Hi Hannah,

 

When I log in to Dropbox, I see a list of folders on the left hand side. My supervisor also gave me access to another folder but instead of showing up with the folders I already have, it opens up in a separate link. I can't get it to show up with the other folders like it used to. Does that make any sense?

Hi JSheppard42, I'm not sure I understand exactly what you're referring to.

 

Are these shared folders you're seeing, of a shared link on the site? Do you access those other folders using different account credentials?

 

Please clarify exactly how you're accessing both sets of files to assist further.
