El Capitan - This Mac can't connect to iCloud because of a problem with "name@email.com" - is occurring frequently with my new installation of the OS

No Apple Token on the Macmini. Do have these choices however.

I have been getting "There is an error signing into the Apple ID Server" and its only on one LOGON USER. Other USERS on the same computer can access the Appstore, iCloud and Facetime, but not the one I have used since 2009 (and has been upgraded to El Capital 10.11.6.) No one seems to have an idea as to why or how to fix yet.

Thanks for advice, but for me I did the following: execute your first four steps, then log out and log in again and go to the icloud options from annoying message prompt, and finally enter my icloud password.

Now it's working fine.

Hi,

I'm still having this problem. My Mac is Mac Book Pro 13" Mid 2009, 2.53GHz ntel Core 2 Duo. Now I'm running Mac OS X El Capitan 10.11.6. No anti virus software like Kapersky.

I cannot login to iCloud from System Preferences and App Store, while clearly now I can login to iCLoud.com.

Messages I get:

"Verification Failed. There was an error connceting to Apple ID server."

"Your Apple ID or password was incorrect."

Already tried several suggestions that I got in this discussion, but still not working for me. Now I still cannot login do iCloud and any other related services on my MBP.

Any other suggestion? Apple, will you help? Thanks

NB: Can I just try to install Sierra on my MBP? I read it's not officially supported. Thanks

Try to log out from iCloud, restart your computer and log back in,

Tell me if the message appears

This did not work for me

I have this problem too, like whenever I log on or try to do something it just comes up its annoying and I want to get it sorted

I'm facing the same problem.

The iCloud just unaccept the login.

It also happened to me, the first times I used El Capitan, but now it's gone...

I don't know if it's a Software issue, if you installed El Capitan, over Yosemite, over Mavericks, etc.

Maybe a Clean Install of El Capitan would resolve the issue.

But if the problem is related to your iCloud Account, then it's another story.

Maybe time will make your iCloud account works.

Thx Fernandez,

I made a clean installation. I hope the prolem is related to iCloud account.

Same problem for me. Logout from iCloud, Restart, log back in. Same issue. Then made a clean install of El Capitan. Problem still existing...

I have the same problem but only on a MacBook Air, my other two Macs, (iMac and Mini) work with no problem. Why????, I signed in, Signed off, reinstalled El Capitan twice, and I don´t know what else to do.

I just did a test on my McBook PRO and it's working pretty well...

The problem occurs only on McBook Air.

Same,here.

I took my Mac into the Genius Bar at the local store and sat with a guy who finally figured it out. There was a problem with the keychain and passwords that he had to manage, and that fixed it.
