Mac OS 10.15.1 FF 71.0 (64-bit) IOS 13.2.3 FF 20.2 (16690)

Since the Mac upgrade, I can get my ifon synced using the 2FA SMS sent. But when I try to sign in my iPad keeps getting the message "the request was blocked for security reasons."

I do not get an email or text notification from Mozilla that the iPad is trying to log in. (although I do get emails and 2-factor authentication emails).

When I try to use the 2FA sent by FF to activate an account, I'm sent (on the iPad) to the Google Play store.

I've deleted, restarted & reinstalled on the iPad.

I really need this iPad to work for...well...Work.

I just don't have a clue what else to do.
