How to log into gmail with default Mail app

So my gmail has a 2 step verification option to have it more secure, but the default mail app on my iphone 5S does not give me the option to give a second verification so I can't log in.
They continuously say my password is incorrect because of this...
Any way to fix this please?
Ludwig Dory

After more googline I actually found the solution, I'll post it here in case anyone else has the same problem I had:
You have to go to the double verification setup in browser https://accounts.google.com/b/0/SmsAuthSettings and generate an app specific password, this is the only way it'll work.

Can't log into Gmail using Mac Mail client

Wow, after upgrading Lion for iCloud and upgrading my iPad2 for IOS5, I can no longer get Gmail on either one using Mac Mail as the client. I get a little triangular caution symbol next to the Gmail account in Mac Mail. I tried deleting the account and recreating it, and when the account setup wizard tries to connect, I get the following:
"Logging in to the Google IMAP server "imap.gmail.com" failed. Make sure the username and password you entered are correct then click Continue. If the information isn't correct, you cannot receive messages"
This doesn't make any sense, since the account has always worked in the past. Simultaneous to that, I have started having the same problem on the iPad, which never had trouble logging in before either.
Anybody else encountering this?

Hello,
Many site issues can be caused by corrupt cookies or cache. In order to try to fix these problems, the first step is to clear both cookies and the cache.
Note: ''This will temporarily log you out of all sites you're logged in to.''
To clear cache and cookies do the following:
#Go to Firefox > History > Clear recent history or (if no Firefox button is shown) go to Tools > Clear recent history.
#Under "Time range to clear", select "Everything".
#Now, click the arrow next to Details to toggle the Details list active.
#From the details list, check ''Cache'' and ''Cookies'' and uncheck everything else.
#Now click the ''Clear now'' button.
Further information can be found in the [[Clear your cache, history and other personal information in Firefox]] article.

How to unscrew my mistake with the Mail.app.

I thought I was making corrections in the folders in Home->Library->Mail->POP xxxx accounts.
Now my Mail application is acting real funny.
Where do I go to get the correct structure of all Mail folders?
The Mail system is so screwed up I can't Sync->Replace Computer. I can't even do this to wipe Mail clean and go back to the old settings.
Really need some help here.

Hi John,
To reset Mail completely, simply delete (or move) everything in ~/Users/YOURUSERNAME/Library/Mail/
You might try rebuilding your mailboxes. To do so, launch Mail, choose "MailBox" and then "Rebuild." You can also force Mail to do this manually by going to the same location above and deleting the "Envelope Index" files.
Be careful: if your email account is set to use POP3, it's likely that the only place your email exists is on your Mac. You should, if possible, switch to using IMAP access for email. That will ensure that your email always stays on the server, which will prevent loss in case of disaster with your personal computer.

When I send a photo directly from iPhoto using the Mail app on my iMac, the wrong photo appears on my iPad2 Mail app. However the correct photo shows if I log into gmail on the iPad2. I assume there is a glitch with my "Mail" app on the iPad2.

When I send a photo directly from iPhoto using the Mail app on my iMac, the wrong photo appears on my iPad2 Mail app. However the correct photo shows if I log into gmail on the iPad2. I assume there is a glitch with my "Mail" app on the iPad2? Any suggestions for getting the correct photo to show on iPad2?

Update: I was able to have the correct photo show in my email as received on my iPad2 by changing a setting on my IMac prior to sending the photo on the email.
On the iMac, I went into iPhoto > Preferences > Email photos using > Mail (in lieu of "iPhoto"). This seems to have corrected the issue. I'm not sure why. Now the correct photo shows up when received on my iPad2.

This is probably not the answer to all your questions, but I am sure it answers some.
Unlike Word and InDesign, FrameMaker's anchored frames, which hold graphics, "hang" from their insertion points, typically at the end of the paragraph. An anchored frame that follows a paragraph is set to be below the line, the line being the last line in the paragraph. If you turn on View > Text Symbols, you will see a marker that indicates the point from which the anchored frame is hanging.
If the anchored frame is taller than the available space, it is moved to the next page ALONG with that last line. If the paragraph style/tag has a widow/orphan lines number that is more than 1, then that number of lines are also moved to the next page, because the paragraph tag says to keep that many together, EVEN if there is space at the bottom of the previous page.
So, you can set the widow/orphan lines number smaller OR as you have done put a blank line before the anchored frame, which now holds the marker for the anchored frame, and set its font size to 2 pt (the lowest FrameMaker allows) and its line height to zero. This is the standard workaround UNLESS you use the line above the anchored frame as the title/caption of a figure, which is also a typical way of dealing with FrameMaker's ways.
To my knowledge, one cannot change the default of the checked cropped box. Maybe others know of some way to change this.
There is no page break in FrameMaker, hence there is no symbol for it. In the paragraph designer for the paragraph, you set to Start of the paragraph to Top of page. Top of page is FrameMaker's equivalent to a page break. To "remove" a page break, set the Start of the paragraph to Anywhere.
Since you are new to FrameMaker, I suggest reading throught the User Manual that comes with FrameMaker. You will likely find the answers to most of your questions there.
Hope this helps,
Van

How do I fix it so the ssl_error_access_denied_alert error goes away when logging into Gmail?

When I log into Gmail from Firefox, I get the following error:
An error occurred during a connection to mail.google.com:443.
Peer received a valid certificate, but access was denied.
(Error code: ssl_error_access_denied_alert)
I've read the support forumn in Google support and none of the recommended fixes work.

In my case, I had to untick the "Use TLS 1.0" option in Settings - Advanced - Cypher - Protocols. Don't know exact translation into English, got Italian localization. Adding screenshot for reference.

