How to fix “Couldn't log in the selected account” when adding a work email?












0














In my Android phone, I'm trying to add a work email account to use Hangouts, but I keep getting an error with message:




Couldn't log in the selected account. Please check your account password and try again




The only two options are: Cancel or Try Again.



When I choose the option Try again, I continue to go in circle. Has anyone have seen this issue before? Please keep in mind that while I'm getting this error, I'm in Google Gmail and Calendar.nks.

  • Reading about others having same issue it might be an account syncing issue. Try to see if this works: Open your device's Settings app Settings app. Tap Users & accounts. Tap your account email Tap Account sync Make sure all your apps are set to sync
