I was unable to log in to the Apple App Store while trying to update Xcode on my MBP.
Here's an Apple discussion thread regarding possible solutions.
What ended up working was signing out, clicking "Store -> Create New Account", accepting the Terms and Conditions, then canceling out of new account creation and signing in again.
While deleting the network interface plist, cookies, etc. was educational, it didn't work.
Accepting T&C while not creating a new account so I could use my old one... "It just works"?

Wow, I've just spent most of the evening reading all kinds of posts. Wating all my time and getting VERY frustrated. THANK YOU SO MUCH ! Your solution worked for me !
Thank you !!!
I've been struggling all day long trying to sort this out.
Oddly enough, your advice solved it !
Thank you very much!
OMG THANK YOU!
This helped me, there was an account already signed into the App Store when I tried to sign in with my account. Instead of it saying "you have to log out first" or something, it just prompted me to log in and then gave me the Unknown Error. So this is a variation on what the OP describes.
Thanks!!!!!
