Hello Christine, I'm curious, were you able to resolve this issue?
After re-reading your post, it occurred to me that what you may be referring to are iCloud email aliases, of which you are allowed up to 5. To create email aliases you must, in your preferred web browser, go to: http://appleid.apple.com Once signed in, you will locate an area that will allow you to create up to 5 email aliases, any of which you can change/use at any time. Good Luck and let us know how it goes. Mark From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Christine Grassman Sent: Thursday, October 05, 2017 8:09 AM To: [email protected] Subject: Clarification re Can't Change iCloud Email Address My husband and I both have gmail addresses, which we use for our Apple ID’s. I have an iCloud email address, which I set up several years ago. When I did so, I was able to choose “cfgrassman” rather than “cgrassman1009” which is what I use for gmail. My husband wants to have an iCloud email, and attempted to set it up. When his user information comes up, his first and last name are listed, with an edit box. Below this is offered an icloud.com address, using the same user name as the one he uses for gmail. As I did, he wants to use a different name before the @ sign. However, the offered icloud address which mirrors his gmail address does not appear to be editable. He is *not* changing his Apple ID; he still intends to use the gmail address for that. However, he does want to set up an iCloud address that is different from his gmail user name, as I did. Despite searching around, we cannot figure out how to do this.
