If, when trying to log into Gmail mail (whether from a computer or mobile device) you're having problems or seeing the message "Add Gmail to your Google account" and "Name is already taken. Try something else", this article should help you solve this problem.

The reasons that you cannot enter the mail from Google may be different, and therefore I will give several possible solutions, and I hope to help all those who are here and read this instruction.

If it worked, great, if not, read on:

  1. Go to the following link: Sign in to Gmail
  2. A Gmail login form will appear with one of your addresses already entered. And below is the link "Log in to another account" or "Sing in with a different account"(if you have in English) - click on it.
  3. After that, all your addresses will be displayed, including the one that is needed. Select an address, enter a password, and log into your mailbox. If an empty login form appears instead of addresses, then enter the required address, password and log in.

This option is also possible if a window appears when you try to enter the mail Add Gmail to your Google account and the message “This name is already taken. Try something else."

On the same page, where “The name is already taken” answers you, there is a circle with a little man in the upper right corner (or with your avatar). Click on it and select Add account. Next, enter your address, password and click Login.

Account Information

I think it will not be superfluous to make sure once again that you enter all the data necessary to enter the mail correctly. Passwords are very case sensitive, so make sure you don't have the " cap lock". Also check if the username is correct. address Email, which is written up to @gmail.com.

If you still don't have google account you need to start it first. To do this, we recommend that you go to the lesson After you create an account, go back and read this lesson to the end to learn how to log into Gmail and set it up.

Update from 14.02.2016 If you cannot log into your mail, then I wrote about how to solve this problem.

Gmail.com mail - login

Logging into Gmail is very easy. Immediately after creating an account, you will be automatically authorized, that is, you will enter it. However, you will always need to log in and out of your account when you're done. Logging out is especially important if you use a shared computer (for example, in a library or office). This simple action will protect your letters from prying eyes.

Note: Article updated June 13, 2015 . There are people who experience some difficulties when entering the mail. We did not find detailed and accurate information why they fail. We also tried to login with different computers with different operating systems— there were no problems, everything is standard. Therefore, we have come to the conclusion that those who are unable to log in are doing something wrong. Perhaps you are confusing Gmail.ru and Gmail.com services. The first has nothing to do with Google, including Gmail.com, they are two different email services, so don't get confused. Also keep in mind that Gmail.com is a product of Google, so it's okay if the Gmail.com page redirects to Google page. We also noticed some small changes, so we updated the article with all the images. Follow the steps below to sign in to Google mail. Should work without problems. If not, then write in the comments, but in detail.

To enter mail:

To log out of mail:

  • In the top right corner, click on your photo and select Sign out.

Mail settings

There will come a time when you want to customize appearance or the "behavior" of your mail. For example, you can create a signature, change labels or change the theme. All this can be done in the Gmail settings of the mail.

To go to settings:

  • Here you can select the category you want to change.

Adding contacts

Gmail lets you save contacts to your address book so you don't have to keep email addresses in your head. You can also save additional contact information: phone numbers, birthdays and addresses.

To add a contact:

  1. From the Gmail dropdown menu, select Contacts.

  • The contact page will appear. Click New Contact.

  • Enter the person's name and email address mail. You can also enter additional contact information. All changes will be automatically saved.

To change a contact:

  1. On the left menu bar, click My Contacts.

  • Click on the contact you want to edit.
  • Now you can make any changes to the contact information.

By default, when you send an email to new address e-mail, Gmail adds this address to contacts. You can edit this information by going to Contacts.

Import mail and contacts

Perhaps you already have a list of contacts in another mailbox, and it will take a long time to manually transfer it to a new mailbox. Gmail allows you to import contacts from other email accounts, and you can even import all of your emails. You can import mail and contacts from many mail services, such as Yandex, Mail.

To import from another mail:

  1. Click on the gear icon in the upper right corner of the page and select Settings.
  2. Go to the Accounts category and click on the Check mail from other accounts (using POP3) button. By following the instructions on the screen, you will be able to import your mail.

