  1. Timeout when trying to connect to any google account site: Gmail, calendar, or google...


    I can't access gmail, calendar, or google account. Every time the connection times out.


    I get ERR_CONECTION_TIMED_OUT or something similar.


    It works on Some computers on my network (laptop, other PC (sometimes) but not my main PC. I also can't access google accounts from Microsoft Edge.


    I've tried:

    Logging out of Google account - can't log back in (webpage won't load)

    Deleting cache, cookies, history

    Trying in an incognito window

    Accessing from command prompt ('connection timed out")

    Downloading and re-installing Chrome

    Unplugging Router and Modem

    Turning off VPN

    Changing home network from public to private and back

    Checking Antivirus (Norton) to see if there's anything being blocked, or flagged.

    I'm seriously at my wit's end. I can get on the main google search page, and YouTube, I just can't access my google account from my main computer.

    :)

    Google account (mail / calendar) not syncing in Windows 10

    I'm having a problem with the default Mail and Calendar apps in Windows 10. For a while I was able to sync my Google account emails (Gmail) and calendar in those apps, but about a week ago, it has stopped working: the calendar is empty (no events, and no calendars listed), and the emails that were already synced are still there, but syncing doesn't bring any new email.

    I tried deleting my Google account from the mail (or calendar) app, by going to "settings -> accounts", and then re-creating the account. I did that three times. Each time I was able to complete the following steps:

    1. enter my Gmail address,
    2. then my Google account password,
    3. then the confirmation code sent by SMS,
    4. and finally got to the screen "Windows would like to..." (permissions listing), on which I clicked "Accept" (obviously).

    The first time, I then got a Windows message "Something went wrong", followed by an error code (I didn't write it down).

    The second time, I didn't get this error message, so it looked like the account was successfully created (it appeared in my accounts list in the settings of those apps), but nothing was synced: both apps (mail / calendar) remained empty. (I tried syncing manually by clicking the sync button in the mail app: still nothing, even though the app confirmed that it was "up to date".)

    For my third attempt, I had found this question, so I went and created an "app password" in my Google account, specifically for those apps. But when I got to the password screen (step 2 described above) and entered this app password instead of my regular account password, I got an error message (from Google) asking me to enter my account password and not an app password. So I did that, and that got me exactly the same result as my second attempt (account created but nothing synced).

    I also tried both answers given on the same question (first via "settings > accounts > add account > Other account", and second via "settings > accounts > add account > Advanced setup"), but none of them worked for me (again, account created but nothing synced).

    Has anyone experienced the same problems? How can I make this work?

    UPDATE: a few months back (early October 2015) I received an email from Microsoft inviting me to "reconnect to Google" (that was the title of the email). I ignored it for a while, but recently followed the steps in this email and now everything seems to be working fine. So I'm guessing that MS somehow fixed whatever bug it was.

    synching Windows 10 Calendar with gmail Google calendar

    I use the Windows 10 Calendar on my PC, and the Google Calendar on my gmail account as well as my Android phone. I am trying to synch all 3. Hwere is what is happening so far:

    • My gmail calendar and my phone sync well, both ways.
    • events i enter on my gmail calendar show up on my PC calendar
    • Events that I enter into my PC calendar do NOT show up on my gmail calendar, and therefore not on my cell phone either
    On my PC calendar, I have gone into Settings-Manage Accounts, and switched my gmail calendar OFF and then back ON. From there I also deleted my gmail account, and put it back in. no change. Should I give up and just install Google Calendar on my PC?

    Google calendar sync no longer working

    I also have this problem following the Mango update yesterday. I tried deleting the google account from my phone and then recreating it. The issue is still there but now I no longer have any calendar information in my phone.

    I haven't tried the gmail suggestion above so that will be my next step.
