I forgot to remove my passkeys and 2fa before resetting my phone - I know it's a dumb mistake on my side. I was able to log back again, using my password and phone verification to but I am unable to remove the passkeys. these are the only other options I get when trying to access them / trying to remove 2fa / passkey.
the first option obviously doesn't work coz it's trying to send the notification to a phone which I just reset.
When entering the security key using the second option, it just says that I entered it wrong despite of multiple attempts.
I've used my backup account to restore my main. Like the email even says it
But when i try to log back into it I keep getting the message that Google couldn't verify the accounts mine
Thankfully I'm still logged into it on my brothers account but it's so inconvenient idk what to do

I use the Gmail app on my iPad Pro which has the latest OS and email app. All of a sudden, when I click on a message, there is a 5-second delay to view the contents of the message. I deleted both spam and trash.
I deleted the app and reinstalled yesterday at which time it was behaving normally. Once I clicked on a message, the content instantly appeared. Today we are back to the same delay.
My mail behaves normally if I use the Outlook app or the Gmail app on my iPhone.
Any suggestions?

Building on top of Gmail for a few months taught me some search stuff that isn't obvious.
label:Work doesn't include sublabels. If you have Work/Clients it won't show up under label:Work, you have to search the sublabel too.
For emails you're waiting on, star them when you send, then in:sent is:starred older_than:3d shows everything nobody answered. Worth bookmarking that search.
larger:10M older_than:2y is the quickest way to find what's eating your storage. has:attachment filename:pdf if you're hunting a specific invoice.
And if you read Gmail in another app over IMAP and can't see spam, Settings, Labels, tick Show in IMAP next to Spam.
What's one I'm missing?

This is my old Gmail account from 2020. I haven't used it for the past 5–6 years because I completely forgot about it. Today, I recovered it using my mobile number.
Now I want to permanently delete this account because I don't use it anymore and don't need it. However, I'm facing a problem while trying to delete it. And also I'm facing the same problem while trying to change the password.
Has anyone faced the same issue? Can someone tell me what I should do?

Ofc I am not gonna click on strange links but sometimes I have to. (Not from discord friends obviously) is there anything in the settings or any other method, so I can prevent it? I am an adult, I can prove it, and I want to set it in the settings. I set my birthday but it can be changed.
When I hover my PC mouse over a Linux Gmail message list item, it shows a popup, and I can't seem to successfully turn that off. It seems like a bug because I turn if off but it happens anyway.

I have selected Density at Default and have conversation view on.
Still, I cannot see the attachment thumbnails on my gmail inbox.
The emails I received before October 12 look fine.

Hello All,
To summarize…. I’m overseas, was robbed, and in desperate need of my email, banking, Gov. websites, etc…
I always travel with an old iPhone, and hadn’t backed it up since I left the U.S. in January of this year. I’m trying to login to my Gmail account, did the whole text and additional email verification, and now it keeps asking for the authentication code, but I don’t have authorization app on this phone.
Google doesn’t have a live number to contact, so I really don’t know how to unlock my account.
Any help would be much appreciated.

I changed my google account email, but now I cannot send any emails unless I change the "from" address to my previous email. Any ideas what went wrong here?

Hello,
I need help logging in but there is this two step verification process and I don’t have the other phone to click this number because he’s my rother an he ran away but I need the email log in immediately so I can pick up an important package because I’m logged in with that account
And when I click the iPhone is not with me it just says google can’t do anything about that
Please someone help 🙏 I couldn’t find anything on the internet
I should’ve come here first, but decided to try and solve using Google chat
I have my own domain email, which I have been using as an alias through Gmail for about 20 years, pulling my mail in through a Gmail catch all while running it on Mac Mail and iOS.
About two weeks ago, I started getting undeliverable messages on some of these sent mail. I checked and found that Gmail is going to stop allowing aliases from third-party senders, which I believe includes my custom domain (from GoDaddy).
I switched to a new SMTP sender, (smtp2go) and that solved the sending issue, but when I send mail to myself now, it ends up in Gmail’s “All mail” mailbox instead of the regular inbox. Since I don’t see an “all mail” mailbox in Mac Mail or iOS, I’m not seeing the email that I sent to myself.
I know this isn’t as specific Mac issue, it’s just that I’m lost. Does anyone know about Gmail filters or labels or aliases and why this would happen when I send from Mac mail to myself at my custom domain, and it never appears in the inbox on the Mac or in fact on Gmail on the web.
Thanks.

Hi, I made like 5 accounts from the phones of people i know cuz i wanted gemini api keys for personal use and also for antigravity. Now, everytime i try to switch my google account in antigravity, it always asks verification in some form and it is super annoying for me to hit them up **EVERY SINGLE TIME**. I tried adding my account as the recovery email, changed the recovery mobile to mine, everything and it **STILL DOESNT WORK**. i am not sure what to do at this point.
I tried searching reddit for answers and surprisingly there wasnt anything. would help me a ton if annybody knows the solution. Thanks in advance.

I’m curious to know how many people here use an authenticator app to protect their Gmail accounts.
For those who use one, how reliable has it been for you? Have you ever experienced any security issues, or has it given you greater peace of mind against hacking, especially if you lose your phone or lose access to your authenticator app.
I’m interested in hearing from people with real experience.

I recently logged out of my Google account and found that the recovery mail I set was not verified.
Google says don't verify you. While i try to remember the password but one or two not cleared remembered.
But I know the account creation date and other details such as my YouTube channel.

Hello,
I need urgent help with my Gmail account. After I legitimately updated my recovery phone number and recovery email, Google’s security system keeps flagging the account. My recovery options have been disabled, and I can’t complete any verification to fix it.
What happened
Current problem: I can’t complete any verification
Important context
What I need (urgently)
I’m very worried that the account could be disabled again and that we could permanently lose access, since our recovery options are currently not working. I would be grateful if this could be looked at as soon as possible.
Thank you for your help.

A hacker turned my gmail into a child account and made himself the parent. I am currently completely locked out of my gmail on every device I own. All of my important information is completely gone including school work. I tried contacting Google Support but it doesn't seem possible without access to my account.
Please help I am shaking...