Some accounts on iMac unable to log into Gmail (OS X 10.6.4, Safari 5.0)

I have 5 accounts configured on my Intel iMac.
After upgrading to Snow Leopard (OS X 10.6.4), some of the accounts are unable to log into Gmail directly from a browser (not using the Mac mail client). It seems to time out. These accounts were not previously using the Mac mail client.
The accounts that previously used the Mac mail client can still successfully retrieve their Gmail via the Mac mail client, and they can still log directly into Gmail from a browser also.
Operating system: OS X 10.6.4 (Snow Leopard)
Program and version you use to access Gmail: Safari 5.0
Your antivirus software (e.g. Norton 2007): None
Any extensions, toolbars or plug-ins: None

Hi,
Your antivirus software (e.g. Norton 2007): None
I hope that means you do not have Norton a/v software installed.
For Gmail. From the Safari Menu Bar click Safari/Preferences then select the Security tab. Click: Show Cookies. Delete all Gmail related cookies. Relaunch Safari.
If you still can't login to Gmail, open Keychain Access (Applications/Utilities). Select Passwords on the left. Delete the Gmail keychain.
Relaunch Safari. Login to Gmail as you normally do with your user name and password. When prompted, click Yes.

Firefox crashes after logging into Gmail account

Firefox (ver. 26.0 German) crashes without being able to report the crash!
I have found another crash report on this, BUT I have more detailed information on this issue.
Crashing started to happen, after I changed the privacy configuration as follow:
1st: I changed the config. from "accepting thirdparty cookies" from "yes" to "never" and
2nd: from "keep cookies until expiration" to "until close firefox".
Then I deleted all cookies.
From then, FF crashes when I'm loggint into Gmail, which is successful, but after two ajax/jquery "load()" calls (I can see the animation of reload icon twice!) FF crashes.
I was working with FF/Gmail before I changed the configuration, and everything was working well (I deleted cookies everytime I logged out of gmail). Nearby: I changed the configuration as there was only one Tab in one Window (my own static local startpage) open, and I was not logged in my Gmail account.
I have scanned (fullscan) my PC by "Kaspersky Internet Sec. 2014" (no malware found) +
I have scanned (fullscan) my PC by "Spybot - Search & Destroy" (no malware found) +
I looked into "Windows-Software" but there was no "BitGuard" +
I have deactivated all of Addons,
but FF crashes again and again.
When I change the config. to default, i.e. accepting thirdparty cookies and keeping them until they expire, FF does not crash anymore!
Hope this helps and has nothing to do with an NSA "feature/function" ;-)
Kindly Regards,
Pedram

The issue was not Gmail, nor Firefox, nor OS.
It was Bugfire plugin, which does not really stop tracking scripts!
I found and solved the problem by (step by step):
''(Please keep in mind that I am using German version, so some translations my not be 100%ly correct in FF English version!)''
1. loggins as Administrator
2. backing up the bookmarks etc.
3. deactivating all Plugins
4. unistalling all Plugins and modules ([[https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/disable-or-remove-add-ons|disable-or-remove-add-ons]])
5. uninstalling Firefox in Windows (Start ==> System Control ==> Software ==> (rightclick) Firefox ==> "remove", "Yes")
6. running explorer and navigate to "'''%tmp%'''" (without doublequotes!)
7.''' [CTRL + A] t'''o mark all temporary files and folders
8.''' [DEL]''' to delete them
9. Reboot
10. Installing Firefox
11. Testing Gmail -> it worked
12. changed configuration of Firefox to: "accept cookies form thirdparties" ==> "Never", and "keep until:" ==> "Firefox closes"
13. Restarted FF, logged into Gmail ==> it worked!
14. Then I started systematically installing plugins, started by "Adblock Plus" etc. one by one. After installing every Plugin I restarted FF and could log onto Gmail successfully, except after activaten of "Firebug".
My question: will this report be forwarded to firebug, or do I have to report it to the firebug Team (this is my first reporting on this site)?
Kindly Regards,
Pedram Ganjeh-Hadidi

How do I log into my iCloud account. I have iCloud installed on my iPad but can not figure out how to log into my iCloud account to restore a message

How do I log into my iCloud account. I have iCloud installed on my iPad but can not figure out how to log into my iCloud account to restore a message

Settings / iCloud on the iOS device to view your settings and options.
Storage & Backup / iCloud Backup is how you restore the device with your last backup.

HT204053 Can I log into iCloud with an alias email?

Noob here, did a search and couldn't seem to find an answer. (or I didnt look hard enough. ) So aplogies if these have already been asked before.
I want to change my iCloud email address, but I've searched around here and read that you can't change it once you create it and link it to your apple ID. So, I created an alias and was wondering if you could log into iCloud with an alias email?
For example if my iCloud address is [email protected] and my alias was [email protected], could I go to icloud.com and login using [email protected]?
Also, what are the proper steps to get the alias email to behave like the icloud primary email;I stupidly chose a dumb icloud email address and regret it, and if I set the alias to be the only email to be able to send mail in my iphone and macbook, can I basically ignore the primary icloud email and use the alias the whole time to send and compose mail?
Also, I don't necessarily need to know/use the primary icloud email, since I use my apple ID to log into icloud.com?
From what I understand, the primary icloud that is linked to your apple ID is mail server, right? I'm not really sure, to be honest.
Thanks!

In the Mail application on your Mac, add the aliases, separated by commas, to the 'Email address' field in Preferences>Accounts>General. They will then appear in the drop-down menu for the 'From' address in the New message pane.
They already appear in the equivalent place in the new message pane at icloud.com.
