10.9.2 gmail sync issue

Like many, I have been waiting for 10.9.2 to cure issues with the Mavericks Mail app when using gmail. Unfortunately, the sync issue has not changed.
Sometimes the Mail app will sync with gmail, but many times I have to close and restart the Mail app to get new email.
Why is it taking so long AFTER the OS release to discover and correct a fundamental bug in a fundamental app within an OS?

To rebuild you go to the Mail pulldown menu.   Mail ->  Mailbox -> Rebuild.   I believe the rebuild will only apply to the account associated with the inbox highlighted at the time the rebuild is done.
You can also try removing an account and recreating it, but I would try rebuilding first and see if that does it. 
It looks like Don P. above also had his problems fixed by upgrading to 10.9.3, so I am hoping this does it for you!
I should note that Mac mail has frequently been slow finding new mail on my work Exchange server.   This preceeded 10.9.3 for as long as we had the Exchange server at work and continues with it.   The problem I had that was fixed by 10.9.3 was that every day or two Apple Mail would completely stop syncing to a Gmail account (I have two and the stoppages seemed uncorrelated).  In order to get the syncing to restart, I had to fully quit and restart mail.
Good luck!

  • Google Mail (Gmail) Sync Issues

    After I put my computer into sleep, then wake it up, Mail stops syncing or retrieving new mail from Gmail server. Am I the only one who's having this problem? I tried deleting the account and logging in again, but it didn't change anything.
    Any solutions? Thank you!

    FWIW, this problem happens for me in Mavericks (10.9.5) too. It seemed like there was a point release or two where the problem seemed fixed, but it's definitely back in 10.9.5. I had hoped that Yosemite would address the issue. (I'm waiting a while until upgrading my main Mac.) The easiest solution that works for me is to quit Mail and open it again.
    Out of curiosity, do you switch between Ethernet and Wi-Fi networks often while Mail is open? One of my unfounded speculations is that the frequent network switching I do "breaks" Mail's IMAP updates with Gmail. It'd be great if someone with more time than me logged the IMAP transactions between Mail and Gmail to see if this issue is a Mail or Gmail issue because iCloud IMAP (Oracle) seems to update fine…
    Thanks!

  • Gmail Sync Issue

    I have successfully synced my Google Calendar with both iCal and iOS Calendar. I have also synced my IMAP Gmail between my computers and iPad. The problem I have is that when I use Apple's Mail application to send a message, I can't see that message when I access Gmail via Web access. Am I doing something wrong, or is this just not possible?
    The problem arises because my college only allows on-campus access to our Gmail accounts via Web Access in order to minimize security issues. So, I can't use Apple Mail from my campus iMac to access my Gmail accounts. But when I go home, I would like to use Apple Mail to work with both my personal and work email accounts.
    Thanks for the help!

    I'm having the same problem. It also won't sync when I delete emails in Gmail or on my iPhone - they still show up in Mail.
    Has anyone found a solution?

  • Gmail Sync Issue: Incoming Emails

    I'm experiencing an issue with my gmail account syncing incoming emails in the email app.  The yellow 'alert' triangle of death has appeared since 2/24/10, when I last received emails on 2/24/10.  However, outgoing emails appear to successfully send.  I've twice now deleted my gmail account and re-added it in hopes of fixing this problem.    Anyone else experiencing this?  Any suggested fixes please?
    Thanks and Happy Friday.  Hopefully the 1.4.0 Update will arrive soon and magically cure my gmail ailment.

  • OS Update 10.9.1 did NOT fix Gmail syncing issues with Apple Mail App?

    Is it just me? Or is anyone else having the same issues of gmail still NOT syncing accross iPad and Mac Mail app in spite of the "update/fix" to OS? My mail on my three Macs and one iPad are still never synced corrctly. When I try "syncronize all mail boxes" in the mail app of the mac, it does not work.
    I look directly at my Gmail online thorugh Safari on the Google site and see I have 2 emails in my IN box. Yet on one Mac it has 15 (13 of ehcih were deleted several hours ago). On another Mac it has 18. On the iPad it has it right as that is where I begain looking at end editing email today.
    Any ideas?
    Thanks!

    I used to have my gmail account sync on my playbook. I didn't use my playbook for about a month and now I am not aboe to sync the account. All my emails, contacts, etc arecompletely gone.

    google used to allow active sync and will kill the connection if you dont use it.
    you might have to set up with IMAP now instead

  • Gmail Syncing Issues

    Outlook cannot find the server. Verify the server information is entered correctly in the Account Settings, and that your DNS settings in the Network pane of System Preferences are correct.
    I keep on getting this error. I have checkedmy settings and cannot get this removed?
    Is this perhaps due to internet connectivity issues?
    Thanks

  • Gmail Synchronization Issues

    I am having a problem with mail merges via ACT! 2014 and Outlook shutting down periodically. I am also having an issue of gmail incoming emails properly synchronizing with Outlook daily. Some emails sync while others do not.
    Please help!

