Create new iCloud email with my Apple ID
I have an Apple ID with two emails ... xxx@me.com and xxx@icloud.com The @me was the original and the xxx@iCloud was automatically created at some point over the last few years by Apple (I think).
HELP WITH:
I now need a new email address for my aging Mom that I manage. NOT AN ALIAS. On my Apple ID page, I've logged in, clicked "privacy" then "email" and then the "+" button. I found a name that is not used. I clicked "go" and received a message to look for an email to the newly created email address with a CODE.
No code has been received.
But how do I get the code without having the email set up?
I'm going in circles. Any direction is appreciated!
