# How to Recover Youtube Account Without Phone Number or Email

If you’ve lost access to the email account associated with 1-833- 522- 0464 YouTube account and can no longer remember your password, there are a few steps you can take to try to recover your account.

1. Try resetting your password using the Google Account Recovery page (g.co/recover). You may be able to use other contact information associated with the account, such as a phone number or alternate email address, to verify and reset your account.

2. If that doesn’t work, create a new Google Account with the same username as your old account if possible, so that all of your subscriptions remain intact on your channel when you regain access. Once you’ve created it, simply go back to Account Recovery again and this time enter both accounts — your (closed) account followed by the newly created account, which should give you access back to your old YouTube profile once it’s verified.

3. If nothing else works, contact YouTube directly through their Help Center for further assistance: https://support.google.com/youtube/?hl=en#topic=3024087

## How can I recover my old YouTube account without email?

How do I recover my lost YouTube account?
Recovering a lost YouTube account can be a difficult process, but there are steps you can take to try to regain access. First, check the email accounts associated with the account to see if Google sent an alert about suspicious activity or login attempts. If so, follow the instructions in the email and reset your password. Then, visit https://www.google.com/accounts/recovery/ and use any of their tools (e.g. phone numbers or recovery emails) that can help identify your account and restore access to it. Finally, if none of the above methods work, contact YouTube support at https://support.google.com/youtube/?hl=en#topic=3093221 for further assistance in recovering your account information or resetting your credentials

## How do I know what email is associated with a YouTube account?

If you need to find out what email address is associated with a YouTube account, there are several steps you can take. First, try searching Google for the username or channel name of the YouTube account in question. If the user has linked their account to other social media profiles, these may include an email address that can be used to contact them.

You can also use the contact form available on any active YouTube page: look for “Contact Us” at the bottom of any page and fill out the form with as much information about your inquiry as possible. The more details you include in your request, such as links to videos or channels and usernames, the easier it will be to identify who the account owner is so they can respond appropriately.

Finally, if none of these methods work or aren’t possible due to time constraints, consider using a third-party platform like ZoomInfo or Voila Norbert—both services offer a comprehensive database of email addresses associated with various web accounts, including YouTube accounts—but keep in mind that these services often come at a cost.

### Does YouTube delete old accounts?

YouTube does not automatically delete old accounts. If an account has been inactive for more than two years, YouTube may consider it abandoned and delete it. To prevent this from happening, users must log in to their account at least every two years to keep the account active. Additionally, users can adjust their account settings to receive regular notifications from YouTube about upcoming changes or updates so that they are more likely to remember to log in from time to time.

### What if I can't recover my Gmail account?

If you are unable to recover your Gmail account, it is important that you try all of the steps outlined on the Google account recovery page. This includes confirming certain information and answering the security questions associated with the account. If this does not work, you can contact Google's customer support team for help using their online form or by calling 1-855-836-3987. You should have as much information about your account on hand as possible when you contact them (e.g. email address, creation date) so that they can verify your identity and help you regain access to your account.

### Are old YouTube accounts deleted?

An old YouTube account may be deleted if the account owner has not been active on the platform for an extended period of time. To ensure your YouTube account is not deleted, it is recommended that you log into your account at least once every nine months and upload or watch content regularly to keep it active. Additionally, you should also make sure to regularly update any personal information associated with your YouTube profile.

### How do I find all my YouTube accounts?

If you have multiple YouTube accounts associated with different email addresses, finding them can be a challenge. Fortunately, there are a few steps you can take to locate your accounts and keep track of them in the future.

1. Review the emails associated with your current and previous Google account(s). Sometimes when you create a new YouTube account, it will be linked to an existing Google account using an email address that was previously used for another YouTube account.

2. Sign in on all devices (i.e. computers, tablets) where you're signed in to any of your YouTube accounts and review each browser's history/cache, as well as any saved passwords or autofill information for usernames and passwords associated with any of your YouTube accounts.

3. Find “My Channel” on the youtube.com homepage. This should show any channels you created or subscribed to that the user currently logged into your Google profile on that device or browser session (if applicable) has subscribed to.

4. Review previous invoices from online stores like iTunes or Amazon if you've ever purchased music videos, movies, etc. through one of your YouTube accounts. They often include details about which channel was used during the checkout process, which could help identify a previous account name and email address combination.

## **Strategy 1: Gather Information**

Your YouTube account was set up with an email address and password - recovering these will go a long way in restoring access to your account. Begin your recovery project by gathering as much information as possible about your YouTube account. Try to determine what email address was used during sign-up and if there were any other emails associated with the account.

**Play detective by using these tips to gather details:**

**Email Inbox:** If you have access to the email address you suspect may be associated with your YouTube account, search your inbox for emails from YouTube related to account creation, notifications, or password changes. If you find one, it will confirm that that email address is linked to your YouTube account.

Google Account Dashboard: Since YouTube is owned by Google, you can also find some account details through the Google Account Dashboard. Sign in with any Google account you have credentials for. Navigate to the dashboard and look for the YouTube section to find associated email addresses and connected services. If you don't see a YouTube section, your YouTube account may not be associated with that particular Google account.

## Strategy 2: Explore Work Email Options

If a previous employee created the account, there's a chance they used their work email as a primary or secondary backup address on the YouTube account. If that employee's email was used to create the account or was listed as a backup, it means that clicking the "Forgot Password" option could trigger an email to arrive in that inbox. Consider reaching out to your IT department and politely requesting that they temporarily reset the email account. This could be a valuable resource in the recovery process.

### Strategy 3: Check Brand Accounts

Visit https://myaccount.google.com/brandaccounts and see if your organization's account is listed under "Your Brand Accounts." If so, you might be in luck. The designated owner of the Brand Account can transfer ownership to another Google Account that you already control.

### Strategy 4: Visit Gaia Link

If you think you may have a YouTube channel created before YouTube was integrated with Google, visit www.youtube.com/gaia_link.

If you have access to an old password associated with the account, this strategy may be the solution you need. Follow the instructions provided on the page and see if it helps you recover your account.

### Strategy 5: Account Recovery

Still no luck? If not, go to https://accounts.google.com/signin/recovery and start the account recovery process. This step involves answering questions to confirm that you own the account, so you'll need access to the email you used to create the account.

Provide as much accurate information as possible to increase your chances of success. Be thorough and patient during this process.

### Strategy 6: Username Recovery

Try signing in to https://accounts.google.com/signin/v2/usernamerecovery?flowName=GlifWebSignIn&flowEntry=ServiceLogin and identify your account. Check to see if you have access to the phone number or recovery email address associated with the account. Feel free to try multiple accounts if necessary. We're committed to helping you regain control.

### Strategy 7: Use the YouTube Troubleshooter

Visit https://support.google.com/youtube/troubleshooter/3219097?hl=en and answer the questions carefully, providing information about how the account was last accessed. Explore the different recovery options offered, such as indicating if you suspect someone else is using your account or if you've forgotten your username.

**Last resort: Copyright takedown - handle with caution**

As a last resort, you may consider submitting a copyright takedown request. Remember that this option results in the deletion of your entire YouTube channel. You should only attempt this after exhausting all other methods.
