Me too. Last night around 7:30 PM Central, my iPhone prompted me several times to enter my AppleID password. After confirming this was really a request from iOS, I attempted to enter my password, and got the same response as described in the Apple Insider article.
The article said the issue was resolved within an hour-and-a-half. Just thought it was interesting information to pass along. - Brad - On Jun 3, 2020, at 15:15, 'Tim Kilburn' via MacVisionaries <macvisionaries@googlegroups.com> wrote: Hi Brad, Thanks for this Brad. For some reason, you ended up in my Junk. I’ve told it not to do that to you, so hopefully it doesn’t happen again. Anyway, on a side note to Kawal’s problem, I did actually personally experience the repercussions of this yesterday while trying to use Apple Pay on a purchase. It was a pain in the behind trying to figure out why it was telling me that the app didn’t exist. I’m not sure that Kawa’s difficulties are related to this at all, but it was certainly worth a try.

Problems began at around 7 p.m. Eastern, with impacted users taking to Apple's support forums to report the issue <https://discussions.apple.com/thread/251422359>. An update to Apple's system status webpage <https://www.apple.com/support/systemstatus/> reveals multiple outages including iCloud Account & Sign In, iCloud Mail and iCloud Web Apps. Users attempting to access Mail on their iOS or Mac devices are met with login authentication roadblocks, while iCloud.com <http://icloud.com/> is completely inaccessible for some. Certain apps that require Apple ID authentication are also affected, with in-app verification and app-specific passwords not functioning as intended. Some users are also reporting verification failures that trigger a pop-up reading, "The application you have selected does not exist." These problems appear to be tied to Apple ID's backend. It is unclear what caused the issue or how many users are affected by downtime. Apple has yet to comment on the difficulties and does not offer an estimate as to when the service will regain functionality. Update 8:11 p.m. EDT: Apple has resolved the hour-long issue.

I’ve tried all that and it won’t let me in as it keeps saying my password is wrong but that’s not the case. I hope you come up with something else. I will try again though as I can sign in using windows but I can’t get to rules or mail preferences. Thanks.
