Add gmail account to iphone 6

iphone 6 will not add my gmail account. Error message says password is incorrect. I have entered the password numerous times and it is not incorrect. password works on gmail account on desktop and ipad.

Are you using Google's 2-step verification? If so you need to use an application-specific password rather than the normal password: https://support.google.com/mail/answer/1173270?hl=en

Add Gmail account with custom domain to mail

Hi there,
I've added my standard Gmail account to the Mail app on my macbook air 2013 but i also have a school email from Google that I would like to add as well. This email uses a custom domain name so instead of [email protected] it would be [email protected] I've tried to add it in as a google account and as 'other' but i can't seem to make it work. Would be much appreciated if someone could walk me through the steps.
If you have any questions let me know!

I finally figured out my workaround (I'm using Mavericks).
Go into Mail and Add Account. Then do what wubie317 says, select "Add other account" DO NOT select Google / Gmail.
You will then be asked to enter the mail server addresses for Gmail. The info is below. Good luck!
Incoming Mail (IMAP) Server - Requires SSL
imap.gmail.com
Port: 993
Requires SSL:Yes
Incoming Mail (POP3) Server - Requires SSL:
pop.gmail.com
Use SSL: Yes
Port: 995
Outgoing Mail (SMTP) Server - Requires TLS or SSL
smtp.gmail.com
Port: 465 or 587
Requires SSL: Yes
Requires authentication: Yes
Use same settings as incoming mail server
Full Name or Display Name: [your name]

Unable to add GMail account... at all

Hello,
I had 2007 iMac for years that worked flawlessly, had it upgraded to Mavericks recently, no problems - had my GMail set up which was pulling down all messages without an issue.
Recently purchased new 2013 iMac with Mavericks. Used Migration Assistant to move everything from old iMac to new. Today I have discovered that my GMail account is not showing in Mail. If I go to System Preferences->Internet Accounts, GMail is there, and the Mail is checked off.... however, there is no mailbox in Mail. I have tried to delete GMail settings and re-add them again, with no avail.
If I open Mail, go to Preferences and click on "Accounts" tab, GMail is not listed there... my other email accounts are, but not GMail.
Any ideas? I am at the end of my wits. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Yes, I have installed the Apple Mail GMail Patch for Mavericks.

Thanks for the help.
I've done as you've suggested and so far it seems to be working. It's been about 30 hours now, I've drained the battery all they way down once, and when I get home this evening I'll try shutting down and switching to my backup battery just to double check that that works. Otherwise, it certainly seems as if it's a profile issue.
So, if that is the case, is it going to be possible to get my contact information that was stored on my old profile? I don't really use the calendar too much, so that's not a huge issue, but I would also like to get my paid apps back too if possible, or some sort of credit so I can buy them again.
Thanks again for the help,
Ryan
Edit: I just swapped out batteries and as expected, everything still works so does look like the profile.

Two inboxes for my Gmail account in iPhone mail

I recently upgraded my iPhone 4 to iOS 5 and found one problem. I set up my Gmail account on my iPhone and see two inboxes for it. They are identical, I delete one mail in one inbox, the deleted mail disappear in the other inbox too. It's not a big problem just kind of annoying thing.
Does anyone here has the same problem?

I had the same issue.
I eventually fixed it by setting up my email from scratch, after removing it from my IOS device, but this time set it up using "Other" rather then "Gmail". I used the details from http://mail.google.com/support/bin/answer.py?answer=78799 (if this link does not appear in English, try searching for IMAP settings in GMail's help). After set-up I had to match sent, drafts and deleted folders with the ones on the server. I also had to close e-mail and settings apps, start e-mail, sync all, then go to settings again in order for the IMAP folders to appear in the advanced settings for matching.
Note, using IMAP like this may require an update of your GMail settings on how to delete vs. archive mail when using IMAP, or you may end up never deleting e-mail unintentionally.

Setting up gmail account on iPhone.

Hi, I have a new iphone and I'm trying to set up my gmail existing account. I'm using the same gmail password that I'm using to access my gmail account on my Mac Book laptop, but my phone keeps rejecting the password. I don't have any other passwords so I'm not sure of what to do or whom to ask for advice. I'm hoping there is someone clever and helpful out there in Apple Land who can point me in the right direction. Many thanks, your answers are very much appreciated. Martina.

Copied from Google Support:
Invalid Password Prompt. If you see an error message that reads "Invalid Password", it's likely that you'll need to unlock your account by solving a short CAPTCHA. Go to https://www.google.com/accounts/UnlockCaptcha and, if asked to, fill in your email address, password, and the letters in the CAPTCHA box.

(Fortunately, despite living in Boston, I'm not one to hold a grudge against your nic. )
Have you gone to settings in Gmail (accessed via a web browser from your computer) - click Settings (upper right) > Forwarding and POP/IMAP and made sure IMAP is enabled?
