I keep getting this message:
"This Mac can't connect to iCloud because of a problem with abresq@aol.com. Open iCloud preferences to fix this problem." That "iCloud preferences" doesn't exactly lead you by the hand but I got into AOL there and re-entered my password -- there didn't seem to be anything else available to do. But I'm still getting that message. Any help much appreciated -- thanks.
 
I have the screenshot jpg but I'm not sure how to get it into a post in this forum since there's no "attachment" facility. Dragging it and pasting it both failed. Any hints, or give me your email and I'll email it.

I am guessing that abresq@aol.com is your AppleID? Perhaps it just needs a password. Try going to your iCloud prefs and re-entering your password.
 
I tried that a number of times. Never seemed to make a dent.
