Accepting New iCloud Terms and Conditions

I am having trouble accepting the Apple New iCloud T&Cs on my iMac

I keep getting prompted to accept, and when I tick the 'I have read and agree to the iCloud T&Cs' and hit Agree, nothing seems to happen and it continues to prompt me to agree to the new T&Cs

Does anyone have a solution or a fix for this please?

iMac, macOS 10.12

Troubleshoot the Mac's Wi-Fi:

A few thoughts to try...

I. Clear the Temporary Internet Files:


II. Restart your Router:

  1. Power: off the router
  2. Wait: 30 seconds
  3. Power: It back on


III. Boot in Safe Mode:

In Safe ModeLogin Items do not run at login, certain preferences are set aside, and damaged system files are then reset. So, once booted in to Safe Mode, wait 30 seconds, and then boot up normally, attempting another update install. For instructions, go here: How to Use safe Mode on your Mac - Apple Support


IV. Try a New Admin User:

What happens when you create a new administrator user, and log into it? Do you still get this error? If not, then it is likely an error with the current user. If so, then it is likely an error with your Mac.

"Thanks, however none of this has worked. Despite clicking agree many times, it still isnt accepted... any other conflicts maybe, logins on other devices. is dual factor authentication necessary to do this? Thanks!"

Enabling of 2FA on your Devices:

Only if set up, would you be getting Two-Factor Authentication notifications for login prompts. So, if already enabled, then enable it on your Mac and other devices. Go Here: Set up two-factor authentication - Apple Support. If not enabled, then a login prompt would be unnecessary. Note that if you decide to enable it, you can never disabled it in the future (that's the rule, as of this post).