    Hi,
    You may go to Event Viewer to find the detailed information why Outlook crashed. If you are using some 3rd-party add-ins, the add-in itself may be the culprit.
    As for the Gmail Sync issue, please disable the firewall and anti-virus program, then go to View tab -> View Settings, check if you have any Filter settings that may prevent the emails from showing up.
    please also try Scanpst.exe to fix the data file:

  • Apple GMail sync - Fail

    Getting an issue with Gmail sync on the Apple Mail client where it refuses to accept the settings. Claims the password isn't correct.
    The same password I can actually log in to Gmail in on the web version AND the same email that I can use to set up GMail on another web client. Also note that everything  else is synching OK
    It's possible that the issue could be with Google but to be honest the way Apple act these days about resolving technical faults I suspect it's them.
    Since I'm using their account adding process; since I'm able to log in to the account by other means using the same information and I've tested it on other clients; please don't bother with any patronising responses. Only reply if you actually know the fix. Or better yet if you work for Apple and have reported yet another bug.
    Any work arounds for this latest example of poor Apple product?

    There is a forum for Mail in the Snow Leopard forums. I'd recommend re-posting there if you don't get an answer here. The link to that forum is:

  • Contact Merge/Sync Issue in Droid X

    I think potential users of the Droid X who intend to sync with Microsoft Exchange should realize that the contact manager on the phone causes some real issues with how contacts are displayed. I have 2,300 contacts in Outlook, and when I got the Droid X this week and set it up to synch with our corporate exchange server, I ended up with only 1,700 contacts on my device. After spending hours troubleshooting it (thinking it was a sync issue), it was escalated to Motorola Level 3 support, They quickly indicated it is a design issue where the contact data manager on the device tries to link/combine together contacts from your various sources (Gmail, Verizon, Yahoo, corporate, etc.) into a condensed set of contacts. Unfortunately, it apparently does this by looking for common pieces of information (phone numbers, addresses, etc.), such that if you have multiple contacts at the same company or if you have similar contacts (say for both a business and someone working for that business), they get combined together in inappropriate ways. You can apparently go into each contact on the device and break the link, but that is impractical as a workaround.
    It seems to me that however a user sets up contacts in Outlook (or elsewhere), that layout should be respected by the device and not changed.
    The Motorola service rep indicated that he had previously relayed a request to their engineers that users be able to select whether or not they want contacts automatically linked, but this has not been implemented.
    The Droid X also doesn't let you sort contacts other than by first name/last name, another bad feature that seems silly. The Motorola rep also indicated that this design request had not been implemented.
    I've been a Blackberry user for years, and while I love the large screen on the Droid X and the other applications, these contact issues are significant and don't make it workable for me in a corporate environment, so I've returned it to Verizon. (This also happened to be device #2 in a week; Verizon took back device #1 went back because it could receive but would not transmit emails). I am told by my company's IT group that the iPhone does not handle contacts in this same way.
    On a happier note, both the VZW and Motorola customer support centers provided timely and helpful support.

  • Syncing issues with my Blackberry Torch 9800

    I have been trying to sync my Blackberry Torch 9800 since August 2011.  I have updated the latest software and followed every instruction given to me. Nothing seems to wortk.  My Mac (running OS10 Leopard) recognizes the Torch but won't sync.  It gives me an error message and asks me to resync.  I'm close to throwing the Blackberry out the window and purchasing an iPhone.  I'm at wit's end.  Any suggestions?

    I had sync issue on Enterprise email and my gmail account today from 6am to 8pm.  Single point of failure sucks.  I would go Iphone but my company uses Blackberry.

  • Gmail sync and notification error z3 compact lollipop upgrade

    No Gmail sync after lollipop upgrade, no notification sound. Horrible. Could anyone help me please?

    There is sync with Gmail and mine works fine so you either have not done something or haven't enabled a settings or you have a 3rd party app causing a conflict - Your last option if the App preferences reset doesn't work is to perform a system repair
    Performing a system repair using PC Companion will often fix issues - This will factory reset your phone and erase all data so best to backup before you begin
    Switch off your phone and unplug from Pc (Hold volume up and power for around 10 seconds)
    Start PC Companion and select Support zone then Update my phone/tablet then in Blue Repair my phone/tablet and follow the on screen instructions - When prompted connect your phone still switched off holding volume down or back button - This should start the repair or reformat process
    If you are using Windows 8/8.1 or a 64bit operating system then adjust the settings for PC Companion and run in compatibility mode and chose Windows 7 or XP

  • Exchange sync issues

    I'm having an issue where my Exchange email seems to stop working on a random basis.  I have to delete my account and then re-add it in order to start receiving emails again.  My gmail and google apps accounts sync just fine.  I've checked with our IT department, and other users aren't having the same issue.  My phone worked fine up until about a week ago.  I deleted the certificate and re-installed it, just to be certain.  Any thoughts?  Any known issues I should be aware of?  Anyone else experiencing this problem?
    Thanks

    I'll have to check with the IT department.  Unless they have upgraded recently, we are using exchange 2003 SP1.  I'll also ask about the test account.
    As far as I know, and as far as IT knows, I'm the only one using WebOS.  The IT department only "supports" Blackberries & iPhones.  I prefer the Pre, and as long as the exchange sync works, I'll stick with it.
    I have had the issue happen again several more times.  It isn't an "8 am" exactly issue.  The other morning I received emails up until 9 or so, then stopped.
    I have tried just re-entering my password and that didn't seem to work.  Maybe I need to give it a little more time.  Maybe I should change my network password and see if that makes any difference.  Perhpas that is where the sync "disconnects".  Since exchange email works for iPhone users, I have to think it is a WebOS specific issue, versus an exchange issue, or perhaps I should say a WebOS - Exchange connection issue, as opposed to an "exchange" issue.
    I only asked about the logs because I was involved with a previous exchange sync issue and worked with the support techs several times, and they have asked for several logs.
