# Where do folders shared from a Bridge device appear on my Mac?

In Finder, inside the **Storage Studio** location, in a folder named after the device. The Storage Studio location sits in Finder's sidebar under **Locations**, beside your cloud accounts.

If you don't see it, make sure the drive is on: open **Connect Accounts…** → **Mounting** tab, check it's switched on and that the device is ticked to appear. A device that's offline is skipped until it's back.
