Gmail not coming in Mac book Air

My I-phone and I-pad will receive in-coming G-mail (same mail address); however my MacBook Air is asking for a Password in order to receive my mail. This has never been a problem before. I am reluctant to RESET my password and open a can of worms with my phone and/or I-pad. Why do I need a password NOW for my MacBook? Any advised will be appreciated. Thanks D W

Unable to SEND email using Mail app on new iMac I have a new iMac running Mojave and am unable to SEND email using the Mail app. I am asked for the password for my apple account, and am told it isn't good even though the same password accesses everything else I try on this machine, my MacBook Pro, iPad Pro, iPad Air2, iPhone, etc. Does anyone have any idea what the problem might be? I am able to RECEIVE email sent to my .Mac address. Thanks, I appreciate any help you might be able to provide. - Roy

My Mac/Google E-mail won't work I just changed my Google password. In the process I was asked whether I wanted to allow Mac iOS to read, delete etc my gmails etc. I clicked ALLOW. Now my Mac/Google e-mails do't work. I just get the ball of death when I try to send an e-mail. HELP!

Adding a gmail (the horror) email account to my MacBook Air I select Google - A small window opens saying it needs to authenticate via the browser - I click okay and then a spinning dial spins continuously and it never connects to the browser. I'm able to add this account to my phone, but not to my MacBook Air. I never get past the spinning dial.
