I'm using Google Drive with my organisation account (i.e. [email protected] not [email protected]). I'm trying to transfer all my files to my personal account ([email protected]). However, when I go to share everything and change the owner, it comes up with the following warning:

Sorry, cannot transfer ownership to x@gmail. Ownership can only be transferred to another user in the same domain as the current owner.

How can I copy over the files so that they are owned by my personal account? I do not want to have to download them first and upload them again, as I have some files that are linked to apps (i.e. non-downloadable). This post suggests using Google Takeout, which my organisation restricts access to, so that's not an option either.

Update (7 Oct 2014)

I am able to copy regular files by option dragging them and following Tzunki's method. However I am not able to copy over my Coggle files, and I presume this applies to other google drive apps also.
