Transfer all content to another person's dropbox?
Is there a way to move hundreds of photos and videos from one person's dropbox to another person's dropbox?
Preferably and easy way...
Thanks
Hi NancyTheSpeedy,
Definitely the easiest way would be as Jay mentioned, by sharing any files or folders you need from your account to another, if they have one.
You can see the full set of steps involved here https://help.dropbox.com/accounts-billing/multiple-accounts/move-files-between-accounts
If they don't have have an account, and want to take over paying for this one, instead, you can update the payment method, and change an account's email and password in the account settings.
Are they on Dropbox Business?
Team accounts can invite you and handle the account as a licensed member on their billing, instead of you paying for it yourself.
I hope that gives some more options to think about!
Hi and thank you for answering. This might be a better way to describe my predicament:
I helped a Startup by paying for Dropbox, and uploaded hundreds of photos for them, which we have shared already
Now it's time for them to pay for it, not me. So the question would be,
Is it easier to transfer all the files and folders to their own account? Or leave it as is and change the credit card on file?
I truly don't know which is more logical to do, or how hard it is to transfer that much stuff.
