Thank you Peter … but I do not use safari to log in.
I do so manually.
However I looked where you suggested in Safari.
But it tells me it has no password recorded.
So back to square one !!

My only suggestion is:
If you’re logging with Safari, go to Safari > Settings > Passwords
and
find the entry for your iCloud login. You can’t edit it, so delete it
using the — symbol at the botton of the passwords list. Close the
window and try logging in again. This time Keychain will ask again if
you want to save your login and password. Say OK and move on.
Hopefully
this will fix the problem. Please note this will not necessarily work
for other browsers because they won’t work the same way with
Keychain.

Hi folks.
When I try to log in to iCloud.
I am asked if I want to use my usual Apple ID "cha...@mac.com"
If I choose yes to this, my password will not work.
But if I choose “use a different Apple ID”
Then type in my usual “cha...@mac.com”
My password lets me in.
In the words of Professor Julius Sumner Miller.
“why is this so?”
Any words of wisdom regarding this will be thankfully received !!
