I thought Trenitalia had stopped issuing IR/ER pass reservations through their website, how have you got to the point where it checks the number?

That doesn't look like the Trenitalia website. My guess is that it's out of date and lets you ask for a passholder fare but then has no way of issuing it.

I think this is from interrail.eu. When it was outdated it couldn't say the correct timetable of 2023. But I think this is only a timetable. Can you make a reservation with this. I don't think so. (I would be pleasently surprised when I'm wrong this time ;)

it's from https://app.italiarail.com/results. Looks like it is indeed possible to make a seat reservation. At the left you can choose between "no interrailpass, 1.class and 2.class".

But it doesn't work on a valid number of myself neither (although I haven't activate this number yet, maybe that's the problem or it is really an outdated site)

Italiarail.com IS a valid site for Interrail pass holders tickets on Trenitalia according to Interrail.

https://www.interrail.eu/en/plan-your-trip/tips-and-tricks/trains-europe/trains-country/trains-italy

I'd agree that the problem might be that the pass has not been activated.

go to community.eurail.com - far better informed and many more topics.
you CAN do the RES for FRecce etc In IT via oebb.com- for just 3€=IC or 10, maybe now 12 or 13, for FRecce.
Italiarail is a private person somewhere near Boston/Mass=USA who mostly sells expensive tours etc but seems also to promise s/he can do RES only-in practice this will for EURopeans always lead to disappointment
Also for new style mobile passes you must generate a passcover nr (that is printed on old style paper passes) to make some RES. All this wisdom from that community
