iCloud encountered an error while trying to connect to the server.

I click Report to Apple, send the Report, then click OK, but the error comes back over and over. Refer attached screenshots. This occurs regularly on Mac and Windows platforms, in all OS.


URL at point of error:https://icloud.cdn-apple.com/

URL attempted: www.icloud.com

App previously loaderd at this address: Notes


I have also previously reported this through the www.apple.com/feedback

but to no avail.
