I can only ever get this to work by signing into appleid.apple.com on the web browser. Should be a spot right on the first menu for App Specific Password

This seems to be the solution. I found a thread where someone had the same problem and what you suggested fixed it for them.
thanks, i'll be sure to check that out
Are you trying this in Safari?
no, edge
Pretty sure it is a bug. Use a different browser and it should work fine, I used edge. I got apple support on the phone and this was this solution. Was not interested is making a bug report, just suggested I leave feedback which is just like pissing into the wind.
Use any other browser than Safari and it should work.
