I have Gmail account confusion issues!

When sending email from my new gmail business account (via Mac mail on my MBP),
it arrives stating it's from my personal gmail account.
Anyone got any ideas?
I've deleted the personal account and re set up the business account but
it still keeps doing it.
It's driving me mad.
Cheers
Dexter

I was having this problem until today.
I had tried to solve it earlier by deleting the Gmail account I use less often. That didn't work. Mail was still sending from the deleted account.
What I then discovered is that even after a Gmal account has been deleted, it lurks as an SMTP server setting for outgoing mail.
Here's what I finally had to do:
Delete all Gmail accounts.
Go into Mail accounts and pull down the menu labeled "Outgoing Mail Server (SMTP)."
Select "Edit SMPT Server List."
Find the SMTP server for Gmail in the list and then click the minus sign to delete it.
That should totally eradicate Gmail from the Mail software.
Then, go back in and add the one Gmail account (Mail just doesn't seem able to support two) you wish to use.
Since I did the above, I've been able to use my primary Gmail account without it being confused with my secondary one. It's still a bug in Apple's Mail program, however, that two Gmail accounts can't coexist without being confused.

I receive both My husbands emails and mine through my ipad. We both have gmail accounts. His emails are coming down on the ipad but not mine. I haven't received mail since Saturday and as we use the email for business I desperately need it.

I receive both My husbands emails and mine through my ipad. We both have gmail accounts. His emails are coming down on the ipad but not mine. I haven't received mail since Saturday. We use the email for business I desperately need it and I don't have a laptop anymore as it is broken. In my wisdom I desired to buy an ipad instead, what a mistake.

The iPad will support multiple Gmail accounts, but of course you have to set each one up individually. Did you set up both accounts? Go into Settings/ Mail, Contacts, Calendars to confirm both accounts exist. If they do, also familiarize yourself on how to navigate between accounts to make sure you can view your Inbox. You may also want to check your settings to make sure that you have the default account set up as you expect for Mail, Contacts, Calendar, and Notes (if you're using all those features). That is important only when initiating something new, you have to have a default account to do such a thing so make sure the default is your account since it is your iPad (assuming that's what you want).
Alternatively, install the free Gmail app and then use only his (or your) account with that app and use the standard iOS Mail app for the other account.

Gmail account/Blackberry Issues

Let me explain to in simple terms.
As you can see I have a gmail account. When I submit an email from my blackberry to any one client family or friend it default back to my work address example the mail address I use is ***@gmail.*** but the physical mail the client receives is ***@***.co.za. Blackberry allow me this option on the phone to default set the mail address of my employer so the client always get a professional mail. But iphone can not set default mail address, and that is where they lack against blackberry.
Regards
I went on the iphone to the default setting but the only option available was gmail. So I am back to square one that iphone cannot
set default mail setting.
How is it possible for iphone to do amazing things but cannot do this simple but extremely important function.?

My current Safari on my macbook is not supporting my gmail account. my issue or gmail issue?

Safari on my macbook is not supporting my gmail account. My problem or gmail?

Hi..
It's the v10.6.8 Snow Leopard operating system. It's no longer supported > Apple Kills Snow Leopard: OS X 10.6 No Longer Receives Security Updates
See if your Mac can upgrade to Yosemite > Apple - OS X Yosemite - How to Upgrade
It's free and available for download from the App Store.
Upgrading to Yosemite v10.10 will also update Safari to version 8.0 so you can access your Gmail account.
Prior to upgrading. If you use Rosetta to run PowerPC apps you need to read this article > Upgrading to 10.7 and above, don't forget Rosetta! | Apple Support Communities
If your Mac cannot be upgraded to Yosemite, the Firefox browser still supports v10.6 Snow Leoaprd > Download Firefox — Free Web Browser — Mozilla
No guarantee it will support Gmail, but worth a try.

For everyone's iMessage that isn't working: do you have Gmail accounts? Or other accounts?

We just made the connection between myself and three of my friends that we all have apple ID's that are @gmail.com, or Gmail based.
Not saying this is the root of the problem but its the only link I can find.
Suggestions?

Hi,
The type of Apple ID is rarely mentioned in the Threads about the issue with all Contacts appearing "not Registered" on the Mac whilst working elsewhere.

