Add or remove shared files and folders in iCloud Drive on iCloud.com
After you share a folder, you can add files and folders to it and remove files and folders from it. All participants can access the files and folders you add but lose access to the ones you remove. Participants who are allowed to edit the shared files can also add and remove them.
Add a file or folder to a shared folder
Go to icloud.com/iclouddrive, then sign in to your Apple Account (if necessary).
Select any files or folders that you want to move to the shared folder.
Select
in the top-right corner, then select Move to Folder.
Select a shared folder, then select Move.
Note: On a computer, you can also drag the item to the shared folder.
If you place a file that’s already shared with others into a shared folder, anyone with access to the shared folder can access the file. If the shared file was previously shared with participants who don’t have access to the shared folder, they lose access to the file.
If you don’t own a shared file, you can’t move it into a shared folder.
Remove a file or folder from a shared folder
In order to remove a file or a folder from a shared folder without deleting it, you must move it to a different folder.
Go to icloud.com/iclouddrive, then sign in to your Apple Account (if necessary).
Select any files or folders that you want to remove from the shared folder.
Select
in the top-right corner, then select Move to Folder.
Select a different folder, then select Move.
Note: On a computer, you can also drag the item out of the shared folder.
All the participants of the shared folder lose access to the removed item.