Hello, dear readers of the blog site. Today I want to talk about free service e-mail Gmail.com. The main feature of this mailbox is a stunningly convenient and functional web interface.

It is, perhaps, in no way inferior to stationary mail programs, but at the same time it will be available from absolutely any device that can access the Internet. Therefore, using the Gmail box, you can safely forget about such a thing as synchronization.

Besides, Google mail has one of the best (if not the best) spam cutter in the world (it is because of it that I collect correspondence in this box with, and other services that do not fight spam in any way), allows you to automatically sort correspondence by dozens different ways, mark letters, import them from any, and also knows how to remove and send correspondence from dozens of mailboxes that you already have, and even so that your opponent does not suspect substitution.

Plus, work on a secure protocol and warnings about access to your mailbox from other IPs - which could be cooler. Probably nothing, so in this article I will try to break Gmail apart and show all its features with examples. Don't switch.

By the way, most recently it came out on top in the world, overtaking another popular mail service called . However, in Russia it is the undisputed leader, although it does not have any outstanding functionality (it just appeared earlier).

Registering and creating a mailbox in Gmail

Let's start with the banal, but in need of some comments, registration of a mailbox on Gmail. Addresses must be distinguished Gmail.com and Gmail.ru. Historically, the s.ru service at the end appeared before the Jimail mail service, and Google could not get this domain (although, it seems that they came out last year). For example, about ten years ago I almost bought into this incident, because gmail.ru also had a free mail service.

How to create a google mail account

Actually, getting a mailbox is nice bonus when creating an account. If you are now go to jimail page without having an account in Google, then you will be offered to correct this misunderstanding:

Clicking on the button "Create an account", you will be taken to a page with a web form that you will need to fill out very carefully. Due to the huge popularity of Gmail, it is quite difficult on it, but nevertheless, having shown imagination, it will be possible to pick up something suitable.

For example, you can insert dots in the title, which means that it is acceptable to use the domain name of your site, which is very likely to be unoccupied:

Please note that the reliability of the information you provide must correspond to the tasks that you will assign to this particular mailbox. Of course, Gmail.com mail is very well protected from hacking (work is carried out through an encrypted https protocol), but no one canceled the human factor.

For example, the simplicity of the password I once invented for my gmail mailbox became the reason for its hacking and the subsequent theft of money from my e-wallet in the WebMoney system. I registered this email in ancient times, when I didn’t even think about it, so I chose a surprisingly complex QWERTY password. Now, which gives a certain amount of peace.

You also need to understand that an unrealistic alternative E-mail address or phone number can play a cruel joke with you, because they could help you restore access to your account in case you lose your password or your mailbox is hacked with various g-nukes:

AT SMS message you will receive a confirmation code on the mobile phone specified during registration, which you will need to enter to complete the registration (unfortunately, it will not work without a phone to create a jmail.com account).

Then fill in all the fields, click on the "Accept" button to agree to the terms of the box and send the data. You will be prompted to scroll through a small slider “Young fighter course from Gmail”, and at the last step there will be a button to enter the web interface for managing your mailbox - “Go to Gmail”.

Logging in and getting to know the Gmail interface

If you already have a Google account, then in the mail you you can always log in from any page of any Google service, simply clicked on the button next to his name in the upper right corner:

Well, or just by typing in the address bar of your browser gmail.com and pressing Enter.

Jimail interface quite understandable and familiar (it has not undergone significant changes for quite a long time, which, in my opinion, is buzzing, because there is no need to solve another rebus on the topic - “where is it now?”):

It has been around for quite some time separation of correspondence to Unsorted, Social, and Promotions (above the inbox). If you click on the plus sign next to it, you can also add "Notifications" and "Forums".

