Hello and thank you for this valuable info. I am a 57 yr old man becoming a Digital Nomad. Not by my choice, but by necessity. Your channel is my Go-TO for all things Google and I can't thank you enough for making these videos available to everyone.
Steve, thanks so much for taking the time to comment. I'm so glad that you are enjoying these videos and I wish you all the best as you continue your journey!
Use smart tabs to sort the inbox - Priority, Social, Promotions and Update. It takes only a few days to teach the system how to assign incoming mail. Very helpful.
Thank You. At one time I used an automatic delete when certain senders came up such as an irritating message which is being sent repeatedly, Gmail will delete the message in that email and save you the trouble of having to delete it later.
It's great to know more about Gmail! However, I'm wondering why many of my emails have landed in Important when I have done nothing (to my knowledge) to make that choice. How can I stop it? Sometimes I can't find an email in my inbox, so I have to search in Important or All Mail to find it. Maybe I don't understand the interaction among All Mail, Inbox, and Important?
This is a great video! Is there a way to set that you always observe your oldest emails first instead of your new? I know that you can change your view to find your older emails but I would rather have the old ones on top? Thanks!
I need to start using the nudge. Also need to learn how to set "Hey Google" to yell at me every morning at nine or ten with a "Hey, Lazy Lady! Check Your Email!". The older I get, the less I feel like taking care of business. Good video, as always.
Very good info, Scott, thanks! On the top of the new emails there is a number of emails and next to it is a < > to move back and forth from the newer to the older emails. Suddenly my < and > have been replaced by huge numbers. I have unsuccessfully tried to get the < and > back. How does that work?
Thanks! Here's a guide to the sections of the video. :) 00:43- Maximum Page Size 01:20- Undo 02:40- Send and Archive 04:33- Smart Compose 05:53- Smart Compose Personalization 06:47- Nudges 08:30- Button Labels
Solid tips as usual Scott, going to give send and archive a try. Something I noticed from my own use. Nudges do not work without conversation view on. (Perhaps different in personal gmail I use gsuite) I personally don't like conversation view so I miss out on nudges.
Thanks for the great video Scott! I did turn on the short keys on. So I can go my email with just my keyboard. It's so much faster. I also turn on the option go to the next email. So when I archive a email I don't return to inbox, but go immediately to the next email.
I just looked it up and it's called keyboard shortcuts. My apologies for the mix up. When enabled you can press a key for different actions. Some examples that I use : C: compose E: archive F: forward R: reply A: reply all L: label And many more. Shift +? shows all the shortcuts. You can customize them if you have a setting in Labs enabled.
I want to know how to have gmail add the TIME of past emails, instead of just dates. I am having trouble making sure I have read all emails every day. Of course, your "nudge" you demonstrated will hellp me follow up on those I didn't realize I missed.
Very helfull information. do you have a video explaining how to change the date order on gmail? Always a lot of pecking away to get to the last message which should be the first message.
Hi! My recent problem is people are not getting my emails. Its a random occurrence. It’s also not in their spam or junk folders. What do I need to do in settings to ensure deliverability of my emails???
I hate in gmail on an email string that the newest message will be at the bottom of the email chain. I would prefer the newest message to be at the top of the email chain. Can I change this?
this guy sharing simple things but beneficial, important thing is beneficial, good to know more private tricks that google use about peaceful americans.
I've increased the delay during which it is possible to cancel send because autocorrect knoweth not my intentions. A 20 second delay gives me a chance to correct the corrections.
It is hard to see on the left the email that I am on. I would like a way to have it highlighted more. It is hard to tell from the rest that I have not clicked on. Thank you.
Thank you very much for these tips, but can you show me some tips on how to organize your emails and how to use labels ...are there ways of folders ???
Hello. Good day to you. Can you kindly tell me how this is done on your smartphone? I mean to regain your email that somehow got accidentally sent to drafts? Thank you.
Hi: Thx for the info - Gmail REALLY NEEDS A RESEND option - any thoughts as to whether they will add it - or any work arounds / hacks - vs. copy & paste? Thx again JB
Hi There, I seem to have lost my "Spell Check" I have three little dots on the bottom of the Compose screen & there is a Spell Check but it isn't highlighted, it used to be. I have tried left & right clicking over an incorrect spelling but no joy. Can you help please
