Transferring ownership of a document from an edu account
Hey all! I'm part of an organization that has a shared Google Drive, and recently I've made an initiative to make all files owned by the club email instead of dozens of individual ones. Now, the issue I've run into is that one member has a lot of our documents made from an .edu email that won't let you transfer ownership to people outside of the organization. Is there a way I can get around this? Please let me know your best ideas!
This is the specific error message I get when trying to transfer ownership: "Sorry, cannot transfer ownership to [club gmail]. Ownership can only be transferred to another user in the same organization as the current owner."
