my gmail accounts are not syncing properly. it is set to fetch every 15 minutes, and for the past 2 days, the only way for me to receive my new emails is if i do a manual refresh. i saw the other posts, however none of them seem to give a good reason or fix, please help thanks

perhaps your background data is not set up...
Try settings>accounts and sync

background data should be checked . also make sure auto sync is checked.
select the account that you want to auto sync from the list below
this will give you options to what features you want to auto sync

Yes, assuming background data is enabled, unchecking the account in question, and re-checking it might help. Also, have you powered your phone off and back on lately?

If it's not your primary Gmail account, you could try removing and re-adding it.

Another possibility that might be a bit of a stretch...is your Gmail app updated to the latest version? If not, go to the market and download the latest version. It could be worth a shot.

Good luck.

found two issues, one was posted on another forum: placed android power widget and clicked the sync icon, as it was off, dunno why or how. second issue i downloaded i purchased toggle settings pro and had made profiles and they dont automatically come set with auto sync checked off so i went through them all and checked them off, so far so good.
thanks
