Some applications, such as People, Gmail, and Calendar, can sync data from multiple accounts. Others sync data only from the first Google Account you sign in to on your tablet, or from an account associated specifically with that application.

For some applications, such as People or Calendar, all changes that you make on your tablet are made to the synchronised copy on the Internet. Other applications only copy information from account on the Internet; the information on your tablet cannot be changed directly, you must change the information stored in the Internet account.

Tap APPS > Settings > [Account] to manage the synchronization of individual accounts.

Some applications, such as Gmail and Calendar, have additional synchronization settings. Open the application and tap the Menu button (three dots) and then tap Settings.

Changing language and text options
