I just got a message when signing into a site that Open ID 2 with Google is ending:    Will this affect me signing into the network with my Google Account?

Apparently, for some reason, . I got this notice while logging in with Disqus, but not with Stack Exchange.  So... is Stack Exchange going to be affected by this? Do I need, or want, to add extra login methods to my Stack Exchange account to ensure I can still log in come April?

I am unable to log on to . I receive the following error as soon as I try "Log in using Google". (This is the same Gmail account I use for Stack Exchange.)     'key' is not valid for passed 'access_token', token not found.     On my Android Device (Galaxy S4 4.4.2), I have two Google accounts – will this have an effect, or am I missing a step in order to log on with a Google account using the Stack Exchange Android app?

I added gmail to my google account. Now when i try to log into stack exchange using google it prompts me to create a new account instead of using the existing.   The google account is still the same but google changed the primary email adress.  How can i log in again?

to  reminded me of something I have been trying to work out how to do for a while.  At the moment I just have one SO/SX account with one OpenID and both work and personal accounts all linked together. This is easy and simple, but means that during the day I get Inbox notifications for things which I only want to deal with out of work hours. Similarly, at home I get notifications for things which I want to deal with at work.  So, I'm considering trying to separate my work and personal Stack Exchange worlds, but I'm not even sure if this is possible now the accounts are all linked, without creating all new SX accounts.  I suspect that at the very least I will have to create a new OpenID with a different OpenID provider, add this openID to all of my personal accounts, update my display names on all of those accounts and then remove the original OpenID from them, but what else might I have to do?  Will switching them to another OpenID be enough? Or will the accounts all still be linked together? Has anyone done this, and if so, are there any issues I need to consider?  Note, I'm aiming for the two sets of SX sites to be completely disjoint. No site in my professional account will also be in my personal account and vice-versa, so no problems with appearing to be a sock-puppet. Also, obviously, I don't want to have create entirely new accounts for the SX sites I consider personal and have to start acquiring rep on them from scratch.

I can't seem to log in with my Stack Exchange OpenID. When I try, I get the error message:     Unable to log in with your OpenID provider:      The openid.return_to parameter (.) does not match the actual URL (.) the request was made with.   It works if I disable the HTTPS-Everywhere plugin in Firefox, but if I then re-enable the plugin and go to a site on which I am not logged in (in which case login is normally nearly seamless), it fails again with the same error message, or at least something very similar.  I'm not aware of having done anything that might have caused this, although I will admit I don't recall seeing https:// in the address bar on Stack Exchange before (I do now, and that's a good thing IMO!). I was using the site  and it worked fine then, but not now...

Why does Gmail website hide options like "links", "smileys" etc. under a '+' sign when there is clearly enough room along the footer? Am I missing something, or is google really pushing google+?  Example:    When you put your mouse over the + button, it looks like this (with the mouse being on the icon with the tooltip)

I have been facing a serious problem for many months. Usually I get a 2-factor authentication code from 51501 when I am supposed to log into Gmail. But for months I am getting a code from a Sweden-based mobile number: +46701327805. The first code I received from this number was in October 2015.  There is also a mobile number from USA that sometimes sends the code. I change my passwords every time this happens. What could be the possible reason for this and how to overcome this problem?   By the way, I must say I have been hacked for years. I don't use VPN; my internet runs off a broadband modem.

I have been playing for almost 2 days, and today it is asking me to sign up again.  I have all my game saved in my google account, but I wonder if I just log in from a trainer account will I keep my progress?

Maybe I'm just missing something obvious, but what's up with this syntax? Is it because people sign up with e-mail addresses and use those for logging in, but don't bother giving themselves custom names (or completing their profile in any way)?

I have a registration form, name, email, password. I also offer the Facebook connection and in the future all other Open ID ways but for now I would focus on the regular process:  Currently, I require the password confirmation and then I send an email to confirm the email address.  But I really also like the Tumblr way which grants full functionality even without email confirmation, and so with your email+password entered you are into the site in literally 30 seconds...  So my question is: what are the best practices and in terms of metrics/stats if it is better to allow an easy process but with the risk of high volume of fake, wrong, incomplete accounts OR ask more initially so those users who complete the process are "quality users"?  (I hope my question was clear, sorry for my English.)

