After installing El Capitan on my iMac, the sign in hangs for Apple ID sign in on iCloud, App Store, and iTunes. Everything basically freezes at the sign in and the only option is to force quit. I cannot use iCloud, App Store and iTunes at this point. I attempted restarting the iMac and signing in again, but the same issue arrises.
iMac, OS X El Capitan (10.11)
Same problem here on my IMac
I had the same issue with the endless spinning gray cog. For me the solution was simply to click the continue arrow and then everything kept going from there.
Have you had any luck fixing the issue? I reinstalled El Capitan and the problem still persists.
This video should shed some more light to problem. Assuming the Serial number is blank.
Same here! Exactly the same on my iMac
Same here, still got no solution?
Are there any risks to doing this on my own?
Yes, I am able to sign-in my Apple ID for iCloud, Messages and FaceTime. Check to see if your serial number is missing and if so, this fix should help you.
I have the same problem, BUT I have a valid serial number.
Finder re-launch did not work.
Sign-out/sign-in iCloud did not work...stuck sipnning on the sign-back-in step.
Any other ideas?
