Removing GMAIL accounts

I've had the RAZR about 3 weeks.    I setup my work e-mail under the MAIL app and it worked fine until today when I had to change my password.  Then I got a "Could not connect to server".    Since Google (GMAIL) is our service provider someone here told me just to add the account to that app.   The problem is I had my personal gmail account there.   How can I remove my personal GMAIL account.   I do not want to merge the two accounts in any way.

    Hi maddog57!
I understand needing separate email accounts, especially for work emails. With Android devices, the original Gmail account can only be removed by hard reset. Steps: http://bit.ly/PGGi5g. Keep me posted if you need further assistance.
Thanks,

  • Remove Gmail account in Mail Folder

    After I follow all steps to choosing accounts and then selecting the gmail account it wants me to log in and I do and then I can do nothing to delete it even going to the bottom, bottom. It is as if the account no longer is recognized as it also says it
    cannot connect to server. This is a home computer, not a work computer.

  • How to remove gmail-account from Mail

    Now that my MobileMe-mail is up and running, and the mails to my gmail-account are forwarded to MM, I want to remove the gmail-account from the sidebar in Mail. However, when I right click theaccount I want to remove and click "delete mailbox" nothing happens, and the gmail-account still appears in the sidebar.
    Does anyone know what I should do to delete it?

    In Mail, select the File -> Preferences menu. Click on Accounts in the toolbar. Select your gmail account on the list on the left and press the Advanced tab. Uncheck the Enable This Account box. That should do it.

  • TS3276 Why is the Mail app mixing up my Yahoo and Gmail accounts? I am receiving mail in each account that appears to have "crossed over" from the other account.

    I have Mail set up with 2 different accounts (1 Yahoo and 1 Gmail). I am missing messages in my Yahoo account that all of a sudden appear in my Gmail account. I thought Mail was suppose to keep these accounts separate. There is nothing to connect the 2 accounts. (I am not accidentaly sending out e-mails using the wrong account) Is there anything I can do to fix this? Thank you!

    Have you done this: Mail  >>  Preferences  >>  Accounts  >>  Accountinformation  >>  uncheck gmail Account 2.
    Or remove gmail Account 2 at all from the MacBook by clicking on the minus sign.

  • HT4207 how can I remove a specific gmail account from my ipad 4?

    How can I remove a specific Gmail account from my ipad 4?

    Assuming you are not syncing with iCloud and you mean, syncing with iTunes only...(you can only use one or the other for syncing to prevent duplicates)
    iTunes -
    - Open iTunes on your Mac. Connect your iPad. Then click on your iPad (either its name or just "iPad"), then click the info tab (right above the photo of an iPad in the middle). From here you can select sync contacts, then sync groups, and select the groups you want and choose Apply/Sync in the bottom left corner.
    iCloud -
    - With iCloud if you just sign into iCloud in System Preferences and turn on Contacts, it will prompt to merge all of your contacts that are not already syncing with Gmail or Yahoo!, etc. so there really isnt a way to pick and choose as much with that.
    - However if you really want to use iCloud and not iTunes, you could import the contacts that you want into iCloud.com, but you would need to export them from your Contacts App on your Mac and then import them into iCloud (VCard / .VCF is the format you want).
    * Exporting the contacts from your Mac Contacts Application --> http://mac.tutsplus.com/tutorials/app-training/contacts-101-a-beginners-guide-to -contacts-on-os-x/ (further down the page)
    *Importing contacts into iCloud.com - http://support.apple.com/kb/PH3605
    **NOTE - Remember if you do the import into iCloud.com method, DO NOT sign into System Preferences > iCloud, and choose to MERGE contacts. If you do this later, all of your contacts will merge with iCloud and you will have duplicates of this group.
    I hope this isnt too confusing. Have a good night!

    How do I remove Apple Mail from my hard drive? Over 10,000 downloaded into my mail and continues to freeze up---  I just want to use my gmail account directly

    I go to Gmail to do my email yes, in my browser, but ya know how sometimes you click on a website to email someone and it pulls up apple mail, and then tons of email dump into apple mail and it frequently causes my computer to lock up and have to shut down w/escape.  I thought it would be  better to take it off if I could

  • HT1277 I can't seem to get gmail from my apple mail account. I have removed the account and added it, but it says I have the wrong password. I close gmail and get in just fine. What's up?

    I can't seem to get gmail from my apple mail account. I have removed the account and added it, but it says I have the wrong password. I close gmail and get in just fine. What's up?

    I meant that I sign out, sign back in ok. Ergo, I know my password. Someone here on the support page  (you?) told me the culprit is the 2 step verification process which I had on. That makes a lot of sense as Apple mail won't get a code thereby jamming up the process. I could not even start a new account until I took that 2 step process off. Everything fine now thank you.

  • I am switching accounts with my brother (long story why) but I need to remove my emails from the Mail application. I removed my Gmail account but when I try to remove my iCloud email it still keeps the emails. Does anyone know to remove a iCloud email?

    Hi, how are you seeing these eMails if the account is removed?