If you don’t need this sorting (like me), then simply uncheck the unnecessary checkboxes on the Inbox tab in the settings (the six in the upper right corner - “Settings”):

When you first enter G-Mile, you will immediately be shown that although your account has been created, there is still something to add and configure to it. In particular, you will be prompted to promptly set up mail import from mailboxes you already have (both in G-mail and in other similar services). We will talk about this in detail below.

You will also be prompted to quickly add a photo to your account and, if desired, choose a different theme. You can really do this right now, because everything is implemented in just two clicks (do not get lost).

Google Mail now has a new mail interface for everyone

Recently, Google Mail has been actively promoting its new interface . You can try it by clicking on the settings button (gear in the upper right corner) and selecting the first item "Try new version g-mail.

While it is under testing and is not used by default. There are not many striking differences, but you still have to get used to it.

If you wish, you can return back to the old interface, and you can also configure the location of letters in the new Gmail by clicking on the "Interface" button in the settings drop-down menu. Three options are offered, differing from each other mainly between compactness and clarity:

I have still remained on the old interface (and I will show everything using its example), but you are free to choose for yourself (I think that by analogy you will understand my screenshots).

When loading the mailbox web interface, your browser is checked to see if it supports all this beauty, and if a discrepancy is found, the good old Html version will be loaded. Although you yourself, in case of a long loading of a new frame, you can switch to the retro interface:

By default, you are offered a mailbox about 15 GB in size(however, this is not only for one mail, but also for yours, and), but if you wish, you can already pay for increase this limit.

Those few letters that will already be present in your inbox talk about some of the features of Gmail (for example, importing contacts and letters from any mail service you previously used) and about the charms.

Pros and cons of Gmail, security settings

What is remarkable, by registering a mailbox on Gmail, you are not obliged to give up all the others that you have received for your long life on the Internet. It is possible to set up receiving and sending mail to them from the Google mail interface. It is very convenient, and I have been using it successfully for a long time (we will talk more about the necessary settings below).

Gmail - an online service that is not inferior to the convenience of email programs

Also, one of the messages that came by default will talk about the convenience of using Gmail on mobile phones using a proprietary application. In general, the use to work with mail is the web interface, and not a desktop program, has one huge plus - you no longer need to synchronize your various mail programs on various devices(stationary PC, laptop, phone, tablet, etc.).

The web interface will be an excellent universal solution, but only if it allows you to implement all the goodies that abound in e-mail programs. And, of course, Google is striving with all its might, together with its wonderful Jimail, to become this ideal option, and, frankly, they are doing it very well.

At the beginning of its journey, Google Mail was at the epicenter of the scandal precisely because of the ads that appeared with contextual advertising(having your own site, you can, by the way, too) and not because of the irritation caused by its display. No. It's just that the theme of contextual ads, in its ideology, corresponds to the text that takes place in this message. And this meant that the system reads our letters, which caused an uproar.

But over time, all the goodies that Google gave users of their free email outweighed the negative of invading their personal space. In short, we were bought. Sometimes, however, the thought comes to mind that this corporation is gradually becoming an "empire of good", and moreover, how beautifully it all began (read in my presentation). However, back to our sheep.

Let's talk about now security of work with your mailbox. I advise you to immediately get into the settings for this purpose (find the gear in the upper right area and select from it context menu item Settings):

Immediately notice the link located in the footer (bottom) of the Gmail web interface called " Additional Information". There you can track or set up an alert for suspicious access to your mailbox.

Protecting the entrance to your Jimail mail

If the data stored or received in your mail account is of the utmost importance, then you can sacrifice the simplicity of working with the mailbox and set it up (using a password and a confirmation code sent to your mobile phone). You can do this on the page Security and entry"of your Google account:

There is never too much security, and the main thing is to take care of it before, and not after, the thunder has struck (learn from my mistakes). Well, I’ll still briefly describe all the opportunities that this double security system provides. So, 2-Step Verification in Gmail allows you to do the following:

Passwords for applications to access your mail from any device

If you are using any email reader applications on your desktop computer or mobile phone (tablet), then after activating two-step authentication, these same applications will not be able to access your mailbox. What to do?

