Go to the "Online Accounts" dialog; the menu with your name at the top |
23 |
right of the screen, select "Online Accounts". Alternatively, go to |
24 |
System Settings (Windows key, type "settings", it should appear), and |
25 |
select "Online Accounts". Click on the "+" button to add an account, |
26 |
select Google (right now the only available, I believe), click "Add", |
27 |
and a kinda-browser form will appear, where you should enter your |
28 |
Google mail, and your password. You cick "sign", and Google will |
29 |
notify you that GNOME is trying to access your accounts. You click |
30 |
"grant access", and then select which Google services you want to |
31 |
handle with GNOME (mail, calendar, chat, etc.) Then in the menu with |
32 |
your name at the top right of the screen, select "Available". |
33 |
|
34 |
Afterwards you open Empathy (Windows key, type "empathy; it should |
35 |
appear), and it should connect you to your Google chat account. |
