Hello all together,

I have a Google Drive account with a e-mail address from web.de, not from gmail. How can I access to my Google Drive with the TC-Plugin?

Thanks and best regards
Marcus

Unfortunately I fear that this isn't possible. The Google Drive SDK for Android uses the Google Services to log into Google Drive. This only works with Google accounts on the device. On my Nexus 7, I have two users configured with a Google account each, so I see these two in the drive plugin.

There is a small chance that it will work when you try to add a new Google account via Android settings, and then enter your web.de e-mail and password. But it will probably only work with GMail.
