    Google account password issue

    Hi All,

    I wasn't sure what category to put this under but here goes....

    I use a desktop PC running Win 8.1. I also have an Android smartphone and my DH recently bought me an Android tablet.

    Up until a week ago, I had no problems with my Google account on all my devices.
    I recently gave access to my Google calendar (Calengoo) to DH.
    DH uses an iphone. After he was able to log into my Google account, I started having isuues where I would get a message saying I could not sign in to my Google account. It is happening on all 3 devices.

    I just had a thought (I've got chemo brain so that's my excuse ☺)...
    Perhaps DH is still signed in to my account and that's why I am having trouble. I'll check that out right now.

    Will post back in a few..

    Nope, DH checked and he's not signed in as me. Poo. I thought that was my answer.

    Anything else I should check?

    Well I had problems for while because I switch between Linux, Win 7 and Windows 10 and the differnt browsers I use. Have the same problem on a couple websites too. Just have to log in again.

    As for password strength, I use this link

    I like a good figure in the "Massive Cracking Array Scenario:".

    Are you being prompted to re-enter your password?

    Can you log into Gmail from a browser? It sounds like the password got changed. If so, you'd need to update the password on all your devices.

    Hi Patience,

    If you haven't already, try this troubleshooter and see if this will help resolve your sign in problems.
