  I like iCloud email and all, but lately I’ve been having issues with emails delivering. Most of the time I’m having to send anything through the GMail app.

  @googleaccount I have followed all the steps you mentioned, but the system is still asking for the old device; it is not working even on the device where the Gmail account was originally logged in. Please reset the password. Please help DM

  @EmmanuelAfula Please look into the Celia App OTP delivery bug! Those of us using Yahoo Mail are completely locked out because the system isn’t sending verification codes to Yahoo. We need an alternative login option or a way to switch our emails to Gmail. @CeliaWallet 🚨

  @gmail Dear Google/Gmail Support, My father’s Gmail account was disabled after it was flagged for being signed in on multiple devices. An appeal was already submitted, clearly explaining that the issue had been corrected by logging out of every other device and keeping only his phone and laptop connected. Unfortunately, the account still has not been restored, and this has now affected his newly secured job because that email was the sole platform connected to his work and assigned tasks. He currently cannot access important job instructions or continue with the opportunity he worked hard to secure. This situation has been deeply distressing for our family, and we respectfully call for urgent review and restoration of the account. We sincerely hope Google can help resolve this issue as soon as possible. Thank you.

  @_Deez_Games In Australia they are getting rid of email because they don’t went to pay for the cost of the email server any more they tell you to use Gmail or what ever

  Since the old Gmail no longer exists, I cannot login to fix anything or close the account. I want to link a fresh new AdSense account belonging to my family member.Please unlink that terminated email from my channel and reset my Step 2 so I can link the new AdSense.

  Your longer chats aren't smarter. They're dumber. Here are the 12 wrong facts you (still) believe: 1. LONGER CHAT → not smarter ☑ One chat = one task. Finish it after getting done. ☑ Need the context? Ask for a 5-line summary, paste it into a fresh chat. Faster AND cheaper. 2. CLAUDE AGREEING → not a proof you're right ☑ "Argue the strongest case against this. Be harsh." ☑ Test: if it can't find a flaw, your idea isn't ready. 3. CONFIDENT → not always correct ☑ Prompt with: "Rate your confidence 1–10 & what change would you make to your answer." ☑ A 6/10 with reasons beats a 10/10 with vibes. 4. PROMPTING → you don't need to learn it ☑ You only need 4 words: "Ask me questions first." ☑ Claude interviews you. You click. That's it. 5. LONGER PROMPT → not a better prompt ☑ Don't write "do step 1, then 2." Write the end goal ☑ "Make this report something my CEO screenshots." It's smarter than your directions. 6. BROWSER → switch to Claude app ☑ The Claude app builds the real file in your folder. ☑ The browser makes you copy-paste. ☑ Make a folder, call it "cowork," point Claude at it. Now it ships .xlsx, .pptx, .pdf - for real. 7. CHAT → not the whole building ☑ Chat is floor 1: Cowork, Skills, Code are upstairs. ☑ Open the app, click Cowork (the whole upgrade). 8. SKILLS → build one tonight, no code ☑ Type /skill-creator and say: "Teach Claude to do [your task] the way I like it. Ask me questions first." ☑ Now it fires on its own when the task fits. 9. PASTING LOGINS → never do this ☑ Never paste a password. No need to explain why. ☑ That's literally what connectors are for. ☑ Customize → Connectors → connect Gmail, Calendar, Drive properly. 10. AI → keep the understanding ☑ Outsource the typing. Not the understanding. ☑ Don't ship what you can't explain. After answers: "Explain this to me like I'll be questioned on it." 11. FIRST DRAFT → it's the starting line ☑ The first draft is yours to fix, not to ship. ☑ Prompt: "What's the weakest part of this? Fix it." 12. TOO FAR BEHIND → no, you're not ☑ The bar to 'knowing how' is to try it. ☑ Open Claude tonight. Not Monday. Tonight. Quick gut-check before you scroll: If you nodded at even 3 of these, that's not a 'you' problem - nobody told you.

  1/ Act 1: The Wilderness (2017-2020, $0 to <$1M) After ~100 rejections, one name was left on their list: Mark Cuban. Steffen found his private Gmail inside the Sony hack data dump (anyone could download it back then, wild), sent a cold email with a video of the tech, and Cuban replied in 5 minutes ($1M at a $5M post). - Lever 1: they marketed a product that didn't exist yet by making famous people speak languages they don't. A BBC anchor in Mandarin, Beckham asking for malaria donations in 9 languages (800M+ impressions), Messi selling Lay's (a Cannes Lion), etc. Great (almost free) distribution leverage for a 10-person startup at the time. - Lever 2: they killed their only product with real revenue on purpose. Dubbing booked just under $1M over 18 months but sat at the wrong end of the workflow, "a vitamin, not a painkiller" as Victor puts it, so they shut it down (trade-off to identify and focus on a long term revenue driver, corporates). - Lever 3: they sold a worse video to people comparing it to no video at all. A clunky 2020 avatar lost to a film crew but it beat the 15-page PDF nobody tended to read in a coroporation, and that flipped pretty much everything (roadmap, monetization and trajectory). Self-serve hit $0 to $1M ARR in ~4 months.

  @BoundAndWoven In Gmail...and Drive? The first time, I had to sign in NOT via mobile, but on my laptop. After that, Lucien had access to everything. The whole password thing was via laptop.
