BB Storm :: Cannot Connect To Gmail Account After Changing Password
May 31, 2010
Have used my gmail accounts on my BB for years without problem. Recently , I changed the password for one of my accounts and since then I have been unable to access this account via BB. I went in to Set up, email settings & entered new password & I get error ("Invalid email address or password. If error persists contact gmail") Tried deleting the email account on BB & entering as a new account, error still comes up. Went to gmail to authorize Applications & sites, requested a password, entered it twice. Once with spaces & again without spaces. Still get the error.

This morning I changed my gmail password from my laptop. This evening I was not able to sign into gmail from my phone, even though I typed in the new password. I tried clearing the cache, data, restore to factory, etc.

New member so forgive my mistakes. I have read the other threads on the above issue and they seem dated. I want to delete the original Gmail acct that the tech set up and use my regular gmail account without doing a factory reset to defaults.When I bought my Motorola Atrix at Costco in April 2011 the tech deleted all my phone contacts, data, and photos when trying to transfer to the Atrix. Then he set up a new required Gmail account for the Atrix and gave us the wrong password and security answer which I can not recover despite numerous tries with Google.I have another Gmail account with a good password and it is also on my Atrix. I can access both Gmail accounts on the Atrix because the unknown password is stored somewhere on teh phone. I cannot access my account settings to determine the correct password for the Gmail account I want to delete.What I'm really trying to do is somehow link my Atrix phone number to my regular Gmail and Motoblur acconts so I can use the Android Market from my PC and other functions. I cannot find anything on my regular Gmail account that allows me to link my Atrix phone with that account. It appears the phone is linked to the original Gmail acct the Costco tech set up and that I cannot acccess any settings on. The only settings (from both Gmail accts) I can access are the general ones that control notifications, rings, and messages.
My solution was to delete the account that I don't have a password for and then I would then a way to add my Atrix to my regular Gmail acct as the new Atrix acct or visa-versa. I will keep it screwed up if the only option is to reset to facotry defaults and lose everything. In a related question is there a way to transfer all my Atrix data to the micro SD card and then take it out and then reset?

Used to sync and back up on work computer. Now using my home laptop (don't ask - was there 12 years & it WAS home. Fired due to reorganization.). HP computer now recognizes my phone, but I do not know how to get the software set up to accept GMAIL. The defaults are for YAHOO, which I do not use.

When I click the mail icon to take me to my gmail account it says "the user name or password for gmail.com is incorrect". I know for a fact that the username and password are both correct because I can still access my gmail account through my computer. I have deleted the account and have tried reading the account but it will not let me.

I have multiple mailboxes. I have a yahoo and a Gmail. When I click on my gmail account it comes up saying it does not recognize my username or my password and yet it has my correct password and username. I have deleted the account and created it again to get the same messages on my iphone.

The new message indicator on my phone is always showing on my GMail account even when there are no new messages when I unlock my phone. However, if I open the email account (and find no new messages), and then close it to go back to the home screen, magically the icon has disappeared. A fix, right? Except when I relock the phone, the same issue keeps recurring.Battery pulls and restoring the OS does not help.

I recently recieved a replacement Storm from Verizon. My Storm is not accepting the password for my Gmail account, but I know that I am entering it correctly. I called Verizon and after an hour long conversation they couldn't figure out my problem, so I hope I will have better luck with y'all.When I go to Setup-Email Settings
My listed email accounts include my Gmail account, but the text is red and it says "Invalid Account. Please Validate" So I click on it, type my password, and it says "Your xxxx@gmail.com password is invalid. Please try again"If I go to the mobile site or go to gmail on my PC I enter the same password and it works flawlessly. It was working fine on my old Storm. I'm not having any other issues with email or data. I am getting my comcast email that I had no issues setting up. I have tried deleting the gmail account and re-adding it. What could be the issue?On a related note, when I first click "Setup" and then "Email Settings" it wants me to log in to the BIS. It has never prompted me to do that until I got this phone.

I have a galaxy s6. I have connected my personal gmail account to the gmail app on the phone but it will not let me do so with my university email which works with gmail as well.
I keep getting this error:
"There was a problem connecting to idp.okstate.edu"
and also
"security certificate is not trusted by your device's operating system"
I never had this issue when connecting the account to my gmail when I used my iPhone.

My Photon 4 G does not sync calendar, contact, Gmail with my company Gmail account. I believe that it just stopped syncing last week and I believe that it was following a Motorola update, but cannot say for sure. Under Data Delivery, both Background Data and Data enabled are checked green. However, this is interesting because Email and corporate sync is grayed out on that screen. When I go to Account, checking the sync options is not possible, but I can do a manual sync. Please note, at one time, these options to sync Contacts, Gmail and Calendar were available. I've pulled the batter. I really do not want to reset to factory default. Suggestions? (Please note this is a company Gmail account, not just regular Gmail.)

I don't know if my thread title makes sense but basically what I would like to know is what are the advantages of downloading the Gmail app vs just setting up a Gmail account through my BIS (Email Settings/Add Account)? My main objective here is wireless contacts sync. I have read a lot of negative feedback regarding Gmail on a BlackBerry but I will not really even be using this for email all to often, although I will from time to time.
What I have done is just added my new Gmail account through the native BlackBerry email setup and then downloaded Google Sync. I downloaded the Gmail app but I didn't really like the UI and I like to have all 3 of my email accounts go into the same folder.

My Blackberry has inadvertently decided to sync all of my personal contacts to a work Gmail address. My actual device won't let me change the syncing address directly on the contact edit page. Is there a way to change the Gmail address where these contacts sync without having to re-enter all of my contacts?

All of a sudden, my Alias mail account name is telling me that the password or account name is incorrect.So I go into SETTINGS as the button appears for it, and I hit it check all the settings and the settings are fine, nothing has changed. I have not had this problem in over 5 years! Is this a symptom of iCloud going full, taking over MobileMe? I cancelled my MM account 3 months back and have not had any problems. Why has this problems suddenly started appearing? I was looking at the mail in the ALIAS account from the alias account. Now I am looking at it through my main account, which is also reacting slowly due to this problem.

When I'm on my 4S and goto install pending App updates, it requires a password. That password is different than my iTunes store password. Is that correct? I know the password to install the apps, but can't figure why it's different. It seems wrong. My iTunes userid is a "xxxxx.mac" format and when I goto install the apps, it just says my userid is just "xxxxx".BTW, when I plug my 4s into my imac, iTunes does not recognize it. It is recognized on my Macbook. Not a cable or port problem. This is a whole other issue, but I wonder if they're related.

My ISP has moved my email account to an imap server. The email now has a different username and password, although still the same email address. the emails are now not coming through to my blackberry curve 9300. I've tried to change the user name (in settings, email, login info) but it won't let me edit the field. Should i delete the whole account and start again? They are coming through on my 02email address but that's not very useful to me.

I just changed my Apple ID username and password on my mac pro which changed my iCloud account settings. But when I try and change the iCloud settings on my iPhone to match the mac pro it won't let me because I need to enter the old account's password which virtually doesn't exist anymore.Â
