You removed your access to the shared folder
Dropbox event > you removed your access to the shared folder. I didn't. I took screen shots to prove it was a shared folder, owned by me. I added a test folder online Moments later dropbox sent...
What part of "it's not on an external drive" was hard to understand? I'm sorry but the level of support from dropbox is infuriating. This will happen with every folder in dropbox. "simply sharing it" is going to waste me days of time.
to quote myself:
What about rolling back the entire dropbox? Restoring permissions? Resetting the local dropbox settings/cache/ whatever so that it stops sending spurious messages to the cloud. There must be someone there with the technical knowledge to at least make vaguely helpful gestures.

Dropbox Community ModeratorMy apologies, getho, I must have missed that in your reply, sorry about that.
In any case, rolling the account or the folder back, won't restore the sharing permissions.
If someone removes their own access, or if the folder is unshared, or someone removes a member from the folder, the only way to regain access is for the owner to re-share the folder.
I hope this clarifies things.
Nobody did any of those things. I feel like I've been repeating myself ad nauseam.
Something has *gone wrong*. It *is broken*.
To ask me to believe that this is user error, is to ask me to believe that disparate clients all decided to remove access at the same time.
It is not possible.Why does nobody at dropbox entertain the idea that there is an error here for one second.
