Help, stuck Google Drive on iPhone (self.Blind)
submitted by RollForParadise
Before I get too frustrated and toss my phone into a cornfield, I figured I better come ask you guys for some help. I’m trying to set up a giant collaborative folder on Google Drive on my iPhone.

So I have the main Story folder that I’m going to share that’s going to contain a whole bunch of other folders and documents to keep everything organized.
So far I’ve made a story outline folder, I character planning folder, the world building folder,

Now here’s the thing, for example let’s say I clicked on the character folder and clicked add a new document. It switches me over to the Google dock app And asked me to name the new document. OK so far so good. Then I click the back button to go to all of my documents and click on action menu beside the document I just created. I then find the move button and tap on it. I click on my big story folder, then character folder, and it shows an example that it would be moved into here. Period. But then there is only a cancel button and A dimmed button that says reader view only.

There is no way to ask it to save the document to that folder? I am so confused does anyone have any help they can give?

Edit:
Got it fixed! Thanks so much :D

So I just tested it out, and when I’m trying to move a doc to the same location that the document is already in, I get the dimmed view only button. In your case, since you made a doc from that character folder, I believe that’s where it already is. If you go to the details option, it will tell you the location of the document in your drive.

Thanks for trying it out!
I swear nothing was showing up for almost an hour, so I took a breath, took a break, and had a biscuit. I went to double check and see if anything changed and check the detail section like you mentioned end it seems to have gone to the correct place! So hopefully everything is A-OK from now on and I can get this train rolling.

Cheers friend!
