Managing Multiple Flickr Accounts

Since Flickr accounts can’t be merged or photos transferred directly, you’ll need to move your content manually. Here are the steps you can take.

Download and re-upload your content

You can manually download your photos from one account and upload them to another.

Note: Metadata such as view counts, comments, and upload dates will not carry over.

Tips for managing multiple accounts

  • Each Flickr account must have a unique email address. One email address can only be associated with one account at a time.
  • Use clear profile information to help distinguish between accounts especially if you manage one for personal use and another for an organization or event.
  • Keep login credentials stored securely using a password manager such as 1password to avoid confusion between accounts.
