Red dot on my system preferences notifications that won't go away

changed my AppleID password, and now I have a red notification circle on my system prefs icon in the dock on my iMac that won't go away no matter what I do. When I open system prefs the red dot shows on notifications, but nothing I do in there changes it. I ***hate*** having red dots!!


Help!

go to system preferences—> iCloud—> account details. Are you prompted for Apple ID password? Since you changed it, it might needs to be updated
