Whenever I try to sign in to iCloud with my Macbook Pro I get the Preference Error, 'Could not load iCloud' Has anyone else had this or is anyone els getting it? I'm wondering if its a sign that my hard drive may be on its way out.
Got a tip for us?

It's not your hdd. Do a Google for the message that you're getting.
I & several colleagues are getting it … I've not had time to get into resolving it. It's a mail palarver I believe …

Yes I've tryed gppgling it to no avail, I kn ow now its not a hardware but a software issue because I did an internet restore to Mavericks and it worked ok but when I upgraded to El Capitan , with a clean install I tried opening system preferences and I couldn't click , iCloud , because the preference error had rebut\rned . It must be something to do with the update.
Try turning iff icloud. Trash all the icloud prefs. Restart. Then turnon iCloud again.
I tried that but every time I try to turn it off it won't and then the preference error comes up again and Its back to the way it is .
I can't because on my iPhone and iPad i tap settings goto iCloud but whenever I tap iCloud from there it crashes back to the home screen without warning and there's no error message.