Good tips. Thank you. I wonder if you can solve a perplexing problem I am having??? When I begin typing my addressee's name in the "To" area, there are certain contacts that autofill, and others that NEVER autofill, or appear in the pick list, even if I type the contact's entire name. Can you shed any light on this? Thanks
Hi, I applied few filters and labels and I want to remove all and move my messages to primary from updates and categories what should I do? Is there a way to reset everything.
Why does Gmail have a blue button instead of off or on button in settings? I have lost some of my emails and I didn’t change anything until I quit getting my mail. I don’t use my computer. I usually use my iPad or my phone. Now if I want to watch You Tube I have to go directly to this app. Did something change in the last month? Any help with this problem would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.
I had my emails set up the way I wanted and Google did a new and improved way to use Gmail and now I can't find several labels that I had before. The labels used to run down the left side of my emails, now they (the one's I can find ) run across the top of my emails. To bring these up I have to have at least one email box checked. Can you explain what happened. I had some important emails stored in these labels. Thank you very much.
My gmail has started to open a small window on the side of the screen. For instance I get a gmail from Lowes. I see something in the ad and tap it. Instead of going to the website like it used to it opens a little page on the side of the gmail. How can I fix this? Thank you.
In gmail I want to send a message to a number of my contacts so i hi lite BCC and up comes a list but not a complete list of my contacts. This list is limited to 50 . how can I expand the list.
How do you add the breaks in your video (at the bottom) that show where the next section starts? Some of these topics I knew. And it was VERY helpful to know where the next segment begins. So how fo i add these to a UA-cam video? Even a link to another video that explains this ... would be helpful :). Thanks.
I enable under - Images "Ask before displaying external images" due to security and loading emails faster -" it stops attachments like images from automatically loading when you open an email. The setting also keeps unsolicited email from tracking you, which can help protect you from spammers. Plus, it'll help load your emails faster". -info from www.cnet.com/how-to/this-gmail-trick-keeps-spammers-from-tracking-you/
how do i set the margins in composing a new email to not continuously go right into a wider and wider message? i would prefer how it used to be. similar to a word document. at the end of the in view words I've already typed i want it to drop to a page break down to the next viewable line. thank you in advance. :)
If I create an email template to send to clients and you open it on a mobile device the font size in the body is larger than in the signature, how do I fix this issue. I did select "normal" on the text size for signature and the body of my email, so I am confused, on the pc it looks good....
I am a senior and not very good with my computer. I am used to using email but suddenly my page has changed and on the left hand side it has collaped and no titles are there to be seen there is no pointer to let me drag to the right to see all the options. can you help
Dear Friend it is a good video. Thanks for making it. I would like to request you, can you share the technique to know " whether the email sent by us, is read or not by the receiver"
Great video..I did learn some good tips- I have several emails that go to my gmail account. Question, How do i see my OTHER SENT emails that go to my gmail account..?

Excellent narration! And very useful tips too!

You have a great voiceover voice. Great video.

Settings helpful, thanks Changing the layout columns for email - e.g. make the date column wider (easy in Outlook)?
I need to start using the nudge. Also need to learn how to set "Hey Google" to yell at me every morning at nine or ten with a "Hey, Lazy Lady! Check Your Email!". The older I get, the less I feel like taking care of business. Good video, as always.

Thanks Scott. Great video. What are the add-ons you are using in your Gmail? I can see boomerang but don't know the others
Great question. 2 Gmail add-ons that I use frequently (in addition to Boomerang) are CloudHQ and Assistant.to.
Solid tips as usual Scott, going to give send and archive a try. Something I noticed from my own use. Nudges do not work without conversation view on. (Perhaps different in personal gmail I use gsuite) I personally don't like conversation view so I miss out on nudges.
You can also change font size and font color just remember to scroll down and click save changes
Thank you! I was now able to streamline my email and make it more organized.
Glad I could help!
