  1. Scroll down to Google and click Login to Google 
  1. Enter your Google account credentials 
  1. Review and accept the security permissions, if applicable 

You will now be automatically logged in to Google Calendar and Drive. If you would like to sign in to one of these features individually, you can do so following the instructions for each one below.
