Restart your equipment and/or sign in out and back in again, and try again.


If you can't connect or sign in to iCloud or your account, Apple has a list of things you can try in the document If you can't connect or sign in to iCloud - Apple Support


Is the iCloud server working? --> https://www.apple.com/support/systemstatus


If you are using a VPN, try turning it off and see if you can then log in. E.g., AppStore - Apple Community
