Zusammenfassung:	Some embodiments provide a method for a first device to join a group of related devices. The method receives input of a password for an account with a centralized entity and a code generated by a second device in the group. When the second device determines that the code input on the first device matches the generated code, the method receives an authentication code from the second device for authorizing the first device with the entity as a valid device for the account. The method uses the password and information regarding the first device to generate an application to the group. After sending the application to the second device, the method receives information from the second device that enables the first device to add itself to the group. The second device verifies the generated application, and the method uses the information received from the second device to join the group.
