Since there is no way to use two google talk accounts, how do I sign out of one account and sign in with another? Even with auto sign in turned off, when I sign out and then launch it again, I get logged in with the login I don't want.

Not sure if it's possible. I think the app uses the Google account you registered to your phone. Maybe you can add another account in Settings->Accounts&Sync, and make it your default Google account somehow. Other than that, you could always use Third party apps like Meebo to sign into your other accounts.

Menu > Settings > Accounts and sync > Google > Remove account. Then sign in with other account.

That isn't a solution.
I'm sorry to say so, but i'm 99% sure that there is no way to switch accounts. It automatically uses the one you register the phone with. The same one you use on market.
As of right now, it is not possible to change accounts on google talk. I have researched this myself many times. It is even a flagged issue on google. It has been flagged and even acknowledged by google employees for 2 years! Only option you have that has almost all features of talk is fring.
Hi,
Is there any way to transfer all purchased/free apps from one google account to another?
Thanks
You'd have to contact Google directly to find out, but I'm pretty sure they won't do it.

Puchased Apps are bind to a single Account. You can't transefer them. The only way to get them to your phone would be switching Accounts.
You can read more at the english Android Market help pages. Search for "Retrieving previously purchased applications". I can't post links
How many of you have more then one Google account on you're phone?
Does it add more Battery drain or cause any issues?
The reason I ask is I have a game linked to one account but it's not my main account. In order to play the game I must use my other Google account.
I guess I'm just asking how many of you have more then one account for any reason at all.

I have 2. One private one school. It drains a bit more than one since I got both on sync. If I only have one on sync I don't notice any difference to one account.

I have several one for business and one for my personal gmail.
Adding multiple gmails wouldn't drain your battery provided you opt for a sync option too often. Since you use an email ID for game purpose and most probably you need regular updates on that better u turn on auto sync for that and just the normal one for other account.

I have three accounts and don't notice any extra battery drain.
Eight accounts, but I have none set to auto sync. (Living on a border makes setting anything that involves Data to auto sync a terrible idea.) So no battery drain.
A little off topic here, but is there any good reason to have more than 1 Gmail account set up?
I have 3. I don't see any difference in battery life.

Simple. Most of us have multiple accounts.
- A friends account. Usually the one you've had for years. It's also generally an embarrasing and/or unprofessional name.
- A professional account. Because applying for a job under 'Daworldsmahb*[email protected]' is not going to get you hired. Ever.
- A work account. Most occupations give you a company email, and more and more often it's a Gmail account.
- A uni account. Because we really don't want our professors/teachers in our Hangout/ Google+
- A spam account. For all the websites/papers/adverts/coupons you register on that you know are going to spam you with pointless rubbish. (though you usually don't set this up on your phone to sync.)
- There's more reasons.
I'm using 2 Accounts at the moment with no effect on performance or battery drain at all. Need them both because one is for private use and the other for more public

Correct, I actually own a business account, a spam account, a personal account, and a work account.
However, I set these all up on my phone (not to sync) but anyone can easily use my phone and look at the different accounts I have, right? I don't want to set up a lock on the phone because it makes me inefficient and it's pretty slow. Any workaround?
Do people also use multiple Gmail accounts just for the Play Store because I see absolutely no reason for that.

If you dont want to set up a lock on your phone, look into privacy apps. They generally have an option to lock specific apps with a password. (antivirus apps do, too, but eat more battery..)
Not on my phone, but my gmail account is linked to mum's tablet as a secondary Google Play account. Why? Because she uses many the same apps as me, and we're not rich enough to buy it all twice. (Next launcher is 13 euro's, f*ck no, that's 2 days worth of food! .) And if you remove the account, the license check comes back as invalid.

It's not necessarily the apps themselves showing I have multiple accounts, but the phone. For example if I go to my "Phone >> Contacts >> My profile" it shows I have multiple email accounts. It also shows in the Settings >> Accounts that I have a lot of emails.
Thanks for all the replys.

I have two Google Play accounts. For a few reasons I have purchased Apps on both accounts. From time to time I am unable to download updates for certain Apps. I get a google play error 403. The only way aroumd this that I have found is to remove the account that did not purchase the app download the update and then re-add the second account.
Not all apps do this. Most often the apps that cause the issue are Tinycam Pro and Tapatalk pro.
Does anyone know of a better way to deal with this?

Same issue here, with tapatalk. Deleting one account is a working workaround, but not very handy.
Hi all
I have been using Samsung and Sony Android phones for years and this is my first Nexus phone. I have just a studip questions about stock email app and exchange sync....
I have added my corporate exchange account to stock email app and sync it self is working as it should. BUT, with Samsung and Sony I was able to set different sync frequencies for working days and weekends (Push for working days from 8:00am to 6:00pm and manual fetching for other times). Is this possible with Nexus 5 stock email app? I cannot find setting for it.
Second question is, Sony and Samsung were able to search contacts directly from company Active Directory using same activesync account. Is this possible with Nexus 5?
Other wise I really like this phone!
Thanks in advance!
1) no not in stock app. There are plenty on play that will.
2) yes. Go into contacts and press search
