idsma.apple,com is refusing to connect when I try to access my icloud on my laptop

Hi Tascookie1950,

Welcome to Apple Support Communities!

We understand that you're unable to sign into iCloud because you're unable to connect, correct?

To start, check out the troubleshooting steps outlined here to help isolate this behavior further: If you can't connect or sign in to iCloud - Apple Support

We hope this helps.

Take care!