  • TS4147 My Contacts are coming from my ICloud Account.  I want it to come from my GMAil Account.  I can remove it from ICloud, but Contacts isn't an option under GMAIL.  What can I do?

    My Contacts are coming from my ICloud Account.  I want it to come from my GMAil Account.  I can remove it from ICloud, but Contacts isn't an option under GMAIL.  What can I do?  Is there a way to merge my gmail contacts to icloud?

    If the old ID is yours, and if your current ID was created by editing the details of this old ID (rather than being an entirely new ID), go to https://appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your current iCloud ID.  Click edit next to the primary email account, change it back to your old email address and save the change.  Then edit the name of the account to change it back to your old email address.  You can now use your current password to turn off Find My iDevice, even though it prompts you for the password for your old account ID. Then save any photo stream photos that you wish to keep to your camera roll.  When finished go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account and choose Delete from My iDevice when prompted (your iCloud data will still be in iCloud).  Next, go back to https://appleid.apple.com and change your primary email address and iCloud ID name back to the way it was.  Now you can go to Settings>iCloud and sign in with your current iCloud ID and password.

  • If an iPhone is locked with somebodys Gmail account can you remove the account?

    If you have an iPhone 4 and it's locked with somebodys Gmail account is there a way to remove the old account?

    Only if you're able to reach the person who set the lock, or if you're the device's original owner(if so, contact Apple).

  • Removing GMAIL POP Account and Replacing with IMAP Account

    Because I want to sync my Gmail account on two Macs and discovered that IMAP is better at this than POP, I want to delete my Gmail POP account and add an IMAP account. Mail > Preferences indicates that all received mail will be deleted as well. Since I want to keep received emails, should I move them to a folder in On My Mac? I don't see where emails are stored on the hard drive, so until I know that I'll be able to retrieve them, I don't want to delete the POP account.
    Thanks,
    Nick

    Nick,
    You may find that all these messages also exist on the Gmail server, and if so they will sync with the IMAP access. The account folder and the Inbox, etc, can be found at Home/Library/Mail in a folder beginning with POP.
    You can leave the POP account, and only disable it in Mail Preferences/Accounts/Advanced until you check or transfer the info.

    I have 4 email accounts in apple Mail.  My mail is sending from the wrong account.  even on "reply" it sends from a different account.  I have 3 gmail accounts and one exchange server account. I choose which account to send from and it still sends from the same gmail account.  Help.

    I HAD two accounts because of this problem.  I completely removed the problem account from the Apple Mail client.  Guess what is happening??  That's right - Mail is still sending from the other account that no longer exists on my computer, and I have absolutely no idea how this is happening.  This is incredibly frustrating.  When a recipient chooses to reply to my message, quite often I won't get it now because it is going to the other account that has now been deleted from my system.  COME ON APPLE!!! WHAT'S THE DEAL WITH THIS???

  • I cannot switch gmail account users in iTunes

    I am trying to sync my wife's iphone with her gmail account but it keeps pulling contacts from my gmail account instead.
    I first configured itunes to use my gmail account for my iphone some months ago.  I keep my iphone in sync with my gmail account.
    This morning I plug in my wife's new iphone, change the contacts sync account to her gmail account, using her password, and then sync the device.  Her phone is now populated with my gmail contacts, not hers.  I've checked her gmail contacts via the web and they are not the same as what is in my account.
    I turned off contact syncing, selected the option to remove contacts, resync'ed, then her phone had no contacts - this was the correct and expected behaviour. 
    I shutdown iTunes, relaunched, checked the contacts sync option again, verified that the gmail account was set to her user id and password, re-sync'ed and it still downloaded the contacts from my gmail account.
    Besides being extremely frustrating that I cannot manage two iPhones with two different gmail accounts, this seems like a huge security hole if iTunes is secretly caching my gmail account credentials.

    Try going to www.appleid.apple.com on your Mac/PC and resetting your password.

  • HT5361 How do I set up multiple gmail accounts in Mail without them sending from the wrong gmail address?

    I have Mail set up with three gmail-based email accounts. I have chronically had an issue with sending email from one address and having responses to that original email come in to the other gmail addresses. When I try to select which server to send from, all three gmail servers are never online or available at the same time - it's always just one.
    How do I get around this? My gmail-based accounts are for three distinct audiences, so I need them to function properly. I would rather be able to do this in Mail than by switching to internet-based email or using Outlook for Mac. At this point, I have had to stop using Mail and am just doing it through the internet. I have deleted all of my email accounts out of Mail, so nothing is currently set up in the application. Do I need to do anything to Mail to really wipe it clean before I start creating my accounts again?
    Thanks in advance for your input!

    After removing the account and reinstalling it. currently both send and receive are showing on my Mac Pro..  My MacBookPro s another issue ... even when I send email in that account from the MBP it "flashess" in the sent mail and then dissappears.  I modified my "smart folder" and included "sent mail" and that was of no use either.  When I first reloaded that account on the MBP this morning both sent and inbox mail showed ... but now nothing in the "sent" folder even though it is still showing on the MP and in the OWA account.
    Since the mail is clearly in the OWA account I assume this is an Apple mail issue and not a GoDaddy (server) issue ..
