My Nexus 6 gmail app has the option for push notification for my outlook.com email, but my Nexus 9 only has 15/30/60 minute sync options. Is this normal?

You can always try uninstalling it and to download it again or just get a other mails app. Your problem is probably a setting that you can fix on the computer or on the gmail syn setting or remove the account and login again.

I'm using the Gmail app on my phone. However, when i look at an email on my phone and delete it, once i go on my computer and look at my email either through my windows live app or the gmail website, it will still show that it was unread. same thing if i were to look on the computer and then check on my phone. I have already tried going into the app and clearing the data/cache and force closing it. i need to set up the gmail to pop forwarding because i also use windows live on my desktop so i dont always have to goto the gmail website. how do i sync both my phone and gmail so when i delete a mail from my phone, it will delete it from the server? i tried going to the gmail app > more > settings, but dont see any option for that...?
how long have u waited until u checked your gmail inbox?
maybe u have to wait a little bit longer, f.e. 5 minutes
Go to settings, applications, manage applications, gmail, clear data. This does a reset of gmail and reloads all of your emails. It also clears up any sync issues. When you launch gmail again you will see all your messages being pulled down from the server.
Has happened to me a few times and this always does the trick.
as stated in my original post, i have already tried clearing my cache and it didn't help much. just to clear things up, when i look at a mail in my gmail app from my phone and delete the message. i will see it delete in mail.google.com. however, if i were to go into my windows live mail app on my desktop, it will still show that it has been unread and it is still there. same thing goes with if i were to check a new mail in my windows live mail desktop app, and then check my gmail app on my phone later on, it will show a new mail that i haven't read yet, when i have already read it in my desktop app. so basically i'm having troubles with my windows live mail app syncing with my gmail app on my phone. however, the mail.google.com website seems to be syncing fine with my phone.

Not cache. Data.
i tried deleting only data also. still the same issue. if i were to delete a mail on my phone, and then later on check my windows live mail app on my desktop, it will still appear unread...?
Not sure if it affects your issue, but are you configured as IMAP or POP3 in the settings of gmail online?

i have both POP3 and IMAP enabled in my gmail settings. POP3 is enabled because i use "windows live mail" on my desktop, so i don't always have to log into the gmail website. and regarding IMAP, it has always been enabled in my settings...
So your windows live account isn't syncing with your Gmail account, your Gmail messages are just forwarding to windows live and leaving copies of the messages on the Gmail server. I don't think it's possible to truly sync Gmail and windows live/Hotmail. You could do it the other way around and set your Gmail account to fetch mail from windows live and set it to not leave a copies on the windows server. Other option is to use k9 and set up 2 accounts, I've found it fiddly to get the syncing right on it though!

I use a Gmail and a Hotmail email account. On my iPhone I had it set to check every hour and both emails were under 1 app. Now on this phone there are separate apps for Gmail and regular mail. Is there a way to make them go into 1 email app? And also my mail app checks every half hour, but I found no option to make the gmail app check at all. I don't like having to check, refresh, and wait for the email. I like being notified when I have an email.
Thanks.
Add your gmail account to the mail app and uninstall gmail.

If you've never done this, you have to make sure to go into your gmail settings and enable IMAP (or POP). It will tell you the server settings to use as well.
Worked perfectly. Thanks.
Weird question maybe. The default email client on the tablet is using the built in app. It connects to my gmail account which is fine, but I want to use the OTHER email client that is on the tablet and setup my other IMAP email accounts also and not use the default Gmail client (which is the red app) and use the yellow one that just says "mail".
Also, does anyone know what the main difference between the two email clients that are loaded on the tablet by default?
One is red and the other is yellow. I guess they are no Outlook 2010, but better than nothing right?
Have you tried simply deleting the GMail app? That would be my first guess...
The red app is Gmail - only used for google's email. The yellow app is for any other email accounts like aol or yahoo.
Go into settings and click "Accounts and Sync" then add account on the top right. Click email and add your imap account. During setup make sure you have Default Account checked, that should set it as default. Hope this helps.
I personally delete gmail each time it comes back with a new ROM.
It just needs a rooted device and one of the numerous apps that can uninstall a system app, or a root file explorer to erase /system/app/gmail.apk.
You can remove the Gmail sync element in settings for that account. Then setup the other email client. Only one email app will check for emails then.
Or as someone said root and uninstall it.
In all honesty I usually just turn off gmail notifications and set up all the other email in my EMAIL app. That way I don't lose anything other than gmail app telling me when I have new mail.
Just open gmail app, go into settings, touch your username, uncheck notifications.
You can freeze the Gmail apk. with Titanium backup and not need to uninstall.

Firstly, Hi everyone and thank you for your time in helping me out.
I love my Xperia S and have set up gmail accounts on my handset. However, I like the look and feel of the Sony Email app more than the gmail app but I am getting duplicate email notifications.
I have been able to remove accounts from the Email app and have just gmail but I would prefer it the other way around.
When I try to remove accounts from the gmail app, it asks to remove the accounts completely, including sync with contacts etc.
I know I can just turn off notifications in the gmail app, but I would rather turn off mail sync from the gmail app so I am not wasting bandwidth/battery.
Any help would be apreciated
You cannot remove the default gmail account only by factory reset.

Hi,
i am trying to get the iphone 3G 4.2.1 notes to my gmail account.
I figured thats the easiest way to get it to the s3.
I found several guides and they are all the same and should work for iOS 4.
"On your iPhone go to Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars. If the Gmail account you're using with your Android isn't here, add it by going to Add account > Gmail. Go back to Mail settings, tap the Gmail account, and turn syncing on for Calendars and Notes. Within a few minutes, your calendar will transfer to your Android device. Notes will be sent to your Gmail account and filed under a label called Notes."
I did that but i cannot chose to sync notes. I can only sync contacts and emails. I also tried the imap settings.. i can never chose "notes" to sync to gmail.
Can someone please help me?
