Unfortunately, Google prevents you from changing the ownership of Google files owned by your @icsd.k12.ny.us account to a personal @gmail account. Instead, use Google Takeout to download your data, make copies of shared documents with your personal account, or use the Google Migrator app.

Google Takeout

Google Takeout allows you to download your ICSD Google data, including Drive files, bookmarks, contacts, calendar items, and much more. 

How to transfer one Google document at a time:

1. Log into Google Drive with your ICSD account.

2. Share the document with your personal Google account. 

3. Log into your personal Google account and open Google Drive. Locate "Files shared with me" on the left-hand side.

4. Open the file just shared, open the File menu, and then click "Make a Copy."

5. The copy of the document will be owned by your personal account.

Google Drive allows you to access files, folders, and Google documents (such as Docs, Sheets, and Slides) from a web browser or any mobile device on which you've installed Google Drive.

Google Drive should be installed by default on all ICSD Mac or PC computers. To start using Google Drive, click on the Google Drive icon on your PC system tray (lower right) or your Mac menu bar (top right). You will then be prompted to sign in with your ICSD Gmail username and password. 

With Google Drive, you can: 

1. Sync and upload existing files to Drive

2. Set up offline access to Google Drive

3. Access your files on your Android or iOS device

How much storage do I have for Google Drive files?

You have unlimited storage to use for Drive, Gmail, and photos.
