Excellent video, thank you. I got the same error message as you when trying to add my google account, so had to delete the google account from iCloud completely, before adding it as an 'other' mail account again.
Unfortunately this patch doesn't seem to work anymore, because the Google Security interface has changed. There is no longer an "Add password" tab. Mac users are going crazy on forums trying to fix this, to no avail. Help?
Damn! You were moving pretty fast, but I finally got it! Thanks, brother. You got my email back online and working. I thought I had a virus, but it was just Google being jerks - again! Thanks again!
I've my MacBook for less than a year... and recently had some password issues with one of three Google accounts. I only had a problem with one account and this was the only thing that worked! Thank you!
Thank you! I have a 2022 Mac and never had any issue with Gmail in my Mac mail app until this week. Even though this is an older security method, for some reason this is the only thing that works now.
I'm desperate trying to solve this problem, but I'm not able to do it according to the video. Can you tell me where I found "change app password" other than the route instructed in the video?
Thanks for that, but I have other Apple devices with that e.mail account and I need to remove them all to enable me to put the account on as instructed. I'm very nervous about doing that as I may not be able to put them back onto my other devices very easily. Any suggestions?
Hi HELP PLEASE!!! What happens if the 2-step verification has been created and I am unable to now create the app password? It's like I can not go back a few steps to generate the app password for my old imac
Thanks - this almost worked but it said this account already exists - I mean yes of course it does - I'm just trying to access it. Do I need to delete my Gmail account from my apple Mail first?
Thanks! I'm already at this stage, but I have an existing (same) Gmail account already which is installed on all my devices through iCloud. On most devices it works just on an old MacBook from 2010 it doesn't work. I don't want to delete it just for testing as it contains tens of thousands of mails that will be deleted. Will this work definitely on all my devices if I delete the account completely and replace it with the new password?
This didn't work for me. I had to set my default browser to Chrome. Then go back into settings and re-add my google account. After the verification process it didn't give me the error code. I was able to re-add my Gmail account to mail.
Does anyone still have problems like with his first example? it keeps asking me to choose IMAP or POP and a server. I'm just trying to add a google workspace account
somehow Facebook, yahoo and all the other apps will let me add my email but not the google app. I also noticed I don't have an app password....can you help me??
As of Feb 2024 it is no longer 'App passwords' but now 'Passkeys and security keys' fyi for others. Passkeys should work on any Mac device regardless if you have fingerprint, face or screen lock or not, to get you sorted with Gmail.
this method didn't work for calendar app as it only gave me the choice to choose to sync mails and notes no calendar do u know why, is there a setting in gmail or google account that i need to check and enable
If you didnt have App Password option: th-cam.com/video/MTqNvmere2g/w-d-xo.html with this link and the above, I was able get my gmail running through the Mail App on my mac!

Oh my goodness, ive been trying to resolve this issue for MONTHS! Thank you soooo much! I genuinely thought I would never achieve it. Super grateful!

Hi Everyone!
App Passwords on Google seems changed =( , anyone else has still the same problems as i have?
Thank you for this video!! I spent hours trying to clear this up and within minutes after watching your video I was up and running!
Tried every other solutions and none of them worked except for this. This really saved me big time. Thank you!!
Damn! You were moving pretty fast, but I finally got it! Thanks, brother. You got my email back online and working. I thought I had a virus, but it was just Google being jerks - again! Thanks again!

"App password" is not even an option for me, even though 2-step verification is enabled. What is the reason?
Thank you! I've been looking for a fix for this for months and yours finally did it :)
Thanks a lot for clarifying this stupid issue I've been having since I installed macOS HS on my '11 MBP.
Thank you! Can't believe they haven't fixed this issue, but your trick still works as of January 2024.
Once I deleted the existing Gmail account in my Apple Mail that isn't working - then I did these steps - it worked - HUGE thanks
This video helped me and sorted the issue I had, Thankyou
It didn't work for me. I dont have this option in Security options (App passwords). Any ideas what to do? 😕
Do you have two step verification on?
It’s in two step verification.
Me too! But finally found out that if you go to 2-step verification > app passwords is on the very bottom! Hope that helps 😊
I had to help my grandparents get Gmail on a wayyyy old mac and this helped so much! Thank you!
Thank you man. you're a life saver. I have the same problems with these two account. Now it's connected. Than you man
This has worked well for me twice. Thanks!
Thank you! I have a 2022 Mac and never had any issue with Gmail in my Mac mail app until this week. Even though this is an older security method, for some reason this is the only thing that works now.
couldn't get to the app password like you showed, but was able to search for it and worked the same. Thanks!
I'm desperate trying to solve this problem, but I'm not able to do it according to the video. Can you tell me where I found "change app password" other than the route instructed in the video?
@@iago.barreto just type "app password" in the search bar if you can't find it the way he did in the video
Went thru the first few steps but cannot get the App Password tab on my MacBook Air? Any suggestions?
Thanks, after finding the ways, yours are the best and fix everything. Thank you so much
Thank you very much , I have not been able to access my Google mail for days .
It went all wrong at 1:15 My screen looks nothing like yours 😭 I cannot add it as an "other" account either, the 400 error code keeps reappearing.
it was great man! it worked and fixed my problem :) thanks a lot🙏
There is a reason to not share our phone numbers with google, right?
(Mysteriously older version of mac os x do not have this issue.)
do you know how to sync mac calendar with google calendar?
Super, thank you!
This is great: thanks!
Thanks for that, but I have other Apple devices with that e.mail account and I need to remove them all to enable me to put the account on as instructed. I'm very nervous about doing that as I may not be able to put them back onto my other devices very easily. Any suggestions?
