Galaxy S5 :: How To Add Addresses To Gmail Account
Apr 4, 2015
I can't seem to find a way to add e-mail addresses to my g-mail app. I cant find it in the user guide or maybe I'm just missing it. This is my first smartphone. With texts I'm dealing with phone #s. I want to put some contacts from my laptop onto my S-5.
I fixed the problem. Exported address book from desktop to folder, then attached to email and sent to smartphone.
I have checked settings-accounts and everything is checked to sync and it shows it sync'd earlier today but when I log into my gmail account and select contacts there is nothing there. How do I go about backing up this information to my gmail account?
I use gmail for my contacts. I noticed when I got my new S5 and logged into gmail some of my contacts had photos and some did not. When I went into edit contact on my desktop there was a photo that I had put in there before.
I checked to make sure that my phone was using my gmail acount for my contacts and it is.
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.
In the last week, I began receiving text messages from my friends that are being sent from their "gmail" address. Therefore, it seems to replace the other contact that I had in the phone.
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.
i just bought the iphone4 and everytime i try to log into my gmail account on my phone it says my password or account is incorrect but i can log on with the same information on my laptop and it works.. i changed my pw 3 times and it still wont work on my phone but it does on the computer..
I've had my un-locked S2 for over a year now and due to inactivity on the registered gmail account I am no longer able to use my phone for navigation or anything else that looks for me to be logged into my gmail account before proceeding.
I've searched for any answer that would avoid the "recommended" restore to factory defaults (which deletes all my apps, photos, etc). I found one reasonable "work around" which required running the root explorer APK, which I installed and ran only to get the message "application closed unexpectedly". Perhaps my phone has to be "rooted" to use this apk or it is simply corrupted.
Can anyone recommend a way to save all my data but change the "primary gmail" account? I could root the phone, if necessary but would like ideas before going that far afield.
when I�m texting an sms and I�m suppose to look up my contact, the Galaxy shows fex 3 options for the very same name (before I even choose one of them), where 2 of these are email addresses and not a phone number. The 3rd option gives me the alternative to choose either the mobile number (which is the option I want..) or again the two email addresses, which is ok. So, the first 2 options coming up here are confusing, and more than once I�ve sent text messages that never reached the person�s text inbox.. How can I fix this, and clear up my "text contact list" ? (in my Contacts app there is only one contact for this person)
I am having with the Google search bar on my home screen? Before I installed lollipop I was able to go into the settings on Google and just clear the search history on the search bar.However since installing lollipop I can no longer use the same method and am forced to clear each search subject individually.
I've been using the version of Android that came with my S2 for about a year. I use Keis and it managed to copy my Contacts and Schedule from my Office 2003 on my PC and it was fine on the S2.I upgraded to Android 4 this morning. The Schedule looks fine.The Contacts look fine apart from the fact that the Addresses read from bottom up - post code, town, street, house number.
I have been trying to add my gmail to my blackberry device all to no avail. Each time I enter my email and password, I received this error message "update failed". I was able to add my Yahoo Mail and is working fine. The problem is that, whether I enter the correct or wrong password, what I get is "update failed".
Under the instant mail account, yahoo logo display well, windows live and other email service providers also display well, but Gmail logo is not displaying the logo. Am using 2-steps verification for my Gmail and I have generated application specific password, but still having the same problem.
I tried to delete a gmail account from my g3. The process sent me to the web & it seemed to work, but seemed not to be completed on the phone, as the account is still there in accounts but highlighted in red with a "!" beside it.
Love this new phone but want to set it up with four Gmail accounts, not just one. Not to be able to simply add accounts but assume that there is a way. how?
Just bought a new iPhone 4s and I am having trouble adding a gmail account to it or my imac. I just created a new gmail account and I can access it through my browser but when I try to add to iphone or Mail on my imac it says the user name or password for "imap.gmail.com" is incorrect. I know I am typing correct user name and password as I can log on through my browser.
I'd like to send (and then keep synched) all my SGS2 contacts (including their email addresses) to Outlook 2003 on my PC. Sounds easy, eh?
Well, it works (over Bluetooth as well as USB), but somehow only the phone number(s) and some other details (postal address, company etc.) are stored in Outlook - but NOT the email addresses of my contacts!
IS it a known limitation? Is it due to the old version of Outlook? Is there a work-around?
I've set up my gmail on E72 and under mailbox settings->When to Sync I see an option called 'After Notification'. Can anyone explain what does this setting do and does it work?
For the past two or three day my X10a (2.1) had continually been trying to sync to my Gmail account. I can turn auto-sync or the data off to make it stop, but once turned back out it starts up again. I have deleted most of my newer mail in case there was something bad included with the mail. Not sure what my next step would be. With the phone trying to sync all the time make it slow to respond to commands.
Whenever I try & sign in to my account it comes up with " Can't establish a reliable data connection to server", my internet connection is perfect, using the wifi or without
I can't sign into the Market, which I've heard was suppose to update to play store but I can't sign into my google account, with the PC Companion it says I have the latest update already, By the way I'm living in the UK if that helps with anything. Also I have this app called PlayNow...
Ive recently updated my phone to android 2.1 and now i cant get onto market because it needs me to register a google account. I tried to register one and but i keep getting an error message saying that the server are busy and that i should try again later.... Ive tried who knows how many times and still no luck... I have even tried connecting to my Wi - Fi and still nothing.
My Yahoo! Mail account is associated with Gmail. I also have Yahoo mail separate app. The reason I associated my yahoo mail account with my Gmail app was the yahoo mail app's head was stuck in its arse (its performance sucked) . But there are two notifications for the same email and more importantly the yahoo mail app has started to do better- meaning I am not uninstalling it.
So my intention is now I want to remove the yahoo account from the Gmail. The problem is whenever I go to the Gmail app on my phone and remove the yahoo account By clicking remove account, it is gone. But, when I hit the yahoo mail app it starts from scratch like asking for username password and then showing "initialising mailbox". And finally the yahoo mail is again associated with Gmail !
I got tired of all the Gmail messages that were alerting my 8530 Berry and have successfully added my Google Apps gmail account that has my .business extension as a gmail account. Great so far, but can I change my .gmail account to not get notifications? Right now I have my . business gmails forward to my gmail account, but it's now redundant. I don't think I want to take my gmail account totally off because it might effect Google Voice etc.
I am having trouble setting up my Gmail account. My password and username are correct & the troubleshooting articles I have read about his haven't aided the process. Any suggestions?
I am using mail with a gmail account. The bottom of the screen has an icon in the middle that looks like a box. If I accidentally click that icon the email goes into it never to be seen again.what this is and where the email goes?
