A specific shared folder doesn't sync locally to my desktop app. Could it be because of its name?
Hi,
I have a question regarding malfunctioning sync to my computer. I use the Dropbox with synchronized folders on my PC, but lately I have had some trouble with this. I have been invited to access...

The name of the foder is Nya kommunen u.b. - could the problem be with the naming, that it won't accept the two full stop punctuation marks in the folder name? Thank you so much for any help.
Best regards

That is exactly it 🙂
Rename the folder (dont worry it wont change for others) and it should sync just fine 🙂
Wow thanks, that was a really fast answer! I just want to make sure I've understood correctly. I can then, as an invited user to the folder, change the name of the folder on the web, without changing the name of the actual folder that my friend created? All other users will not see the name I give the folder, but the name (with the two full stop punctuation stops) that my friend named the folder with from start?
I hope this is understandable, but did I understand correctly then?
Very many thanks again for the fast answer! 🙂
Best regards

Hi JennyDy
Yes that is right.
You can rename and even move shared folders around your account at will without impacting other people. The only thing to make sure you DONT do is put them inside of each other. So I have all of my shares in a (very originally named!) folder called 'Shares' where I name them something helpful rather than what they usually come as which is 'work for Mark'! 🙂
Yes it worked, thanks a thousand times!!! 😃😃
