How can I do video call if I have an account on yahoo?

[virdi1992]

@mikybadboy87 LOL yahoo? i forgot that still exists...

[maxsonic1]

@linus, why are you using the SMS verification when google have the Authenticator app in the app store?

ans as djGLCKR says you are supposed to use the application specific password feature of 2 step verification, that way if you were to loose access to the device/or forget to sign out/wipe the device you only have to Revoke that specific password rather than change your whole gmail password.

[FullName10]

Something like SteamGuard

[Zwank36]

woah careful linus, don't have an iOS device so close to an andriod device. they might have a legal fight.

[Azzagard]

Just don't lose your phone if you're using 2 step verification or you won't be able to login.

[maxsonic1]

@Azzagard you get given 10 one time use codes that you write down when you turn 2step verification on, you can also set up a backup phone, so you would have to be pretty unlucky to ever loose access to your account

[ninjaturtle205]

i hate my internet it loads every 5 seconds.

[MrChrigi26]

It's kind of ironic to use an iOS device as part of the 2-step verification for an ANDROID device :)

[stickchart]

I was thinking about getting an Android tablet, but it wasn't rage proof so I kept looking............

[Martinx88813]

Thanks for the tip!!!!!!!!!!

[patryric]

Gmail is not working anymore on my IE unless I go to basic HTML mode.

Anyone have this problem?

It works fine with Chrome.

Nothing was changed that I know of.

[onesound69]

@patryric stop using IE, problem solved.

[PaperWeight231]

@patryric Stop using IE, back to the 21st century please! :D

[Neuropraxic]

@PaperWeight231 internet explorer is the shit

[TalesOfWar]

@patryric Which version of IE? If it's 6, they no longer support it. You'll need at least 8 but preferably 9. Personally I'd just use a different browser. IE is crap, all of them.

[heppu4]

ahh.. so much videos, I LOVE IT!

[ottermanuk]

you would have to be a pretty retarded courier

[EmoticonMayhem]

[ZHX1138]

I like laptops more than tablets.

[ZHX1138]

I've tried this and it works wonders. Now my accounts are safer.

[TheJessassin]

this drove me crazy when I first used my ipod touch. I had to set up a "special" password for it

[jaydo1001]

Dear Linus.

I am a highschool student looking for a tablet.

For school and entertainment . have any good suggestions.

plz respond back thanks

[concon1455]

@jaydo1001 fuck you



[sashamaz]

@jaydo1001 get an ipad it's what every other tablet is trying to be, if you hate apple then get the samsung galaxy tab 10.1 its basically a clone of the ipad.

[MeDmAnQcA]

@jaydo1001 asus tf110 with the keyboard.

[M3aaaqHD]

@jaydo1001 sell your body and buy an ipad

[ig33ku]

Vacuum the damn floor!!!

[locolalo1364]

I think Linus is a pretty cool guy. eh reviews tech gear and doesn’t afraid of anything…

[djGLCKR]

Actually, if you're linking a new device to your Google account, you must use the "Authorizing Applications and websites" option on your account security tab.

In here, you'll have to give a name to the password you want to generate (i.e.: MotoXOOM account), and Google will give you a 16-digit password, with a space between each 4 letter group. You must introduce that password (including the spaces) instead of your regular PW. That's how you link devices via 2-step verification.

[djGLCKR]

And forgot to add. Just thumbs up the tutorial so people would understand how to link accounts using 2-step verification.

[efeman92]

@djGLCKR Small note, but the spaces don't actually matter.

[vileguile4]

@djGLCKR Thanks for that :) 2step activated

[EternalFantasy13]

YESS ASUS EEE PAD TRANSFORMER

[Bouwplan]

Linus.. get the authenticator :P

also... go to your accounts settings and go for the option that grants apps access. you can enter a name there and it wil generate a code that you can use as password.

[SrBigSmoke]

give a way! :P

[cotyslick]

steam has you check your email for a code when you sign into your account on another computer

[TehMG]

Two-step verification sucks, it requires a cell phone and I don't have one.

I wish they could do two-step verification with a keyfob type thing (kind of like the RSA keyfobs many companies use for two-step verification on their VPNs).

[RamoneTalarico]

thanks for sharing this information! very much needed!

[kmamlouk]

it said username or password don't match because you are using an application , not signing in from the browser, once you activate the 2 step authentication in google you have to setup Authorizing applications & sites , which gives you a different password to use, for example for your mail client or google toolbar., they added this feature because most application were not designed to use to step authorization ,and to preserve security , application pass are different than ur google account pass

[xXhypeboyXx]

Linus is THE MOST AWSOME dude that ever existed

[DjSuperSou1]
