Gmail will not work with Exchange

I just received my new iPhone 5s.
I know that Google shut off push syncronization to devices purchased after January 2013.
Now this is a google question but I have been having very hard time finding answer.  So maybe someone here has run into same issue.  And how they solved it.
I have read that you need to pay for Google Apps for Business to maintain push sync with new iphones.  My question is can I still use my gmail email address or do you have set up new one(using the domain name you set up Google apps with)?  My gmail.com address has all my email/folders etc and still want to be able to use it.
I imagine there will many people with this problem so a posting of this nature may be advantageous to others as well.
Thanks and I look forward to your reply.

<blockquote>
gmail has made some recent changes.
If you use more than your computer to access gmail eg: a phone, then you would need to set up gmail 2 step verification and then create 'an application specific password' to use in Thunderbird.
2 step verification:
* https://support.google.com/accounts/answer/180744?hl=en
Application specific password
* https://support.google.com/mail/answer/1173270?hl=en
If you only use your computer - do not use any other device, then you need to logon to gmail webmail and enable 'Allow Less secure apps'.
Allow Less secure apps:
* https://support.google.com/accounts/answer/6010255?hl=en
* http://googlesystem.blogspot.co.uk/2014/07/more-secure-gmail-authentication.html
Please note that this is gmail saying 'less secure apps', They are not saying is is insecure, but if using a phone as well as computer then set up 2 step verification for the phone and get application specific password for use in Thunderbird.
IF you have mail accounts using SSL or STARTTLS connections with a strong password then it is still ok,

  • Active sync on bionic will not work with exchange 2010

    We recently upgraded our corporate email system to exchange 2010. Prior to this, while on exchange 2007 I had no issues with active sync. On the day we upgraded active sync no longer worked for me I have others at work running older Droid OS. 2.2.2 and 2.2.3. They have no issues with the new exchange. I am on 2.3.4. I am able to do the setup and the setup will detect the new server and act as if the account is setup correctly. When it tries to sync I get a "connection error" message.

    Hi,
    From your description, I recommend you use the following URL to check if you can access EAC. I see it works for several people about this issue.

    Hope it helps.

  • Calendar will not sync with Exchange server or most Google Calendars

    Hi,
    I am writing about my wife's brand new Samsung Charge on Verizon. We managed to setup both her gmail account and her work exchange server account fine, except for the calendars:
    Her Google calendar shows up fine, but I am unable to even see any other Google calendars that she has access to (both her own secondary calendars as well as calendars that others have shared with her) in order to select them to be visible.
    Her exchange calendar says it is enabled (on the list of available calendars), but no events at all show up.
    This behavior is with the latest software updates on the Charge (2.2.1 firmware, I510.EE4 build) using its stock calendar software. I did notice that if I use Smooth Calendar, it does list all of her Google calendars under its listing of available calendars, but it still only shows data from her primary calendar. This is also true using the Touch Calendar app, which leads me to believe that there is some problem within the Google Calendar sync software that is not allowing her calendars to appear correctly.
    Thanks!

  • My work computer runs Outlook 2003, which I know will not work with the iCloud, so I hard sync.  But then the new info on my iPhone does not backup to iCloud.  Is there a solution?

    I have a Macbook and iPhone and like to back up to iCloud.  However, my work computer runs Outlook 2003, which I know will not work with the iCloud.  The company has no plans to update anytime soon.  Since the calendar and contact list on my office computer are my primay ones, I hard sync through iTunes.  The problem is that any data synced from Outlook 2003 to the iPhone from iTunes does NOT later backup to iCloud.  Is there a solution?

    I have the same problem with Outlook 2003 and Win XP which the multinational organisation I work for standardises on and will probably stay with forever!

    I had a repair done on my MacBook Pro and had to have a new hard drive installed. The Apple Auth Repair Shop then updated the OS from 10.6.8 to 10.7.5. Now my iPhoto v 9.2.3 will not open and it sounds like it will not work with this OS. Can you please advise?

    You may need many other updates to retain compatibility with Lion. I suggest you reinstall Snow Leopard. Unfortunately, you will need to erase the drive first. Be sure to backup your data if you haven't done so already.
    Clean Install of Snow Leopard
    Be sure to make a backup first because the following procedure will erase
    the drive and everything on it.
         1. Boot the computer using the Snow Leopard Installer Disc or the Disc 1 that came
             with your computer.  Insert the disc into the optical drive and restart the computer.
             After the chime press and hold down the  "C" key.  Release the key when you see
             a small spinning gear appear below the dark gray Apple logo.
         2. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue
             button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu.
             After DU loads select the hard drive entry from the left side list (mfgr.'s ID and drive
             size.)  Click on the Partition tab in the DU main window.  Set the number of
             partitions to one (1) from the Partitions drop down menu, click on Options button
             and select GUID, click on OK, then set the format type to MacOS Extended
             (Journaled, if supported), then click on the Apply button.
         3. When the formatting has completed quit DU and return to the installer.  Proceed
             with the OS X installation and follow the directions included with the installer.
         4. When the installation has completed your computer will Restart into the Setup
             Assistant. After you finish Setup Assistant will complete the installation after which
             you will be running a fresh install of OS X.  You can now begin the update process
             by opening Software Update and installing all recommended updates to bring your
             installation current.
    Download and install Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1.

