I can't share some files with other users, why?

Certain files cannot be shared. When I am trying to select a file, it is not highlighted. Below the file it states “only me”. So I’m thinking that is the issue and I cannot figure out how to change it. Can anyone offer tips?

    Hi SLamon, thanks for messaging the Community.

     

    Are you trying to share a link to one of the files, or share a file directly to their Dropbox account?

     

    This will help me to assist further!

        Do you mean you want to send a file to their email, or something else?
