Help linking Youtube Account (Secondary Channel)

[MDS Warmouth]

Hey guys,

I have a second channel under my main email that Im trying to link. But when I go to add my account, it doesnt give me the option to choose the channel. It just defaults to my old personal one.

Any suggestions?

Thanks!

I got a solution for this problem.

The issue is that Steam is trying to retrieve your Google+ account instead of your YouTube.

1. Make sure you have created a YouTube channel if you haven't already.

2. While on your YouTube channel (Make sure you are not on you Google+ account..this is important). Go to Setting and scroll down the page.

3. Stop where it says "Third party tools." There should be your YouTube email which looks something like this "[e-mail]"

4. Create a password.

5. Go to steam and link your account. When asked to log in. Use the email above and password that you created (Not your Google+ email). You should now have your account linked!!

Hope this end the frustration. Good luck!

Stumbled across an even easier way to do this:

YouTube Settings page, whilst logged into your preferred accounts

Overview from left-hand navigation pane

Under the heading "advanced settings," tick the box for "default channel" to set your preferred account as your default YouTube account when logging in with your email address.

Now, when linking your YouTube channel via Steam, it'll default to the account you chose in your YouTube settings page.

I don't understand this step 4. Create a password. where should i do it?

Ok, I did it, but it shows the videos from my other youtube channel, not this one that i just linked? Why is that?

[Kine_ESP]

When nick names over screen can be removed, then I'll upload many videos. I do not like seeing nick names on screen.

Does will want The Crew to appear more on YouTube, like GTA V?

Any idea how to do it now since third party tools no longer exists
