Moving a Shared Folder

Several people share their folders with me. I would like to organize these under a system of folders that I have instead of having them all appear in the "root" folder. How can I do that?

Thanks for posting.  We do not allow you to move folder shared with you into your own folders as it would change the ownership.  To work around this you can make a copy of the files within the folder.  You can then move these copies to a folder hierarchy of your choice. 


I can create a copy of file in the shared folder. However can you  tell how can I move this copy to a folder created by me? Thanks!

Once you have created a copy of the document within the shared folder you should be able to move the copied document to any other folder (since that copied document would not inherit the same shared settings as the original document).