There is a way out and it is quite simple. You will need in the area Application Passwords(See the screenshot above - located on the page "Security and Login") click on the spoiler. The page that opens will list the applications that already have access to your Gmail account (by the way, you can disable them if necessary).

And at the very bottom, it will be possible to set a password for any application to access Jimail's mail (it doesn't matter, mobile or stationary, for example, an email client).

First, select the Google application from the drop-down list that you want to log in to (mail, YouTube, or another), then select the device from which you want to log in from the second list, and click on the "Create" button. As a result, you will receive a password for this application and instructions for its use:

All that remains is to go to the settings of the mobile or stationary application in order to change the Gmail access password to the newly generated one.

In my opinion, everything is very simple and convenient. Personally, I am very happy with this opportunity. keep your mailbox as secure as possible from encroachments of all sorts of radishes seeking to steal money, websites and other material and virtual values. Kudos to the developers for this.

Well, now let's deal with the features of Jimail mail and the settings of this miracle of programmer thought for ourselves and our habits.

Shortcuts (folders) and their settings in Gmail

To sort correspondence in Gmail, we use labels and filters. The latter allow automatic mode to scatter letters on different folders (shortcuts) according to given criteria. The label, in fact, is very close to the usual concept of a folder, but has more features. By default, Google offers you a certain set of shortcuts and folders, which are located in the left column. But we are free to customize everything to our needs.

How to create a shortcut in google mail

First, you will probably need to go to the settings (Gear - Settings) and on the second tab, by activating "yes" or "no", configure the display of the left menu items (some shortcuts can not only be disabled, but also deleted).

There will also be an opportunity to create a new one using the corresponding button. Create label in Gmail you can also when viewing a letter (from the context menu of the icon called "Labels" on the top panel):

In general, I don’t really understand these icons, so for more information and clarity, you can check the “Text” option in the settings on the “General” tab in the “Button labels” area.

After that, instead of mysterious icons on the top panel of the G-Mail, understandable inscriptions will flaunt:

As you can see from the above screenshot, in fact, even the Inbox folder is a shortcut. In Gmail, labels can be nested (previously, this required installing an add-on from the Lab), which gives even more options for targeting cymus.

How to customize appearance and use shortcuts

Created labels should be observed in the left menu(there will appear, as it were, additional directories with the names of the shortcuts), and their configuration or removal is easy to do by clicking on the arrow button that appears on the right (the left arrow opens the list of nested shortcuts, if any) when you hover over any of them in your mailbox:

A context menu will open, where you will be prompted to select a color for this label, as well as make a number of additional settings:

Now, after assigning a unique color, when viewing incoming messages in Jimail, you can very easily see what labels they are marked with.

Although, in my opinion, it is best to configure the filters to automatically delete messages from the inbox if they meet any condition for moving under the label (there is no need to litter the inbox - only unfiltered messages will be there):

When viewing this letter, you will also have the opportunity, if necessary, to remove unnecessary labels with a cross:

Removing the Inbox Label sends a letter to the archive, but it will still be available in other labels (folders, in other words) it has. And, of course, in the "All Mail" folder you can always find them safe and sound. Okay, at first it’s hard to figure this out, but you can imagine all this shamanism as creating the folders you need in the future. There is an opportunity if necessary, but this is already a last resort.

It is clear that when reading messages, you will be able to manually assign them to a particular shortcut (in other words, put them in folders) using the button of the same name located at the top and its context menu. In fact, in this way you can manually scatter letters from your mailbox in Jimail to the folders you need and pre-created. However, this is a dreary business and, if possible, I would like to automate the routine.

Filters in Jimail and a detailed example of their use

How to do it? With the help of a second tool, codenamed google mail filters. These miracle filters are available in the settings (from the gear menu) on the corresponding tab. There you will see the filters you have already created (if any) and a link that allows you to create a new perfect example of unbreakable logic (called Create a new filter).

