Hello all:
Some one was using my mac, and he signed in using his gmail account, and he signed out from a long time ago.
so, i need to remove his gmail account from safari default Gmail, because each time i need to use a website with gmail, it suggest my friend's gmail as a default gmail account,
i hit next then change the default account to be mine, but is there a way to remove this account?
His password is not in my Keychain or someting, so can not sign in or even remove it as a solution for this.
Any help will be highly appreciated

Go to system preferences>internet accounts if you're in MacOS. Interact with the table and select the gmail account to be deleted. uninteract with the table, tab to the right, and click on the button to delete/remove it. Voila! smile

If that doesn't work, you may need to remove Google cookies from Safari. To do this, choose Safari > Settings, (or press Command-Comma) click the Privacy button in the toolbar, and click Manage website data.

A list of all websites that are storing data in Safari will appear. The easiest way to identify cookies from Google is to type "Google" into the search field, and because the cookie labels don't indicate which accounts they correspond to, you should select all of them that appear in the table, and click Remove all. Note that you'll need to sign back into your Google account once cookies have been deleted.
