Hi Kewinhow,


As creating an alias email address for iCloud is an Apple service, the troubleshooting steps in If you can't connect to the App Store, iTunes Store, or other Apple services might help. This resource has the following troubleshooting steps:


  1. Check the system status page
  2. Make sure that your device is connected to the internet
  3. Update your software
  4. Check the date and time

If it continues, you can also try to Add and manage email aliases for iCloud Mail on iCloud.com from a different device to further isolate the behavior.


Reach out to Apple Support to help investigate the behavior if the issue continues. You can use the following link to reach out: Contact Apple Support


Kind regards.