In the window that opens, you need to turn on the logic and try to set an unambiguous algorithm by which Gmail will filter the correspondence you need. If someone has used desktop mail programs before, then there will be no problems with this.

If the filter doesn't work, you can always fix it. You can filter, for example, by the subject of the letter, by specific terms found in it, by the address of the sender or recipient (if the message is sent to Jimail mail from your other mailbox).

At the next step of the filter creation wizard, you will be prompted to assign the fate of those unfortunate letters that will be filtered in accordance with the algorithm you specified. For the given example with filtering mailings that came from the left mailbox, you need to check the boxes in accordance with the screenshot:

let's Let's analyze an example of this Gmail filter:

All. Build a filter, test it for proficiency, fix bugs, and enjoy the cleanliness and order in your correspondence on the most amazing web-based email client.

Import addresses and letters to Gmail, collect mail from other mailboxes

Now let's assume that my agitation for Soviet power had an effect and you were imbued with the idea moving to gmail with all his belongings, i.e. with accumulated contacts and tons of letters. To do this will not be so difficult at all, although not very quickly (even with unlimited Google capacities, transferring an array of correspondence can take up to two days). However, all this will be done automatically, and you will only need a little patience in making the necessary settings.

In addition, in fact, a complete move with all the property to Jimail, this email service will allow you to use all your mailboxes that have accumulated over a long time to the fullest, and your opponents who will send messages to them will not even notice that you are no longer there. live (responses to their letters will come with the same return address to which they wrote). It's actually a great thing, and it also works great.

Import contacts to Jmail from your other mailboxes

All settings are made on the tab "Accounts and Import". In the "Import mail and contacts" area, you need to click on the link shown in the screenshot:

Import is supported from a huge number of mail services, a list of which you can see on this page. At the first step of the wizard, you will be asked where Google will pick up contacts and messages, and at the second step you will be required to enter the password for that box.

After clicking the "Import" button, you will be notified that this is not a quick matter. You can make sure that the process is over in the Google mail settings at the path indicated in the screenshot:

You can teach Google to drag chestnuts out of the fire (letters to Gmail from your other email services), but in this case the collection will be carried out not in real time, but episodically with an interval of one hour. If it is the speed of collecting correspondence that is critical for you, then it is better do the reverse operation- go to the settings of those same third-party accounts and add forwarding of all mail to Google in them.

Forwarding mail from other mailboxes to Jemail

Well, it’s also probably worth mentioning that in the Gmail settings on the tab Forwarding and POP/IMAP you can set the forwarding of all incoming correspondence from your new Google mailbox to your current main mail account.

And if you are used to using a desktop program to work with mail, you can, if necessary, disable the POP protocol and enable a more advanced one. IMAP to pick up correspondence and read it on your computer.

Useful Settings and Gmail Lab

Among all the possible Gmail settings (Gear - Settings), we have not considered the “chat” tabs (which I don’t use and don’t know what to say about them), as well as the settings for enabling the smart mode of dividing inboxes into important and unimportant ones on the Inbox tab ", well, the tab "Topics", where it will be possible to pull on the web interface the skin that is most pleasing to your eye:

By and large, there is nothing interesting there.

Let's see if we have anything left unattended on "General" tab of Jimail settings:

  1. Interface language - well, there's nothing to talk about.
  2. The maximum page size is the number of letters (chains, which, by the way, are an amazing Google invention - all correspondence with the same user combined into one chain, where you can remember the essence of the matter) and contacts (available from the drop-down list of the Gmail button located above the left list - I advise you to add to all your contacts in the photo settings or for chic).
  3. Chains of letters - you can turn off the wonderful feature described just above, but I assure you, you should not.
  4. Keyboard shortcuts are disabled by default, but it is possible that constant work with mail will become more convenient when it is activated. The list of hotkeys can be seen on this page.
  5. Desktop notifications - if you work with Gmail from under Chrome, you can enable this feature, and when fresh messages arrive, a pop-up window will appear in the lower right area of ​​​​the screen with information about this extraordinary event.
  6. Signature - if you don’t want to write “Respectfully, Dmitry Petrovich!” at the end every time, then just fill it out once a general settings and given template will be automatically inserted into all the letters you send.
  7. Auto-responder - you probably received an almost instant response with general words in response to your letters (I'm not here right now, but I will definitely answer). This is the answering machine. Stuff like this just pisses me off.

