Support for Drupal 7 is ending on 5 January 2025—it’s time to migrate to Drupal 10! Learn about the many benefits of Drupal 10 and find migration tools in our resource center.
If I first set a CCK Text field to the "Autocomplete for allowed values list" widget and specify an Allowed Values List - Save - and then change the widget to "Autocomplete for existing field data" the field still reads from the allowed value list and rejects unlisted values.
Solution: revert to "Autocomplete for allowed values list", remove Allowed Values, Save and change widget back.
Honestly, I like that it reads the allowed values list, if only it would still accept new values. That said, I've seen that functionality marked Won't Fix in other issues.

Please make sure you clear Drupal cache and browser cache, then see if this still happen.