Cannot setup new gmail account

Wow, this is frustrating.
I have Gmail accounts already set up on my iphone. But I am trying to set up a new one, and sync only the calendar. I tried this with an existing account I want to use to see calendar entries on my iPhone and I tried creating a new Gmail account as well. Same results.
On my iPhone4, I went to Settings-Mail, Contacts, Calendars-Add Account-Gmail. I put in a name, the full email address, the correct password, and a description. When I save, it verifies successfully. Then it asks me to turn on Mail, Calendar, and/or Notes. I only want Calendar for this one (although I have tried selecting each of the others as well. I've tried this many times now) so I turn it ON and the other two OFF and press SAVE.
It says "Adding Account" at the top. Next to that is the spinning circle wait cursor icon. And it stays like that forever. At least 15 minutes with me touching the screen everytime it went dim.
I also tried it a different way. I added the account as described above except I left everything off (Mail, Calendar, Notes). The account did add! However, when I went back into the account and tried to turn on Calendars, it says "Turning On Calendars" with the spinning circle. And stays that way forever. Once again, I let it sit that way for 15 minutes as well.
Help?

Okay, so two hard resets (pushing and holding home button and power button together) in a row did the trick. I had done it once already prior to posting this. I did it again, and then for laughs I did it a second time. And to my amazement, it worked. Thanks for looking at this topic. Issue resolved.

On your Mac, try to access your gmail account. There should be a link you click for "Forgot My Password". Click it and try to retrieve your password.

I have my @gmail account for iTunes purchases, and my @me account for contacts/calendar, how do I approach iCloud and how will this affect me?

I know accounts cannot be merged. The @gmail account has existed for years before the @me account.
I haven't been able to set up my phone yet because I have absolutely no idea how this will affect me, when it was quite clear before.
How will this affect me in the future? What about when my @me service expires (I had just under a free year left)? What email should I link? What should I be worried about if kept separate or the same as they are now?
I still don't even understand what exactly iCloud does yet. If I set up my phone with whatever my iCloud account is, is it locked in? Since no credit card info or applications or purchases are associated with it, it will be of no use in that area.
I am absolutely confused on what I should do, and after spending 4 hours attempting to update my phone, am still stuck on having a useable device.

This point I don't quite understand. It is clear that:
   1) your additional 20gb are available only up to next summer
    2) the migrated account will be downgraded to a free account then.
    3) the purchased music and apps do NOT count in the 5 gb.
So, I don't know what you need the 20 gb in the "unused AppStore account" for. Your documents and emails are all on the 25 gb account.
I think, you can log into your non-me.com AppleID and change your e-mail address there without loosing what you purchased. So, I wonder what would happen if I put the me.com address there...
Not sure, I would try...
Regarding the me.com AppleID, you should make sure you have a secondary email account added there, otherwise it might be difficult to recover that account in case you cannot read the me.com email anymore. Interestingly, when I tried to put my non-me.com address there, it complained about that email already used by a different account. So, I guess if you try to put your gmail account there it will complain. So, you probably need a third independant email account....

