Issue 1: I turned on one of our computers that I hadn't used since enabling 2-step verification. I (properly) couldn't get into Gmail unless I signed in. (I have created a shortcut on the computer to allow me to go directly into Gmail. Don't know if this info is helpful to you.) No problem--provided my password and got my verif. code and instructed not to require codes in the future on this computer.
Then, when I opened the blue-and-white Google icon on my taskbar, I saw I again had to sign in to get into Gmail. So I again provided my password, got my code, and instructed not to require codes in the future on this computer. Why did I have to sign into my Google account twice, a few minutes apart? Issue 2: When I successfully got into my Gmail via the blue-and-white icon previously mentioned, I typed "d" because it is the shortcut I always use to get full-screen for composing my emails. However, and this still is the case until I clear it, I received notification a pop-up blocker might be "preventing the application from opening the page." Further, at the bottom was another message that "Internet Explorer blocked a pop-up from mail.google.com." I don't understand why IE is involved since Chrome is my default browser, and I opened Gmail via the Google icon previously described on my taskbar. Also, if I simply click on the Compose bar instead of using the "d" shortcut, I can go right into the composing page and go full-screen from there. No pop-up blocker. The subject line of this post says it all for me. After all my problems and confusion with enabling 2-step verification (approx. 2 weeks' worth) and now these. I suspect Issue 1 is related to 2-step. Help (again)! *~Diane* -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Gmail-Users" group.
