Go to Settings, Accounts, Click on the account that you are talking about, Make sure the Sync Gmail box is checked....

Hopefully I finally figured it out.

I had the same issue buggin the @#%$ out of me. Had to always manually do the sync. All the searched I've done have not helped including clearing data under applications. But this is how I got mine to work and it seem so easy.

I have no idea how this happened but somehow the option for automatic sync was switched off.

First select your gmail icon, then hit your options button and select accounts. On top should be the envelope with the gmail written next to it underneath should be your gmail account. Next, hit your option key again and seletct account settings. There should be a Background data checked green and underneath is Auto-sync. Make sure that is checked green. Mine wasnt and after highlighting that option, the section beneath labeled "Manage accounts" switched to Sync is ON with a grean circle (refresh symbol) appearing. Hope this helps.
