Why can I not get a gmail account on my macmnini?

Why can I not get a gmail account on my macmnini?
It tells me "unable to confirm account name or password.
But the same name and password worked on my ipad 2.

If you have a Gmail account and you've activated 2-step verification, you need to generate a new "application-specific password" in your Google account and enter it in place of your old password in the Keychain Access application.

  • Why can I not use my gmail account calendar on my MACbook Air?

    Why can I not use my gmail account calendar on my MAC, when I try to sync it, it says "secure connection cannot be established" Is there a setting I don't know about?

    Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Console in the icon grid.
    Make sure the title of the Console window is All Messages. If it isn't, select All Messages from the SYSTEM LOG QUERIES menu on the left. If you don't see that menu, select
    View ▹ Show Log List
    from the menu bar.
    Click the Clear Display icon in the toolbar. Then try the action that you're having trouble with again. Select any messages that appear in the Console window. Copy them to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. Paste into a reply to this message (command-V).
    When posting a log extract, be selective. In most cases, a few dozen lines are more than enough.
    Please do not indiscriminately dump thousands of lines from the log into this discussion.
    Important: Some private information, such as your name, may appear in the log. Anonymize before posting.

  • TS3899 Why can't I get my Gmail account to work after my ipad reset?

    Took my ipad to Apple store due to a software problem which was fixed by doing a reset. I then restored and backed up/sync'd my ipad in ITunes and iCloud. Now I can't get my gmail account to work on my iPad. It won't send or receive emails and I keep getting the message that my user name or password are incorrect, which I know they are not. The message is "the user name or password for imap.gmail.com is incorrect"...  I tried deleting and re-adding the account, powering down the iPad but to no avail. I can log into to gmail on my computer so I know I have the correct password.  Any thoughts or ideas? Don't really want to go back to the Apple Store again....

    Try this first - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.)
    Or this - Delete the account in Mail and then set it up again. Settings->Mail, Contacts, Calendars -> Accounts   Tap on the Account, then on the red button that says Remove Account.

    In Dreamweaver CC why can i not get any workspace options? Where do I find 'Draw AP div' or any of my 'designer' tools?

    Insertion of APDivs/Layers are deprecated in CC. Historically, APDivs caused many, many problems for people who didn't understand they were not intended to be used as a primary layout tool.  Look at FluidGrid Layouts.

    This article is vague and unhelpful. My iTunes needs help from a pro.
    I have over 120,000 songs -- NO movies, TV, radio, or books...
    I have other programs which efficiently run things which are not audio-based.
    So why can I not get iTunes working well?? It now takes at least 10 secs for any operation to be completed!
    That is just plain evil. But I am sure I could do something to help.
    All the music is on an 2T external drive.

    TS1717 as noted in the thread title...
    Brigancook, is the library database on the external or just the media? iTunes reevaluates smart playlists and rewrites its database after every action on the library. I've found this can make a library half that size, with a lot of smart playlists, quite sluggish. That said I'm aware part of my problem is aging hardware. Having the database on the internal drive may improve performance if it is currently on the external.
    I'd expect to see an exponential relationship between size and response time which may explain what you see. Cutting down on the number of smart playlists might help. If we're really lucky the long awaited iTunes 11 might have streamlined some of the background processes as well as cleaning up the front end.

    Look in settings, safari.  There are two setting that might help, depending on how the website wants to see you.  If they are using cookies, make sure your accept cookies switch is on.
    Then look at the autofill setting.  You can turn names and passwords on or off.

  • Why can i not get my ipad to recognize my wireless printer but my apple desktop works with it

    Why can I not get my ipad2 to print from my my wireless printer that i use for my apple desktop

    It's also possible that your wireless printer will work with a minor OS tweak if you're on Snow Leopard OS X 10.6.x. Your Mac system must be on for printing to occur. (I haven't tested with Leopard 10.5.x or Lion 10.7.x)
    Details are found in this Apple Support Communities thread begun in November 2010
    https://discussions.apple.com/thread/2658720?threadID=2658720&tstart=0
    I've been using it to print to a Canon MP560 wireless printer and an HP LaserJet 1320 USB-to-Mac printer from my wife's iPad 2 since the first day she received it for both photos and documents.  Duplex printing to the Canon does not seem to be supported.

  • Why can i not get my amazon intant movies to come up on my apple tv?

    Why can I not get my amazon instant movies to come up on my apple tv from my ipad airplay?

    Not an AppleTV problem as such.
    Many app developers seem to block video airplay of content that you can watch in an app.
    I can only assume this has something to do with rights issues for the movie/show.
    Check on amazon's instant movies site for more info.

    Check out this post regarding this user's continuing use of Eudora on his Lion MacBook:
    Shield Eudora from Lion's Claws
    A thousand thanks and kudos to Michael for this fabulously excellent thread!
    Eudora's now happy in her new Snow Leopard VM home on my Lion ModBook!
    Appears essential to keep resource-forked data off Lion disk:
    First attempt with Eudora on SL VM was sharing data on Lion disk. Error messages on open like "can't find Table of Contents" suggest Lion ate resource forks crucial to Eudora.
    Found success by transferring data from SL Mac to thumb drive, then mounted drive in SL VM so Lion couldn't touch.
    While Michael warns against storing data in VM, appears there's no choice with Eudora. At least She's enthroned on a mirrored RAID.
    There is Nothing like Eudora! (to tune of "There is Nothing Like a Dame" from South Pacific -- Oops! my gray hair is showing!)
    (It's amazing Parallels can force Lion to store taboo resource forks. Thank God for code warriors!)
