Andy - I guess I'm still not being clear but I just don't know another way
to state the problem. I've tried using Chrome with the laptop to sign in to
my wife's account, and it doesn't work. Only my account shows.

RE: The pages of Gmail instructions, I've tried each of the following -
quoting from the Google instructions:


*For those places you can’t use multiple sign-in, you have a few options:*

   - *Use different browsers for each of your accounts. For example: **Google
   Chrome* <https://www.google.com/chrome>* for your business Google
   Account and **Mozilla Firefox* <https://www.mozilla.org/firefox/new/>*
   for your personal Google Account. Not sure what a web browser is? **Find
   out* <http://www.whatbrowser.org/>*.*
   - *Use Google Chrome's incognito window
   <https://support.google.com/chrome/answer/95464> to sign in to your second
   account.** Be aware that your browsing history won’t be saved when you
   use the incognito window.*
   - *Use multiple profiles on Chrome. **Learn more*
   <https://support.google.com/chrome/answer/2364824>*.*
   - *Sign out of all your Google Accounts and then sign in to the account
   you want to access.*

**None** of them work, except for signing in to Chrome. Elsewhere on that
page there's a paragraph which states that some Google applications won't
work with more than one identity. Apparently Gmail is one of those. Too bad.

I can use the Chrome browser, create a new Chrome identity for my wife, and
that works, temporarily. However, once she signs in using Chrome, I am
"automatically" signed out of all my Google applications - Gmail and
Calendar.

This seems pretty buggy. If we only had one computer, that would be okay.
But often, we both need to use computers at the same time, one of us on the
desktop and the other on the laptop.

I think my wife will have to go back to AOL mail.

Bill
