      I'm wondering if it has to do with following the above steps and rebooting. Did you try this?

      Yes,Infact I sent a bug report to Opera,and when trying to use my gmail,it said it was unknown,so,I used yahoo email. BTW, everything worked fine yesterday.It was my first day to use Opera,today is day two for me.

          Anew day and the problem is Back.I did not power off overnight,simply closed the lid to put the laptop to "sleep". I CAN log into Gmail today though,just Youtube with the "cookie" mesg.Turbo on/off had no affect.Also disabled Akamai netsession,with no affect.Full scan with Malwarebytes and Avast shows nothing.

            I noticed clearing cookies action is set to default of last 4 hours. I changed drop down selection to 4 weeks and cleared them. Then I was able to log-in to gmail and YouTube again.

              [I noticed clearing cookies action is set to default of last 4 hours. I changed drop down selection to 4 weeks and cleared them. Then I was able to log-in to gmail and YouTube again.]

              So essentially this is what I tried after following all of the recommended Google steps. This is the solution that worked for me. Change it to "last 4 weeks".

              Much obliged twn7.

                HI
                GOT THE SOLUTION.

                Just clicked on the "manage exceptions" button and added "WHAT EVER IS WRITTEN" BEFORE COOKIES MISMATCHED IN IT.

                GOOD LUCK

                  HELLO TO ALL !

                  I THINK I HAVE JUST FOUND THE SOLUTION !

                  GO TO SETTINGS----> PRIVACY & SECURITY -----> COOKIES Open ALL COOKIES AND SITES DATA and Remove all

                  THEN GO TO SETTINGS ----> DEFAULT BROWSER click on Import bookmarks and settings and check only to reimport the cookies from the browser that you used before Opera .

                  That should work !

                    I just had the same problem after a week of using Opera easily. Suddenly I couldn't access my gmail account, in the midst of using it. None of Google's "helps" in its error message about detecting a problem with the cookie settings helped. I did as a writer above suggested, cleared browsing history and cookies for 4 weeks, and that did the trick.

                    I think.

                    Unless it's an intermittent prank played by Google on those of us who have forsaken Chrome.

                      Do you have cookies enabled, including third part ones?

                        I did what konzer71 suggested above;

                        GO TO SETTINGS----> PRIVACY & SECURITY -----> COOKIES Open ALL COOKIES AND SITES DATA and Remove all

                        Worked first time.

                        Cheers konzer71!

                          Here is the solution.

                          Step 1 :

                          • Go to settings
                          • Search cookies
                          • delete cookies (Select from the beginning of time)

                          Step 2 :

                          • Restart Opera
                          • Open mail.google.com
                          • Sign in

                          It worked for me, hope this works for you.

                              I followed revrickyb's suggestion, but after getting to 'all cookies & site data', I did a search for 'google' & just deleted those cookies since google seemed to be the only area was I was having a problem. Seems to be working.

                                  On Opera 35, I can't sign in, even though I have already deleted all cookies.
                                  Firefox is better.

                                    Works fine here. Are you sure its not a PEBKAC error? A quick search on Google can generally lead you to a solution.

                                      What are your cookies settings? 3rd party cookies are enabled?

                                        I've never had this problem. But as I see, it may happen in Chrome and other web browser, not only Opera.
                                        I often clear my history and cookies by CCleaner instead of Opera, maybe you should try it next time. Try choosing all the recommended selection in Settings, if it doesn't work, maybe re-install Opera will help :p

                                          I gave up trying to fix Google's problem.
                                          My cookies work everywhere except Google so, it isn't a cookie problem here.
                                          The fix

                                          • gMail became Hotmail
                                          • Dropped Google+ all together (pretty worthless anyway)
                                          • YouTube became Vimeo
                                          • Google Search became StartPage.com
                                            Life is good without Google frustration.
