Attention Seniors! Transfer Google Drive files to a personal account!

Attention Seniors!

You may want to keep files after you leave Penn Manor. You can use a flash drive for files on your computer, but Google Drive is different.  Be sure to transfer your files before they get removed from your Penn Manor Google Drive with the steps below.

Create a New Folder with a file name you will remember for example,

“After PMHS”

Right Click on Files to transfer them or drag and drop to new folder, “After PMHS”

Right Click on Folder, share enter your Personal Gmail Account email address, make sure Can Edit is on

Go to your Personal Gmail Account and click on shared with me

Right Click, Add to Drive on the files you want to keep

Right click on files and make a copy (this gives ownership to you, if not when PM deletes your account, those files will be gone)

Right click on the copy, move to My Drive.  This will move the copy from PM to your Personal Drive.  

Have a Happy Life after High School!
