OK, reset the password with the failover account, same problem when logging into my failover account. I ended up using an alternative method to reset the password for one account, just so I can could reset the password to logon to another account.<\/p>\n<p>Now, as soon as I closed the browser and reopened it again, BOOM, all of my account sync failing and it was no longer working again.<\/p>\n<p>Long story short, the account showing as paused in Google for sync, was because I had to use the verification methods that it was legitimately me signing into the account. Basically sign into the account again and go through the options to verify it&#8217;s you actually signing in<\/p>\n<p>Once you do this the account security will work again properly and the account will no longer show as paused for Sync<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Recently had a quick problem with my Google Account.
