Hi jbruzual, let's jump right into this! 

 

When you mention the Photos folder, are you actually referring to an actual folder, or the Photos tab that you can find right here? 

 

If you access your content directly through your "All Files" tab on your Home page, are you able to do this?

 

Let me know more!
