Is it possible to transfer all photos from one lightroom account to another?

[lilya_bisscheroux1736]

I have been using lightroom via my personal Adobe account for years and would like to make use of the account I have through my university now. Is it possible to transfer my whole lightroom library from my private account to my university account? If so, how?

Or anybody have any other tips on how to achieve that? A way which does not require manually sharing each album would be great, it's about 20.000 photo's...

Thanks in advance!

Hi @lilya_bisscheroux1736, I'm not aware of a single easy way to transfer all your photos, but there are several methods you can use. One way to transfer your photos is to use the Lightroom Downloader: https://adobe.ly/4qJhIaI. This app downloads all files to local storage for re-upload in the new account. You are unable to select albums for download, as it downloads the entire library.

You can also share your album with your new account. Some of our community members may also employ other techniques, including using Lightroom Classic to transfer catalogs. I hope this helps! ^CH
