This wikiHow teaches you how to switch to a different Google account on YouTube Music without signing out of your current one, using a desktop internet browser. Once you're signed in to multiple Google accounts, you can easily switch between different accounts from your profile menu.

Steps

1
Open YouTube Music in your browser. Type https://music.youtube.com into the address bar, and press ↵ Enter or ⏎ Return on your keyboard.
2
Click your avatar on the top-right. You'll find a thumbnail of your profile picture in the upper-right corner of the page. It will open your account menu in a drop-down.
- If you're not signed in, you'll see a blue SIGN IN button here.
3
Click Switch account on the menu. This will open a list of all the Google accounts you're signed in on this computer.
4
Click on the account you want to sign into. If you're already signed in to another Google account on your computer, you'll see it on the Switch account menu.
- If you see your account on the drop-down list, just click on it to switch accounts.
5
Click Add account on the menu to add a new account. This option is listed next to a figurehead and a "+" icon at the bottom of the drop-down menu. It'll open the Google sign-in panel on a new page.
6
Login to the Google account you want to use if prompted. When you sign in, you'll automatically be redirected back to YouTube Music.
- If you have other Google accounts saved on this computer, click on it on the sign-in page, and enter your password to sign in.
- If you don't see your account, sign in with your email or phone and your password.
