To transfer to an existing Gmail account:

Start the copy process

Details about the copy process:

• The copy process usually happens within a few hours, but it can take up to a week.

Copied files might appear in batches on your Google Account during the copy process.

When your files are finished copying, you'll get an email at your Gmail address.
