Log into Gmail, where you can access your account information, in order to change it.
- Date of birth
- Click on your email
In the right hand side of the browser you should see your email address. There is a little arrow that will bring down the drop down menu. In this menu you can select 'My Account' to open up your personal settings including your profile.
- Edit personal information
On the left hand side of the page, underneath your photo or the blank photo, there is a blue link that says 'edit personal info'. If you click on this link you will open up the profile page. The page will have your first and last name, any nickname, zip code, country or time zone. You can also add in an alternate email.
- Creating a profile
You can create a profile based on the information you want displayed. This information can include your birthday or not. Even when you create a profile to show publicly you cannot change the birth date. This is because the birthday is used to determine that you are old enough to have an account.
If you do make a mistake there is the possibility of sending a message to the Gmail team. With an email you can explain that you accidentally entered the wrong day or month. They may be able to suggest a way for you to change the date. In general though, you are not able to change it as you wish unlike other profile information.
