Help Google accounts not syncing properly since Lollipop

Android Version 5.0.1 Build # LRX22C. Since the Lollilop rollout on my Nexus 4 (I waited till the notification came to my phone) I have constant problems with Gmail, Drive etc. failing to sync between Nexus 4 phone and accessing same Google ID on my PC. The only certain way I can get new items to appear on Drive or in Gmail on the Nexus is to power down and restart. Very inconvenient. There used to be a screen I'd navigate to in Accounts where a sync issue icon would display but now there is no listing of anything to do with Google in Accounts (only non-Google apps) and nowhere to choose any type of manual sync or syncing at all except turning Autosync off and on again. I do have two IDs for Google because of my original Youtube account with a non-Gmail address that was created pre-Android (it has a lot of videos uploaded), but the problem ID is my main Google ID linked to gmail not the ID I switch to for Youtube.
 
So you're saying that neither of your Google accounts are listed under Settings > Accounts?

Yes, that's so. But my accounts exist and do sync with a restart. This is s screenshot.
