Re: cannot write to shared notebook

File permissions. You didn't have write permissions on the folder and
files in the shared folder. Permissions stay with files & folder moved
on the same volume (same hard drive basically), but don't go with them
if you move between volumes. When you moved the items to your computer,
they inherited the permissions of the folder you moved them into. When
you moved them back, they inherited the permissions of the folder you
moved them into.
You could achieve the same thing, if you reset inheritance on the
original folder, via Properties, Security, Advanced.
