Hi MajorGeek , thanks for reaching out and sorry you're running into this issue!

 

 

When sharing the folder, you have two options: you can either invite Gary by adding his email, or share a link to the folder. If you choose to share a link, ensure it's set to "link for editing." This way, Gary and other collaborators can join the folder as editors and add their music files, which you can then see, edit, access, download, and more.

 

Let us know if this works for you!

Best,

Angela
