Hello,
Newbie here asking for help setting up 2 factor auth on mtgox using a smartphone. A kind soul is kindly asked to help. The present state:
1. I have an account at Mtgox and want to add Google Authentication service in Mtgox in Security Systems.
2. I bought an Android phone 3 days ago.
3. I downloaded Google Authenticator into my phone and get the following sentences / commands on the phone after starting this app:
First screenWith 2-step verification , whenever you sign in to your Google Account you will need:
1. Your password (non-clickable)
2. A code that this app will generate for you (non-clickable)
Begin setup (clickable command which I click and arrive at):
Second screen that shows:
Add an account (non-clickable):___________________
Manually add an account (non-clickable)Scan a barcode (clickable;
Q1: Is barcode reading app built-in Google Authenticator so that I do not need to download any other additional application?)
Enter provided key (clickable;
Q2: Should I type Mtgosx's ''Auth Name'' or ''Standard Private Key'' or ''Secure Private Key''?)
Q3: Are ''scan barcode'' and ''add an account'' interchangable, meaning that performing any of the two will result in a success or do I need to both scan the barcode and enter the key?

Available Google accounts (non-clickable)myname@gmail.com (clickable;
Q4: is it advisable to create a new Google Account or is it okay if I use the existing one?)
Q5: Do I need to reveal my Google Account or this option is only for Gmail?
Thank you.
