Keeps asking for Google Account

I tried to take a speedtest (www.speedtest.net) and once I have logged in and press the "Take a Speed Test" button, it blinks and switches to "Add a Google Account" . I dont use Gmail...don't want to , is this required ?  When I try to add the "Veetle Android App" I'm once again asked to add this "Google Account".  Is this a requirement to run anything on my new phone. I have a hotmail account as well as a charter.net account. I don't want a Google,com account ! Appreciate any and all help

I didnt realize that I bought a Google Device until I read your reply !  This is my first day with this phone , before this I had a Palm Pre Plus . I should have known...now that I've had time to think about it . Im gonna ask at least one dumb question: Can I open a Google Account my PC , then log in on my Bionic when asked ? I want it to operate as seamless as possible.
                                      I feel pretty darn foolish posting this question ....I thank you for being kind.

Yes, you can setup a account online on a PC and then log into that account on your device with the same information...

  • Internet Accounts keeps asking for Google password

    I've enabled 2-step verification on my Google account.
    I've had this account set up in Mail.app so it has an entry in my System Preferences > Internet Accounts
    Now, with 2-step from Google, there are Application specific passwords. Mail.app can no longer use my Google account password. I had to log in to Google and create a password just for Mac Mail.app.
    That worked just fine. Mail is now checking my Gmail for me.
    When I open System Preferences > Internet Accounts and look at my Google account, it asks for my password. My Google ID password no longer works, as I'd expect. So I entered my Application Specific password for Mail.app.
    This is the problem. It asks me three times, every time I want to look at my Google account details in System Preferences.
    Sound familiar to anyone? Anyone solve this?
    I tried creating an app specific password for System Preferences, but that didn't work.

    I just had exactly the same issue!
    Some extra info:
    Happened only in 2 of my gmail account (have several)
    One of them had 2nd factor auth enabled (account 1)
    The other one use simply a password (account 2)
    Both accounts accept the password on the 3rd try
    for the account ,1 it is the application specific password
    for the account, 2 it is the normal account password
    Moreover:
    account 1 uses: Mail, Contacts and Calendar
    account 2 uses only Mail
    Right now the issue in both accounts is 100% reproducible
    Account 2's password is rather long (>18 chars) and complex (Upper, Lower, Number and Symbols)
    This could indicate and issue, but I bet there many more user who had such extremes
    Even if that was the issue, account 1's application specific password is pretty simple and of a fixed size
    Seems like a bug on Apple's side...

  • Family sharing keep asking for payment account

    The issue seems to have resolved itself, I assume the issue was a glitch on Apple's end.

  • Mail keeps asking for SMTP account password

    My mail has quit working and prompts me to enter my password for the account. I enter the password but the prompt comes back every 40 seconds asking for the password again. Mail does not function at all now. Problem started about a month ago. How can I fix this?

    Mail asking for a password that you had previously had no problem with usually means the mail server at .Mac/MobileMe is on the fritz. These things usually resolve themselves on their own, but if it persists you may not be making contact with the mail server and may need to restart your computer. Sometimes just logging out of your account on your Mac and logging back in will fix it too.

  • TS1292 When I input code it just keeps asking for iTunes account password over and over again not loading card

    I got a £25 iTunes gift card for my birthday and I have tried to redeem it but it is not working. I don't know if it's not activated but there is no message saying that the card is not inactive and I have checked all the letters and numbers and I have entered them correctly. When I enter the code it asks me to enter my iTunes account password I do that and then it just brings up the box to enter the password again over and over again... Hope someone can help! Thanks!

  • IMac keeps asking for user account password when changing Airport

    Whenever I change anything in Airport (switching networks mainly) my iMac constantly prompts me to submit my user account password. All other macs don't do that. Any clues?

    Suggest that if you haven't already taken the next steps....open System Preferences > Network > AirPort and delete the current wireless connection by highlighting the name of the network, then clicking the - (minus) button at the bottom of the connection list. Click OK and then Apply.
    Open Macintosh HD > Applications > Utilities > KeyChain Access and locate the name of the wireless network, then highlight and delete that entry.
    Restart your Mac to see if that will allow you to start fresh.
    If still no luck, I'm afraid it's getting down to a re-installation of the operating system on the Mac.

    Hi, I need help and advice. Basically me and my ex partner both had iphones and synced it with the same computer under the same ID. We split up and now im trying to get all my apps and info onto my new laptop with a new account but it keeps asking me for the old apple ID which she is still using and she changed the password. i tried backing it up but still nohing. When i try to back up purchased items being apps etc its keeps asking for the old one. help

    See Recover your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device. But you'll still need the password.
    Once you have the computer authorized to use the account she could change the password again to stop you buying apps on her card (assuming it's not on yours!). It would lock you out of upgrading them too but they should work unless she uses the deathorize all feature.
    It depends on how amicable the split is...

  • I have redeemed my itunes money and want to buy music -yet it keeps asking for a credit card.  Won't take money from my account.

    I have money in my account -yet when I try to buy music it keeps asking for a credit card.  I saw that someone else had the same problem -yet no answer.

    Yes, it's a bind isn't it. I'm also new, just trying to help my young son download free games, but the amount of personal data that has to be divulged for such a simple task was quite a surprise and somewhat overwhelming.
    All to help him with his much wanted iPod which he got for Christmas. Thanks mum!

  • TS1368 My account keeps asking for Region but the drop down menu lists Cities in China. I can,'t cange the region in my account because it asks me to check the date and time but these are correct. Any answers please?

    My account keeps asking for Region but the drop down menu lists Cities in China. I can,'t cange the region in my account because it asks me to check the date and time but these are correct. Any answers please?

    Look, I understand I still need a card attached to the account. The problem is, it won't accept my card because I only have 87 cents in my bank account right now.
    If I had known there would be so much trouble with the iTunes card, I would have just put the cash in my bank account in the morning instead of buying an iTunes card (I didn't expect the banks to be open on Thanksgiving of course).
    Apple will only accept cards that have a balance. The balance is so small in my account that it won't accept it as a valid card.
    I'm going to have to contact Apple anyway to reset the security questions. That's obvious. Your answers were not exactly helpful. You didn't tell me anything I don't already know, but thanks for trying to be helpful.

  • ICloud Account Keeps Asking for Password in System Preferences

    I am extremely frustrated with iCloud. I'm on Lion 10.7.3.
    Two main issues:
    System Preferences, iCal, and Contacts keeps asking for my iCloud account password over and over again. It will not retain the password whne I type it in. I know the password is correct because when I type it in everytime the services update and retain the password until I log out and log back in.
    I tried to delete the iCloud account and set it up again to see if that would fix the issue, but I cannot delete the account. In System Preferences I have tried to delete the account using the minus sybmol at the bottom and have tried the "Sign Out" method. The account disappears until I restart System Preferences. I tried deleting the account and rebooting, but it is still there.
    Any ideas? I would love to know if there is a way to override all this in Terminal.

    Your iCloud password is incorrect?
    Are you using third party apps?

  • Mail keeps asking for password for my imap yahoo account?

    I have both a Rogers Yahoo and a Bell email account. The Rogers imap account keeps asking for my password however the password is correctly entered. Help!

    There's a long thread on here somewhere about Yahoo constantly requesting the password. Seems to have been going on some time with no real conclusion.
    However, I did see a mention somewhere else that a user managed to 'fix' the issue by changing his password so that it had no capital letters in it. Don't know whether this will help in your case, but maybe worth a shot if you pw has any cap letters.
    If I can find the link I'll post back.
