[QUOTE="Nanco, post: 1811265, member: 50325"] I have literally just finished resetting up the email accounts via the "Add Other Account" option and did get an email through for each account to confirm the activity. I logged into each Google account and confirmed that it was safe, however I still have this issue with the Google account sign in box in Internet Accounts. I've had no other form of security confirmations besides the emails. At this moment in time: -I can access mail without a problem (imap/smtp is working fine) -I am prompted for a password when attempting to access my address books (this just takes me to Internet Accounts and the Google sign in box which hangs after entering my email address) -I am prompted for a password when attempting to access the Apple Calendar (Google sign in box also). However, I actually use Fantastical instead which did prompt for password/Google permissions and does actually work fine. -I am prompted when attempting to access the Apple Notes app (back to the Google sign in box). All of the above are selected in Internet Accounts in System Preferences. My issue is that once I confirm the email address in the sign in box it just enters an infinite login loop and hangs unless I manually cancel. I cant even get as far as entering my password to complete any additional authentication steps. I did actually test a separate Gmail account that has never been used on my Apple computer before and this demonstrated the same issue. I dont think I mentioned this initially but I have managed to successfully set up all accounts on my Android phone, which leads me to believe that my Mac is at fault somehow and not the accounts themselves.
