Gmail.com is a sample postal service. Therefore, I created my personal, main mailbox on Gmail.com, although by that time I had about five e-mail addresses from other mail services.
I love the ease of use, reliability, and capacity of my Gmail.com inbox. By registering a mailbox on Gmail, you get the opportunity, with the same login and password, to access other Google services: the most popular video hosting YouTube, calendar, Google Docs and many other useful services.
Registering with Gmail.com
To register in Gmail in Russian, go to the official website https://mail.google.com.
A login window will appear. Google account.
In order to log in, you need to enter the mobile phone number or email address specified during registration. But since you are not registered yet, click the More options link 
From the options provided, select Create an account.
A page will open with a form that you must fill out. 
We fill out the form.
- What is your name. Here I advise you to indicate your real First and Last Name. Because other Google services, including those on your smartphone, will be associated with this account. I think this will be your main inbox for a long time! If you need a temporary mailbox, then you can follow my tutorial in a few minutes.
- Create a username. This will be the name of your mailbox and login to your account. You will have to work hard to find a clear and memorable name. After all, names like olga, nina, ivan have been taken for a long time. Substitute names, and the system will tell you whether this name is occupied or free. To create a name, you can use letters of the Latin alphabet, numbers and dots.
- Create a password. The password must have at least eight characters. For security reasons, it is not recommended to use passwords from other sites.
- Confirm the password. To make sure you entered the password correctly, enter the password again. If the system displays that the passwords do not match, check whether the keyboard layout is set correctly. There must be Latin letters, not Russian.
- Date of Birth. Select from the drop-down list.
- Floor. Selected from the list.
- Mobile phone number - necessary for more reliable account protection. If important documents are stored in your mailbox, you can allow login to your account only after receiving an SMS with a password on your mobile phone. Also, if you forget your password, you can request an SMS with a code to change your password.
- A spare email address is necessary for more reliable account protection. For example, if suspicious activities are noticed in your account, the gmail administration will be able to send an alert to this address.
- Make Google mine home page. If you check the box, then when you open the browser, it will always appear search system Google. But many users make their favorite site their home page. Then, you don’t need to check the box here, otherwise your page will be replaced with a Google page.
- A country. Select the country in which you currently live from the list.
After filling out the form, click Next. 
The Privacy Policy and Terms of Use page opens. Read (scroll down the page) and click the “I Accept” button. 
The "Verify your account" window will open. Enter your mobile phone number and click the "Continue" button. 
A window will appear to enter the Confirmation Code, which will be sent to you via SMS. If the code does not arrive within 15 minutes, try again. I managed to complete the registration the third time. After entering the code, click the Continue button. 
You will be congratulated on your successful registration and asked to log into your Gmail account. Click the "Go to Gmail service" button and start getting acquainted with your new mailbox.

- how to switch to other Google services?
Login to gmail.com
If you have already registered, then to log into Gmail, click the link mail.google.com
In the window that opens (Fig. 1), enter the Email or mobile phone number associated with your account and click Next. By the way, you can enter not the entire email address, but only the login - without @gmail.com
A password entry field will appear. Enter your password, click "Next" and your mailbox will open in front of you.
Sign in to other Google services
By registering with your email, you can use this username and password to log into any Google service. 
While in your Gmail account on the right top corner, click the square (shown by the red arrow). A window with many buttons will open (see Figure 5). By clicking the desired button, you will be taken to the most popular Google services: Calendar, YouTube, Search, Maps.
And by clicking the link More, you will see buttons to other Google services, for example, Docs.
Gmail.com (Gmail or gmail) is the world's largest email site. He belongs Google search engine and here you can create a box for free, and also get a Google account with it. And that means Disk, YouTube, Google Play, access to other services.
1 . Open the website gmail.com. Click on “Create an account” below.
2. Fill out the form on the right side.
First and last name. Here you need to provide your details, preferably real ones. After all, if you suddenly have difficulties logging into the mailbox in the future, then thanks to this information you will be able to regain access. If desired, this data can later be hidden.
Username. A very important field - this will be the name of your mailbox (login). It should consist only of English letters; you can also use numbers and dots. You just need to come up with it and print it.
This is the email address (e-mail) where letters will be sent. This is exactly what you will need to tell the person so that he can send you something.
There may be problems choosing a username. The fact is that each such login is unique - it belongs to only one person. And many names have already been registered, which means they cannot be selected.
Let's say I want to get the umnik login. I type it into the field and press the Enter button on the keyboard. The system does not allow such a name - it says it is too short.
Okay, so I add a couple more letters and press Enter. But Google doesn’t like it again: it turns out that this name has already been taken by someone.
Just below the system shows logins that are free for registration. Google automatically combined them from my first and last name, and also added something similar to what I came up with.
You can choose any of them. But I advise you to work a little more and choose something better - shorter and easier to remember. The fact is that this name will no longer be changed.
