How do I confirm my email address?

Confirming your email address is required to perform many actions on YouTube, such as uploading videos and posting comments. It is now part of signing up for new members, but if you signed up prior to February 2007 and have not yet confirmed your email address, follow these steps:

1. Go to the Confirm Email page (http://www.youtube.com/email_confirm).
2. Enter the email addresss you would like to use as your contact for YouTube. Please enter the email address you used when you joined.
3. Click the "Submit" button.
4. Check your email for a message from YouTube and click the link in the email to complete the confirmation process.

If you don't receive the confirmation email within a few minutes, be sure to check your spam folder to make sure it wasn't misfiled.
