A "Could Not Set Up iCloud" message means you have created Apple Accounts on certain platforms that need to be set up in iCloud too, but you have reached an annual per-device limit for doing this.
See the recommendations in the link under "What you should do" for using a different device to set up iCloud accounts ( If you see a Could Not Create Apple ID or Could Not Set Up iCloud message - Apple Support), using an account that is already set up, or by contacting Apple Support:
Click here --> Choose your country or region - Official Apple Support Select your country, then a product. If you don't see one that handles your issue then keep experimenting with selections until you reach one that gets you a chat session or a telephone call and get the representative to redirect you.
