What to do after you change your Apple ID email address or password - https://support.apple.com/HT204071

I went to that link, but when I try to log out of my iCloud on my computer, it wants my password. I enter it and then it says ACTION CANNOT BE COMPLETED. TRY AGAIN. The very same password gets me into my iCloud account online, so I know it's correct. Also, note that it does not reject the password - I don't get a wrong password message. I'm running Sierra 10.12.3 on an Intel Mac.

That did it!! I'm not sure which the culprit is but I deleted everything with com.maintain.nnn, MailButler, Mail Acton and Mailtags. Interestingly, I was suspicious of Mail Butler and uninstalled it using CleanMyMac, but Easyfind (which I love,) found more bits.

I am going to reinstall Mailtags and Mail ActOn as I use them a lot, so we'll see if problems arise again. I was also, btw, unable to quit Mail, and now can.

Thanks very much, Eric. I appreciate the time you took.

Michael

Etrecheck, did that but same thing.

What does an Apple ID have to do with Gmail?
