Motorola Droid Bionic :: Unable To Add Email Or Social App Accounts - Error Occurred
Sep 20, 2011
i am having problems with my bionic adding accounts under the my accounts settings area. every time i try to add my picasa, facebook, Internet, or twitter it says 'an error has occurred please try again later'. when trying to add an email account it says auto setup is not available for the provider (tried with my gmail, yahoo, hotmail, & verizon accounts). i got around that by finding the manual values to fill in for each provider account, but that's just email. i am pretty miffed on the others not working.
mostly because i would like to have picasa in my gallery and be able to share photos from gallery or after taking with camera app to picasa and/or facebook. i do not want to have the facebook for android app on my phone, so just having the account set up in blur would be sufficient. i have tried taking my timezone off the automatic setting and retrying to add picasa account, still no joy. still in my 14 day trial with the bionic and am certainly being swayed by this issue

I have been using various Android phones now for quite a while (including some Motorola ones) and I've never had this happen before..I have multiple email accounts setup on my phone (both Exhange and POP). In the past, I could use the "Email" icon and tap on the name of the email account at the top and it would drop down a list of email accounts on the phone and then I could choose the one that I wanted. Now, when I click on the name of the email account, I get a list of folders on the default account. I cannot find a way to switch accounts other than going to the Messaging icon and picking it there. I do not like the universal inbox. I would love to know a shortcut if anyone has figured this out other than having to go to the messaging section.

how often the social apps for facebook and twitter sync for those accounts integrated on the RAZR. On the Bionic which was very similar, we had the option of selection "PUSH" or we could fetch the data for those feeds at different time frames. I dont see that option at all on the RAZR, and i would rather not have push going all day for facebook and twitter...

When I go to "My Accounts" on my Droid Bionic, and then click on "Add account", I get the error message "Sorry! The application My Accounts (process com.motorola.setup) has stopped unexpectedly."
I wiped out my Bionic and then re-set everything up, and it was working fine until I added my FB account, and then removed the account. Now I can't add any new accounts at all.

I have three accounts on my phone for email. I have always received updates based on my gmail account.It worked that way on my Droid 1, and it still does on my Asus Transformer.All of a sudden, I'm getting reminders for updates on my other two email accounts.It will say "1 update on xxxx. 1 update on yyyy. 3 updates on gmail.I can't find a setting to get rid of the other accounts. The "account" item in the settings ask me to choose which account.The gmail account is chosen. The others aren't (radio button, can't have more than one even if I wanted that).