All other settings have either already been considered by us above, or do not deserve to be said about them. So, trifles, which, however, may seem useful to someone.

Laboratory and advanced settings in Jmail

Let's move on to the yet untouched by us, but nevertheless, probably the most interesting tab from settings - Laboratory.

True, it is present only in the settings of the old interface, and in the new one, a tab is placed instead of it. "Advanced". Some of what could be included in the "Lab" is now available there (in the new interface).

But in the new interface, there is still an opportunity on the “General” tab to check the box “Enable access to experimental features” and after saving the settings, they should, in theory, appear on this very “General” tab. But I have not noticed any changes from setting this checkbox yet.

In general, Google mail was born in 2004 and was in beta until 2009. During this time, the "Laboratory" has taken root and has become the main source of innovation in this by far the best online mail client.

I have repeatedly observed that add-ons from the "Lab" over time took place in the main settings. Apparently, Gmail, in this way, runs in new features and issues a verdict on their implementation based on the collected statistics of their popularity (this is similar to a test browser, in which successful developments are then implemented into the main project -). Well done, what can I say.

But let's see what interesting things are being tested in the "lab" now, although if you read this article after a while, you will not find much there. I will only consider what I use in my account (I ask you not to kick much for this). So, what useful little things can you attach to your inbox on Gmail.com:

  1. Icon unread messages - a small but pleasant trifle. After activating this function, the number of newly received messages will be displayed in the tab of your browser where Google mail is open. It probably won't be too much.

  2. View area- this cartoon seemed to me extremely convenient, because I am slowly switching to Gmail from an email client integrated into Opera, where everything is organized that way. Now the window for viewing the list of messages can be pushed out and in the vacated area you can view the contents of the selected letter. Comfortable.

    Activate, save the settings and, after going to the mail list view, take a look at the top panel, you will see a new button that will allow you to adjust the screen split vertically (shown in one of the above screenshots), horizontally or not at all:

  3. Response Templates- I use it often so as not to type a message every time again. Quite convenient, but requires a little initial setup. First activate this cartoon, and then open the dialogue for writing and replying to the letter. Did you see an arrow at the end at the bottom?

    First, go to the only item from the "Response Templates" context menu and name the future template. Then, in the field for writing a letter, enter the text of the future stamp and highlight it completely. From the Preset Answers context menu, now select the name of your template, but only what is in the Save area:


  4. Custom keyboard shortcuts - I don’t use it yet, but it’s a rather interesting option that allows you to assign the most frequent operations to hotkeys.

I also forgot to mention that in some browsers (in Chrome and Firefox for sure) you will have the opportunity to make an online mail client jimail default program on your computer, which will have . This is very convenient if you are imbued with this client and do not think of working in any mail program. When you open the mail web interface in Chrome, a line will appear at the top of it with a suggestion to commit an act of vandalism, described just above:

Until you answer "Yes" or "No", this inscription will not stop haunting you.

Good luck to you! See you soon on the blog pages site

How to create an email - what is it, how and where to register and which email to choose (mailbox)

Gmail.com (jimeil or gmail) is the world's largest email site. It belongs to the Google search engine and here you can create a box for free, and also get a Google account with it. And, therefore, the Disk, YouTube, Google Play, access to other services.

one . Open gmail.com. Click on "Create an account" at the bottom.

