I can see that you have targeted to a TableRow and used TextField which would be only a textfiled. You should be targeting parent and try to get all the text fields with your criteria.

I have tried with below code and worked for me. If you still unable to figure out the issue, you post the error/html source code.

 IE ie = new IE("https://accounts.google.com/SignUp?service=mail&continue=https%3A%2F%2Fmail.google.com%2Fmail%2F&ltmpl=default");
 ie.WaitForComplete();

 foreach (var txtEle in ie.Form(Find.ById("createaccount")).TextFields)
 {
      if (!string.IsNullOrEmpty(txtEle.Id))
      {
          if (txtEle.Id.Contains("Name"))
          {
             txtEle.TypeText("write this string");
          }
      }
  }

 ie.WaitForComplete();
