Cant get autentication to work on RaspberryPi

[SwedishPi]

Hi

Ive been running icloudpd for several years all flawless.
But thanks to a system crach ive reinstalled Raspbian and Icloudpd but now i cant get it to autenticate,

Get an error saying:
2024-08-05 21:23:20 ERROR Missing apple_id field (Missing apple_id field)
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "pyicloud_ipd/base.py", line 241, in _authenticate_with_token

pyicloud_ipd.exceptions.PyiCloudAPIResponseException: Missing apple_id field (Missing apple_id field)

The above exception was the direct cause of the following exception:

Traceback (most recent call last):

pyicloud_ipd.exceptions.PyiCloudFailedLoginException: ('Invalid authentication token.', PyiCloudAPIResponseException('Missing apple_id field (Missing apple_id field)'))

Ive tryed both with the same textstring ive used before and just to make it autenticate but no one works.

Hope you have a solution for me, been googling a lot this week but cant find anything useful.

I saw a number of reports about 'Missing apple_id field' error. We have not figured out what is going on. I would be surprised if it is related to platform (rpi), most likely account/auth. You can delete ~/.pyicloud folder to "reset" authentication.

Are you using 2fa for that account? Trying to see pattern in errors.

Unrelated to your error: What rpi are you using? How did you install icloudpd there (e.g. pip)? Curious as this is uncommon setup AFAIK.

Hi again

Im using an RPI2 with latest OS, ive also tryed with an RPI1 and older OS and an RPI3 with the newest and a bit older OS but they all get te same result.

Im not using 2fa autetication on this account, because it did cause a lot of trouble with icloudpd when apple first introduced 2fa.

tryed to delete ./pyicloud but get the same result.

Yes ive installed icloudpd with pip.

Hope this can give you same idea about whats going wrong.

2FA is required for all new accounts now, so it will be hard to reproduce this error (and fix) if it is indeed related to 2fa...

[AndreyNikiforov]

#920 suggests that locked accounts may cause such errors. Unlocking through icloud.com helped

[AndreyNikiforov]

#959 suggests that missing apple_id is related to accounts without 2fa. Unrelated to host platform.
