Can't Share Notebooks

[Charlie Calvert 2]

I, quite suddenly, seem to have lost the ability to share notebooks. Two days I could and did do it. Now I can't. I can share notes, but not notebooks.

I've tried several clients, windows, and web on Windows and Linux. I use it on my phone also, but usually just sign into the account from which I am trying to send the notebook. I'm also having trouble accessing shared notebooks from other people. Again, quite suddenly. I get the invite, and see the link to the notebook, but on the web nothing happens when I click the link. On the Windows client I get an error about permissions.

Any idea what is up?

Hi.  Have you restarted the devices that are causing you problems?  Any of them showing sync issues?  Any chance you could create a new basic account and try sharing to/ from that?  No clue as to what might be causing the same problem from multiple devices.  If you can contact support I'd recommend it - or try twitter.

I believe I have finally figured this out. I had, apparently, exceeded the number of (shared?) notebooks that one can have on an account. Or something along those lines. I have my students share folders with me, so I had a lot of shared folders. In an attempt to simplify my view, I deleted a number of old shares from previous quarters. After that things started working again. I'm not quite so engaged with this issue that I want to simulate sharing too many notebooks in order to test my theory, but at least for now my problem appears to be resolved and I have at least a reasonable hypothesis as to what was wrong. Thank you for taking the time to reply to my question.

You may have a lot of shares - the official word on this is:
