New issue breaking Gmail when using custom domain name

I have been using my own domain name in conjunction with Gmail since the launch of Gmail.  The use case is fairly straightforward -- I have my own domain name and have created an email address alias on this domain ("custom email address') that forwards email to my Gmail account.  I have configured Gmail to override the From field with this custom email address.  With this configuration, Gmail is happy.  
On my Z10, I had created a Gmail email integration account via the Advanced Settings with my custom email address in the "email address" field and my gmail email address as the username with the appropriate gmail server settings.  When I continue from the advanced screen, I was taken to the Google account login screen where I grant permissions for my BlackBerry to access my account.  On this screen, I logged in using my gmail email address.  This worked fine and I received email without incident on my Z10 since I bought it on the Feb launch date ... until this past weekend.  My Z10 then suddenly reported that my settings had changed and nothing I could do could convince it to accept the above settings as correct.
If you have a similar configuration and have noticed recent issues, there is a solution.  This new "issue" appears to be that when you log into the Google permissions screen during the BB10 email account configuration process (i.e. the Google login page after you enter all the server settings in Advanced section of BB email account setup), you are no longer allowed to enter a username that differs with the custom email address you are setting up.  It won't ever tell you that this is the problem.  You just get a vague email settings error at the end of the process and you can't get your mail.  It is possible that Google is the one who introduced this glitch, since the solution is within your Google account configuration, not BlackBerry.  Simply put, you must associate your custom email address with your gmail account login within Google.
To do this, log in to Gmail using your usual gmail address.  Click on your Gmail address in the top right corner, select the "Account" link in the drop down.  Click the "Edit" link to the right of the Email heading.  At the bottom of this edit page add your custom email address in the field next to the label "Add a new alternate address".  After you add it, you will need to verify this address via an email that will be in your Gmail account.  I probably should have done this long ago, but never had the need to until now.
Now you can get BB email working again.  Go back to the BB10 account settings page for your Gmail account.  This time when are kicked over to the Google login page to grant permissions to your BlackBerry to access your account, use your custom email address as your Google username and use your usual Gmail password.

Amazing, Thanks !

  • Problem when using own domain name

    Hi,
    I recently updated my site and gave it a fresher look. I have my own damian name and use iweb and mobileme to host it. the site works fine but the one problem i have is that no matter what page I view of my site it always says my web address in the address bar. For example my site is thecarpetfitter.co.uk. It this site I have 7 pages plus some pages of photos. Now when i'm viewing my about me page the address bar still only says the main site address not thecarpetfitter.co.uk/about me. It does this for all my pages. It's a problem because nobody can bookmark an the actual page they want only the first pages that loads up (welcome page). How can I change this?
    cheers

    It sounds like you're using Forwarding rather than CNAME to link to MobileMe. See this article for the difference in the browser address bar:

  • Add Gmail account with custom domain to mail

    Hi there,
    I've added my standard Gmail account to the Mail app on my macbook air 2013 but i also have a school email from Google that I would like to add as well. This email uses a custom domain name so instead of [email protected] it would be [email protected] I've tried to add it in as a google account and as 'other' but i can't seem to make it work. Would be much appreciated if someone could walk me through the steps.
    If you have any questions let me know!

    I finally figured out my workaround (I'm using Mavericks).
    Go into Mail and Add Account.  Then do what wubie317 says, select "Add other account" DO NOT select Google / Gmail.
    You will then be asked to enter the mail server addresses for Gmail.  The info is below.  Good luck!
    Incoming Mail (IMAP) Server - Requires SSL
    imap.gmail.com
    Port: 993
    Requires SSL:Yes
    Incoming Mail (POP3) Server - Requires SSL:

  • Interactive Report - search does not work when using custom authentication

    Apex 3.2.x
    I can authenticate fine with my custom authentication and all of my pages work okay except for one page that uses the Interactive Report feature. When I click 'Filter' then enter the column name, operation (contains, =, like, etc.) and the expression, then click the 'Apply' button, the page just re-displays and my filter information is missing?
    If I first login to Apex, select and run my application, the Interactive Report features work just fine. What's missing?

    More information:
    After login into my Apex workspace (development environment), when I display the Interactive Report and click debug I see this debug message:
    "using existing session report settings"
    When I login using my application's custom authentication and click debug I see this debug message:
    "creating session report settings as copy of public saved report"
    Based on this, it appears that my session info in not set correctly when using custom authentication... but I'm not sure what needs to be set.

