How to change old gmail to new gmail

You're looking to upgrade your old Gmail account to a new one! Here's a step-by-step guide to help you make the transition:

Before you start:

Backup your data: Before creating a new Gmail account, make sure to backup your important emails, contacts, and data from your old account. You can use third-party backup services like Backupify or Spanning Cloud Apps.
Check if you can upgrade: If you're using an old Gmail account (created before 2012), you might be able to upgrade to a new account with a more modern design and features. Check if your account is eligible for the upgrade by going to the Gmail upgrade page.

Creating a new Gmail account:

Go to the Gmail sign-up page: Open a web browser and navigate to the Gmail sign-up page (www.gmail.com).
Choose a new username: Enter a new username (email address) that you'd like to use for your new account. Make sure it's unique and not already taken.
Create a strong password: Enter a strong and unique password for your new account.
Enter your recovery information: Enter your recovery email address and phone number to help you recover your account if you forget your password.
Verify your account: Google will send a verification email to your new email address. Open the email and click on the verification link to activate your account.

Transferring data from your old account:

Use the Gmail upgrade tool: If your old account is eligible for upgrade, you can use the Gmail upgrade tool to transfer your data to your new account. Follow the instructions on the upgrade page to transfer your emails, contacts, and other data.
Use third-party backup services: If you backed up your data using a third-party service, you can restore it to your new account.
Manually transfer emails: If you don't have a backup, you can manually transfer your important emails from your old account to your new account by forwarding them to your new account.

Setting up your new account:

Set up your new account: Log in to your new Gmail account and set up your account settings, such as your profile picture, language, and time zone.
Configure your email clients: Update your email clients (e.g., Outlook, Apple Mail) to use your new Gmail account.
Update your contacts: Update your contacts list to reflect your new email address.

Tips and considerations:

Keep your old account active: If you're not ready to give up your old account, you can keep it active and use it alongside your new account.
Update your online presence: Update your online presence (e.g., social media, websites) to reflect your new email address.
Be cautious with email forwarding: Be cautious when forwarding emails from your old account to your new account, as it may cause issues with email delivery or security.

By following these steps, you'll be able to create a new Gmail account and transfer your data from your old account.
