Hello,
We need more logs
 Do you have a shell access ? Do you have access to the administrator account of NextCloud ?
Thanks

I’m not sure what logs are or a shell access to be honest, I’m sorry. But neither me or my friend have access to the administrater account, it’s managed by our school. Thank you for helping

hey @Vicky

welcome to the forum and thank you for your first participation. it’s very much appreciated.

i read and understood that you are writing here as a normal user of a nextcloud and thus you sadly can’t provide needed informations.

i’m afraid in this case you need to talk to your nextcloud-admin
 s/he would tell you what to do or look for any problems with their installation.

as this problem is appearing to one of your friends (and not to you) there’s one thing you could do: check out the differences between your computer and the one of your friend. not neccessarily hardware setup
 but softwares
 meaning: compare OS versions, nc-client version etc. if there are differences try to setup an environment comparable to your computer.

good luck

Okay thank you very much, I will make sure to tell her to seek support from a qualified teacher.
We use Nextcloud on our phones tho, she has an apple and I have an android. And I have informed myself a bit by now and since I’m not doing rhis on a computer I neither have access to the command line or shell access. Thank you for your help and your time

awww
 so it could go back to differences between android and ios. well this will be difficult to solve then, for you.

Maybe but I wouldn’t guess so, my friend isn’t the only one with an apple phone at our school but she is alone with those kind of issues. Which is strange if one thinks about it, I guess it has to be something about her phone and not about the school server (is that the correct term?) Since it works for everyone except her

at first glance it seems like a setup-problem setup of her phone, i agree.

does she have it fullly upgraded to every available current version? OS and client?
is there enough storingspace left?
is there any difference between going online using her mobile line and using a wifi-connection?

She can see olders, but not access and she dont see new folders
 The connection between phone and server is broken. She can try to remove his account and reconnect again his account.
