My “firstlastname@gmail.com” is logging me into my “firstlastname@yahoo.com”. I type my gmail and password in, and gmail logs me into the yahoo version and says “something went wrong. Try again later.” when i click it.
What is causing this and how do i undo it? I cant see on gmail or yahoo where or if the two account are connected. I need access to the gmail version.

Please go to the e-mail page in your Google account settings: https://security.google.com/settings/email
What accounts are listed on that page (even without the @gmail.com part)?
How are they designated: primary, alternate, etc?
When i log into the email i want, it just shows the @yahoo one on everything. As if i never typed in the “firstlastname@gmail.com”.
OK, but that's not what I asked.
It only says the yahoo one.
Like when i click that link, each section shows the yahoo one. I dont know why.
I would expect to see firstlastname@ as an alternate name on the account. Honestly, if firstlastname@ is not listed, you can't be using it to sign into that Google account. If it only lists the Yahoo one, then that's all that would work for signing in.
Of course, I can't SEE what you are seeing.
Does firstlastname show up withOUT a domain as an alternate name for the account?
