How do I change my iCloud password without 'Continue on Mac' prompt?

When I try to change my password, it says "Continue on Mac," but I haven't linked any other device to my iCloud. What should I do?

Often the "Continue on one of your devices" message can be part of the implementation of the Passkey feature. In your case though I suspect this section from Change your Apple Account password - Apple Support is to what this is referring.:

"Use a trusted Apple device

The easiest and most secure way to change your Apple Account password is to use your iPhone or another trusted device — one on which you’ve already signed in to your Apple Account using two-factor authentication, so that we know it’s yours."




Your post seems a little unclear to me …


… do you not have a Mac (or any other “Trusted Device”) ???


The Apple Account website redirects you to a trusted device to manage your Apple Account, when possible. But if you don't have a trusted device, you might be able to change your Apple Account password on the web.
