gmail not syncing cm7 - Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet

I have the cm7 ROM and I'm impressed at what it can do. Anyway, gmail is stuck at "your mail will appear shortly". AS a workaround, I logged into gmail thru the native IMAP client... I have it set to check every 5 minutes...
Anyway to fix?

Try clearing data and cache from the app settings. (Settings --> Application Settings --> All Apps)

Delete "failed" Exchange account

I have a couple of Google mail accounts and an Exchange mail account syncing to my HTC Sensation (running Android Revolution HD 3.6.1 ROM) and something has got screwed up with the mail account. When I try to open Mail, it crashes. If I open People, Mail crashes. If I try and view a contact from the Messaging app, Mail crashes. If I try to edit the account information in Settings --> Acounts & Sync --> Exchange account, Mail crashes. Gmail works fine
Basically I can't do anything with this account without it crashing. If I go into Settings --> Applications, Mail is never running so I can't clear cache or clear data. Is there anyway to remove this account (without factory resetting)?

[Q] Why won't Gmail background sync?

I have a Tab 10.1 WiFi running Task 14 with Pershoot's Kernal (not overclocking).
I find that Gmail won't sync in the background. I have to manually load the Gmail app for it to sync and show me new/changed messages. I have Wifi sleep policy set to never and background sync enabled in the settings.
How do I get Gmail to automatically sync?
Thanks
I've had that happen before. Just clear data for gmail app and it should be good to go then.

Thanks for the suggestion. I tried this and at first thought it worked but it hasn't. Gmail has gone back to not autoupdating until I manually launch the app...
Have you checked your sync settings?
Go to settings > accounts & sync > your gmail account > check sync gmail is checked.
It's normally pretty good at indicating on one of the latter screens whether there are sync issues or not.
You need to do it manually in sync as he said ^
Might want to change to alert per email.

How to Stop Automatic Re-enabling of Sync for Standard Mail App Accounts

I have multiple companies, and have 20+ e-mail addresses in the standard mail app. One of the accounts is a Hotmail account, which I forward all the other addresses to, to take advantage of the Hotmail Push feature (I used to use GMail, but HTC no longer supports GMail automatic setup in the standard mail app, so there is no Push option).
The reason I have the other accounts (aside from the Hotmail account) is so that when I receive a message, I can choose to reply to a message received by Hotmail, using the appropriate business email address/server.
I recently had to wipe my phone and set everything backup (don't ask), and now, although I have all accounts aside from the Hotmail account to NOT sync, every once in a while I see that the sync option on the other accounts re-enables itself. At first, I thought it was just an anomaly, but today I happened to see a message on my phone that said, "Syncing to platform", and then all the other mail accounts began syncing again. So, now I know that when the phone "syncs to platform", it resets all my sync settings on the mail app. This NEVER happened before. How do I stop this? I've looked at the Privacy app, and there is a choice to turn off the "Backup my settings" option, but when I go to turn this feature off, I get a warning that this will "stop backing up my Wi-fi passwords, bookmarks, other settings, and app data, and erase all copes on Google servers". Is this the feature I need to disable? If so, does this mean that my online Google account will no longer know what apps I download, and when I go into a wi-fi zone, I will always have to remember the password for each wi-fi zone?

[Q] Delete "Corporate" email account Android 4.4

Hi, I'm running stock Android 4.4 on a Nexus 5.
Does anyone know how to delete an email account listed under Corporate in Settings / Accounts. I deleted two Hotmail accounts by clicking > Settings > IMAP > *click on account* > Settings > Remove Account. However, both Hotmail accounts are still showing in the Calendar and Email apps. I was trying to uninstall my Hotmail accounts and reinstall them again as my Hotmail calendars were showing duplicate entries in the calendar app. Now it seems they are uninstallable / unremovable?!!!
Please help!
PROBLEM SOLVED
EDIT: I rebooted my phone and checked the sync boxes under Settings > Corporate > *account* and the Remove Account option showed up under the Settings Dots. God. What a palava. Why do those boxes have to be ticked to have the Remove Account option showing?!

[Q] "Sync Calendar" disappeared from all Google account Sync Settings

I really can't figure this one out. My calendar widget stopped working and for some reason, I don't even have the option of selecting "Sync Calendar" under any of my Google accounts. I have tried deleting and re-adding each individual account, but to no avail. Settings say "Sync is experiencing problems. It will be back momentarily." But I cannot find the source of the problem.

Make sure you have the Google Calendar app installed.
I do. I've tried using both the Google Calendar app as well as Samsung's stock app... Still the same problem.

I finally found the Google Calendar Sync Troubleshooter.
Here's the step that fixed it for me. Several layers deep in the Troubleshooter, but finally resolved the issue!
We recommend proceeding with these steps only if the above steps don't resolve the issue.
Open your device’s Settings.
Select Applications, then All.
Select Calendar Storage.
Select Clear data. Answer OK when prompted.
Turn Calendar sync off and on in Settings > Accounts > Google > [your affected account], or from within the app using Menu > Refresh on newer devices. If you receive an error message upon opening the Calendar app, close and re-open it to re-activate sync.
