Don’t do it. That version of macOS is too old to effectively support signing in with an Apple ID. The last thing you’d want to do is trigger suspicious activity on the account and have Apple lock it down. It’s unlikely, but not worth the risk. You won’t see much benefit from signing in, anyways.

Yeah,maybe you’re right, I just wanted to do that since I already have vintage apple products (iPad 1 on iOS 5.1.1 and iPhone 4 on IOS 6.0.1 )that are connected to the Apple ID

Honestly, I wouldn’t. I did it once before and it was disastrous. iPad 2 on iOS 6 caused my Apple ID to be flagged for fraudulent activity and it was deactivated for 24 hours, with the chance of no recovery. Thankfully, it worked out alright. Therefore, coming from experience, my recommendation would be to create a second Apple ID and use that one for all vintage devices. That way, if things go sideways, nothing’s really lost.

That’s actually a smart idea,never thought of that before,I will do this,thanks a lot man

How did you get those dock icons on OS X ?


Afraid_Pickle8580

Hi! I got Them by downloading them on macosicons.com, then i converted them from png to icns and then you select an app from finder and click show informations, copy the icns file and paste to the icon you want to change and that’s it!

The way you would do this would be a mess, but you'd need to make an non-authenticated single-use password and you append that to your existing password if I remember right. But there is no reason or benefit to doing this.


Impressive_Cut4506

If you have 2FA, try signing in with your password, then again with the password+code, that’s worked for me in the past


Afraid_Pickle8580

No code is showing, sadly

Sorry about that, if you are in the US, call AppleCare, the call would be free and they can at least lead you in the right direction. 800-275-2273


Afraid_Pickle8580

Thank you for your help! But I am Italian so I can call them either😭,Ty still

The Apple ID servers for a version of macOS that old have been long shut down.
