Re: Owner of shared folder deleted, how to make a new owner?

Hi,
as in the title, the owner of a folder is deleted, and I want change another person to become owner and delete the old owner from the shared folder. Any ideas?

Cheers

Only the owner of a share can transfer ownership to another member. If the owner is no longer part of the share, then it's impossible. Your best course of action would be to create a new share, invite everyone to it and move the data.

Can I then rescue the deleted owner? It was my own account.

Rich · ‎02-25-2015

I'm not sure what you mean by rescue the deleted owner.

Lars L.2 · ‎02-25-2015

I just mean to bring the account back, "undelete" it.

No you cant. Once an account is deleted it is deleted I'm afraid
