Treat copying as a change to other profiles
A well-arranged profile can save time when setting up several users, but copying from the wrong account spreads the wrong preferences just as efficiently. Before opening the copy action, identify the account that already has the desired configuration and list the people who should receive it. Those are different roles, even if their names appear close together in the Users screen.
Follow the source-to-target workflow
Emby’s administrator workflow starts in the server dashboard under Users. Open the source user’s three-dot menu and choose Copy Data to Users. The resulting dialog provides Copy Options and a target-user selection. Review the options actually shown by that installed version rather than assuming the command copies every kind of account data. The current user documentation places the expanded copying functionality in the server 4.10.x workflow.
Test a limited, named change first
For example, an administrator might finish one demonstration profile before preparing two new household profiles. Note the source name, select only the relevant options, and check the destination names before applying the copy. Inspect one target’s resulting preferences before repeating the operation more widely. Preserve any destination preferences that matter in a private note beforehand; a shared template is not automatically better than someone’s existing arrangement. If a copied view looks wrong, report the selected copy options and source account alongside the target result. Do not describe the operation as a password transfer or history migration unless the displayed options and applicable documentation explicitly support that claim.
Questions, answered
Which account should I open to begin copying?
Open the menu on the user whose settings are the source, then select the destination users in the copy dialog.
