Gmail Account Errors

I have not been able to set up my Gmail account.
After entering the required information, "Name", "Address" and "Password" I receive the following message, "Cannot connect using SSL. Do you want to try setting up an account with out SSL?" I click yes and after several minutes I receive this message, "Gmail account verification failed. The POP server, 'pop.gmail.com' is not responding. Check your network connection and that you entered the correct information in the incoming mail server field." I am not filling in any information in the 'incoming mail server field.' I am simply following the instructions provided by the phone.
I have tried it several times and get the same results each time. Any suggestions?

If I had read a little further in this topic I would have seen the answer. I needed to turn on POP in my Gmail account. I did this and the setup was extremely easy.

SMTP settings for Gmail account -- Error 5.5.1 on Outlook for Mac

Outlook 2011

Cannot send mail. The SMTP server does not recognize any of the authentication methods supported by Outlook. Try changing the SMTP authentication options in Account settings.
Error Code: -17092
I am setting up a Gmail account on Outlook. I can receive mail but not send it.
I have confirmed the right settings with Gmail and made sure to enable IMAP.
-- Outgoing Server -- smtp.gmail.com : 465 (or 587, both don't work)
-- Override default port (enabled)
-- Use SSL to connect (enabled)
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

HT201320 Email app using gmail account error

Suddenlly, email app shows error "cannot get email username or password incorrect" (gmail account). Considering I am using this ipad since last year and this email for many years, what could be the resolvation? I don't have the 2 step verifying activated for the gmail account...

Yes, i can sign in on safari, the email works on the gmail app (which is inferior to the apple email app).. Even on blackberry it works as usual! I can't even set the account again because of that message...
i Know i saw something "weird" in the account settings in the ipad: the settings for mail account from the outgoing server smtp (which are on) were cemented (grey and not accessible) and for Authentication it was set (and also blocked like all that part) Gmail client token...

HT1430 I can no longer access my gmail account on any of my apple products. I get an error message saying my user name or email address is incorrect.

I am unable to access my gmail account on my iPhone or my iPad three. I get an error message saying that either my user name or password is incorrect. I have deleted my account and restarted my iPad or iPhone but it still will not work. Can anybody help me please?

You can not merge accounts.
Apps are tied to the Apple ID used to download them, you can not transfer them.

Port 993 error message, now can't set up MacMail for GMail account.

I've been using MacMail for years without a problem. Recently a little exclamation point came up with an error message indicating that the server couldn't connect with the 993 port for my Gmail account. After trying to update my software, restart the program, etc etc I deleted the account, thinking I'd just recreate a MacMail connection to my Gmail account. Not I'm receiving an error message that the server imap.gmail.com is not responding, and I can not set up a MacMail account linked to my Gmail.
I've seen lots of people with this problem, but no sufficient answers to correct it. I am not using a portable device, I am using my iMac to try to make this happen.
Please help! Any incite is much appreciated.
Thank you.
Emily

Hi Emily,
For port 993, is SSL checked & authentication = Password?
Could this be it?
Gmail send but not receive...
Here are two steps that have come in handy in related situations
1) login to gmail on your computer or device via a web browser
2) once logged in successfully, go to this URL to unlock:

I think you can try to perform the complete uninstall process. This procedure differs from the usual uninstall as this will remove/delete almost all traces of Skype in your computer. This will allow you to re-install a fresh copy of Skype in your computer, and possibly fix the problems you are currently experiencing. Please visit the link below on how to backup your files and how to do the complete uninstall process.

I recently used icloud on my phone to back up my phone. After I did that my gmail stopped working, so I deleted it and when I go to add my gmail account I get an error message. It says cannot get mail, user name or passwork incorrect? What do I do?

Hi,
Just wanted to say I found out the answer. I should have looked first to see if anyone else was having the same problem but I didn't.

Gmail account verification failed error "pop.gmail.gom" is incorrect

I'm getting this errror message "gmail account verification failed error "pop.gmail.gom" is incorrect"
I checked password, username and pop setting at the gmail in my computer and e verything is fine. I can log on with my iphone via safari to gmail. I can't use the built - in mail system. I updated to 1.1.1 to see if this would help solve but it didn't.

holyreviver,
If your password contains a mix of upper and lower case characters, I would recomend keeping an eye on the shift key as you enter your password. Sometimes it may seem to stick.
You will also get that error message if POP3 is not enabled with GMail online, or another machine is checking that account. Sometimes turning POP3 off, and then back on will help resolve it as well.
Hope this helps,
Nathan C.

Cannot set up gmail account - keep getting SSL error

I cannot seem to set up my gmail account on my iPhone. Actually I deleted the account because it would not update at home and when trying to re-add the account now I cannot. I keep getting the SSL error which asks if I want to continue without SSL, if I push yes it does not work either, just says gmail verification has failed either way. I have read up on others responses and none have worked.
I have tried following the link to unlock my gmail, setting up my gmail account through the "other" option instead of gmail, turning off my firewall (I have a locked wireless connection at home) and even changing my gmail password. Nothing has worked.... PLEASE help!

Okay so I was able to set up my gmail account at work, BUT I do not get automatic notifications anymore when I have a new email like I did before.... Any ideas why and how to fix this?

I get "bad request error 400" when I try to log on to my gmail account. Safari allows me to access the account. What's the problem?

I cannot open my gmail account on Firefox as of yesterday. I get, instead, Bad request Error 400. This is a recent devlopment and rather annoying. Safari works fine.

You're welcome

Unable to create new email from Gmail account in Mail

I just installed gmail to retrieve messages within Mail: I can receive gmail messages and reply to gmail from Mail. However, I cannot create and send a new message in Mail using my gmail account; when I do I get the following error message:
Enter Password for Account
smtp.gmail.com:xxxx[account name]
The SMTP server "smtp.gmail.com" rejected the password for user "xxx[account name]"
Please re-enter your password, or cancel.
No matter how many times I add it correctly and click OK, the same message returns.

Google provides instructions for setting up a Gmail
account in Mail here:
http://mail.google.com/support/bin/answer.py?answer=13
275
Make sure you’ve set up the account as described
there.
That is what I used to set up my gmail account in Apples Mail App before your post. Those instructions say that when you click on the Advanced Tab that the port will switch to 995 - which it did for me. I do have a minor problem though. Is there any way to prevent emails sent from Mail via gmail from showing up in gmails web page? I don't really like web mail whatsoever!
