    Even though your video successfully uploaded

    and "processed", YouTube's servers must still

    "check" it for any possible copyright violations,

    "convert" it to their Flash format, and after that

    "database", "index" and "categorize" the video

    such that people around the world can access

    and watch your video. This whole other kind of

    processing sometimes takes 1 or 2 days, and

    explains why you may get one of the following:

    -- your video has not even shown up yet either on your channel or under "My Videos"

    -- your video is under "My Videos" but the thumb is YouTube's grey-&-white camera

    -- your video is on your channel but:..."The video you have requested is not available"

    -- your video is "Live" and public but not in search results when you type the full title ◄

    Like I said, the whole process can sometimes

    take several days. How long has it really been

    since YouTube got and processed your video?

    Also keep in mind that "My Videos", channels

    and "search results" are not all updated at the

    same time, (otherwise YouTube would have to

    shut down completely several times a day).

    Once your video finally is in the search results

    and thus watchable, there's still the possibility

    that YouTube's servers haven't yet chosen the

    20 videos which should appear in the "Related

    Videos" section. Don't be surprised if that part

    is blank and doesn't show anything right away,

    or it appears to display "unrelated videos" that

    you watched recently. Those "Related Videos"

    will gradually change during the next few days.

    I hope that my answer is somewhat helpful 2U.

    P.S.: if you would like some additional friendly

    advice, be sure to always have your username

    as a tag. And when doing a "search", type the

    title of your video "within quotation marks".

    first remember u upload correctly or not and search is mainly based on popularity of videos i think that why u did not get your video
