Navigate to your <a href="http://www.youtube.com/address_book" rel="nofollow">YouTube Address Book</a>.</p> <p>In the top left, click NEW &gt; CONTACT and fill in the name/email fields when they appear and click SAVE when done. Add as many contacts as you wish to send the movie link to.</p> <p>Now, head back to the <a href="http://www.youtube.com/my_videos" rel="nofollow">My Videos</a> section.</p> <p>From the list of videos that you've uploaded, click the EDIT button under the vid that you've created. Scroll down the page that opens. Under the BROADCASTING &amp; SHARING OPTIONS, choose PRIVATE and select the contacts that you've added. Note that only contacts with existing YouTube accounts are displayed. I believe private vids can be shared only with users having YouTube accounts.</p> <p>More details <a href="http://www.google.com/support/youtube/bin/answer.py?hl=en&amp;answer=92316" rel="nofollow">here</a>. </p> http://www.labnol.org/forums/topic/private-video-on-youtube#post-5934 Fri, 19 Jun 2009 13:01:42 +0000 Anonymous 5934@http://www.labnol.org/forums/ <p>To upload a "private" video on YouTube is easy (you just check the "private" radio button. Fine!<br /> And you're told you can share it with 25 persons. Fine.<br /> Then you're told "you don't have a contact list to share your private video. And that you must create a list of contacts. FINE again !<br /> Then you're sent to a "my account/adress book" page and you're supposed to create contacts. Fine again !<br /> BUT THEN WHAT ????? I've created contacts.... BUT CANNOT RELATE THEM TO THE VIDEO.<br /> And if I press to "new message", my new contact receives an email telling him he's been chosen as "my friend" ! (which I don't care about as I only want to SEND HIM THE LINK TO MY PRIVATE VIDEO. (I don't want to tell him he's been chosen as a friend)<br /> PLEASE, PLEASE, help me !<br /> Thanks<br /> Eva </p>
