Have you tried logging in with your browser (Chrome, Dolphin, Firefox) to one account and setting up the music app with the other account? I haven't tried this, just an idea.

I had this problem too I had to clear my chrome sync data on my Google account clear the data on the Internet app and then sign in and out of chrome. Make sure you are only encrypting your passwords in chrome.

I will try this. Thanks for the suggestion

Oh fantastic!
It worked.
For anyone else who stumbles across this thread, what I did was...
In google chrome settings via a computer, There is a hyperlink to google dashboard. Go there and down to Chrome Sync, I reset and deleted chrome data. (Don't worry, it doesn't delete your bookmarks, picasa, or gmail). Then it reset Chrome so that it was not "encrypt all data" and instead is now "encrypt with password", like you said.
Problem fixed.
Thank you so much!
Is it possible to sync both my personal laptop and work PC to chrome? I have my laptop syncing to my primary gmail account and my work PC to my secondary gmail. Can I sync both computers to the same gmail and maintain separate, unique settings for each?

In chrome settings, disable syncing to whichever account you want to let go. Then sign back in with the correct account.
Then, under the syncing options, you can chose what exactly to sync; Browsing history, extensions, bookmarks, etc.
So, yes.

If I am understanding correctly, I can sign into both machines using a single email (gmail account) and they will both stay synced separately? Just want to make sure I'm retaining all of my synced settings for both machines. Thanks for the clarification.
What I don't like about this is that it merges all bookmarks and items in the bookmark bar. I wish it would keep them separate by device. Not practical with the work computer...

Worked perfectly. Thank you.
fixed finally
On my sensation it seems that "reset Chrome so that it was not "encrypt all data" and instead is now "encrypt password" is what repaired my "internet sync" problem.
Thank you!

This worked for me too! I previously had had chrome. Had to get a new galaxy 3. I redownloaded chrome on the new phone and deleted sync data from my desktop then signed back in to chrome on desktop as well . Went back to my phone and hit sync internet and it worked.
I've had the same problem on my SGS3 so I decided to look it up on here. The fix is fine and all, but what exactly does syncing "Internet" do anyway?
Android and Desktop Chrome Sync
I know this is a little old, but I found this thread after having sync problems as well. So I thought I'd post the fix.
I assume you are using chrome on both devices.
you can have encryption on everything and still sync across devices, but you have to have the encryption set the same on both, and use either the passphrase or the google account option, but again it must be the same on both (all?) devices.
I failed to change the setting on my phone when on my desktop browser I reset syncing to encrypt everything, not just passwords.
On your chrome browser for android go into "settings" then tap account name at top then "sync" then "encryption" then match whatever you did on the desktop, and everything should work again.
there's really no reason not to encrypt everything IMHO

Tell your work computer not to sync certain things. like bookmarks. It's how I have mine set up. I sync everything except bookmarks and extensions
Swyped on my EVO LTE
I still want to know what syncing "Internet" actually does.
Had this problem on both my GS2 and my HTC ONE.
Only thing that worked was going to "Google Dashboard" from your computer web browser
Find "Chrome Sync", and click on "Stop sync and delete data from Google"
Refresh your Internet Sync on your Android.

I only use the stock browser, so I wouldn't know, but any browser that syncs with your google account will have the same issue.
for me the issue is slightly different.
my google account bookmarks syncs well on chrome pc and chrome and chrome beta on my android devices (2tabs and phone)...
but it doesn't work for stock browser on any of them. stock browser doesn't sync with server from a month.
already tried to reset data on server...and tried to disactivate and restart syncing on each device. nothing worked.
i set to encrypt only passwords..

[Q] Chrome widget-no thumbnails

I can't for the life of me figure out how to get the chrome widget to show thumbnails. I only have maybe 1 or two out of 30 or so. I've tried visiting all the sites, putting them under mobile bookmarks, logging in all the websites, visiting the websites on the stock browser, restarting my launcher/phone.....nothing.
Can anyone help.

its a google chrome bug google has to update chrome for android and fix that themselves. if you try firefox the bookmark thumbnails show. Or you can try this only view pages in mobile browser instead of full version websites if applicable. For some reason thumbnails show up if view via mobile version of websites in chrome.

Cool, thanks! Can you successfully use mobile hotspot still?
Will freezing Verizon Location Services and Sync Services affect Maps, Gmail Syncing?
Thanks for the list!
Just tried hotspot, had to get home for a connecting device.
Verizon locations is useless. And it's part much just a tracker, it may be used with Vz Navigator. The sync that is disabled is, again, a Verizon service. It doesn't effect Gmail.
Added 11 more to the list.
Please keep this going!!

I think these are the Verizon-modified versions of the apps. I froze the Verizon calendar app and downloaded Google's from the Play Store. I don't use tasks.

Because they're not AOSP. They're LG versions which I replace from the market. Just like Music.

[Q] Exchange support not showing in Gmail app

I'm coming from an HTC M8 and have been using my work exchange emails from within the Gmail app since support was added late last year. However, the gmail app on the S6 Edge does not have Exchange as an option when adding an account - just POP and IMAP.
Is there something I'm missing, or has Samsung disabled email clients other than their own from using exchange?
Have you updated all the apps in the Play Store?
I'm having the same issue on my Galaxy S6. All of my apps have been updated in the Play Store. Any ideas? I don't want to have to run two email apps to get my work email... (I really hate exchange servers)

I believe if you disable the stock email app then you will also disable the exchange function in Gmail.

I can't speak to that as I haven't disabled the stock email app, however I did find a solution to this problem as discussed in another thread here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s6/themes-apps/gmail-exchange-support-t3070884
The problem appears to be that Samsung blocks the Google Exhange APK in the Play Store. However, you can still download the APK and install it after enabling 3rd Party Software installs in security settings, then it will work. You can get Google's APK here: http://www.apkmirror.com/apk/google...ge-services-6-5-1729047-android-apk-download/

Do you like using Gmail over the built in app? I was actually pleasantly surprised by it.
I do. Option wise its good, quick, simple layout.

Which app for email?

Hello,
I wanted to know which email App you use. Because the original one I don't like it and Gmail on quick app is very awful :/
So if you can answer to this it would be great!
I use Gmail. Yeah Gookill is just evil.
Use a cloud based only app like Gmail.
That eliminates malware completely unless you chose to download it.
Gmail is excellent with spam and I have never gotten malware through it except if not mindful of downloaded files.
My Yahoo email got locally wifi hacked once, I don't trust it's encryption now.
Outlook is malware central
Yahoo mail, with Gmail and Yahoo account.
I have no notifications, but I check it anyway, several times a day.
Aquamail, the best.
Nine -> Just get it from Petal Search. If you paid for it on playstore you can add your subscription on the Huawei without issue, you just need to paste the order or something in the app.
Blue Mail

Thanks to MicroG settings, now I have notifications too.
Hi, I've been using Spark, I tried also BlueMail but didn't like it at all, what made me convince about Spark is that it syncs also your gmail folders, so everything keeps as if you were using gmail app, also your signatures, contacts an many more features that makes me forget about gmail native app.
It's available in app gallery, good luck!
Another cool app imo -> "Re:Work". https://rework.so/
I was using "Nine" previously so this is their new app and even had promotion for "Nine" users.
It's not available in the app gallery but it can be downloaded.
Dear Nikolay,
We decided to support Huawei users. So we put a link to download the APK (v1.2.27 released in Google Play Store) in the following site. You can download it here.
