Problem I'm having with Youtube....

INTERNET MARKETING

Youtube seems to want me to switch over to using a name profile instead of a Youtube username which I don't want to switch over to.

The problem is, is that now every time I try to upload a video or even comment on other videos, Youtube keeps putting up the message to get me to switch over and I can't exit out of it. It also looks like I can't see the whole message either because it's not allowing me to scroll down to see it all. So even if I wanted to switch over I wouldn't be able to.

Someone please help, because I right now I can't upload new videos, or comment on other videos because of this stupid pop up message.

Try pressing the CTRL key and the dash key (-). That will reduce the size of the screen.

Also, try increasing the resolution of your screen to maximum size, then maximize the browser.

I pressed CTRL and dash key and i could see a little bit more of the pop up, but not nearly enough. I don't know how to increase the resolution of the screen, so if you could explain that maybe that will help.

Thanks

Are other people getting this pop up or is it just me?

  I got asked to change to using my full name too. If I remember correctly there was a tiny link I could click on to opt out for now. I didn't pay too much attention to it as I don't actually upload to that channel, but it seemed like something YouTube were keen for us to do/will be bringing in regardless. I'm probably wrong.
  
  Thanks

  It's not just you. All youtube users will eventually need to do the same thing.
  
  There should be an option (potentially hidden) that allows you postphone the change.

I wonder if this is to stop people having more than one channel or to clear out all the trash.

I have a few channels myself which was part of a marketing/traffic plan.
