How to put a third account in Google accouts in settings? - Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have 3 calender accounts, 2 gmail and 1 yahoo. Is it possible to add a third account so the tab will sync with it also. I have the 2 gmails added to the Google account settings but can not find a way to add a third. I know it is possible to add yahoo because I had it installed on other tablet but I never had 3 in the Google setings. Is it possible?

You can actually use gmail email accounts to import emails from things like say yahoo so they all come to one email address if that makes sense, but otherwise its sacrifice time lol sorry...may i ask what is your intended use to have the 3 gmail accounts synced in your phone? Do u just want the emails themselves or all of googles services for all 3 if that makes sense.

I have a Yahoo account on my calander and does not sync.

Googlemail - slow sync?

Ok - I've finally got my email on my phone synced to googlemail, which in turn is synced to yahoo which was may bread and butter email client until I got this phone.
So - question is, why is my googlemail not showing any of today's emails, and yet I have already recieved about ten emails in my yahoo account?
Any ideas?
If you have asked google to transfer your emails from yahoo to google, it will not do it immediately.
Google will poll yahoo occasionally to collect emails, and then notify you about them all in one go.
You need to let all your contacts know your new google address as this will bring you notifications immediately. Also, google wont poll your yahoo address indefinitely , so at some point in the future, you will only be notified about new google emails and not new yahoo ones.

Seriously? What is the point in that? I would hardly call that syncing acounts, is it? So, if I want to continue using my phone with email, I essentially need to cancel my yahoo mail account that I've been using for over 10 years?

[Q] Cyanogenmod not showing/syncing exchange calendar

I'm using CyanogenMod 7.1.0-RC1-buzz. i use an Exchange email/account for my work and gmail for personal. I can see fine the Gmail side of things but the Exchange calendar doesn't show up in the settings so I can't see any events from that account. Also in the Account & sync settings it does not display my exchange account under Manage accounts.
Anyone help me out?

Maybe I can help.
From your PC or normal internet you need to log into your Google account and link your exchange Calender etc etc to your Google account and then from your phone you will be able to choose which accounts to sync/show. I can't give great detail as it was a long time ago I had to do this but for Facebook Calender sync so can't recall exactly what the process is. Hope it helps though? Regards Slymobi.

Thanks for the tip, but that method I'll have to export my Exchange cal and then import it into Gmail - that way I won't be able to edit my events with have to redo the export from exchange etc etc.
Cheers anyway

Linking accounts to Gmail

Hi,
I would like to forward two email accounts to my Gmail account, so I can just use one inbox in the gmail app. My first account is through Yahoo and my second email account is my .edu email through outlook. Anyone know a quick way to load my account settings so I receive all my email through Gmail?
Thanks in advance!
Ok, I got my .edu address to forward. The problem I'm having with Yahoo is it wants me to pay for it's premium service. Is there any way to forward to gmail without upgrading?
Don't forward it from Yahoo, but use Gmails POP support to pull emails from Yahoo.
Gmail config is under Settings > Accounts and Import > Check mail from other accounts (using POP3)

I'm trying through Gmail, when I use my yahoo account it gives me the message that POP forwarding is only available for Yahoo plus.

Hmm, sorry, looks like I was wrong. I was doing something similar not too long ago but I have now closed my Yahoo account so I can't check it out. I'm in Canada, and it looks like there is some difference between free vs. paid services as well.
Google is your friend, try this:

or this
http://www.androidappspoint.com/40321-forward-yahoo-mail-gmail-free-android-apps-android-10.html
(Note: someone there said it doesn't work anymore for Asia and to try using UK it seems to be free for some countries so it is a loop-hole.)

The first link doesn't help with Yahoo, and the second link I've tried already with Asia and UK. Both settings still required me to sign up for yahoo premium.

[Q] Email and Contacts Issues

So, I'm running the Gmail app and it works fine for my Gmail accounts. Additionally I was able to get one of my Gmail accounts to sync contacts with my phone (by adding it as an account), but then the phone keeps showing me the email even though I don't want to see it. Then I added my Yahoo account to the native Email app and the darn phone added all of those contacts as well. I disabled Contacts Sync, but the "Yahoo" contacts are all still there.. The Yahoo account contacts are a mess and I really don't want to sort them out or delete them. To be honest, here is what I want this phone to do (which is what my last Android did easily):
1) Sync my contacts from a specific Google account. Just my contacts, not my email and not my calendar.
2) Sync my email from a specific Yahoo account. Just my email, not my contacts and not my calendar.
I know there is an option that should allow me to achieve #2, but that option ain't working. Its seems to me that there are no options to support #1. I think that the only way to achieve #1 is to configure my Yahoo through another email app.
Please share any thoughts on how I can configure #1 and #2 successfully.

Gmail Exchange / Microsoft Exchange Activesync

What a great device, but I really miss the Microsoft Exchange Activesync account type.
I tried to setup via the new Google Exchance account type, and I can see my exchange mail just fine i Gmail. But I dont care for reading my professional life emails in gmail, so it would have been great if OnePlus had included an email app.
Anyway, I can see my calendar items in Google Calender just fine, both my gmail and exchange calendar item. So far so good.
Contacts however is a different matter. Gmail and Exhance contacts are cluttered all together in the dial (contracts), is there a way to exclude my gmail contacts so I only see Exchange contacts?. I can't seem to find any way to do that on the oneplus 3.
Also, not all my exchange contacts are there, so although sync is greenlighted the sync is not complete. Anybody else experience and fix that?
You could use this for exchange sync. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.microsoft.office.outlook
Sendt fra min OnePlus 3
Try the app "Mail Wise" or "Nine"...my favorite is Nine!

Thanks, I tried it but I like using the google calendar, so although it looks good mailwise I am looking elsewhere.

Will try both..probably end up with Nine also since it has be best rep.
Well, 3rd time I set up exchange it looks like I now have working email, calendar and all my contacts.
Now I just need to find a good stand alone email app for my exchange email and then disable notifications of such emails from the gmail app.
Hmm, .they sure didn't make it easy.
I started usibg to one plus 3 recently. Phone is very good but badly miss the smoofh integration of microsoft exchange and contacts in my old Samsung phone in active syn mode. . Wish one plus 3 brings its own email app like what we see in i phone or samsung.
I personally use an outlook and Gmail address. I use Nine for my email app and just forward my Gmail to my outlook address. Could always create a secondary outlook adress as well just to handle the Gmail address.
