Sorting multiple google accounts - davemchine - 07-09-2023
Somehow, in the far past, I ended up with two Google accounts. One is labeled a brand. They are very similarly named and it is confusing when I’m using YouTube because it causes me to watch videos under both accounts and my viewing history is all mixed up.
I carefully wrote down the primary account that I want to keep and all of its associated information including email address. Then I logged into the second account and went to the option that says delete account. It said that it would delete my brand account as well. Is there another way to sort this out?

log out.
Safari: account 1
Chrome: account 2

It'll probably be easier to just ignore the second account. You can easily switch between accounts on the computer and in the apps. I got something like 5 of them.

Same, but with Firefox on 2

I ended up changing the name on account number two so it shows "DON'T USE!" Hopefully that will help.