I used to be one of the $UCKER$ loyal customers who upgraded my phone acocunt to a BackFlip last July 2010. I hated it, and now they do not even stock it. Well, I lost the phone so they sent me a replacement since my BackFlip was something I was paying for the Warranty on. So like, I got myself a brand new FLIPSIDE in the mail to replace my lost phone! I wasn't sure what to think, since everyone in the AT&T store told me to ask for something comparable, but NOT ANOTHER MOTOROLA (although the Atrix looked sort of neat, being a 4G phone and all,Anyway, I got the phone and logged on with one of two MotoBlur accounts I have. I forget if it is the newer one or the older one, but either way, it seems that so far, this phone is much better than the BackFlip.
However, so far, each time I go into ACCOUNTS and try to add either my Facebook or my Twitter account, it fails every time, after sitting there saying "Adding Your Facebook Account..." for a very long time, the bar slightly moving. But then it fails. Epic Fail.So I can download the Apps off of Market and run Facebook and Twitter that way, and get my updates like that, but my AT&T Social Networking App is useless (off of Market), or the Updates app or the Happenings app that both come with the phone. Both are useless. All three are useless. I don't know why on Market if you go to ATT's site, they have a new Social Networking app, but I can't use it without adding the Facebook or Twitter accounts in the Account section of the phone, which it still fails to let me do.I have the phone set up and running nicely, and there have been no issues so far, except that it keeps running out of space on the tiny little MICRO SD card that came with the phone 2 GB. I assume that is the same with the BackFlip? But I NEVER ran out of space on the BackFlip. maybe I upgraded my SD card or something and just blanked on it, but I doubt it. But anyway, I have gotten all the major issues I had with the BackFlip solved with this phone, even though it certainly is not a great phone. I am thinking maybe I should just factory reset the phone and start over wtih a brand new MotoBlur account and see if that fixes it.... but I don't want to lose all my phone numbers. So I guess I need to know:
Is adding Social Networking accounts to the Accounts menu in the phone an issue with this phone? And if I had to waste all the time I put into this phone to do such a stupid thing, how would I backup all these phones and apps I do like? I love how the Live Wallpapers works on this phone over the BackFlip. But I also hate how the AT&T store I saw this phone at to report the phone lost or stolen (and was told I couldn't order a replacement there at the store, but call them on another phone.... I don't own another phone, not even a land line this IS my lifeline so I had my parents do it, wheeeee anyway, I have once lost the phone and had it replaced by going to the big new store in San Francisco, so this is a refurbished replacement phone, and I noticed even with another Motoblur account, it DID NOT FIX THE ACCOUNTS ISSUE -- so both my MotoBlur accounts have this issue) - the AT&T store doesn't STOCK this phone even anymore! That's how fast this stupid line of phones seems to have gone down the drain in about a year. Wow. And I started the "ADD ACCOUNT" for FACEBOOK in my ACCOUNTS section of the phone when I began typing up this forum message.Still shows the bar SLOWLY moving to the right but I am sure it will fail when it eventually gets tired. It does this every time. I just UNINSTALLED the FACEBOOK and TWITTER APPS that I got off of MARKET..Wow I got to format this entire message and it STILL IS TRYING TO ADD MY FACEBOOK ACCOUNT TO THE ACCOUNTS SECTION OF MY PHONE!! I am on WI-FI AS I DO THIS TOO. Oh yeah I guess that is IMPORTANT, TOO. I am using Wi-Fi as I do this, so I am not having any connectivity issues. Everything else works fine connective-wise. So how could my Apps work for the social networking but not the social networking accounts that are supposed to be built in features to this line of social connectivity phones??

I just bought an Electrify, and i have been unable to add any accounts to the social networking widget. I go to add an account to it, and i select facebook, and i enter my email and pass, and then it loads for a little bit, then i come to another screen where my password is already entered, but the email box is greyed out, and it wont let me go any further until i enter an email, but since the box is greyed out i cant do anything.

I currently have 5 email accounts tied to the combined (blur?) inbox on my phone. When I receive an email on a particular account, I can access it just fine through the notification bar. What I haven't been able to do is figure out (short of changing the primary account under settings), is how to seemlessly go from one account to another within the app.

Since my successful pushed software update, My Bionic has tried to download some update (that I have no idea what it is, I can't see it), the download failed two times. Now I am getting an Authentication Error from My E-Mail Provider.

I've heard that others have this issue too. I don't have the headphone wine, so I hate to bring this thing back if I don't need to. will it come in an update? Or, do I NEED to swap this handset out for a replacement while I am in the initial 14-day purchase window? Haven't seen anyone address those questions head on yet.

Has anyone else noticed their bionic popping up a notification at the bottom of their screen saying network error please check the network. It happens on mine just about everytime I make a call and hang up with someone. I just noticed that it started doing it within the last month. I have the latest update 5.9.902.

I've had my RAZR about a week coming from a Droid X, so I know this worked before.I have 2 corp sync accounts with my home broadband provider, Frontier. Initially, one of my accounts kept falling out of Push into Fetch.Last night I did a factory reset to see if that would help. Of course, to make things interesting, this morning I had the new firmware update waiting to be installed, so I let that go in.Strange enough, now both my accounts are falling from push to fetch. Im a long time DX user, so I'm sure I have my settings correct. When I run that "verify server" it comes back with "success" Doing some searching, I got a hit on the Bionic forum, but no resolution....[URL]

Over the past two days I began receiving a notification AOL "connection error". I do not believe this is an issue with AOL since other devices are not having the same problem. I tried a battery pull and factory data reset but the notification continues.

