VERY VERY Helpful ! I'm building my public channel too. I'm a youtube creator but I started out as a viewer, just like everyone else. I have so many playlists that are for my reference only and private. They are now getting in the way. I searched for how to move them - instead of torturing myself by moving 1 video at a time ! No way! Your video came up and I'm so glad I clicked it. Thanks so much!
Thank you very much. I had a business channel, but morphed into a ‘RUclipsr’, and my personal videos were inappropriately clogging up what was supposed to be a news channel. Now I’m getting on top of the mess, thanks to your very-well explained, step-by-step how-to. I’ve watched this video over and over as I move loads of videos. By the way, your method works in my situation where I (accidentally 😊) have RUclips channels under two different Google identities. I’ve added a tip I saw elsewhere, opening one identity in a ‘private’ browser window. Not sure this was strictly necessary, but it is working for me. Best wishes from a very hot a sultry Australia on Australia Day - our national holiday.
Thanks, it worked just fine! Note that the latest version of RUclips channel menus requires you to go to "Content" to find your playlists. Another thing is that the original playlist text description (if you made one) does not copy across to the "Temporary" playlist in its new location, so I would advise copying that text somewhere safe, before you delete the original playlist. Then you can paste it into the playlist after editing the title.
You, Sir, are a genius! I have wanted to do this for so long. I could not for the life of me figure it out. Thank you so much for the video. And your teaching style is perfect. I wish everyone was as good at explaining things as you are. Thank you.
Thank you !! After splitting up with my partner I had to create a new gmail account and transfer my youtube playlists. A nightmare trying to find out how but thankfully I came across your video. Very clear and concise, thank you very much indeed !!
Thanks. This helped me move playlists to my Google account so I could play on my Sonos app. Sonos is a horrendous experience when linking to other accounts (RUclips especially) but you've just helped me fix something which should be much more straightforward than it is in reality.
Fantastic! A number of tutorials show you how to migrate... which deletes the old channel, I needed to keep mine! I was able to move ALL my videos by placing them into one 'new' playlist and thanks to your clear procedure I moved all my videos in 5 minutes....WooHoo!!!!!😀🥳
I came back to like and subscribe. Wanted to say thank you and that I was really impressed with this work around. Can't even image how you figured out all the little intricacies and how you organize the instructions to make it easy for users like me.
Thank you. Very helpful. It was clear, precise and to the point. You spoke at a good pace so that I only had to watch it once. A big plus in my book all the way around. BTW - I bookmarked it for future use as well.
I have 2 different channels, and wanted to DUPLICATE a playlist in both channels. I could not delete the temporary playlist from the main channel, after I had made the copy to other channel. But I found a way to get rid of the duplicate copy on first channel... (youtube blocks delete, could not delete the home made "temp" playlist. But when I rn the playlist, at the top right, where it has shuffle, etc. there were 3 dots down. I clicked it and it asked if I wanted to delete that playlist from the LIBRARY. I clicked YES and it got rid of the "duplicate - temporary playlist" from showing in library. Your video was great....
THANK YOU! i was doing it with pocket tube playlist manager but the extension decided to stop running so now i have half of my channel without transfer and with all public playlists... you saved me!
Thank you... It's working like charm. Just one additional thing that when you creat PLAYLIST then add one video atleast so that PLAYLIST willl visible on other side. Thanks again...
Thank you so much! This helped me save a lot of time. I have a playlist with 412 videos that I had to move and you can imagine the horrors of doing such task. lol
Thank god this one works! I tried other YT tutorials and ended up wasting time because it was so outdated. I'm glad you found a workaround on this thing. It saved me my sanity!!! Thank you so much! Just a note however I did notice that after a while the create button doesn't seem to "create" a new playlist for me anymore. Hoping u could help :(
I'm glad it helped. Don't know why the button would stop working though; maybe a browser refresh problem? Perhaps try clearing the cash before doing it again.
@@ItsFixable All good now. I took a rest from creating playlists for a day and when I logged in again this morning, I was able to create new ones again. :)
@@meryllchua maybe you did too much for the day and RUclips was full of commands to finalize, kind of how a stomach says no more until it's contents digest some (hopefully down)
Great Video. Worked great. Only issue I had is when I created the new playlist in the account I wanted to move the playlist to. I had to include at least one video in the account. If I did not add at least 1 video when I copied the link to the playlist page of the other account the newly created playlist would not show up. Also after you copy paste the URL make sure you hit the continue button. But saved a bunch of time. Thanks
Thank you so much this video! I thought I was going to have to re-add hundreds of videos to over a hundred new playlists, so thanks for sharing this method - much quicker! Just to share, in case anyone else runs into this: I have been re-adding hundreds of videos over the last few days, and today I seem to have hit a "cap" of some sort. Now when I share my Collaborate link, my other Google account gets the message 'The playlist does not exist.' (this is when the playlist is set to Public). Fortunately I've nearly finished re-adding my playlists. But just a heads up for anyone who runs into the same issue.
