Hi Stephanie,

Thanks!  The added note from @2010butchd helped me to find my old account. I thought I would paste the helpful info here for others to see, if they have lost their old account and old saved favorites.

The helpful info was from @2010butchd  (paraphrased by tworth7):

Hi People. To find or access your old account and your old favorites, you must type the following address into the URL bar:  www.youtube.com/your old YouTube username (which is your old channel name).

You should find your old account there.  Unfortunately, you will not find any of your old playlists that you had created.  Lesson: put everything into favorites, not just playlists!

Thanks for the help Stephanie and 2010butchd! I really appreciate it. Just wish I had my playlists back , too.
