I try to add another email (gmail) to my account. Email is valid and in use, but I got a message it is wrong and unavailable. I also tried to add some random email instead to see does this work. It did. So the problem is my email that I have used for years, but why?
Bregds, Mika
If your e-mail address was associated with an ID in any way, for example as a Reachable at or Rescue e-mail address, then it can't be reused with another Apple ID for approximately one year. I have also seen posts that stated Apple told them there was a 30 day waiting period before the address could be used again. You will need to get another e-mail address to use as your Apple ID or you can try waiting 30 days to see if that works.
