    I've been using Google Chrome ever since it came out and this problem never happened, but started two or three days ago, whenever I log into my GMail account, I get an error message:
    [​IMG]

    I've tried logging out and logging back in and it doesn't work. I tried opening GMail on I.E. and FireFox and it works perfectly fine...

    Any input on what I should do?

    Does anyone else use your computer? if yes they may be signing into a different gmail user account.

    Otherwise, it looks like Chrome isn't remembering your password
    - First clear any gmail passwords
    Click the wrench icon in the upper right > options > personal stuff > show saved passwords > then delete any gmail passwords
    Then make sure you have "offer to save passwords" checked off

    Yes my friend may have used my computer... And I tried what you wrote, and it didn't fix the problem.

    Possible miscommunication here.
    when I say "Then make sure you have "offer to save passwords" checked off", I mean ensure that it is turned on.

    If it is turned on and your still having problems try clearing your browser data and starting again.
    wrench > options > Personal Stuff Tab > clear browsing data
    using chrome sign in to gmail, save your password, close chrome, open chrom, go to gmail sign in, see if that works.
