YouTube app account?

I had signed up on YouTube app on iPhone. It was working perfectly. For some reason I signed out and forgot all my account details. Now i am unable to retrieve that information from anywhere. My YouTube works fine in safari with google account, but the app does not accept google account. I cannot access the app through my iTunes and apple ID. And there is seemingly no option of creating a new account on this app! Can anyone help me pleae?

Found this solution from a simple search of your question which has already been answered:
If you have linked Youtube to your Google account, you should use a different password. Do the following:
1) Go to the page of your authorized apps here:https://www.google.com/accounts/IssuedAuthSubTokens (you can also access it from the My Account link in the top right corner of YouTube page online).
2) Scroll down to the section "Application-specific passwords".
3) Create new password for Youtube on your iPad: enter some name in the field so that you will recognize it in the future, and click "Generate Password".
4) Note the new password in big letters appears on the screen, 4 groups with 4 letters each.
4) Now on your iPad open the Youtube app.
5) Enter your google account handle (i.e. "[email protected]") and use the new password (not your Google or Youtube password), this only appears to work in 'my videos' section.
Youtube app will log in to your account — you can make sure of it as you will be able to see your subscriptions and favourites.
Hope that helps.
Please try a search first so people don't have to answer the same question tons of times.
Hope this helps.
Cheers.

    hello, please also make sure that in particular youtube.com & accounts.google.com are allowed to set cookies (at least for the session)...

  • Can't sign in to YouTube account  via YouTube app on iPhone4

    I saw a few posts from a year ago - not sure if there are any updates or changes.
    I would really like to be able to access my personal YouTube account using the YouTube app on my iPhone4, but everytime I try to sign in, I repeatedly get the same message: "Authentication Failed The username or password you entered is incorrect."
    I understand that I linked my YouTube account to my Google account (I was forced to), I've even tried new password, old password, YouTube account name, google account name...nothing works - I get the same thing each time...
    I also can't seem to log in to my account via Safari on my iPhone - I followed the instructions on the YouTube help page and went through Safari to try that, but when I try to log in, it tells me, "This account is already linked to a different Google username."...But I've double checked on line, can't figure out what the issue is...help??? Anyone???

    Have you contacted Google/YouTube customer or technical support?
    The problem lies there.

  • I cannot log into my YouTube account on my old iPod Touch with the old YouTube app

    A few days ago i tried to log into the old YouTube app and it said that my information was incorrect. Ive tried all my usernames and passwords and nothing works. I have the old iPod Touch and havent upgraded to the newest operating system. I have tried downloading the new YouTube app with no success due to the old operating system. Ive tried my old username and password before i had to put in my Google info. Nothing has been working. I really dont want to have to buy another iPod just to watch videos because thats the only think i can do with my iPod now. Its in great shape considering its age and no physical damage at all. It just stopped logging me into YouTube and i dont know what to do. If someone could help me resolve my problem id greatly appreciate it.

    I have the same problem few days before but solved.
    If your google account has set up 2-step verification, switch it off and restart the youtube on your ipad/ipod/iphone devices. then u can log in.
    Hope this can solve your problem

  • Multiple Accounts for Youtube App: Apple TV

    With the new Youtube update for Apple TV, can I use more than one Youtube/Google account. Will I also always have to resign in to the app?

    If you mean to use another account - Yes.

  • YouTube App - Can't log in with my Google Account

    I have a problem, since i have changed my google account I can connect no more to the YouTube service with the pre-installed app on my iPhone 4s but i can correctly log in using the website.
    The error is "Username or Password aren't correct"
    What's happened? What can I do?
    Thanks a lot

    Last night I performed the update for the new Apple TV OS.  When I went to the Youtube App, it miraculously worked... after weeks of getting the error message "Cannot connect to youtube".
    So whoop!

  • When I try to update my youtube app, I'm asked to sign in with my Apple ID. The only problem is, it shows my sons Email instead of mine! When I go to settings my email is still there. How can I change the email when it asks me to put MY password in?

    When I try to update my youtube app, I'm asked to sign in with my apple password but the email it shows is my sons! In my settings it still shows my email. Nowhere in my settings on my Ipod or if I sign in to Apple with my computer does it show his email. Can anyone help???

    - Apps are locked to the account that purchased them. Thus it appears that yor sone purchased the app.
    - To update apps you have to sign into the account that purchased the apps. If you have apps that need updating purchased from more than one account you have to update them one at a time until the remaining apps were purchased from one account.

    Go to the Youtube App, then click More,  then at the top left corner I believe there is a button that says ”Sign In/Sign Out”. Then just type in your other account’s information. Hope I helped!

