when i do that it says Sorry, cannot transfer ownership to (Person). Ownership can only be transferred to another user in the same domain as the current owner.
Please create an admin playlist. I think that would be amazing. Also, can you do a slower step by step walk through through every step. I'm kind of new to this. 🙂
Happy to create an admin walkthrough. I always try to have the tempo just fast enough not to make it too boring. For longer walkthroughs I add timestamps. You can always pause the video and follow along in a separate tab. Let me get on those admin tutorials, if people are interested. :-) thank you for the suggestion.
The transfer as admin only works for documents owned by people in the G suite organisation. I have documents stored in my organisation g-drive that is owned by users outside the G-suite organisation. I want to transfer those ownerships to users within the organisation. How to do that?
I skydived in this video, it's a great help, I wanted to do it but I'm not sure if what was taught applies to files within the "shared files" content created by others and that I have files inside?
Hi I'm going to start a new role as a help desk technician next week so if you can publish more relevant videos for new admins it would be great... Many thanks!!!!
sorry, I cannot transfer ownership to jaya@shubham.co.in. Ownership can only be transferred to another user in the same domain as the current owner. how do I, owner them? please help me
If you have access to the Plus version of Workspace you can transfer a single file using the investigation tool, find the file, then transfer ownership. The free(fundamentals version) will let you transfer ALL files
I love your videos and I have two questions: 1) Do external links remain in tact when you transfer ownership in this way? Ex: Departed teacher's links in Atlas lesson plans to these docs? 2) I see the wisdom in suspending the previous users. In theory if the old owner knows to not add files, would it work fine for a new owner to have ownership while the old user still has access for reference?
All links should continue to work as before. In regard to the original member of staff retaining access this will be up to the school or company policies as there may be an issue in regards to data access and privacy. We definitely do not give access to previous users for that reason as data and information continues to be visible to users with access. Hope this all makes sense.
hello. I wonder what will happen after I change the file ownership to the new owner and then I delete the original owner's email account would the file I transfered be deleted too?
When the account that owns a Google Doc, Google Sheet or Google Slide is deleted, that document is deleted as well-even if it was shared with other domain users. However by transfering ownership(not editing rights) you change the owner and thus protect from deleting the file.
Well, Even after transferring the ownership of a folder which contains multiple images, to an another account, still it consuming the space of my google account instead of of where it should be, what is the solution for this?
Good day sir.. please make a video on how to make a downloadable PDF from Google slides in Google sites..thank u in advance.. so that my Google slides can be downloaded by my students in PDF form.. more power to u sir :) Ive watched all of your videos.. coz I'm a teacher also.
Hi, I am the owner of the google docs but I accidentally clicked "viewer" in "Anyone with this link". Although I am the owner, i cannot edit the google docs anymore because I am only a viewer. Please helppp
Hello there! Is it, pretty please, possible only for 1 document - map? I cant figure out how to do it but I do not want to transfer the ownership of the whole drive :( Thanks in advance for any suggestions!
If its a single document. First make the other person an editor. Then go back into the sharing settings and change their permission to owner. Hope this helps.
I've transferred a folder from account 1 to account 2. It now says that account 2 is the owner of the folder. But when I go inside the folder and check the individual files, it still says that account 1 is the owner of those files?
Not sure what went wrong. The files could have been shortcuts and thus not in the folder per se, or If no files change ownership, no transfer folder is created during the process and you might want to jump into the admin again. If you dont have access, check if the files are owned by you and you might have to manually change ownership or create copies for outside of domain use after sharing. A real hassle... I know :-(
if the ownership is changed then who can be able to upload the images and videos ,if the owner(transfer person ) does then where will it be stored on the GSuite or on the transfered owner ships members drive
Hi, could you tell me what happens to the files once the ownership has been transferred. Do they retain any previously set permissions and sharing rights to other users? Or do you need to re-share the same files again?
If I transfer ownership do I also transfer the file? I want to tranfer the file from a personal account to another so free up space in one account to the other
Can you help me? Im trying to transfer files from my personal account to my admin account, these are things like surveys and thier answers which cant be recreated. It wont let me because my personal account "is not part of the organization" . can i add my personal account temporarily? or can i just transfer the file?
A super admin can indeed see all you files and communication if they wish so. It is important to check with your school or company what their policy on this is.
