Troubleshooting

How to fix Google Workspace not working

Google Workspace is up on our end, so if it won't work for you, the problem is most likely on your side. Work through these in order:

Your browser tries to reach workspace.google.com over your own connection, right now. Nothing is sent to us or stored.

Check the Google Workspace status page
Open the official status page. If Google reports no incident for Gmail, Drive, Docs, or Meet, the problem is local to your account, browser, device, or network, so try the next step.
Try an incognito window
Open an incognito window and sign in to your Google Account. If the same Gmail message or Drive file works there, a browser extension or saved cookie is breaking the normal window. Disable extensions or clear site data for the affected app.
Sign out and back in
Sign out of your Google Account, then sign back in. If you use 2-Step Verification, approve the prompt on your phone. A wrong device clock can make secure sign-in fail, so set date and time to automatic.
Ask your administrator
Ask your administrator to open the Admin console and check your user status under Directory > Users. A suspended account or a disabled service will block Gmail, Drive, Docs, and Meet. If your account is active, they can open Apps > Google Workspace and check that the app you need is on for your organizational unit.

Error messages

Common Google Workspace error messages

What each message means and what to try. The wording can differ a little between app versions.

You don't have permission to access this document.

Means
Your account is not on the file's sharing list, so the app blocks you from opening it.

Fix
Click Request access to ask the owner for permission, or switch to an account that already has access.

While Google Workspace is down: what to use instead

Microsoft 365 Use Word, Excel, Outlook, and Teams in a browser or desktop app when you need to keep writing and replying while the usual suite is unavailable.
Zoho Workplace Move mail and team chat to Zoho Mail and Cliq if another hosted suite can carry the work.
LibreOffice Edit the files you already downloaded in Writer or Calc, then upload them again once the service responds.
Browser instead of the app If the mobile app throws an error or the desktop client stalls, sign in through a browser and open the same message or file there.

Your device

Fix Google Workspace on Windows, Mac, Android and iPhone

Google Workspace on Windows

Fix: To resolve Google Workspace issues on Windows, clear your browser's cache and cookies or try accessing the service in an Incognito window. You can also temporarily disable browser extensions that might interfere with Google Workspace.
Check: Check the official Google Workspace Status Dashboard to see if there is an active service outage. You can also try accessing Google Workspace from another web browser to see if the issue is browser-specific.

Command Prompt

ping workspace.google.comTest whether Google Workspace's servers reply

nslookup workspace.google.comCheck that Google Workspace's DNS resolves

tracert workspace.google.comTrace where the connection drops

ipconfig /flushdnsClear the DNS cache, then reload

Google Workspace on Mac

Fix: Fix Google Workspace on Mac by clearing your browser cache and ensuring your system date and time settings are correct to prevent SSL connection errors. Disabling ad-blockers or security extensions can also restore access to Google Workspace.
Check: Visit the Google Workspace Status Dashboard to verify if the service is experiencing a widespread outage. Alternatively, test if you can access Google Workspace using a different browser like Safari or Chrome.

Terminal

ping -c 4 workspace.google.comTest whether Google Workspace's servers reply

nslookup workspace.google.comCheck that Google Workspace's DNS resolves

traceroute workspace.google.comTrace where the connection drops

sudo dscacheutil -flushcache; sudo killall -HUP mDNSResponderFlush the macOS DNS cache, then reload

Google Workspace on Android

Fix: Fix Google Workspace on Android by clearing the cache of the specific app (like Gmail or Drive) in your system settings, or update the Google Workspace apps from the Google Play Store.
Check: If Google Workspace is down on Android, look for sync errors or connection timeout messages inside the apps. You can also check if the Google Workspace web interface loads on your mobile browser.

Google Workspace on iPhone and iPad

Fix: Fix Google Workspace on iOS by updating the apps through the App Store or reinstalling them if they fail to open. Ensure that mobile data permissions are enabled for Google Workspace apps in your iPhone settings.
Check: Check if Google Workspace is down on iOS by checking for persistent connection errors inside the apps or trying to access the service via Safari. You can also check the official Google Workspace status page.

About

What happens when Google Workspace goes down

Google Workspace is the paid bundle of Gmail, Drive, Meet, and Docs. Companies, schools, nonprofits, and government teams rely on it for shared inboxes, file storage, video meetings, and document editing, so an outage interrupts those jobs, often for some accounts and regions while others keep working.

Sign-in and Gmail often fail first: you get stuck on a loading screen, messages fail to send, attachments refuse to upload, or the page times out. Drive and Docs can follow, with files slow to open, edits that do not save, shared links returning an error page, or search results coming back empty. Meet calls often fail. Calendar invites stop syncing, while the trouble stays partial: one app degrades while others work, and an outage can hit a region or a data center rather than every account.

Questions

Google Workspace FAQ

Is Google Workspace down right now?

The status at the top of this page shows whether user problem reports for the service are above their usual level, counted in 15-minute windows over the last 24 hours. If the official status page is linked above, use it to see whether Google has posted an incident. To tell whether the trouble is only on your side, switch between Wi-Fi and mobile data, try the same account in a browser, open the Gmail app, and test one file in Docs; if a colleague on another network can open the same file or meeting, your connection or device is the likely cause.

Why can I open Gmail but Drive, Docs and Meet fail?

That pattern usually points to one broken app or file. Reload Drive in a private window and open the same document in the Docs app. If only a shared file fails, the owner may have changed permissions or moved it; if every Drive link fails, sign out and back in, then clear the browser cache.

Why does Google Drive show 'you need permission' on a file my team shares?

A permissions error often means your account is signed in to the wrong profile or the file moved to a shared drive you cannot open. Check the account menu in the top right of Drive. If the owner set the file to restricted, they must add you again; a service outage would usually break many files and apps, so a single broken document points to access.

Why does Google Meet say it cannot connect to the meeting?

Meet failures are often local. The app can fail when your browser blocks the camera and microphone, when a VPN blocks video and audio traffic, when a school network filters the connection, or when the meeting link belongs to a different Google account. Try the Meet app on your phone with mobile data and allow camera and mic permissions before joining. If others are inside the meeting, your device or network is the likely cause.

Why did my whole organization lose access to Gmail and Calendar at the same time?

That is rare. A domain-wide failure can happen when the admin console changes a setting, a user account is suspended, a security setting blocks sign-in, or Google has an incident. Ask your IT admin to check the Admin console for service status and suspended accounts, and try a personal Google account on the same device to rule out a local network block. If the official status page is linked above and shows an incident, wait for an update; your admin can use the help centre for account access steps.

How we track Google Workspace

The status on this page comes from user-submitted problem reports for Google Workspace, counted in 15-minute windows over the last 24 hours. Each window is compared with the normal level for Google Workspace, so a few complaints on a quiet day don't trigger anything, but a sudden jump well above normal does.

When reports climb well above normal, the status here changes to partial outage or major outage and the chart moves with it. This is separate from Google Workspace's official status page: user reports tend to show a problem early, while the official page confirms the cause. If the two disagree, check both.