  • Custom domain name pointing issues

    Hi
    I've set my custom domain name for my webpages and it is working fine - www.domain.com points to my iweb site. But how can i make sure that domain.com (without the www.) also points to my iweb site? I know I could change settings on my domain registrar (godaddy) and create an A record but it requires an IP address to point to...
    Any ideas?

    But how can i make sure that domain.com (without the www.) also points to my iweb site?
    Please read the 3rd bullet on the godaddy instructions
    http://help.godaddy.com/topic/163/article/4100
    I know I could change settings on my domain registrar (godaddy) and create an A record but it requires an IP address to point to...
    If you want to do it that way, you use the IP for web.me.com You can find this at any of the countless websites which let you look up IP's.

  • Azure AD user name not using configured custom domain name

    I have configured a few users for Lync Online that I setup before I had custom domain name work with Azure AD.  Now I have the custom domain setup and verified and configured as the primary domain.  The users that were configured for Lync
    Online are still displayed with the *.onmicrosoft.com username in Azure AD.
    Is there a way I can change these users so their usernames use our custom domain?

    You can easily change the UPN via PowerShell:
    Set-MsolUserPrincipalName -UserPrincipalName [email protected] -NewUserPrincipalName [email protected]
    If you want to do this in bulk for all users, you can use something like this:
    $all = Get-MsolUser -All
    $users = $all | ? {$_.UserPrincipalName -match "tenant.onmicrosoft.com"}
    $users | % {Set-MsolUserPrincipalName -UserPrincipalName $_.UserPrincipalName -NewUserPrincipalName $_.UserPrincipalName.Replace("tenant.onmicrosoft.com","domain.com")}
    Test it first against a single user of course :)

  • Smartform font spacing Issue when using SAP printer name

    Hi Friends,
    I am facing some spacing issues when printing a form using SAP printer name. If I use LOCL then the output comes perfectly but when I use the SAP printer name the space between characters are getting widened and so the alignment of each column goes wayward. I suspect it could be due to the device type but not sure which seeting controls this. There is a similar problem in the logo as well. When using LOCL the logo comes out good but when using the printer name the quality is not good and becomes pixelised. Have any of you faced similar issues? Can you provide some guidance or pointers for the solution.
    Device type of LOCL : ZSAPWIN
    Device type of SAP printer name :  ZHPLJ5
    CPI is defined in smartform as 10.
    Please let me know if you need more information.
    Thanks,
    Praveen

    Hi,
    This problem occurs because the printer driver for both the printers are different,
    I suggest you use Local printer only or configure any other printer with printer diver in SAP as SAPWIN.
    Regards,
    Bharat.

  • Custom Domain name for Azure virtual machine using azure websites

    Hie, I am using a cloud service (e.g cloud1) and it has a hosted VM in it (Windows server 2012). It is having a URL cloud1.cloudapp.net. So I want to use the domain name (e.g azuresite1.azurewebsites.net)created from azure.
      So how do I add the Cname record and everything in this setup .
      I already tried to use
    this but that didn't work
     What additional steps are required to add custom domain name to an azure virtual machine and, the custom domain name is also an azure website

    If you want to use azuresite1.zurewebsites.net then i think, you have to create a azurewebsite. If you have a custom domain then following should work.
    You have findout the IP that is attached to the VM. 
    Point your domain name to that IP (using domain dashboard)
    Now your domain points to whatever the site hosted on the VM (port 80)
    If you have more sites then, you have specify HostName for the site which you want to use with domain name.
    Try and let me know if this helped.

  • Error message when publishing to MobilMe using GoDaddy domain name

    Hi all,
    I am trying to publish my site from iWeb '09 to MobilMe. I am using a domain name purchased through GoDaddy. When I publish the entire site in iWeb, it seems to publish fine, but when I click to "visit site", I get a page with an error message, "Looking for something on MobileMe?
    The account you requested doesn't exist or is currently inactive. Please make sure the URL is spelled and capitalized correctly, and try again.

    I have checked my login info, etc. I have no idea why this isn't working. Any thoughts???
    Thanks so much - Chris

    That Vist button has been a problem for others also. Why, I don't know. Try using the File ➙ Visit Published Site menu option. That has worked for me when the Visit button wouldn't.
    If that menu option works you can try the following to see if you can get the Visit button to work:
    1 - close iWeb.
    2 - delete the iWeb preference file, com.apple.iWeb.plist, that resides in your Home/Library/Preferences folder.
    3 - go to your Home/Library/Caches/com.apple.iWeb folder and delete the contents.
    4 - reboot.
    5 - launch iWeb and try again.

