This morning I installed the program onto my laptop as I said that I would.  It went as smooth as apple pie and cheese.  I now have three codes on my Google Authentication App.  The third one clearly says "Laptop" without being told.

Now for the dumb question.  When you click copy on the setup authentication app, where does that copy go?  Or, are you supposed to physically copy that code to paper?  I didn't and I don't know where or what they are.  Thanks guys.  Where is Dennis when you need him?

Probably puts it in the computer's clipboard for use in pasting somewhere else, as in copy and paste.

 

I tried "Paste" and it was not an option.

You can't copy and paste from your phone to your computer, because those are two separate devices.

Just manually enter the code on your computer.

I am not talking about the code on the phone.  I am referring to the long code that they give you and tell you to copy and save.  It is to be used in case you ever do not have access to your phone.
