    I am having the same problem, I can not get the second code. I have tried several things from utube. Nothing works. I do not remember checking to get the Two-Factor Authentication. When accessing my account it just popped up you need an authentication code. So if anyone has an answer, please share

    You may try to ask Facebook for help when log in your a/c , then click need another way to authenticate. then, you will be asked to upload ID.

    The problem is, Facebook has no very limited service for non business account like us.. Facebook never came back and help me for log in issue since this June with my more than 10 times uploads with no return at all.

    Hate to say, get away from Facebook, as you will not get any help when needed. Just down load all the pictures from friends a/c and go or open another free a/c.

    I never had luck with the authenticator app. When it keeps saying unable to find authenticator app or somewhere I chose to submit my ID to prove it was me. Couple days later I was back in finally.