  • Design a site, use my domain name, and host it via .mac

    It sounds simple, and I thought a search through these forums would yield some easy answers, but no luck, so here goes:
    I'm an advanced Photoshop and Final Cut Studio user, running an audio/video/image restoration and transfer business, but I'm a total beginner in the iWeb/.Mac area.
    About three years ago, I decided it was time for a web site, so I went to a local company; they designed and still host my site, for which I pay them $30.00 per month; it's a simple site with no ecommerce, and six or seven pages. There is a contact form through which potential customers can email me.
    I also have a domain name, for which I pay $15.00 per year to the same company.
    My site is OK, but it's the same as it was three years ago; any small changes I have asked the company to make (mostly just text additions/changes) they have done at the rate of $75.00 per hour.
    What I want to do is cancel my account with them, design a totally new site using iWeb, start a .mac account, and have the site hosted using my domain name, so that the average customer who sees my newspaper ad can navigate to my new site exactly as they can with the current one. (I only have one email account, through my ISP, which I don't want to change.)
    I've got lots of questions, but mostly, what else do I have to do to make this switch besides cancelling my account with my current company? (After an overlap period, of course) What happens with my domain name--who will I pay to keep it? And finally, what simple things am I not thinking of?
    Many thanks in advance to anyone with enough patience to read through this, and still find time to provide some assistance.

    You can design your site in iWeb and upload it to either .Mac or a commercial server.
    You would then provide the domain name registrar with your server ID number or, in the case of .Mac, your .Mac URL and instruct them to point your domain name in that direction.
    .Mac is neither intended for, nor the best option, for a business site.
    For example the company I host with - Host Excellence - allows you a free domain name registration and up to 6 sites with unlimited web mail and more server space than you are likely to need for about the cost of a .Mac account.
    Commercial servers are a lot more reliable than .Mac, have wider bandwidth and usually have good tech support.
    You only have to look at the number of problems in this forum concerning .Mac to see that tech support is not readily available from Apple.
    I'm not putting down .Mac. I use it myself for various purposes and it is good for its intended use of one clicking publishing of personal websites.

  • Using Customized group name fields in Live Office

    Hello everybody,
    I've created a Crystal Reports based on a BEx Query and including a costcenter hierarchy. Now I want to add this report in Excel sheet via Live Office. I did this according to the official HowTos provided by Ingo Hilgefort. Now I've following issue. When I choose the data for the selected fields in Live Office, I could manage to insert the Live Office object into my report but the display of the cost center hierarchy nodes doesn't comply with the display in Crystal Reports. There I've defined a group with a customized group name field (costcenter.medium description) Live Office seems to use only the costcenter node ID.

  • Using Multiple Domain Names to Access Our Portal

    We operate one domain corp.company.com but all internal intranet web servers get  assigned the address inside.ZZZ. The inside.ZZZ is on our IE exclusion list but company.com is not. Adding company.com seems to be a miserable task so we are looking at adding an alias so our users can access the server at the new inside.ZZZ url. We have DNS pointing the URL to the right server and that seems to be working properly.
    Something within the application is redirecting the page to gnwhepdev.corp. company .com (our server’s domain address) after the initial login.  Since *.corp. company .com is not in the exclusion list, it is considered an outside address and rerouted.  We are trying to find some way to pass the alias within the  application itself so that we don’t need *.corp. company .com in the exclusion list and we can point users to the inside.ZZZ url.
    Our team researched this issue and found documentation that supported the use of multiple domain names to access a Enterprise Portal.  The documentation that we found is below:
    How To…Configure the J2EE Engine Deployment Descriptor (Version 1.00 – July 2004)
    https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/d0eb8120-b66c-2910-5795-894f384fc054
    Particularly on page 13-15 in the documentation it talks about enabling the portal via multiple domain names (Section 3.7:  Using Multiple Domain Names to Access the Portal).  Also, the documentation says the following:
         You must have sever proxy servers, each with a different domain name.  You then activate the filter mechanism and configure it to work with several proxy servers
    We have several questions about the possiblities of being able to set this up and whether it would require another server where Web Dispatcher would need to be installed for this configuration to work properly.  Can someone please provide some insight into what needs to be configured and answer the question about the Web Dispatcher?  Also, if Web Dispatcher is required, what steps need to be done to configure?  If Web Dispatcher is not needed, what will we need to do apart from that to set this up for our Enterprise Portal system?

    It is but you have to use masking......
