Today i have tried to put my youtube account on hide mode and i can not see it anywhere anymore

Hello, thank you for using Howly.
Let's try to turn on your YouTube channel:

  1. Sign in to YouTube.
  2. Go to create a channel and fill out the form. This action will restore your YouTube channel.
  3. In the form, don't click "To use a business or other name, click here." This action will create a channel
    instead of restoring your hidden channel.
  4. After you re-create your public channel, you can make your videos and playlists viewable in the Videos page.

Then, your account should be restored via the New Account route I initially linked to you
Please carry out the following steps:

Customer Replay

when i put the channel on hide mode it was standing there that i can unhide it whenever i want but its so strange that i can not find it at all ... now. and even when it would have been that i have deleted it i guess at least an email would have been send that the channel was deleted right?
ok

  1. Open the link below (creating a new account)
    http://www.youtube.com/create_channel
  2. Fill out the form and click Create Channel.
    If the form suggests "To use a business or other name, click here", don't click on that. This action will create a channel instead of restoring your hidden channel.
