Signing Up
Open the YouTube website and click “Sign In,” and then click the “Create an Account” link. Enter all the required information, including your current email address. Agree to Google’s terms of service and privacy policy and then click “Next Step.” If you have a Yahoo email account, you’ll be able to verify your email address by clicking “Verify Now” and then signing into Yahoo using the window that opens, since both Google and Yahoo support the OpenID standard. If you’re using a different email provider, Google will send you a verification message, at which point all you need to do is to check your email for that message and click the verification link inside it. If you have a Yahoo email account but you’d rather not use OpenID to verify, click the “Request a Verification Email” link. Occasionally, you may be required to verify the account using a phone number instead. Once you’ve completed the verification, whatever form it took, you’ll be able to sign into YouTube using your current email address and the password you chose when you registered for the Google account.
