SENIORS: Take your Data with you [from Google Workspace]
There are already a few articles on this site that talk about taking your data with you when you graduate:
Every Fall MDS Tech gets phone calls or emails from recently graduated students who want to access their Drivespace. Every Fall we tell them their data is gone, because we delete the accounts during summer.

Here’s another article with more detail on how to merge multiple mail accounts, calendars, drive material, etc.

Although this process is hardly painless, here are the step-by-step instructions—along with a few automated workflows—to help you transfer your data in less time and with fewer headaches than you might think.
There’s also no way to merge multiple Google Drive or Google Photos accounts together. But you can merge your files and photos into a different Google account.
MY NOTABILITY FILES DISAPPEARED!
If you were switching to a Managed AppleID, and forgot [or didn’t know to] turn OFF the iCloud Sync in Notability….. then all of your Notes just vanished.
No worries…. IF you followed the directions at the start of the school year and setup Google Drive sync.
MDS Tech – Notability: Backup to Drive, Retrieve from Drive (mountdesales.net)
Open the Drive app and find the Notability folder where your current Notes live. [You very well might have more than one, and the 2nd or 3rd one might be inside another one.]
In Notability:
- Recreate your Dividers
- Select one of them
- Click and HOLD on the “New note” icon, select “Import” and Google Drive
- Navigate to the Notability folder. Once you have moved inside the folder that matches the Divider, you can either
- click the individual files you need to download, or
- click the “import all” button at the bottom.
- Do this for every divider you need.
