    I had this problem too but solved it by instead of clicking 'add account' i clicked outlook then put in my hotmail address and password and it worked, i can now access them again on my mail app. I also use my outlook app for my work emails so didn't want to go down that route.

    Let me know if it worked!

    I had the same problem and your solution worked for me ! Thank you very much :))

    Hi,

    I have the same issue, I just upgraded from iPhone 11 to 16 and everything is fine. I write a lot of poetry on my phone in the notes app which not since I have upgraded and can’t add my email address the usual way it has now deleted all my notes however if I log in on laptop my notes are still there on my email but not on the phone.

    I think notes were linked to my Hotmail account which now when adding it via outlook in the setting means I can’t get my notes restored.

    Not sure if that made any sense but if it did can someone help resolve this?

    Thanks