  • I bought the Keynote app for my MacBook, but when I open the application and try to install it, I get an error message saying that the application will not work with my MacBook. What gives? And, can I please request a refund? ($19.99 = a week's groceries)

    I bought the Keynote app for my MacBook, but when I open the application and try to install it, I get an error message saying that the application will not work with my MacBook. What gives? And, can I please request a refund? ($19.99 = a week's groceries).
    Thank you for your help! - I did try looking for all available specs about Keynote on the Apple iTunes website, and found nothing that could help me. HELP!

    1
    Close all iWork applications
    2
    Uninstall Keynote; this must be done with an application remover tool to delete the installation properly. Appcleaner is known to work correctly for this purpose, it is free and can be downloaded from here: Appcleaner Download
    3
    empty the trash
    4
    shutdown the Mac and restart. After the start up chime, hold down the shift key until the apple logo appears
    let the Mac complete the start up procedure completely, it will take longer than usual as the hard drive is being repaired
    5
    Reinstall Keynote by logging into the Mac App Store using download / install

    Hi,
    You can download the latest official Firefox here: https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/new/
    You may also have to install [http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/jre7u9-downloads-1859586.html Java] (choose either Windows x86 Offline or Windows x86 Online), and [http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/ Flash] (choose the Firefox version and also deselect extras).
    For the Firefox metro version, please see [https://wiki.mozilla.org/Firefox/Windows_8_Integration#Elm_Nightly_Builds this]. You can install and use it along with the other version.

  • Firefox 4 will not work with my OSX 10.4.11. I cannot now get back the old version. what can I do?

    Just downloaded Firefox 4. It replaced the older version on my mac but will not work with my current version of OSX.
    I cannot find where I can download the older version so now I do not have Firefox. Can you help>

    Perfect! This works!!! Mozilla... remember many Mac users keep machines a looooong time! They are like an old Mercedes. They never die.

  • HDX 9010nr, Radeon 2600 will not work with WIndows 7

    Apparently, HP is not going to support the HDX 9010nr for Windows 7.  That's the bad news, the good news is that it "mostly" works. 
    The only big issue is that the display driver stops every few minutes and then restarts.  So you sit there for thirty seconds while the machine recovers.  But, it doesn’t support a second screen; and worse, every 10th time the video driver crashes; it locks up the whole machine. 
     ATI has a version of the Radeon 2600 software that worked with the Release Candidate (RC) of Windows 7, but it will not work with the shipped version of Windows 7.  ATI recommends that you get a version from your hardware vendor.  Which brings me back to the first sentence.  HP isn't supporting the 9010nr. 
    The question is do any of the "supported" HP laptops have the ATI Radeon 2600?  If so, might that work on the HDX 9010nr? 
    This question was solved.

    Updating the BIOS solved this problem.

  • Photoshop CS2 will not work with RAW images in the Minolta DimAge A2.  It use to work fine

    I have used Photoshop CS 2 with my DimAge A2 for over 5 years in the RAW format.  Now it will not work with RAW with my camera.  I am using Vista 64.Any answers ?  Thanks

    It would seem to me that you have probably had to reinstall Photoshop CS 2.  If that is the case, then you should download and install Camera Raw 3.7.  The version that was on your install disk was updated several times.  And one of those updates probably included support for your camera.  Install ACR 3.7 and see if that helps.

    2nd generation ipod touch is pretty much no good anymore?  It is not able to upgrade to iOS5.1 and so will not work with many Apps in the iTunes store?  Is there a way to find out if the App will work before you download?

    Look to the app developer to provide that information when browsing the iTunes Store.
    The iPod Touch still works, so what's your problem with it? It still works with older apps, it still does what it's intended to do.
    If you aren't happy then sell it and buy a new one.

  • I just downloaded Firefox 5 and it said that my Yahoo toolbar will not work with it. Is this true? If so I will not use this new version and will switch to another browser if Firefox stops supporting the Yahoo toolbar. Thank you.

    I just downloaded Firefox 5 and it said that my Yahoo toolbar will not work with it. Is this true? If so I will not use this new version and will switch to another browser if Firefox stops supporting the Yahoo toolbar. Thank you.

    Add-ons contain a range of compatible Firefox versions, and Firefox honors the listed range by disabling the add-on if you are trying to run it on an unlisted version.
    I'm sure Yahoo! will update its toolbar eventually, but not every add-on maker supports beta versions of software.

  • My big fish and Norton tool bar will not work with fire fox 4

    My Big Fish Tool Bar and my Norton Tool Bar will not work with firefox4. However they work fine on internet explorer

    Symantec need to update their Firefox add-ons so that they are compatible with Firefox 4. They have indicated that for Norton 360 they plan to release an update to Norton 360 to support Firefox 4 in early May - http://us.norton.com/support/kb/web_view.jsp?wv_type=public_web&docurl=20100720113635EN&ln=en_US
    I do not know about the time scale for updates for other Norton products. Pending the update by Symantec, if you want to use the Norton add-ons you will need to downgrade to Firefox 3.6.
    To downgrade to Firefox 3.6 first uninstall Firefox 4, but do not select the option to "Remove my Firefox personal data". If you select that option it will delete your bookmarks, passwords and other user data.
    You can then install the latest version of Firefox 3.6 available from http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html - it will automatically use your current bookmarks, passwords etc.
    To avoid possible problems with downgrading, I recommend going to your profile folder and deleting the following files if they exist - extensions.cache, extensions.rdf, extensions.ini, extensions.sqlite and localstore.rdf. Deleting these files will force Firefox to rebuild the list of installed extensions, checking their compatibility, and reset toolbar customizations.
