LinkBack URL
About LinkBacksLong story short, my mom got a Droid. They gave her a gmail account to go with it. Now, months later, she wants to access her gmail account from her computer, but she doesn't know the password.
Can she change the gmail password from her droid?
Thanks!

11-26-2010 02:54 PMThank you, I know how to reset the password. However, when I try that, it goes to the account recovery screen instead of emailing her the password. The account recovery screen is not very helpful if you've never actually used gmail.
So, please see my original question: is there a way to change your gmail password from your droid? -

11-26-2010 03:00 PMYou have to change/reset it from a PC or with the Browser on the Droid.
Then the Gmail app will ask for the new password.A gun in the hand is better than a cop on the phone.

11-26-2010 03:07 PMLook, that's not the situation. I can currently read gmail from the droid.
I can't log in from the PC because she doesn't know the password.
I can't reset the password - it shunts me off to a form that asks for information like addresses she emails frequently and labels for folders, but she doesn't have any of that because she's NEVER USED GMAIL.
So, how do I get her into her account?
