Mac Mail issues, I can no longer access my gmail account

I am having problems with my Mac mail program. I can no longer access my gmail account. When I click on the internet account it says that I need "enter the password for the account. When I click on it, it opens a small box which has a circle and it just keeps circling. I can't add the password. I have gmail access thru my macbook pro, iphone etc. Anyone have an idea of how to fix this? How do I repair the program?

1 - Restart in Safe Mode. This will perform a Disk Repair, clear cache files and only load Apple Software, extensions and fonts. The boot up will be slow and can take some time - Normal.


2 - Does the issue present in this mode ?


3 - Sometimes a Safe Boot followed by a Normal Boot will just put things right.
