October 3, 2014 at 8:49 pmI’m trying to create a canned response in Gmail desktop version on my galaxy note 10.1 2014 but for some reason I can’t paste pics in email body. Any suggestions?
Also having trouble posting pics in other Gmail apps on my device.

September 22, 2014 at 1:32 pmI have installed the gmail app on my galaxy note, but now it puts all my incoming emails in my inbox. On my last phone it automatically filtered my messages according to the labels I have on the PC-version of my gmail (so ‘social’, ‘promotions’,’updates’, etc.). Now it is not filtering the messages on my phone (so I have a vast quantity of emails that are not relevant from day-to-day and that I only read once a week for instance). I can see that I can make new filters on the phone – but that is a lot of work to get to the same system as I have already created in my online account (and I am sure it might get confused if I start applying labels to the emails coming in on my phone). How do I get the Note version of gmail to sync with the online version (including all my folers?).

September 22, 2014 at 10:40 pmUnder inbox category, you can choose inbox type as ‘primary’.

September 23, 2014 at 8:22 pmI don’t see ‘inbox category’ anywhere. I can select ‘priority sender inbox’ from the drop down menu on the top left – but that doesn’t have any messages in it. Where am I supposed to make this selection?
Simon says
September 24, 2014 at 12:00 amOpen Gmail app, tap the menu key (top left, 3 vertical dots, not the hardware key), tap settings (near the bottom), tap the Gmail account you want to set. You can find the inbox category there.

August 24, 2014 at 6:52 pmHow do you create a new label in gmail acct in the app on a phone. cannot figure out how to do
Simon says
August 25, 2014 at 12:38 amI think you need go to the web interface to add or remove labels. The Gmail app only allows you to manage the sync for each label.
You can go to the web interface in your pc or using web browser in your note 3.

April 16, 2014 at 6:37 pmI see the first sentence of a new email response from the inbox lost bit when I open it to read more, only my previous email to them appears.
Simon says
April 17, 2014 at 12:50 pmNot sure about it. I think it always opens the newest one in the thread.

March 31, 2014 at 4:12 amI have a Draft saved in my Gmail on the computer but it doesn’t show up on my note3 email app. How do I get my drafts to show up on my note3? Thanks for the help.
Simon says
March 31, 2014 at 12:07 pmWhy didn’t you use gmail app? There are no issues in sync drafts if you use Gmail app.
Email app may have this or that issue.

January 12, 2014 at 2:26 pmI just set up my new Note 3. When I use Gmail and view an email, and delete it, then application returns to the listing of emails and I have to manually open the next email. On my previous Galaxy Nexus, when I deleted an email, it would go to the next email – much faster/easier to use. I cannot change the settings either on the Note 3. Any suggestions – this really effects productivity.
Simon says
January 13, 2014 at 10:52 amThis is due to your Gmail settings.
Start Gmail app, tap menu (left) key. Go to Settings–General settings–Auto-advance. You current setting should be “conversation list”. Change to “newer” or “older” depending on your need.
