Q: Internet account is inactive and now it isn't and now it is...
I had this very same problem a while ago but completely forgot how to resolve it.
For various reasons I completed a new user profile for myself recently as was having problems with the finder and a lot of people suggested this could work, which it has. Although I thought my passwords were all in the cloud, they are not and despite me rescuing a back up from Time Machine of the relevant files it appears that all my frequented sites are requiring me to input my password for the first time as it isn't stored in Keychain.
So just now I came to Vimeo for the first time since update and Mac asked if I wanted to grant access across the board to other apps, or whatever the wording is, which I granted. I received a Mac notification that Vimeo needs turning on, which I enabled. And then I received another and another and another. My internet accounts currently displays Vimeo as inactive for about 3 seconds and then it disappears for similar and then reappears. Nothing can remove it and I have had to disable notifications for the day to disable the deluge of them.
I know there is a fix for this as I said at the start I have encountered this before. If anyone could salvage my notification sanity, that would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.
Mac mini, OS X El Capitan (10.11.4)
