Upon trying to login to Apple iCloud throughout the day today on multiple devices, I receive the error "Connection Error - iCloud encountered an error while trying to connect to the server." I've tried going off of WiFi and connecting through cellular signal, but the same error. Has anyone experienced this and how might it be resolved?
MacBook, macOS 13.1
I’d check to make sure your device is compatible with iCloud. This article has some relevant information on issues signing into iCloud, along with information on what devices are compatible with it: If you can't connect or sign in to iCloud - Apple Support
If you’re connecting to a VPN, that might be an issue too. That happened to me with my work VPN one time. If you’re still having issues, I’d personally contact Apple directly at that point.
I rebooted the router providing WiFi and was then able to login to the cloud without issue. It seems odd that no other site accessibility was affected, only iCloud, but glad it is now resolved.

Give it a Few:
There is apparently an issue connecting to the iCloud server. So, try later on.