  • Why can't I sign into the YouTube app. I just get authentication error

    Why can't I sign into the YouTube app. I just get authentication error

    No it isnt an issue with the youtube account- i have no problem signing in to youtube. I can even sign into the Google Youtube app.  What i cannot sign into is the Apple Youtube app- the one linked to by Safari when you click on a youtube video. Please help me solve this problem as your current answer isnt helpful, thanks

  • YouTube app not logging in

    The YouTube app that came on my iPad will not log into my account. Is this a known issue? I can log into YouTube on the web just fine.
    Thanks.

    Just to clear this up, the issue is caused when a user is attempting to log in through the app when they haven't "created a channel." You will need to use a web browser to activate the channel, then you will be able to log into your account through the app.
    The way I know of is to attempt to comment and you will see a link that says "create a channel."

  • Why I can not open youtube apps in my iPad air? Anyone can help?

    first thing happened was I can not open the youtube apps here in my iPad air. Then I try to delete it then install again but same thing happens. Then I try to refresh my iPad but still same thing happen again I can't open. Then I figure it out that maybe I need to update my software device from ISO 7 to ios 8 but worst thing happened. I can't open the YouTube apps again and my movie box apps I can't open also. And my iCloud settings i can't access also beacause they said need to check my email and verify my iCloud settings. But worst thing happen is I forgot my password in my email.. god! Can anyone help me pls of what I'm going to do? To fix this problem? Thank you!

    You do NOT need to restore your iPad.
    I believe that the problem is that there is a disconnect with your iTunes account and your iPad. What you are experiencing is a somewhat common issue after you sync your iPad, update your device - it could be a number of reasons that are causing it. the recommended fix is to download another app in order to "reconnect" your ID and iTunes account to the iPad.
    You can read more about it here. You will need a WiFi internet connection in order to fix it - or you have to be able to sync with your own iTunes library.
    iOS: Troubleshooting applications purchased from the App Store
    But this is what it says in the article.
    3. Install another app from the App Store
    If none of your user-installed apps will launch, there could be an issue with Apple ID authorization. Download and install a free (or paid) app that isn't already installed on your device to reset this information. You could also remove an app from your iOS device and download it again from the App Store or sync the app from your computer.
    Note: If you have installed apps using multiple Apple ID accounts, you may need to perform this step for each account.

  • Can't log into YouTube app

    Hi!
    The YouTube App that came with my iPad is not recognizing my sign in.
    Any suggestions?
    Thanks!
    cj

    I figured it out ! Yay. Ok here's the steps
    Go to www.youtube.com from pc not ur iPad
    Log in
    Hit drop down next to you photo you'll see then on right google settings and on left side of line YouTube setting that is what you want to select
    Then click Mobile Setup at this screen you'll create a username now if you were using the YouTube account before it switch to google don't create a new one you have one. If you never had a YouTube and started one create a name here..
    So that you can log in on your iPad
    For those of you like me who have had YouTube for years and your. Sign in name not workin I'm workin on figuring how to link my account with google and sign in.

  • YouTube app - Authentication Error

    I've been researching for over an hour and a half, thinking I've found the answer, only for it to fail.  I'm a bit aggravated, and this is my first post here, so forgive me if I've posted this in the wrong area.
    Okay... deep breath.  Here it goes.
    I'm attempting to log in to the YouTube app on my iPhone 4S (with iOS 6.1.2).  Every single time I log in, I get that dreadful "Authentication Error" message pop up.  I found that apparently I needed to set up a 2-step verification process via my Google account.  I did.  I then added the YouTube app to the "Application-specific passwords" section.  When I attempt to log into the app, it tells me I need to log in with my Google account password - not the password I was just given.
    The thing is, I can log in via the mobile site on my iPhone - minus the pesky authentication error!  So what's the problem here?  What am I missing?
    HELP!

    I've been having the same issue.
    The 2-step verification and app specific password worked for the (non-native) Youtube App on my iPhone 5.  But it did not work for the native Youtube app on the iPad.
    Very frustrating that I cannot access my subscriptions on the iPad, as that's where I view Youtube the most :S

  • Troubles with YouTube app

    If I try to access YouTube through the built-in app it will not show me all my subscriptions although  will get video updates for all my subscriptions under "new videos" - but it will tell me I am not subscribed to them, and hitting the "subscribe" button gets an error message of "YouTube is not available"
    If I access my YouTube account through safari the YouTube page shows ALL my subscriptions without an issue although there is an annoying bar going across my desktop view that I can't seem to get rid of ...
    The question is - why is there not an available APP SUPPORT/UPDATE for the BUILT IN APPS through the apple store? It would be very nice if a person could REINSTALL a built-in app if they are having issues without having to hook up to another computer - it would also be great if there was a better way to let Apple know when there is an issue with one of these apps as well ...
    How the heck to I get the BUILT IN YOUTUBE APP to recognize ALL my subscriptions? (it's an app issue because the same problem occurs across ALL 4 of our iPads no matter the IOS or model)
