Google knows that many users have multiple Gmail accounts to better separate all the different roles they play, such as work, social networking and family. If you have more than one Gmail account, you might want to avoid having to log out and sign back in to access attachments and other files in your Google Drive account. While Google Drive only allows you to sync one personal account at a time, there is a workaround that is almost as good as directly syncing. If you’re using the Mac or PC Google Drive app, you can only use one account at a time, no matter what. If you use the Android app, you can switch between any Gmail accounts on your device from within the Drive app, but it won’t sync them. To view shared files, you’ll only need to sign in to Google Drive with a single Gmail address and you’ll have access to all the files you’ve shared from your other Gmail accounts. To share a file, check the boxes beside the files you want to share in Drive. Click the “Share” icon, choose a visibility option and enter the Gmail addresses you want to share with. Choose an access level for each account and click “Share and Save.” Writer Bio
