I just received a birthday invitation through iCloud, which is pretty weird since I don't even have an iPhone. I have an Apple ID for Apple TV and when I try to log in, it first sends me a security code via email, which I entered. After that, it prompts me to enter a security number, and there's a picture of a VISA card. I'm assuming it's asking for the CVV code, but none of the ones I've tried seem to work. I can't log in at all! Is there any way to access my account without changing the card information since I can't log in? My account is fairly new, so I'm confused about why this is happening. I've had issues with my Apple ID before, and honestly, it's really frustrating.

It sounds like your Apple account might be using an outdated security type. Try going to the Apple TV site directly and signing in there without worrying about the CVV verification. Once you’re in, you can update your payment info. If it prompts you to upgrade your security settings, just follow those steps.

Dude. It worked! You're a legend, thank you!