2. Fill out the form on the right side.

First name and last name. Here you need to specify your data, preferably real. After all, if you suddenly have difficulties in the future with entering the box, then thanks to this information it will be possible to return access. If desired, this data can then be hidden.

Username. A very important field - this will be the name of your mailbox (login). It should consist only of English letters, you can also use numbers and dots. It just needs to be designed and printed.

This is the email address where the emails will be sent. This is what you will need to tell the person so that he can send you something.

Username selection can be problematic. The fact is that each such login is unique - it belongs to only one person. And a lot of names are already registered, which means you can't choose them.

Let's say I want to get the login umnik . I type it in the field and press the Enter button on the keyboard. The system does not allow such a name - it says it is too short.

Okay, so I add a couple more letters and press Enter. But Google again does not like it: it turns out that such a name is already taken by someone.

Just below the system shows logins that are free for registration. Google automatically added them from my first and last name, and also added something similar to what I came up with.

You can choose any of them. But I advise you to work a little more and pick up something better - shorter and easier to remember. The fact is that this name can no longer be changed.

Of course, you can then register another mailbox, set up forwarding letters to it from the old address. But why such difficulties, if you can immediately choose a normal name.

To simplify the task, after entering the desired login, press the Enter button and see what the system offers. It will show different free titles after each click. Maybe something will fit.

If the name is free for registration, then after pressing Enter, the field for entering it will not be highlighted in red.

Many people don't realize at first how important it is to have a good address. Of course, if the mail is needed not for correspondence, but for something else (registration on Google Play, for example), then any name will do. But if you plan to receive letters to her, then the address is very, very important.

Ideally, it should be simple and not too long, so that it can be dictated over the phone. Preferably without numbers and dots. And no "babies", "beauties" and "pussies"!

It's very funny when a serious guy's business card says puzatik45.

Password and password confirmation. Here you need to print the alphanumeric code with which you will open your box. It can only use letters of the English alphabet and numbers, the size must be at least eight characters. It is highly desirable that the letters are of different case (both large and small) - this way it will be more difficult for hackers to crack the box.

Be sure to write this password down in a safe place!

It is checked: it is forgotten instantly, but you simply cannot enter your mail without it.

Date of birth, gender. These fields are also required. Information from them will not be used anywhere. As in the case of the first / last name, it is better to indicate your real data. So it will be easier to return access to the box if there are problems with the entrance.

Other information. Mobile phone, alternate email address mail and country - these data can be omitted.

3 . After filling in all the required fields, click "Next". If the system does not let you in, it means that some field is not filled in the way it should be. It will be highlighted in red, and just below it is written what is wrong with it.

four . A window will appear in which the registration conditions in gmail.com mail will be written. They must be accepted, otherwise you will not receive the box.

The "Accept" button will become available only after you have read them.

That's all! The box is registered and Google is happy to provide its address. We write it down in a safe place and click on "Go to the Gmail service."

Immediately after that, your new mail will open.

E-mail address

If you carefully read what I said before, then you should remember about the username. I said that this is the address of your e-mail box. But this is not entirely true: every mail on the Internet has one more part besides the login. In the case of Google, this is @gmail.com

It turns out that the correct name of the email box consists of the username (login) and the prefix @gmail.com. And this address should be one continuous word without spaces. There is no dot at the end.

An example of a correctly written address:

It is this full name that needs to be dictated to people, written on business cards, websites and in other places. If you give a person only a shortened version, he will not be able to send a letter - it simply will not reach. But only the address should be your own, and not the one that is written in this picture :)

How to find your mailbox address

As soon as you get into your new mailbox, Google welcomes you and briefly talks about the possibilities of mail. We close this window - it will not appear again.

To find out your email address on Gmail, you need to click on the icon with the letter of your name at the top right. A small window will appear where it will be written.

How to enter your mail after registration

Okay, we have the box. But how to get into it after a while: a day, two, a month, a year ...

