Updating Apple ID Settings

All of my devices are asking me to update Apple ID settings - we go into settings - update Apple id settings press continue - enter password and press sign in. Phone or iPad says Updating Apple ID settings for 30 secs and then clicks back onto Update Apple ID settings and the process begins again - have gone through these steps numerous times over the last 2 weeks to no change. I have logged out of iCloud - no change, Reset all my settings - no change. Apple watch is useless as when it times out you need to enter password just to see the time. Please help!!

have signed out of icloud and back on...same thing all over again...go thru the "continue" enter password and nothing...nothing except Icloud still shows exclamation mark on System Preferences no matter how many times restart. No issues with icloud on my Iphone11

I am having this problem on my phone and my MacBook pro but none of the other phones or computers on my account are having trouble logging in. My phone and laptop ask me to login but when I do, it just gets stuck in a loop of death. It appears I'm logged in, but I can't get the notifications to disappear. I've tried all the suggestions about restarting and signing in and out but this has been going on for a week and I still can't get it to work.

I recently had this issue and figured out that it was a problem with 2 part authorization. What I had to do was log into my Apple ID on another device, log out on my phone, and then log in again on my phone. What was happening is that since I was only logged in on my phone it was trying to send the 6 digit authorization code to the phone I was trying to log in to but then it would not ever bring up a screen to put the code into, causing my phone to be stuck into a continuous loop. By logging into another device, it pushed my 6 digit code to that device and then allowed me to enter it into my phone

Some people have fixed this by signing out of iCloud, restarting their device, and then logging back in. That hasn't worked for everyone.

You are welcome.

Have you tried signing out of iCloud, restarting the device, and then logging back in?

update apple id setting

Some people have solved this by going to System Preferences/Internet Accounts, selecting an iCloud account there, and signing in. You need to repeat this for each iCloud account.

ditto that....so frustrating..

for each icloud account? do you mean on each device w/icloud?

Only on devices that can't sign in.
