Apple tv youtube account

O camt ligin youtube form mu Apple tv even though ı cüretten youtube account what is the problem

Hi,
I had the same problem with an "upgraded" youtube account.  i.e. ages ago I must have pressed the upgrade button and integrated it into Google.  I login via a gmail username.  This account behaves the same way as a new google/youtube account.
My hardware is Apple TV 3 purchased around April 2012 in Australia
spent hours trying all sorts of remedies nothing worked e.g. :-
- enabled two factor authentication in youtube
- create mobile application password
In the end the answer was simple,  turned off all the above and reverted the account to it's basic settings.
Create a channel in the account and it started working

  • Apple TV YouTube account log-in

    I just got an Apple TV and am having difficulties logging in to my YouTube account. It fails every tedious time. Wrong name or password. The same "wrong" name or password I successfully used to log-in on all my Boxee Boxes, and my WD TVs. Is there some trick that I am missing here?

    Hello zeiad,
    I would restart the Apple TV in this way, and then log into you tube via the settings in the menu.
    Restarting your Apple TV (2nd or 3rd generation) using the onscreen menu
    If you have Apple TV software 5.0 or later installed, you can restart your Apple TV using the onscreen menu. To restart your Apple TV choose Settings > General > Restart.

  • This youtube account cannot be used with apple tv

    I cannot view youtube on my apple tv.  It worked a couple of weeks ago but now does not.  I tried to log into youtube on apple tv and get the message that "this youtube account cannot be used with apple TV.  Anyone know the problem?

    Establish a Google+ channel. Then be sure your ATV has the latest update. This worked for me last week.

  • Has anyone else had trouble connecting their YouTube account to the Apple TV?

    My YouTube account is connected to my Gmail account.  I never set up a second YouTube account with a username, etc.  When I try to log in to the AppleTV YouTube app, it says "this type of account cannot be used."  I'm not sure what the issue is.  Can anyone help?

    You have to go into your Gmail account settings.
    Then Security.
    Then turn ON 2-Step Verification
    Follow the instructions to link a cell phone to your google account. They will text you a secondary code and once you've entered that your 2-step verification will be set up.
    Then you should have the option on the bottom of the page to add a device. Call it apple tv and then it will generate a secondary code specifically for your Apple TV.
    On the Apple TV itself, ultimately I think you have to enter just the first part of your e-mail address (before the @gmail.com) as your Youtube login username.
    Then you should enter your gmail account password.
    Apple TV will tell you it is incorrect.
    Then, retry and enter the long secondary password that google generated for the apple tv.
    That should do it.

  • Will deleting my you tube app affect my youtube accounts becuase since uploading the latest Apple update, everytime I go to click on something on my youtube page, it switches to the app and then comes back and opens up another tab and never did that

    I am having a problem with my youtube account, as since updating to iOS 8.3, the other day, every time I go to my youtube account and click on anything there by opening up a tab, it always goes to the youtube app and then goes back and opens a new tab.  Everytime I have updated, it seems to get worse not better.  One other thing that happened that has not been fixed yet when I updated a while ago, was that when you have many tabs open and go back and forth between them, it aleays reloads and does not stay the way you left it.  Wish Apple would get it right and especially with youtube issues.  So my question regarding my youtube account would be if I can delete the youtube app, without affecting my account.

    If you delete the YouTube app you will not be affecting your YouTube account.  You can always reinstall it & see if that fixes the problem.
    As far as Safari pages reloading between tabs, I have also noticed the issue after iOS 8 on my iPad 2.  Updating to the latest iOS on older devices can see a degradation in performance within certain apps due to the limitations of those devices. 
    We made the choice to update & with the many benefits of the latest & greatest iOS there are bound to be some problems too, 

  • I can't use my youtube account with my apple tv

    I can get YouTube on my Apple TV, but it won't let me use my YouTube account (created through my Mac), on the Apple TV. I'm stumped.

    The two are incompatible, HDMI is a digital signal and VGA is an analog signal. You need a monitor with a HDMI port or a DVI-I port, these are both digital signals. DVI-I gives the best output.

  • I purchased a UFC Pay Per View through my Youtube account, how do I find it on the Apple TV Youtube channel?

    I just ordered UFC 165 through my Youtube account and was planning to watch it on my TV through Apple TV's Youtube channel. I can't find the main card link on the UFC channel on the Apple TV. Does it appear once the event starts?

    Yes sorry, I can see that from your question title.  Are you in the US? Ifv so movie redownloads should be available, but I believev some studios aren't onboard.
    In iTunes, go to the Store home page - on the right in Quick Links is there a Purchased/Purchases section? If so check if you can download the movies from there.
    If you can't see them go to expresslane.apple.com and raise a support ticket for iTunes store, asking them to enable download via iTunes.

  • Synchronizing apple tv youtube history with online youtube account

    I would like my apple tv youtube history to be available on my youtube account online, and vice-versa.
    Is there anything that I should do, any setting that I need to change, for that to happen?
    thanks!
    E.

    what do you mean? should it play more then one video at the time?

  • I can not sign in to Youtube account using Appletv. It just stopped accepting my password.

    My appletv worked great....now it won't let me sign in to my Youtube account. It keeps saying that "The account name or password was incorrect,please try again".  But I know for certain that it is correct! It is the same password I use for my laptop and iphone to log in to Youtube. What must I do to correct this??

