    Hi,
    I am running 3 separate gmail accounts.
    Each of these are functional on my mobile phone Samsung Note2.
    The main email runs on my Win 7 Windows Live Mail laptop as well.
    The problem is that my main email account has mysteriously disappeared online.
    The other 2 are available online.
    Is there any method of recovering my main gmail to access online ?

    Thanking you
    roy66

    So you go to the login page and type your user name and password... What happens then?

    I get the option to choose either of the other two accounts that are still accessible online, but my main account has gone missing.

    If you're looking at the sign on screen and it shows one email address - what happens if you replace that with the missing account information?

    I am uncertain that I can REPLACE that with the "missing information" which would be my main email address.
    I have attempted to create a new öriginal "email address but it won't accept it as it is recognized as already taken ------by me of course.
    I can alternate between the two email addresses I still have available and that's about it as best I understand.
    This main email address is still functional both from my laptop and mobile phone but I am now unable to find any record of it online.

    It sounds like the missing accoutn is fine and dandy. It's just missing from the browser sign page. You MUST tell your browser which account you'd like to sign into. You can only do that by typing in the email address and password.