Everything is very simple: usually the Internet program (browser) remembers the data from the mail and downloads it automatically. You only need to open Google site, and in the upper right corner, click on the picture with small squares, where to select the mail icon.

Immediately after that, your box with new and old letters should open. And if suddenly the program for the Internet forgets the data from the mail, then you will need to enter them.

Why you need a Gmail inbox

Of course, first of all, mail is needed to send and receive emails. In addition to text, you can send documents, photos, and other files.

The Google search engine is very popular and every day a large number of users are interested in logging into Gmail.com and registering a mailbox. Many services are integrated into the mail options. It is a convenient, reliable and secure email service.

By creating your own account in Gmail, integration into the social network automatically takes place. Google network+, YouTube, Play Market (Android apps), Disk (10 GB storage space for personal information), Documents, etc. After registering and entering the mail, the data is synchronized.

  • enter your email address and password;

  • the email login link will be displayed at the top of the Google page.

  • you can also enter Gmail mail (Gmail) from the page of the Google search engine, with the button on the right " To come in".


If the login failed due to an incorrect password, you need to check the layout language, uppercase or uppercase mode ( caps lock), is it included additional keyboard (Num lock). If all else fails, click the " Need help" and, following the instructions, recover the password (for more details, see the article below).

Registering with Gmail.com

If there is no registration in the gmail mail yet, then first you should go to search engine Google. Thereafter:


  • the page for entering the data required for registration will open;

  • fill in all the lines, enter the verification number from the picture and click " Further";

Automatic login to Gmail.com

On the Gmail login page (registration should already be completed), the “ Remain in the system". After launching the browser by pressing the button " To come in" mailbox opens. Now gmail will open automatically.

Email notifications without logging into Gmail

For more convenient work with mail created special applications, which are integrated into the Google Chrome browser (download) and will automatically notify you of the sent correspondence, without entering the mail page. These add-ons include Checker Plus for Gmail. After installing it, on the right in the browser ( Google Chrome) will display a mail icon and notification of incoming mail (more than detailed information after clicking on it).

Also, this add-on makes it easier to work with several personal mailboxes at the same time, has voice notification and control, makes it possible to use mail even when the browser is closed, etc.

Login to Gmail.com without a password - password recovery

This service is very attentive to the difficulties of users and all steps to restore mail have already been carefully worked out. The technical service has thought out a method of clarification by which it is possible to determine the real owner with a high probability. This instruction will consider the most complex method - without access to the number mobile phone and not having a second mailbox attached:

  • On the email password entry page, click the link " Need help";

  • a page will open with a selection of probable problems, where you need to select " I do not remember the password" and enter the email address (if it does not appear automatically). After that, press the button " Proceed";

  • on the next page you need to specify the password in the form in which it is remembered and select " Proceed" or " Difficult to answer";

  • you will be prompted to use a phone number. Because in this manual, the method without access to the phone number is considered, then the item “ I can't use the phone";

If the mobile is available, the button " Proceed", SMS code is entered and a new password is set. This completes the restoration of access for those who have a phone linked to their account at hand.

  • the dates of the last entry into gmail.com mail and registration are entered;

  • the next step is the answer to Secret Question entered during registration. Here you can enter the correct answer and select " Proceed" or click on the button Skip this question" if the question itself is forgotten;

  • all subsequent steps are aimed at proving their belonging to this box. Each omission of the question will only stretch the gmail (gmail.com) mail recovery procedure. Upon completion, the system will process all these responses and grant access to the mailbox.

In the future, it is better to play it safe from such cases and write down the data in a safe place. It does not hurt to attach a valid phone number or a second mailbox to the mail. You can do this in your account profile settings.

History of mailbox creation

The first google mailbox was launched in 2004. After three years spent on its creation, the news published a revolutionary announcement. The mail service available to everyone, promising free gigabyte storage, was initially perceived by the public as a joke.

In the future, thanks to gmail (gmail), great leaps forward took place in this area and almost all Internet mail services began to use these technologies.
