Delete Email account?

Where do I delete the Email-account I just created just for testing..?
in message menu, click menu then tools then options.
From there select the account to delete and then keep holding down on it till you get the pop up menu, select delete.
deleting exchange email account?
I set up an exchange account, but then I decided I wanted to delete it so I could set up the webmail account instead. I have no trouble deleting a gmail account, but for the exchange/outlook account it won't let me remove it. Any advice or suggestions? I'm tech retarded so if anybody has any suggestions, can they write it so a 12 year old could figure it out? Thanks!
Figured it out!!!
If you're having trouble deleting an exchange account... try this... worked for me:
Start-> Programs-> active sync ... from there, delete your account and it should auto delete it from your email accounts too. Good luck!

I have a similar issue, I set up a "hotmail" account that uses windows live, and even if I set the windows live scheduler to "manual" it still keeps connecting and syncing the phone.
I want to remove the hotmail account setup completely (I have 2 gmail accounts set up perfectly happily), but the "delete" option in Messaging > Options (where all the accounts are displayed), is always greyed out.
Unlike Outlook accounts, the Hotmail account is NOT available via Active Sync, so I can't get at it that way.
Can I remove this account by editing the registry??
AHA!! - I think I just did it! Go into Windows Live, select "Switch Accounts", and then on the first part of setting up a new account, hit the "Reject" button. Windows live disconnects the old account first, by the looks of it.

when i add contacts to my phonebook - how can i update them to my GMAIL account??

when i add contacts to my phonebook - how can i update them to my GMAIL account??
i tried doing UPDATE from the phone and nothing added to my GMAIL account
why is that so??
another thing -
how can i delete my GMAIL account from my phone? (i mean for my own settings like gmail address and password - lets say i want to sell my phone to other one.. without doing formats )
Don't know for the removing account, for the contact issue: Use google sync on your phone.
To remove your gmail account info, just do a "factory data reset" I believe it is in settings-sd card settings.
As for the gmail update, it should automatically do it, you need background data on and account sync, and obviously a connection to the network, either 3g or wifi
Hope that helps

Hi - I had this problem on my wife's HTC Legend - turns out that I'd inadvertantly set up the contacts as phone contacts rather than gmail contacts, so it wasn't syncing them.. I had to export them all and then reimport then as google contacts.. then it worked.
ok where can i set this settings ?

GMAIL Calendar not appearing in list

When I go to my GMAIL account setup, Calendar does not appear on the list (Contacts does). Does anyone know why and/or what I can do to make sure that Droid 2 sync's with my Google Calendar?
no worries.
Android only allows one account to sync calendar information. But, you're not out of luck. You can share all of the other accounts' calendars into the main (initial) gmail account you entered. I'm doing this with multiple calendars through the one main account, and it works great.
Go to the 'other' calendar accounts through a computer browser and share (full permission share) with the one account that is synced properly. It's easy, fun, and fulfilling!
From my research ... this solved it for me:
From a different forum ... this worked for me:
1. Go to 'my accounts' on droid 2
2. Click on 'create account'
3. choose google account
4. Follow the process for creating a new gmail acct not just adding your original to create a dummy account
5. Make sure all sync options are checked
6. Finalize account creation
7. Go to your calendar and create a new event using your ORIGINAL gmail acct not the new/dummy account
8. Save event
9. Go back into my accounts and check your original account sync options, calendar should now be there
10. Remove your dummy account from your phone
Awesome!!
Simple process and it works

[Q] Google Account Sync Contacts

Not sure if this is a lollipop issue, or if I just did not notice it in kit-kat, but, I went to create a contact on my phone the other day, and I always save them to my google account. When I saved the contact, It did not show up on the google web site as I expected it to. So I started to trouble shoot, and found the contact was saved to my phone. OK I did a factory reset on my phone shortly after the OTA upgrade, at which point i forgot to set my google account as the default to save contacts. Upon going to the contacts settings, under accounts, there is no google option. If i hit add I get Facebook, Exchange, or LDAP, no google option. If I got to the phone settings, goto accounts, google, and click my google account, there is no option to Synd Contacts, just sync people data??? Also if I go to my contacts app, create a new contact and change were it saves to, I only have Phone and Exchange Active Sync as options. What happen to saving to Google, am i missing something?? Anythoughts ??

Changed Google account password on desktop, do i have to change anything on my phone

Newbie question. I changed my Google [email protected] password on my desktop. But what on my phone needs the new password? I changed the password in app Email for account [email protected]. Do I have to change the password any place else on my phone? Seems that when i set the phone up originally i used this [email protected] as my google account. I can see in Settings -> Cloud and Accounts -> Accounts -> Google -> [email protected] as the google account for Sync data/calendar/contacts/ etc. The password must be stored somewhere on the phone to do this sync.
It will prompt on your phone to enter your new PW.
Try a sync and find out. Takes 5 seconds if not less.
