Amit Srivastava give this detail here

Apple forcing developers to use two factors password security and follow these steps to enable it

On your apple device with iOS 9+

1. Go to Settings > iCloud > tap your Apple ID
2. Password & Security
3. Turn on Two-Factor Authentication

On your Mac Pro with OS X El Capitan or later

1. Go to Apple () menu > System Preferences > iCloud > Account Details

2. Click Security

3. Turn on Two-Factor Authentication

If you already use two-step verification, turn it off, then turn on two-factor authentication

Answer 2

The issue seems to be on the Apple's side and is not related to Two-Factor Authentication. I contacted the Apple Developer Support by filling in this form:

https://developer.apple.com/contact/apple-id/

They fixed the issue for my account by next day. I got this answer by email:

We believe this issue has been resolved. I encourage you to try to sign in to Xcode later on today. If you are still encountering this specific issue, please send us a screenshot of the error and steps to reproduce the issue.

Don't hesitate to contact the support team.

Answer 3

Seems like Apple is forcing developers to use 2 factors password security. i've fixed the issue by applying for 2 factors security and now its working

Answer 4

Apple has fixed the issue (at least for the moment). No need for the suggested two factor authentication workaround.
