  1. Once a YouTube video is uploaded, can I make changes to the video (i.e. re-upload a new video that will appear at the same URL)?
  2. Can I change the description?
  3. Or alternatively, can I make the YouTube URL forward to a new YouTube URL?

(I will be editing a video after it's uploaded, and I'll want to keep the newly edited video at the same URL.)

  1. You cannot make changes to the video once you uploaded it on YouTube. Each video has a unique URL that cannot be changed.

  2. You can always change title, description, tags, and category. You need to go to your "Video Manager" page to change these.

  3. You cannot forward a YouTube URL to a new YouTube URL.