Thank-you very much! I have been moving several playlists to my new catch-all channel from my instructional channels. It is rathar laborious and time-consuming, but not compared to moving the videos one by one!
Thank you very much for your guided video. After 4 months searching for a solution, you got it. I'll move now all playlists to the new account and thanks again from Switzerland for that solution. My next challenge is how can I move the subcriptions of the channes I had, to the new YT account. Again, thanks and best regards from Switzerland, Rolf
Thank you very much, the best tutorial, exactly what i needed. All the other tutorials only save the playlist to a library, but that is not sufficient. If the other channel is deleted, the library playlist is gone too. But your way is the right way. Cheers!
I'm glad you made a video on how to do this, though RUclips changes things a lot removing features, • 1. does this still work, I work mainly on mobile now but laptop can be brought back online easily, I just keep it off for virus protection. • 2. Is there a way besides one by one to move a video on the same brand account to another playlist, I have hundreds of playlists with more than 300 videos and the entire playlist doesn't load in app anymore. RUclips took a lot of features away like sorting by name which I miss. I know APIs existed,not sure if they do anymore and I'm not educated on how to use them.
As far as I know, based on comments I've received, my method still works . As for moving videos between playlist, I haven't had the need to do it so I don't know how to accomplish that.
Thank you so so so so so much OMG! lol There was another video that tried to explain this but it was too old to show me how to do it on the new youtube set up. You're my hero! lol
@@ItsFixable Absolutely! I worked like a champ! Thank you so much! Now, I am looking for a way to be able to get both my RUclips channels to play on my Amazon Firestick. What I found to do did not work. Can you help me there? I'll be searching through your videos. Thanks so much!
Hey i have a question please. I did everything as you said and it works as intended. I moved all my playlists from channel 1 to channel 2. However, if i remove a video from a playlist from the 1st channel, it also removes the video from the playlist in the 2nd channel. Does that mean if i delete the 1st channel completely, all the playlist on the 2nd channel will be lost? I even removed the collaboration setting, but it still does the same. Basically the 1st channel still has control over the playlists in the 2nd channel. EDIT: I found the solution. On my 2nd channel, i have to make another playlist and add the collaborated playlist to there again. This latest playlist has no collaborators and it's completely mine. So now after i do that, i can safely delete my 1st channel.
Thanks a lot. I started to transfer some videos to another channel.. but I set them on schedule so the videos will auto publish everyday even without me haha..
I’ve been searching on RUclips on how to do this… Even though you make it look so simple I am not tech savvy at all… I’m kind of scared to try it for fear of screwing up my channel… Because Lord have mercy if I do that I’ll never get it fixed… You should rent yourself out to people like me lol.. You could charge $20 to do this for people and you would get hundreds of people asking you to do it for them.. lol😂 Blessed Be

Very helpful a lot of work but a work around. I am -so disappointed YT does not allow a merge from my "brand" account to YT premium account including my subscriptions and playlsts etc
Great video! Amazing that you figured that all out! I have a question: Will I lose all my view counts and comments once I transfer the playlist to my other channel and delete the original playlist?--all the uploads are not my own! I see that my view counts and comments on my videos in the playlist are different from that of the originator who uploaded them. I am hoping to keep those view counts and comments from my old channel under my new channel which is more applicable for the playlist in question. Thank you!
The short answer is NO, you don't keep them. The long answer from one of my previous posts below: So, what is actually happening is that you have created a new copy of the original playlist on a different channel than that where it originated. The new playlist has no views, likes or comments. Views and Likes of the original playlist remain with it and the channel to which the playlist belongs, and are deleted if you delete the original list. I do not know if/how RUclips keeps a historical performance count for channel's playlists or videos which have been deleted. The views, likes, and comments which each individual video in the original playlist received remain with each individual video and are not affected by playlists created or deleted, but I believe will be deleted from the platform only if the individual video is deleted from RUclips. These numbers show up for that video no matter what playlist it is added to or removed from, or for that matter anywhere on RUclips where the video performance data is offered. Realize that if you add a video with 50K views to one of your playlist, neither that playlist nor your channel has just gained 50K views. So this does not influence YPP qualification in the least. How a platform user interprets these numbers is obviously subjective for each user. A channel's subscriptions have nothing to do with any of these numbers.
well it kind of worked. apart from they have moved things around a bit now (April 2024) about half way though my playlists I get told I can't make new playlists but not why I can't. I presume this is just a 'wait for 24 hours and it will be OK' thing but bloody annoying when you can't do all your playlists.
seems my reply did not post. they do the same with changing playlists to from private etc. - you can only do so many then they stop you for a while. I had 180 playlists but some are 'owned' by other so I can't do anything with them. if only yt let us just convert the whole account to/from personal/brand it would be 100% easier but I guess YT likes to make life harder.
