Public bug reported:

The auto-login service for GMail accounts gives "Applications can no
longer access online accounts" error everytime it attempts to connect.
It also cannot sustain connections for other online services (facebook,
yahoo, etc.) and requires me to grant access to the services again and
again. I can confirm my passwords are correct.

Also, granting access to yahoo mail and facebook works flawlessly, but
the GMail 'Grant Access' interface is buggy, and just doesn't work.  On
entering password and clicking 'Done' it brings back the same screen, as
though nothing happened. Over and over again. If you click cancel a few
times, it brings you back to the screen with the list of online
accounts, while it attempts to connect to the services, in vain. Also,
overall the friends service is buggy. It doesn't show me notifications
from facebook, nor has it synced events from my google calenders. I
cannot tell you when this problem started exactly, neither can i guess
what might have caused the problem. If you need some log files, please
tell me, i'll upload them asap. I don't have accounts in many of the
services listed there, so i might not be able to help you with other
services. I really hope there's a solution to this, because its always
lovely to see a well polished desktop environment :)
