I had created a YouTube account using my hotmail email address, a while back, and now when I try to access YouTube, my computer only shows me how the log-in via my gmail account. What's the solution? How do I get to my YouTube account that doesn't use my gmail address? Thanks.
Use your full hotmail email address as user ID: (eg. ) Your password will be the same as the one when you registered for the YouTube account. I hope that will solve your issue.
This is because you can bound non-gmail address to your gmail account, so you can log in using the hotmail one
There should be a button there that says " I cant access my account", then it will run you through the youtube/google melee!
I don't think you ever did this: login to youtube using hotmail account. It's like saying you login to gmail with a hotmail address. You might have dream to do so!
your gmail account should work for ALL Google services, from gmail, to maps, youtube, drive, etc. you would use the account for your gmail. I don't think one can use hotmail to log in.
But why you use hotmail account with youtube? And but Google account is best and you can easily google account with youtube. I suggest you can use google account. Google account is best for that work and show the youtube video.
Keep in mind that Google owns YouTube, so of course they want you to use a gmail account. Anyway gmail is free, so is the Google account, so is YouTube. So just set up a Google/gmail account just for YouTube. You never need to use it except to log in.
Before Google purchased Youtube you could use whatever email you wanted, Hotmail was most commonplace and popular at the time. Then Google purchased youtube and after a while started to force people to open up Gmail Accounts and associate them with their youtube accounts. Some people resisted and saw this as a nuisance. There were no android phones or tablets so having a gmail seemed unnecessary. If you failed to open a Gmail account and associate it with your youtube account by a specific date you were effectively locked out of your youtube account. If you have this problem you will have to follow these instructions to regain access. https://support.google.com/youtube/answer/1637615?vid=1-635795717418778436-1494204447
Easy it is... create a google account with your hotmail ID... the only difference will be that you wont get gmail... rest all features can be accessed like google+, adwords, adsense etc etc etc
try to use your complete email address. if not succeeded try their recovery options. Better option is to have a google account. Even though you do not use gmail, you can easily access their other services at ease.
i think you should create a new google account , it is just as an account , it is not hard to you i think.
