I'm currently unable to log into my gmail account

Try these steps:

• log into your gmail account
• click on the icon (or your profile photo) in the opper RH corner and click on the "account" link
• Under the "personal info" tab, click on "edit profile"
• Click on the "edit" link under contact info to change phone number
• As you scroll down, you'll see a box that says "details from Google Contacts". Click on the "edit" link to edit your name

Hope that helps!

you have to log out of your account and then you will be able to log on under a different account

Point your web browser at http://www.gmail.com

If another account comes up, sign out of it by clicking the avatar in the upper-right then clicking "Sign out."

If you then still can't sign in to your account, click the "Need help?" link on the sign-in page.

Are you using google chrome.??
You may be prevented from accessing your Gmail account in the Google Chrome browser for a number of reasons.

Although both programs are Google products, there may be a firewall, browser or software conflict causing the Gmail page not to load.

Going through a few basic troubleshooting steps can usually clear up the matter and get you back into your Gmail account.

Click the "Wrench" icon at the top-right corner of the browser window and select "Options" from the menu.

Go to the "Under the Hood" section.
Click the "Clear Browsing Data" button near the top of the options page.

A popup window appears.
Check the boxes for "Empty the Cache" and "Delete Cookies and Other Site and Plug-in Data."

Change the "Obliterate the Following Items From" to "The Beginning of Time" option, then click the "Clear Browsing Data" button.

Clearing out the browser's stored files often helps to make websites load properly and perform better.


Check your firewall settings. Click the "Start" button and type "Firewall" into the search box.

Click "Windows Firewall." In the application, click the "Allow a Program or Feature Through Windows Firewall" from the left column.

Check the box for "Chrome.exe" from the program list.
When done, click the "OK" button.

You may have other firewall software installed, so check those settings if necessary to allow Google Chrome full access to the Internet.

Disable browser extensions. Periodically, an extension may cause a conflict in the browser and prevent you from loading Gmail properly or entirely.

Click the "Wrench" icon at the upper-right corner of the window, go to the "Tools" menu and select "Extensions."

Click the "Disable" link for any Gmail-specific extensions, such as "Better Gmail" or "Google Mail Checker."

If Gmail still doesn't load, temporarily disable all extensions one by one until it works. Log into Gmail using a non-secure connection.

For example, if you normally use the secure connection or "https" prefix, then you want to type "http://mail.google.com/mail" for the website address.

If you already use the non-secure connection, try using the secure connection by typing "https://mail.google.com/mail" instead for the address.


Try a different browser other than Google Chrome to see if the problem lies with Gmail.

The Gmail servers may be experiencing difficulties for a wide number of users or just specifically your account. Sometimes troubleshooting the browser or firewall software will not correct the issue.

If the problem still persists on a different browser or computer system, then wait a while before attempting to access Gmail again.

The loading issue may be resolved by then.

You can enable offline mode for your Gmail account, which links it to your hard drive where it stores messages.
Not all browsers and operating systems are supported, including Safari 4 on a Mac running the Snow Leopard OS and Google Chrome on all platforms.
Also, if you have enabled the multiple account sign-in, the offline reading feature is unavailable. Multi-account sign-in is a feature that lets you stay logged in to more than one Gmail account simultaneously.
Gmail offline mode requires that you install the Google Gears plugin that handles the processing and storing of emails on your local hard drive.
Open a Web browser and sign into your Gmail account.
Click the "Gear" icon on the upper right corner of the page and select "Mail Settings."

Go to the "Offline" tab and click the "Enable Offline Mail for this computer" button.
Click the "Save Changes" button.

Click the "Allow" link when Google Gears asks for permission to access your Gmail account. Once Google Gears receives permission, it may take several minutes for the messages to be downloaded to your computer.
Click and drag the Gmail favicon on the address bar to the desktop screen.
Moving and dropping the icon creates a desktop shortcut for your Gmail account.
If you click the "Gmail" desktop icon, then it will load your Gmail account, regardless if you are online or offline.

Clicking the Google Chrome icon will always just open the Chrome browser. Once you have the browser open, type http://gmail.com into the address bar and you will then be directed to Gmail where you can sign in and check your email.

Hope that helps!