Issues with Mail and SMTP and Gmail Accounts

So this isn't a question....more like a solution that I had to figure out.
We have multiple gmail accounts in our family and after upgrading to OSC Yosemite our gmail accounts wen't haywire. My wife was sending emails that eventually were sent from my gmail account (mass neighborhood emails at that.....and all replies came to me instead of her). I spent about 2 hours investigating and put together several different threads that finally fixed out problem. The root of the issue is that you can share the same Incoming Mail Server for all of your gmail accounts and your mail will go to the accounts that it is supposed to go to, but you have to have individual Outgoing Mail Servers for each of your accounts otherwise all outgoing mail will come from one account only. I don't know why this happened, it is a pain in the butt, but here's how I fixed it with 3 gmail accounts running through 1 mac.
1st - you need to remove all of your gmail accounts from mail via Internet Accounts in Settings. Just highlight the account and hit the minus sign at the bottom. You won't lose anything if you have your gmail settings set to default which backs everything up to Google's servers....it will all load back to you mac and it will all be available online at gmail.com
2nd - you need to add back all of your accounts one at a time (and follow all of the following steps for each account before adding another). Select the plus sign and choose Google (for gmail accounts only).
3rd - Give your gmail account a recognizable name in the "Name" field (if you have multiple Gmail accounts to add, you will want to distinguish between them).
4th - type in your username ([email protected]) and password. Make sure to add the suffix @gmail.com.
5th - Check the boxes that you want to add to your mac (mail, contacts, calendars, messages, notes).
6th - Click the "Details" button to ensure that you have an adequate description (see # 3 above) if you are going to have multiple gmail accounts to add.
7th - Open the Mail app.
8th - From Mail Preferences/Account Information Tab - make sure that you account is Enabled (check box next to "Enable Account", make sure that you have an adequate description name, email address is correct, Incoming mail server is imap.gmail.com, Username is your normal gmail login username (absent any suffix like .gmail.com), password is your gmail password.
9th - Then, from Preferences click on the Advanced tab and....Uncheck "Automatically detect and maintain account settings".
10th - Then, go back to Account Information Tab and.....from the Outgoing Mail Server (SMTP) dropdown box, select Edit SMTP List....
11th - You need to create an individual SMTP Server Account for each gmail account that you plan to add.
12th - To do this click the plus button. Server Name should always be smtp.gmail.com. Type in your own Description (I recommend naming it after the gmail account that you plan to attach it to).
13th - TLS Certificate should be "None"
14th - Click the Advanced Tab - From here, uncheck the box for "Automatically detect and maintain account settings". Then make sure Port is 587 (default is 25 for some ungodly reason). Check the box for "Use SSL".
15th - Set authentication to "Password". User name MUST contain a suffice (i.e [email protected]). Password is your normal gmail password.
16th - Click OK.
17th - Now your back at Preferences/Account Information - Link your account to the SMTP server that you just created by using the dropdown box next to Outgoing Mail Server (SMTP).
18th - Save all changes and close out of Mail App.
19th - Restart Mail and recheck steps 8-15....for some reason my passwords kept getting erased, but they eventually saved and took.
20th - Add another gmail account by following these steps and then recheck all along the way for passwords, suffixes, everything. You will want to make sure that your accounts are all properly linked to their respective Outgoing Mail Servers (hence the distinct naming descriptions).
21st - Once you have added multiple accounts send email between them to make sure that they are being sent from and received to the correct accounts.

Wow! Oh my goodness Patrick, thank you so much man. That's a ton of informatiion to take the time to write out step by step and share with strangers. I really, really am grateful to you. I've been dealing with this for a month, half the month I kept changing my passwords and kept assuming I was making some mistake. It used to work fine. About a week ago I started looking for a solution and couldn't find one that worked.
You have changed that sir! I'm good to go, stress level will lower when I am on my Mac, and I'm so glad to not have all these messages popping back up that I was done with!
Muchos Gracias Amigo! Owe you one...

I have 2 Gmail accounts - how do I get contact details from the 2 accounts uppdated in my iPhone3gs? Only one shows

I have 2 Gmail accounts, one Google Apps account and one regular Google account.
I use one for my business and the other for personal use.
Each account has a number of contacts (business contacts in the Google Apps account, and personal in the other). My problem is that when I made the configuration, only my personal contacts shows, not the one in the my business account
E-mail and calendars work just fine but the issue with contacts really bothers me. Can some one help?
Thanks!!
Andrés

You can't sync contacts between iPhone and Google directly and (i've tested this right now) you can't sync iTunes with two Google Accounts but only with one Google Account.
There is only one solution: First go to your private Google Account (use the website) and select Contacts. Select all contacts and export them as vCard (for Apple addressbook) and import them into iCloud addressbook. Now do the same with your business Google Account.
It is possible that there is a 3rd-party software which can do this automatically but i don't know any. Sorry!

Apple ID issues? i think i have two accounts but i cannot find out the password for the one that controols my apps!? please help!

I think I have two apple ID accounts.
The account I am using right now is Alexiaann22. Im like 99.9999% possitive that before this was my origonal account(rosepetttals).
When I am buying an app in the app store the apple id is already there and all you have to do is change the password. But the apple ID thaat is there is the Rosepetttals.
I am no longer using that email so I cannot get the password sent to it. I also cannot retrieve the password for rosepetttals because it says that the birthday I am entering is incorrect. but im pretty sure I would know my own birthday.
I know its alittle confusing but I would appreciate any feedback. Thanks you!

I am having this same issue, please help asap... I cannot listen to half of my music library and have never encountered this issue before.

I have Gmail account confusion issues!
