Is GMail Down?

    <p>Jim,</p><p><br></p><p>As of 9:58 AM EST, it appears to be working OK for me. Perhaps try a different browser and perhaps try a different Google service (maps, translate, search etc.) to see if your experience is different with that.</p>

    <p><strong>Steps to fix if Gmail is not working -</strong></p><p><br></p><p>-If Gmail isn’t working, often the only thing you need to do is to simply close your instance of Gmail and reopen it. </p><p>-If you are in a web browser, close the browser, reopen it, and navigate back to the Gmail website. </p><p>-If you’re on a mobile device, close the app, and restart it.</p><p><br></p><p><strong><em>Regards,</em></strong></p><p><strong><em>Rachel Gomez</em></strong></p>