Of course, you can then register another mailbox and set up mail forwarding to it from the old address. But why such difficulties if you can immediately choose a normal name.
To simplify the task, after entering the desired login, press the Enter button and see what the system offers. It will show a different free title after each click. Maybe something will do.
If the name is free for registration, then after pressing Enter, the field for entering it will not be highlighted in red.
Many people don't realize at first how important it is to have a good address. Of course, if mail is needed not for correspondence, but for something else (registration in Google Play, for example), then any name will do. But if you plan to receive letters to it, then the address is very, very important.
Ideally, it should be simple and not too long, so that it can be dictated over the phone. Preferably without numbers and dots. And no “babies”, “beauties” and “pussies”!
It’s very funny when a serious guy’s business card says puzatik45.
Password and password confirmation. Here you need to print an alphanumeric code with which you will open your box. It can only contain letters of the English alphabet and numbers, and must be at least eight characters long. It is highly desirable that the letters be of different case (both large and small) - this will make it more difficult for hackers to hack the mailbox.
Be sure to write this password down in a safe place!
It’s been verified: it’s forgotten instantly, but you simply won’t be able to log into your email without it.
Date of birth, gender. These fields are also required. Information from them will not be used anywhere. As with the first/last name, it is better to indicate your real data. This will make it easier to regain access to the mailbox if problems arise with logging in.
Other information. Mobile phone, spare email address mail and country - this data may not be specified.
3. After filling in all required fields, click “Next”. If the system does not let you in, it means that some field is not filled in as it should. It will be highlighted in red, and just below it will be written what is wrong with it.
4 . A window will appear in which the conditions for registering with gmail.com will be written. They must be accepted, otherwise you will not receive the box.
The “I Accept” button will become available only after you have read them.
That's all! The mailbox is registered and Google is happy to provide its address. We write it down in a safe place and click on “Go to Gmail service”.
Immediately after this, your new mail will open.
E-mail address
If you carefully read what I said before, you should remember the username. I said that this is exactly the address of your email box. But this is not entirely true: every email on the Internet has one more part in addition to the login. In the case of Google, this is @gmail.com
It turns out that the correct name of the email account consists of the username (login) and the prefix @gmail.com. And this address must be one continuous word without spaces. There is no period at the end.
An example of a correctly written address:
This is the full name that needs to be dictated to people, written on business cards, websites and other places. If you give a person only a shortened version, he will not be able to send the letter - it simply will not arrive. But only the address must be your own, and not the one written in this picture :)
How to find out your mailbox address
Once you are in your new box, Google welcomes you and briefly talks about the capabilities of mail. We close this window - it will not appear again.
To find out your email address on Gmail, you need to click on the icon with the letter of your name at the top right. A small window will appear where it will be written.
How to log in to your email after registration
Okay, we have a box. But how to get into it after a while: a day, two, a month, a year...
It's very simple: usually an Internet program (browser) remembers the data from the mail and downloads it automatically. You only need to open Google website, and in the upper right corner click on the picture with small squares, where you select the mail icon.
Immediately after this, your mailbox should open with new and old letters. And if suddenly the Internet program forgets the data from the mail, then you will need to enter it.
Why do you need a Gmail email account?
Of course, first of all, mail is needed to send and receive emails. In addition to text, you can send documents, photos and other files.
If, when you try to log into Gmail mail (it doesn’t matter from a computer or mobile device) you are having problems or seeing a message that says “Add Gmail to your Google Account” and “Name is already taken. Try something else,” this article should help you solve this problem.
The reasons that you cannot log into your email from Google may be different, and therefore I will give several possible solutions, and I hope to help all those who are here and reading these instructions.
Logging into Gmail.com - first steps
After this, the very first thing you should try is to clear all the history (cookies) of your browser. From the reviews of several users on the Internet, this is what helped them.
If it worked, great, if not, read on:
- Click on the following link: Sign in to Gmail
- A Gmail login form will appear, where one of your addresses will already be entered. And below there will be a link “Login to another account” or "Sing in with a different account"(if yours is in English) - click on it.
- After this, all your addresses will be displayed, including the one you need. Select an address, enter a password and log in to your mailbox. If an empty login form appears instead of addresses, enter the required address, password and log in.
This option is also possible if, when you try to log into your mail, a window appears Add Gmail to your Google Account and the message “This name is already taken. Try something else."
On the same page, where you get the answer “Name is already taken,” there is a circle with a person in the upper right corner (or with your avatar). Click on it and select Add an account. Next, enter your address, password and click Login.
Account information
I think it would be a good idea to once again make sure that you enter all the data necessary to log into your mail correctly. Passwords are very case sensitive, so make sure you don't have the Caps Lock key enabled. Also check that the username is correct i.e. email address, which is written down to @gmail.com.
Let me know in the comments how it turned out for you.
Logging into your Gmail account is quite easy. But first you need to create your account on this service.
