Hi,
I decided to dust off my old Nexus 7 2012 and pass it on to a family with an autistic son with some apps installed that hopefully would help him.
First off, I did a factory reset, signed in to my Google account, and loaded up a couple of free apps. So far, so good.
Then I attempted to load up an app from the Play store which required payment - clicked the pay button only to be advised of a server error.
I see that others have had the same experience, and removing / reinstalling your Google account may help. Tried this but soon got stuck.
Having selected the account, the menu only offers me sync now. There is no delete account option. So what to do - I am stuck.
Then I thought I would look in Play Store. When I selected my account, I was advised "unfortunately, Google Play Store has stopped". Tried this several times with the same result.
Does all this mean that my old Nexus is unuseable, or is there something I can do to rectify matters?
Please keep your answers simple to follow, I am a bit out of my comfort zone with all this.