That happened to me too but i'm free again because i accidently just deleted my new channel along with an old channel i deleted because i still had my new channel open in another tab, after transfering 14 playlists and my subscriptions over🤦♀It will take a bit to get used to this lol. You have to make sure you've switched to the channel you want to delete only in the one tab don't have any others open because it sort of creates a bridge between your channels obviously so you can transfer playlists over. I think i should clear my browser data too before attempting to delete a channel so i think i'm going to do that just incase. At least now i can transfer my playlists over a bit more slowly without being stopped and having to wait, i'm doing about 6 or 7 per day and it doesn't seem to count when you delete playlists, before when i did 14 playlists i hit a wall so that seems to be the limit but i'm not testing it. Fyi you can have two or more channels open in their own tabs in case you didn't know that, just open it up on the playlists page on one channel, open it open again in a new tab, then switch to another channel and again go to the playlist page. I also used this to more quickly transfer over my subscriptions too i went to manage subscriptions, copied the link, then pasted it in the window opened up on my new channel it may still switch to my old channel though but mostly it stays on the new one. To create a new playlist from youtube studios you can click the create button at the top/right of the page. You can also go to a video or playlist, click the + save button on a video, and click create playlist so it'll both create the playlist and add the video to it at the same time but you'll have to remove it afterwards. If you use the second method you'll have to keep switching visibility though which takes a bit longer but on the studio it's already set to public, although in the studio you'll have to set how you want a playlist sorted. Click on the 3 dot icon next to a playlist to edit it in youtube. There is one last kicker though if you want to transfer to another channel then delete the old one. Doing all of this just helps you transfer a playlist to another channel as if you were sharing it with someone else. So you will have to go with creating another new playlist on your new account, turn off collaboration, refresh, then add all the videos to the new playlist from the playlist you just collaborated on then delete the playlist you collaborated on. Then delete all the playlists on your old channel before deleting it because youtube detects duplicates on all your channels. This is such a pain it really is they've made it so difficult.

@@ItsFixable Thank you so much for the very thoughtful and thorough reply!
Thank You!!
You're welcome!
Sooo helpful. Thank you Mr ItsFixable. May God bless your channel.
You are very welcome.
This was EXTREMELY helpful!! Thank you very much for posting this. 👍🏻
I'm so pleased it was helpful 🙂
thank you sir, I thought it would be more difficult if you use a cellphone, it's actually easier
well it kind of worked. apart from they have moved things around a bit now (April 2024) about half way though my playlists I get told I can't make new playlists but not why I can't. I presume this is just a 'wait for 24 hours and it will be OK' thing but bloody annoying when you can't do all your playlists.
Interesting; I've heard a couple others comment the same about the stoppage. Not sure why that would be 🤔
seems my reply did not post.
they do the same with changing playlists to from private etc. - you can only do so many then they stop you for a while. I had 180 playlists but some are 'owned' by other so I can't do anything with them.
if only yt let us just convert the whole account to/from personal/brand it would be 100% easier but I guess YT likes to make life harder.
That happened to me too but i'm free again because i accidently just deleted my new channel along with an old channel i deleted because i still had my new channel open in another tab, after transfering 14 playlists and my subscriptions over🤦♀It will take a bit to get used to this lol. You have to make sure you've switched to the channel you want to delete only in the one tab don't have any others open because it sort of creates a bridge between your channels obviously so you can transfer playlists over.
I think i should clear my browser data too before attempting to delete a channel so i think i'm going to do that just incase. At least now i can transfer my playlists over a bit more slowly without being stopped and having to wait, i'm doing about 6 or 7 per day and it doesn't seem to count when you delete playlists, before when i did 14 playlists i hit a wall so that seems to be the limit but i'm not testing it.
Fyi you can have two or more channels open in their own tabs in case you didn't know that, just open it up on the playlists page on one channel, open it open again in a new tab, then switch to another channel and again go to the playlist page. I also used this to more quickly transfer over my subscriptions too i went to manage subscriptions, copied the link, then pasted it in the window opened up on my new channel it may still switch to my old channel though but mostly it stays on the new one.
To create a new playlist from youtube studios you can click the create button at the top/right of the page. You can also go to a video or playlist, click the + save button on a video, and click create playlist so it'll both create the playlist and add the video to it at the same time but you'll have to remove it afterwards. If you use the second method you'll have to keep switching visibility though which takes a bit longer but on the studio it's already set to public, although in the studio you'll have to set how you want a playlist sorted. Click on the 3 dot icon next to a playlist to edit it in youtube.
There is one last kicker though if you want to transfer to another channel then delete the old one. Doing all of this just helps you transfer a playlist to another channel as if you were sharing it with someone else. So you will have to go with creating another new playlist on your new account, turn off collaboration, refresh, then add all the videos to the new playlist from the playlist you just collaborated on then delete the playlist you collaborated on. Then delete all the playlists on your old channel before deleting it because youtube detects duplicates on all your channels. This is such a pain it really is they've made it so difficult.
Thank youuuuuu🤩😇👏👏
