Urgent help please - v. Worried and desperate

ampersand

I think I have been ignorantly stupid - in fact I feel sure of it and I don't know how to fix it.

I have several em a/c's for differing purposes.

In one, I received a youtube notification for a comedian/musician I enjoy.

I watched it, loved it, then copied the youtube heading only into an em for someone else, thinking they'd appreciate it equally.

Just now, I went to tidy this recipient's file, only to find that the youtube has linked with all my email a/c's and that they can be read.

How do I stop their contents being available, if it's not too late already?

I have changed the passwords, but as soon as I click on the youtube link, my a/c's open up with the new passwords.

HELP, PLEASE!!!

Do the accounts log in with the new passwords on your computer, because you have set them to auto log in on your computer? So maybe they wouldn't log in automatically on another computer?

Sorry if this isn't much help, I've only ever used YouTube on an iPad even then I haven't used it much, so I don't really understand what you mean about it linking to your email accounts.

Humprey10 - thankyou.

The recipient replied including my quick msg[which I sent on the 13th.] Again just now I hit the link[it's a Tim Minchin upload]but top left shows a btinternet addy[which i use for more personal things], top right shows 'mail'. When I hit either, I'm taken straight to that a/c and contents, even when sign-in boxes are unchecked and p/w changed, as described.

I'm really worried. It's too late to ring the recipient to ask for it to be deleted and I don't know what to ask to wipe out the access, if I'm not too late already.

If you want to pm me the link, I'm happy to look at it on my pc. I'm guessing it's something to do with cookies on your computer and no-one else will be able to see anything.

Can be doing it now gingham, but doesn't that mean you'll see e'th too?

Gingham_R

I don't know. But I sincerely doubt that anyone else will be able to see these things from just a youtube link.

If I do see it, rest assured that I'll delete it instantly. I know you don't know me, so do what you feel is best and I'll understand completely.

Also, I used to be a board guide on here - as Gingham Ribbon (I lost my password.) So the team have my full address. I don't know if that helps you feel a little more confident.

Gingham_R

Just had a thought - Have you checked that the address is definitely the right one for the youtube video? Is there anything extra in it?

Ah, bless you gingham, and thankyou again.
In fact, I had just sent the pm, then returned to find your kind reassurance.

Yes, I recognise your name and am just pm'g you once more.

Gingham_R

Thanks. Got your pm and there's NOTHING untoward on it. I'll try to work out how to copy my screen to prove it.

Oh dear Gingham R - please don't go to any further trouble.
If you say there is nothing revealed, I accept your word.
Bless you.
