I found a REALLY old Youtube channel I had (back in 2008)... I remember the username, but I can't remember the password and I did a password recovery, but don't remember the email the channel is associated with...

Does anyone know what I can do to recover the pass?

I guess 2008 isn't really old... O_O~~

But I seriously can't remember the email linked to it, I believe this was before your youtube account was linked to your gmail as well T_T

if you have any way of proving it is you (like in terms of content or w/e) you might be able to email google. Generally they are very good about getting back to you with password issues.

I would say check all of your email accounts you can remember and search them for anything with "Youtube account" in them

lol wtf.. I go to password recovery (because I don't remember the password)... and it tells me to enter the username (I do), and it says "instructions to reset your password have been emailed to you"

WTF?!?!?! I can't fucking access the email because I don't remember the password so how can I check my email for instructions on resetting my password...

if you dont remember the email password, u need to recover it by answering secret question and personal information from the email provider.

When I go to the password recovery, it literally just tells me to type my username, then it says "we emailed you the instructions on resetting ur pw" but I don't remember my password ;;

there's probably a way to open a support ticket or contact youtube to change the email to your current email. Not sure if there are any other security questions or any way to verify it's your account.

Well you only know as much as any random youtuber who stumbles upon that channel (username). I doubt you can do anything else than try to remember the password or the email the latter being more important of course. If there was a way to get that information by only knowing the username then whats the point in having passwords anyway?

I mean, it's my channel so I can verify any information. I made the channel in 2008 before Youtube accounts were linked with Gmails... and it's very likely that the email I used to register the account with originally is dead....

I also don't remember the password, because it was a more general password as several different people uploaded videos to the channel (BW commentary by PsyonicReaver) -- although I remember the personal passwords I used in 2008, I don't remember what general one I had on the account.

I think you misunderstood, he meant you should recover your email password, not the youtube one. When you try to recover your email password you'll be asked something like what elementary school you went to, or whatever you put there.
(Sorry if you did understand and I'm just dumb)

Get that, but I don't remember the email (since youtube wasn't linked to gmails in 2008)
