seem like a significant problem, you can actually resolve it quite easily in a few minutes. Solutions like resetting your network settings to default or restarting your phone will probably fix the issue.
