Several commenters have noted that YouTube still does not appear to be available after transitioning to the new infrastructure for Google Apps accounts. Please note that YouTube is not available in all countries (more details here: http://goo.gl/VYk5M). If your organization signed up for Google Apps from a location where YouTube is not yet supported, accounts within your organization will not have access to YouTube at this time.
I added all 4 of the YouTube services to my domain and now my users aren't being greeted by the "not enabled for your domain" message when they try to sign in. But when they do sign in they are asked to create a YouTube account - which will require logging out of their Google Account. Is there a layer of separation that still exists? I was expecting something more along the lines of Reader or Picasa.
I have the same situation as Patrick - the users are told to sign out of their Apps account when they try to log in to Youtube. All the online help info is aimed at people who already had a separate Youtube account before this new Apps Youtube feature rolled out. Can someone please explain step by step how to get a Google Apps user signed up on to Youtube from scratch using their Google Apps account?
Same happens for our Google Apps Edu. It is enabled, users are transitioned, but "the users are told to sign out of their Apps account when they try to log in to Youtube."
Missing integration with Google Sites!!!! How to embed the channel into the regular Google Sites page in order to show all videos in the channel or at least recent activity content. A single video can be shown by embedded YouTube player, but normal users do not recognize that there are other videos under arrows on the sides.
"Note: YouTube may not be available in all areas." But for Gmail account it's ok... Yeah right... No Google Buzz, no Google Plus, no Google Profile, no Youtube... Maybe it's time for me to stop paying Google Apps.
Great Idea!
ReplyDeleteThis seems to compete with Google Videos for Google Apps. What should I do as a customer ? Migrate all to youtube ?
ReplyDeleteWhen does this go live? I'm the administrator for our Education Apps and we still are unable to implement this.
ReplyDeleteI still don;t have access in my administrator options.
ReplyDeleteIt is great you did, but when will it be complete? I cannot login to Youtube for 2 weeks now!
ReplyDeleteWe have turned the service on in our control panel, but it is not working. Any ETA when this will actually work for Google Apps Customers?
