Anytime I try to sign into my iCloud account on my Mac it reads unknown error?

So something happened and my iCloud got disconnected. My computer is wanting me to sign back in, but anytime I type in my password it reads unknown error. I've change my password to see if it would let me login, but that didn't seem to be the problem.

If you are using macOS Catalina, some people have solved this by going to System Preferences/Internet Accounts, selecting an iCloud account there, and signing in. You need to repeat this for each iCloud account.
