Shared Folders
726 TopicsShared folders missing only in File Explorer on Windows, why?
I am struggling to see shared files on my PC at work. They show up on dropbox.com, my phone and mac at home. I have double checked the file names to be sure there are no "disallowed" characters. I have shared the folder and I have reshared each individual file. When I opened one of the files on my PC it said the file was last edited by the owner 423 years ago. We checked time and date on her mac and my PC to be sure that was not the issue. NOPE, those were fine too. This is the first issue I have had with sharing since we started using dropbox in 2008. Hoping someone might be able to talk me through this.109Views0likes2CommentsI accidentally unshared a folder and now I can't add it back to my account.
By mistake, I just unshared a folder where I was the owner and the folder disappeared from my Dropbox Business account. The folder's name is CMaluk...it appears faded when I try to see it again online. PLEASE HELP ME RECOVER IT.128Views0likes4CommentsI have a shared folder, but every file I put in seems to be locked.
I volunteer with a local hospital radio station. For one of the programmes I do, we have shared a Dropbox for at least ten years and have never had an issue. I recently created a new shared directory but every file I put in from mycomputer is "locked" on the one at the studio which means I can't do anything with it; eg copy, paste, move or rename. Why is that and how can I stop it from happening as it is currently completely usesless. Thanks.470Views0likes12CommentsI'm trying to share a folder with other users, but I keep being asked to verify the email.
Hello , I started dropbox business trial today and trying to share a folder to 2 users .But each time it is asking to verify email address and upon clicking the verification email it lead to dropbox home and nothing happens. Same happens if i add members to the team. Kindly check if someone has come through this and how to get it resolved.141Views0likes1CommentThis setting won’t apply to people who join this folder to collaborate
Hi all - I have a shared folder. If I have it set so that "Only people invited can access", how would that change for a collaborator? I see the note "This setting won’t apply to people who join this folder to collaborate" and just want to ensure that only people added can view/edit the folder and the link can't be shared with others.56Views0likes1CommentView all the folders a person has been given access to and also remove other peoples access
I would like to be able to view all of the folders that a person has been given access to, and I would also like to be able to remove other people's access from multiple shared folders at the same time. This would greatly speed up the management of folder sharing - now I have to click on each folder and remove or add the person.128Views0likes2Comments
