Android Central Question
Hi All,
A bit of frustration here, but first let me confess that I am old and have difficulty with touch screen devices at the best of times. I just bought a new Samsung Galaxy Tab A model SMT580 and I can't seem to get past first base , well maybe second. On first power up it was able to connect to my Wifi. Then it asks me to log in with a Google account that has been used with this machine before. Well, it's a new machine, so don't have an account that has been used before, and for that matter, I didn't think I had a Google account, but that's not for lack of trying. After many attempts to sign in with what I think should work it looks like the machine gave up on me and said I should try again in 24 hours. That's a bit of a drag, but I can live with it if there is a chance that I can get it to work then. In the mean time I was able to create a Google account on my PC and after creation, actually be able to log in. I was also able to log in on my iPhone. The Tab A still won't let me log in, but the 24 hours hasn't expired yet. Any advice for this old newbie?
Thanks,
Robert Hiebert
