icloud_photos_downloader: [MacOS] Unknown reason authentication error

Overview

I previously used icloudpd without issue. I copied/pasted the command I used last time (don’t know which version) that worked but it doesn’t work this time in 1.16.2. It fails trying to login with 2FA. I tried many times, and manually logged into iCloud to be sure username and password are indeed correct.

Note in the error it says “Failed to send two-factor authentication code” however I received the SMS and also every one of my Apple devices prompted me asking to Allow/Deny too.

Steps to Reproduce

1. Run “icloudpd --directory /Users/brett/Downloads/iPhoneImport/Brett --username <my username>@icloud.com --password <my password> --recent 1340 --set-exif-datetime --folder-structure {:%Y/%m}”
2. Results in error:

MBP iPhone Import$ icloudpd --directory /Users/brett/Downloads/iPhoneImport/Brett --username <my username>@icloud.com --password <my password> --recent 1340 --set-exif-datetime --folder-structure {:%Y/%m}

Expected Behavior

Expected it would work, or give a better reason for failure. Especially unsure what the “Error: No such option: -B” that pops up means.

Actual Behavior

Didn’t work
