How are you opening up iCloud? iCloud is a component of many features Apple offers and except when you sign in on the web I don't know where you can sign into it specifically except where you are signing into iCloud as part of signing into an Apple Account. You do not mention what equipment you are using or where you are signing in. What exact message are you seeing?


Read this support article to learn how to sign in with an Apple Account on various kinds of devices --> Sign in to your Apple Account on the web or in your device settings - Apple Support


For an Apple Mobile device:

1. Open the Settings app.

2. Tap Sign in to your [device].

3. Enter your Apple ID email address, or use one of your additional email addresses. Also your password,

4. If prompted, enter the six-digit verification code sent to your trusted device or phone number and complete sign in.



On which device are you seeing this behaviour?

Did you try to log out of your Apple Account, restart the device and log in again?


Are you using a VPN, which might block the contact to Apple servers?