I added a couple of work emails and they both have the same image and name. Just email, is there any way to rename them to what they really are.
On my gmail account it shows Gmail under the envelope on the other two I have added so far it just the envelope and email.

My business email is hosted on a private server. My incoming mail comes through that server, of course, while my outgoing mail goes through Cox, my ISP. Problem is that while I can receive email with the native app on my DRIOID Bionic, I can't send email. Motorola telephone support helped me get it set up correctly (send and receive) with K9, but it's only receiving with the native app. (Support pretty much bailed at that point.) How can I get it to send also with the native app?

I am having a problem with my Droid Bionic. Whenever I try to view pictures, through the camera or gallery, I get an error message that reads, "Phone memory is full, not enough memory to start application. delete some files." Because of this, I have had no access to any of my pictures.
I have deleted many files and do not think there are more that can be deleted without losing things that I need. I have deleted some apps from the phone. How do I clear the cache on the phone?

I am getting through setting up my corporate sync> I can get through the following setup steps:
Open Applications tray, select My Accounts
Select Add Account
You will be at the Set-Up accounts menu with several other social network icons
Tap on Corporate Sync:
Enter: Domain nameuser name
Enter Password
Use secure server should be checked.
Enter Email address
Enter Exchange Server Address
Tap on Next to submit settings.
Handset will check with server and verify if successful. If you receive error could not auto detect server, touch OK to manually enter the server name. It then appears that I have connected to my exchange. I can then open up the email account settings and review/change the settings and I will always get the prompt that the update was successful. The connection error only appears when I open the account to check the inbox. The refresh symbol keeps spinning and eventually times out with the connection error.

I haven't used the lapdock in over a month.Recently attempted to connect and found I am unable.When I connect the lapdock it appears to connect normally, but then flashes back to the phone.While connected, the touch pad and keyboard are not functional. I also noticed I no longer get the options I use to when connecting (specifically no productivity mode).I have tried rebooting the phone, removing battery and repowering and reconnecting, no difference at all.

I tried searching the forums but could not find anything. When I try to uninstall an app through the market it just hangs on the uninstall page. I have the same result in the app menu on the phone itself. The only way to get the market and/or the app menu on the phone to get going again is to reboot. I tried booting into safe mode and uninstalling apps through settings (app menu) but it still just hangs on uninstalling.

I just bought this Bionic. I am familiar with the Droid OS. I have tried a factory reset, exporting contacts to SD card and importing, importing from Outlook, removing all contacts from GMail then syncing with Outlook, and just about every other thing I could find online to do. No where do I have the option of deleting all of my contacts and starting over.

Has anyone experienced this problem? I have five email accounts on my phone, four regular and one corporate. I have them all setup to check for mail every hour. Before the ICS update, they all worked fine on that schedule. After the ICS update, the corporate account still updates fine, but the other four do not. I changed them to update every half hour, but no change. They still do not update. If I go to the account and manually refresh it, it will download my emails.

I have caller ID blocking on my cell phone number, because, I do not want everyone I call to see my number. I have always had it set up that way. Numbers in my contact list, however, have *82 programed in front of the number so friends, etc. will know it is me calling. This works fine when I call a contact, but, when I try to text the same number, I get the error "The message must contain valid recipients and content" and am unable to send the text. If I manually enter the same number without the *82, I can send the text, but, nobody knows who it is from, because, my umber will not be revealed. This never happened on my original Droid (running 2.2.1). This is a real pain in the ..

I noticed that my yahoo mail account was not showing all of my mail messages within the last day. I have verified that my mail account is working fine via pc and was able to check via the web browser on my Bionic. I removed the account and now when I go to add it back via the add accounts and selecting the "Yahoo Mail" option, I can't get passed the e-mail address password screen. It sits there for a bit with "adding your Yahoo! Mail account" and then gives me the message of "Login to the accunt failed, please try again." I am using the correct password and have been able to add this account manually, which I don't prefer since the way I am trying gives me a different icon for Yahoo. Does anyone know why this is happening?? Like I said, Yahoo Mail just started acting up yesterday and now it won't work and play well with others using the pre-defined mail setup in the "Add Accounts" area for Yahoo! Mail.
