Google Drive: Determining Files Shared With You

  

"Shared with me" in your Google Drive contains files and folders that you do not own but have been shared with you. Depending on the permissions granted by the sharer, you may have the right to view, comment, or edit the shared contents. The files in "Shared with me" are not actually in your drive, they are just links to files in other people's drives.




Or Type to:me -owner:me in the Google Drive search bar to see every file shared with you that you do not own.



How to Make your own copy or Transfer Ownership of File?


"Make a Copy"

This is the safest way to ensure you have your own version of a document that will never be deleted.

  1. Right-click on the file (or highlight multiple files).
  2. Select "Make a copy."
  3. Google will create a new version titled "Copy of..."
  4. You are now the owner of this new version. You can rename it and organize it into your folders. 


“Transfer Ownership”

Note: This only works if you currently have access to the account of the file owner. If account is suspended, you may request temporary reactivation from your administrator.

  1. Login to the email account of the resigned teacher.
  2. Locate the Shared file from the GDrive
  3. Click on the dropdown menu beside the file and click “Share”
  4. Select the target new owner of the file and select "Transfer Ownership."
  5. Confirm transfer (Click Yes)
