How do I sign in to my gmail email

Hi Richard
following is a cut & past information from Google and I hope it helps in your quest.

Adding Gmail
If you add Gmail to your Google Account, your account's primary username will permanently change to yourusername@gmail.com.
After you add Gmail, the original email address associated with your account will become your alternate email address. If you have verified your original email address before adding Gmail, you will be able to sign in using this email address.

Adding Gmail to an existing Google Account

1. Go to mail.google.com.
2. Click Sign up for Gmail.
3. At the top of the page, click If you already have a Google Account, you can sign in here. You'll be redirected to a sign-in page.
4. Use your existing Google Account username and password to sign in. On the next page, you'll see a shortened Gmail sign-up form where you can choose your Gmail username

I hope this helps.

• Go to http://mail.google.com
• Click on "Need Help"
• Select "I don't know my password"
• You then need to enter either your Gmail email address or elsea non-Gmail email address you had notified Gmail about when you first signed up.
• If you select the Gmail address you then need to answer some questions you had previously set up.

Good luck. This does work

Well first you must take off your purple helmet LOL.

Every email account is associated with a website or an email app, connecting to an email server, like Yahoo or Gmail etc. You would first start that app or website up and sign in.

If you don't yet have an email account anywhere to sign into, that means you also don't have an email address, for instance "[email protected]". People need to know such an address to send you mail.

Let's say you were using Gmail as a provider, as above. Open Google and go to Gmail in the search bar or in the options (Google owns Gmail). Sign in there and you will see your Inbox with anything sent to you.

If you have a tablet or smartphone you may have to install an app from you chosen email provider so it can communicate with the email server and show you your stuff in a smart interface.

I don't know that any email app is any better by far, just use that one your friends like the most, that will smooth things out.

And remember, when on your bike, no texting LOL

You can combine multiple Gmail accounts into a single, primary Gmail account by using the POP3 Mail Fetcher application built into Gmail.
The Mail Fetcher enables you to retrieve email from POP3 email accounts, including Gmail, and send mail as if from a different email address all from within your primary Gmail account. Configure your primary account to manage your other Gmail accounts with the Mail Fetcher.

Sign in to the Gmail account that you want to use to manage your Gmail accounts.
Click the "Settings" icon, represented by a gear cog, in the top left and click "Mail Settings."

Click the "Accounts and Import" tab.
Click the "Add POP3 Email Account" button.
Enter the email address of your secondary email account and then click "Next Step."
Enter the password of your secondary email account and then click "Add Account."
Click the radio button beside "Yes, I want to be able to send email as
[SECONDARY EMAIL ADDRESS]" and then click "Next Step."
Enter the display name for your secondary email address and then click "Next Step."
Click "Send Verification" and then check your secondary email account.
Click the link contained in the verification email to confirm the integration of that account with your primary Gmail account.
All mail sent to your secondary Gmail is now delivered to your primary account, and when responding your secondary Gmail address is displayed in the From section of the email.