    I had the same problem.
    See the fix posted at https://discussions.apple.com/thread/5144088 by carbon_dragon.
    To get the e-mail mentionned by carbon_dragon in the post, go to your YouTube account page. From there click on YouTube settings by clicking on the drop down box with the gear icon on the box to the left of your YouTube account name along the top of the screen. This should bring you to the Overview screen of your account settings in YouTube. Once there, click on "Advanced" under your YouTube name. This will take you to a page that has a section entitled "Account information." There you will see an e-mail address. A long e-mail address. This is the address you will use. What worked for me was to remove the YouTube account that was on my Apple TV. Then I entered the e-mail address--the long e-mail address -- into the log-in on the Apple TV. After that, I entered the YouTube password I've been using for the account that had stopped working in my Apple TV. And voila! it worked.
    Hope this helps you and anyone else that has this issue.

  • I upgraded my ipad to iOS 5.1.  However, my Youtube favorites are missing.  These are favorites saved on the iPad, not on the youtube account.

    I upgraded my iPad to iOS 5.1.  Afterwards, my Youtube favorites are missing.  These are favorites saved on the iPad and not linked to a Youtube account.
    I have tried restarting the iPad several times to no avail.  The favorites seems to be still on the iPad, since when I try to add a video that used to be on the list, that option is greyed out indicating that the computer knows that this is a favorite video.

    The problems reported here occurred right after updating to iOS according to the users as TD mentioned. 
    It's a compatibility problem between iPhoto and iOS6 that the only workaround would be to possibly batch change the date of the photos in iPhoto . Therefore we'll have to wait for it to be fixed with either an iPhoto update or an iOS update, which ever Apple feels is the proper item to to be changed.
    If they update iPhoto first (which is probably what they'll do) it'll be called an iPhoto problem.

  • I can't access my YouTube account

    I recently deleted my entire Google account and associated data (including YouTube account info) and then signed up for a fresh account. I did this because my daughter and I were sharing an account and all of her YouTube subscriptions were mixing in with mine. After getting this all done I tried to sign in to YouTube on my AppleTV and keep getting rejected. I used the gmail address that I set up because this is how you have to do it now. I read online about the 2 step verification and the ASP (application specific password) and that didn't work either. Does anyone know how to fix this? I know I can just use Airplay but I'd rather not have to fire up the YouTube app on one of my iOS devices when I used to be able to access it perfectly from with the AppleTV interface.

    Ok, so after searching around some more on the web I found this article and it solved my problem. It's from the forums but I'm just going to copy and paste it here for reference. Thanks to the author! It solved my issue!

    Wow - After a couple of days trying to find help setting up my New Apple TV and Login in to You Tube there was just not enough information in any one place. I searched Google, You Tube, Apple, and found bits and pieces  and finally figured it out...At Least I was able to get mine to work. So here are some steps for you to take. I am not going to type all the information from the various steps you need to take. Just know you need to go to these places and set them up correctly before the Apple TV You Tube will accept your password.
    1) Turn on 2 step verification in your G-mail Account settings...Look at the videos and help. Be sure to record or print your back up codes. Download the Google Authenticator app for your IPhone, IPad, IPod and set it up. So in a nutshell - Get your E-mail and IPhone, IPod, IPad working first with the  2 step verification code. This all working correctly will help you later login in to the Apple TV You Tube. There are instructions how to use the App, Exchange, Etc...Much to read in Google to get this far, but if you do not complete this step - It won't work........(well mine would not work) If your not using an IPad, IPod, IPhone, you can still get your desktop, laptop, etc setup and working.
    2) The message from Apple TV You Tube that the account can not be used is simple, Apple TV wants you to log in so you can save to your favorites in You Tube, or rate a You Tube...You Must have a You Tube Account and Setup with the Google account name you are trying to use on the Apple TV You Tube. You MUST setup your You Tube Account Channels....This is where the Apple TV You Tube is trying to save your favorite etc. If this is not set up...the message that this account can not be used will appear.
    3) If you got this far....Only one step left...And you probably already read about it...But when you try to log in to You Tube on the Apple TV....FIRST use your regular normal password that you use for You Tube...The message will appear that the password is incorrect....NOW..Don't try another account...Use the same acount and this time put in the 2 step verification password...You Create this verification code in your Google Account Security setting that you have used to setup your You Tube...
    I hope this helps someone..I spent 3 days reading all the bits and pieces and there was just not enough information all in one place..GL

  • YouTube Account and My Videos

    Seriously? Apple TV allows you to log into your YouTube account and view your favorites and your subscriptions, but NOT YOUR OWN VIDEOS????? Are you kidding me? I guess if you subscribe to yourself... Seems stupid to me.

    Welcome to the Apple Discussion Forums
    I don't see any reason you can't watch your own videos unless of course you tube hasn't yet processed them for use with the Apple tv. The Apple tv doesn't use the standard you tube site for video and relies on you tube processing your video in another format.

  • My YouTube account.................

    So this has nothing to do with the Apple company, but I recently have found that I can not log into my YouTube account, mine's not been hocked-up to a Gmail account in AGES (I disconnected it and made it my own channel 2 or so years ago) and I haven't had problems recently (my last issue (which was this EXACT issue) was a year ago) and I REALLY want to get back into my YouTube WITHOUT having to make a new one.......... can SOMEONE help me?!? Cuz CLEARLY YouTube can't because it just yelled at me saying that NONE of my Emails were in their system............ I've been battling with YouTube for 3 HOURS now, and I've given up, so I hope that one of you can help..........
    oh and I was on the YouTube app for the iPhone (I have the 4G) during this......

    You're welcome
    Yes, a reset is always the first thing to try if you experience some glitches after installing new software or apps or if some apps are getting stuck.
    Another way would be double clicking the home button, to bring up the taskbar, tap on one of the listed apps until they start to shake, then hit the little cross in the corner of the icon, to close the app completely. Tap the home button to stop the motion and to close the taskbar again.
    This would be a thing to try before you reset the device, it is faster and you can only address the one app causing you problems.
