ximoxMerging google+ accounts
Now that google made + available to Apps customers I would like to use Google+ from my Apps account. So far i had to use it with a free account because it was not available. Is there a way to move my circles/friends to my paid account?

dDonWell if you have made accounts on both, just share circles to this user. (Open a circle and on top right you'll find share this circle.
Or you can use Google data liberation ( https://plus.google.com/settings/exportdata ) and download all your contacts and circles at once. Than you'll have to import them to contacts or upload address book into circles in Google+.

bovineoneThe end of this Google blog post http://googleenterprise.blogspot.com/2011/10/google-is-now-available-with-google.html says:
"For those of you who’ve already started using Google+ with a personal Google Account and would prefer to use your Google Apps account, we’re building a migration tool to help you move over. With this tool, you won’t have to rebuild your circles, and people who’ve already added you to their circles will automatically be connected to your new profile. We expect this migration option to be ready in a few weeks, so if you’d like, you can go ahead and get started with your Apps account today and merge your connections once the tool is available."
So you'll just need to wait a little longer if you want a native way to merge/migrate.

pleflochThanks @DDON for the link. I exported my other account's data, now how do I import it all into my new one? (i tried .../importdata, but there is no such page). Do I understand this is a highly manual process from here?

MrNickCI'd like to do this too. Also, so I don't re-invite all my contacts, because:
1) that is confusing for them.
2) there are so many things people get inadvertently invited to, like linkedin etc, I hate it when I am responsible for people receiving emails and invites etc when they don't have to.
I signed up with user...@gmail.com.
Have since set up. user...@mydomain.com with g-apps. Have got previous gmail account to automatically forward on all emails, so its effectively defunct, apart from all the archived messages.
But I would rather use the domain for my G+, move over all contacts/contents then shut the old one down.

imamacI need this migration tool. It's been a few weeks and there is still no update to that blog post. I have not seen any additional posts about the tool, either. Has anyone else?
