BlackBerry® PlayBook™

[cma]

It's been a few days since i'm seeing this error :"looks like you've lost connection to the server. please check that you have a working network connection and try again."  tried logging out and & back in several times. Network is working fine as everything else works beautifully from my PlayBook. And, I can acess Gmail from my PC and BlackBerry, just not from PB. it's not an app, trying to connect from the browser. Also logged in for a different Gmail account - that shows up as offline. Again only on the PB.

Please help!

Im having the same problem. the last email shown in my gmail inbox when i use the PB gmail app is dec 21. it roughly corellates to when i also bookmarked gmail in the browser. it seems very annoying. i think Ill open a case with BB on this.

I can access GMail but it always seems to be working through local storage on the Playbook. To get new mail I always have to clear out history and storage. Thing is, after doing this it goes back to seemingly working offline as any deleted e-mails during that session are only deleted on the Playbook. When I go on the computer those e-mails I trashed are still sitting in the inbox. Does this happen with any other web e-mails like Hotmail or Yahoo?

SUCCESS. one of the other forums had a suggestion.
- log out of gmail in your PB
- go to browser settings / privacy and Clear All
- log on to gmail and see if it works

this worked for me for at least a day.

Thanks servantude! clearing the cache worked (was looking for this option on the main Settings page. found the Privacy Settings on the browser page).
