Hi,
I'm having trouble using Google Keep.
It doesn't want to sync at all.
It says "Sync is Unavailable" under my account in settings, I checked and it it flag for syncing in the system preferences.
It doesn't seem to be link to my android because I changed ROM 3-4 times in the last days and it's always the same issue.
It seems to be link to the Google Keep server itself though. Here is a screenshot from my browser.

Hello everyone,
I have a problem uploading photos to my picasa account from my sgs2. Syncing emails, contacts and calendars works pretty fine. I can also see my picasa web-albums in the gallery app and they are up to date, but when I try to upload a photo to picasa I always get the error "authentication failed".
I already removed my google account on the phone and added a it again with another application password, but the error stays the same.
The same with other applications in the market for uploading photos to a picasa account (Picasa Tool, JustPictures!). With these apps I can also view my web albums, but uploading always fails.
Does anyone else experience this error? Does it have to do something with the latest security issue of android phones (being able to steal authentication in open wifi) and the google fix? Because just two weeks earlier it worked fine with my HTC Desire. Or am I just doing something wrong?
I had the same issue with the picasa app which is already installed.
I got the 'picasa tool' from the android market which worked fine after loggin in with the google account.
Thanks for reply!
I found my problem and could resolve it!
My picasa album reached the maximum image limit (1000), so every uploaded image was rejected and all applications gave an authentication error. When I tried to upload a photo over the web interface I got another error from google "server rejected" and searching for it told me that I could have reached my limit.
Well, it would be helpful if these applications could tell the user that the album possibly reached the limit.
Anyway, I hope I can help other people who run into the same problem.
I had a similar issue that I wanted to share. The issue started after I installed Google authenticator. Everyday (usually once a day, hard to reproduce), I would get a sign in error, which would make me put in a human readable word to correct it.
Looking into it more, found that it would put error next to 'Sync Picasa Web Albums' (Settings -> Accounts & Sync) and state that it is temporarily unavailable but would never come back. This would also make the albums I have on Picasa unavailable on my phone. After removing authenticator, I would still get the same issue. VERY annoying.
I tired everything I could think of: Changing passwords, wiping the phone, forcing log out on every device accessing Google services...
Then I went to Picasa settings and disabled Analytics for my account and updated the setting. BAM... Worked ever since.
I hope this helps someone later.

Is there anyway to use any calendar related features on the Atrix without it syncing to Google? I've searched the internet for answers, searched the device for settings...and I always get the same result. Under Settings > Accounts > Other Accounts heading > "My Google Gmail account" the tick box next to Sync Calendar is UN-ticked. Yet, no matter what calendar app I use, eventually everything shows up online in Google calendars. So I go back and check the tick box and its still cleared. I put a test event online in Google calendars, and in less than a minute it's on my phone. Is there a setting I'm overlooking here?
thanks
Have you tried Calendar(app)>menu>more>calendars ?

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Yes, but If I 'un-sync' it there, the whole calendar disappears from phone. I want to use the calendar on my phone, but not have it sync to Google. There's only 3 options there, but not a 'Visible, not synced' option. Only 'not synced, not visible'. The only way i can stop it from going to Google is turn on Airplane mode, but that's pretty pointless, and it just syncs as soon as I turn it off. It doesn't appear that sync settings under accounts do anything on my phone. This is my first Android device, so maybe that's just how it is?
Hi (i know that i posted this in general android, but some may not read that)
I just got a new phone (Xperia Z Ultra (yay!)), but whenever i try to login to my google account, the following happen.
The login works.
Hangouts fail with the following: "Couldnt sign in possible because theres a problem with google account permissions"
Chrome fail with: "Unable to sign in"
Calendar, music widget and information about people doesn't sync.
Google Now fails: "Network error"
Google+ fails: Could not connect to server
Google Play Games just close when opening.
and i keep having a yellow triangle in my notification shade: "Login error for --email--"
I have tried both stock, CM and PA.
I would be really really grateful if someone could come up with a fix!
Thanks
If it doesn't work on Stock, CM and PA, there's clearly something going on with your account. Did you change some account settings that you can't remember? Did you change your password after you logged in on your Ultra?
I didn't change the password.
And i'm pretty sure no google settings where changed.
I worked fine when i set the device up for the first time yesterday.
But yesterday evening i flashed PA and logged in, and nothing has been working since.
I have already tried removing my 2 factor authenticator, resetting the device and then logging in again. Also did the same just changing my password instead.
Also on PA and CM i tried a couple of different google apps
and i tried logging in on both wifi and 4G
Try this.
Still has the sync error :-S
To make things even worse, i just tried logging in with my second google account, and everything sync and works just fine
Huh.. It's pretty clear that you're not the first one to have this problem (according to Google search), but I have no idea what's going on. It could be a fluke on Google's servers, so wait until tomorrow or later today and try again.

Make sure your system time and DATE are correct. That should fix it.

Thanks for all the help guys, iv'e contacted google and made a case.
Because everything except gmail has stopped working for me.
I'm unable to sign into chrome on my computer, Google Drive stopped syncing, i can't sign into Feedly (uses google authentication) and so on...
So wish me luck!
EDIT: YES! i just fixed everything, i just revoked every single thing under "Connected Sites, Apps, and Services"
Hi everybody.
I just noticed something very weird. I made a fresh install with complete wipe of Cyanogenmod 11 M10 some days ago, and I was setting all the apps; when I came to the "People" app I noticed that Google+ contacts were not being shown. I checked the setting in the Google+ app, the one that says "keep my contacts updated" or something like that (my system is in Italian), and it was correctly ticked, as well as every voice in the Google account sync page in the settings.
I tried almost everything: uninstall Google+ app updates and update again, removing and re-adding my Google account, rebooting, removing the flag from the options and adding them again.. nothing.
In the People app, under "contacts to show" (again, this is a translation, I don't know the exact name in English), I only see listed WhatsApp, Google, and Exchange account. No sign of Google+, where I remember there was before.
Anyone has got a clue? Or maybe things are supposed to be like this now and everything's fine.. how is it on your phones?
Thanks in advance.
I don't know if this has been addressed somewhere and I haven't found it, but I've been searching various forums for days now looking for my answer. I have resulted to this.
It's more of an annoyance than anything, but I cannot get Facebook to link with my contacts. Facebook shows up as synced in "Accounts and Sync" in Settings, but when I open a contact and click "link" and choose Facebook, nothing shows up. Just says "No results found".
The only cause of this I can think of is remotely logging off Facebook from all devices and locations from my home computer. Even then, when I've done it before I just re-log in on my phone and everything is fine.
My current rom is ViperOne M8 4.6.0. Which is on Sense 7. Android Version 5.0.2
Any help or advise would be appreciated.
