Migrating Bookmarks

- Once the file has been downloaded, sign into Google with your @csuchico.edu account and navigate back to the Bookmarks manager
- At the top right, select the three dots and then "Import bookmarks"
Migrating Passwords
- Sign in to Google with your "personal" account

- On the left, select "Settings" and then "Download File" under the "Export Passwords" section

Migrating Google Drive Content
Note: While you can simplify this process by using Google Takeout, it will not migrate all file types.
- Sign in to Google with your "personal" account
- Go into your Google Drive and select all (Control + A on Windows, Command + A on Mac) and the Share icon should be available.
- Share the file(s) and folder(s) with your @csuchico.edu account.
- Note: You cannot simply transfer the ownership, as the @csuchico.edu account is part of an organization.
- Now that all of your content has been shared, sign into Google with your @csuchico.edu account. You should be able to sign into both accounts at the same time.
- Go back into Google Drive, this time with the @csuchico.edu account. Navigate to the "Shared with Me" section on the sidebar, and you should now see all of the folders you shared with yourself.
- (This next part is the part that will take some time) You should be able to then go in and select files, right-click, then select "Make a Copy". This can only be done on Files, not Folders.
- Once you "Make a Copy" the new files owned by the @csuchico.edu account should be titled something like "Copy of [Original Document Name]". You will want to select all of these, then click the Move icon to move it to the new location. I suggest clicking "All Locations" and then "My Drive" to make sure that you are putting these in the correct account. You will have to recreate your folder hierarchy, but you can set it up the same way it already is.