After the top bar changes in the , when a non logged-in user click the Sign Up button, instead of navigating to the corresponding page it displays the openid related code in the screen.  Screenshots for reference:

When you create Stack Exchange accounts and you want them tied to a Google account, when you log into your Google account you get taken to a separate page where it asks for permission and whether you want the setting to be remembered.  I am wondering how I can access the page which lists what accounts are tied to my Google account and have set to remember.   I think it's about time I went in and see what accounts I am not using and get rid of them.

I was Active in Arabic SE before it was closed days ago. Though I still see messages and achievements in my inbox that's related to it.  In deleted questions, all go hidden and that's good. Why not doing the same for Closed sites?    because this, the Android app is getting crash at every time I check inbox or achievements.

For most OpenID options, it doesn't much matter if you pick the "Sign up" versus the "Log in" tab on the sign in page.  Whether you have an account on the site or not, it just does the right thing. Not so if you are using the Stack Exchange OpenID service:    (Bonus bug: the reCAPTCHA box is a bit too wide for the expanded "Sign up using Stack Exchange" container.)  Since we already have collected an email and password (well, two copies of the password), could we not check to see if they match and automagically log the user into their SE OpenID?  If not, the error needs to be reworded somehow to explain that while the email might have been used to create a Stack Exchange OpenID, that doesn't mean they can't log in with that OpenID to create an account.  Counterintuitively, they need to use the  even if they've never had an account there before.  The  link adds to the confusion since it sends an email that leads off with:     Someone requested an account recovery on The Workplace Stack Exchange for jericson@stackexchange.com, but we don't have an account on this site that matches this email address.   (For people with accounts on other sites and/or Stack Exchange OpenIDs, this paragraph is followed by other instructions that would probably work if followed. By that time I imagine many users are at wit's end.)  To simplify: If a user already has a Stack Exchange OpenID (likely because they have an account on another site) they should be able to use the  to sign up for an account or there should be clear instructions on what to do next if they fail.

I tried to search for similar questions, as I always do, but was not able to find one. I just created a new  on Data.Stack Exchange with my existing Google OpenID and it seems to be not associated with my regular Stack Exchange account. Is this by design? and if so, why?

NOTE: Signing up or Logging in via OpenID is no longer officially supported from any of our sites. Currently,  is still on the internet, but we are in the process of completely removing it.    Stack Overflow was an early and strong supporter of . We built our sign up/log in flow around it. We were idealistic and had , but these hopes weren't realized. Over the years people have wondered if  is . We've had to remove support as OpenID providers  or .  The time has come to part ways. The reality is OpenID support has created a ton of complexity in our codebase and the number of users actively using OpenID simply don't justify that cost. Users have spoken with their actions. You prefer Google, Facebook and Stack Exchange (aka email/PW) based account auth.     Of our 9,813,747 accounts around one-tenth of a percent are actively using OpenID (defined as having visited a site in the past 12 months). If you include all the inactive accounts it is still less than 2.9% of all accounts.  So, what is the plan?   DONE - Remove the ability to create a new account with most OpenID providers DONE - Add the ability to  DONE - Convert Launchpad (used on  ) to OAuth DONE - Remove creating new accounts with Steam from  (Steam removed support for OAuth. Only 454 accounts that use Steam have visited Arqade in the past 6 months.) DONE - We will email all users that rely on deprecated OpenID credentials and request that they  DONE - Run an announcement banner for any user who signs in with deprecated OpenID credentials urging them to  DONE - End support for logging in via OpenID  In progress - Remove  (note: only 0.2% of authorized sites in the last year have been non-Stack Exchange sites.)   Obviously, if your account relies on OpenID, then make life easy and go now and .   If you've forgotten what you credentials you use to login, then  to refresh your memory. If you don't see one of the three account types shown in the image below (Google, Facebook or Stack Exchange) then click the "add more logins" button to add one of them to your account.    Remember, SE OpenID accounts are really email/pw accounts handled through complicated OpenID code path. They will be migrated to a simpler email/pw only code path as a part of this change. No extra work required on your part.

I configured my Google account on El Capitan (OS X 10.11.2) using Internet Accounts and it worked fine for a while. However, after a restart the system asked again for the password and 2-factor authentication code, which I provided, but then I get stuck in the following window after entering my password and code:    In the above window, if I hit Cancel and then try to select anything in the Google account I get the message "Unable to verify account name or password."  If I delete the account and add it again I'm asked for my password and 2-factor authentication code, but after providing them I get stuck in the following window - notice that the Done button turned grey after pressing it, and the dialog never closed after that:     I already tried starting my system in safe mode, with the same results. What's happening? Any help will be greatly appreciated!
