My email account says "login failed."
I use Mail for my email, with a Gmail email address.
For the past month or so, when I open up Mail, at the upper right corner, it says "Login Failed."
It will ask me for my Gmail password, which I have had to change way too many times over the past month, because somehow it thinks that a stranger is trying to access my email and so it sends me an email to that effect....even though it was me signing in with a device I have used for years!
I have the same gmail address for 2 desktop Macs and for my iPad; only the desktops are having email issues.
I am almost to the point of taking the computer in, but know that is going to cost $75 just for walking in the door, so am hopeful that someone can help me with this, PLEASE!
Also, when I try sending emails, about half of the time instead of sending, they sit in the Out box, sometimes for days.
My husband says that I have 2 email accounts, one of which is iCloud, so am not sure if somehow that is the problem.
Do I really need an iCloud account for email?
Help is greatly appreciated, before I shell out $$$ at the Apple store, for what is surely a simple fix!
