# Where do folders shared from a device connected with Bridge show up in Finder?

Inside the **Storage Studio** location in Finder's sidebar, in a folder named after that device. Only the folders you chose to share on the other device appear.

If you don't see it:

- Make sure the Finder location is on (**Cloud Accounts → Mounting**) and the device's own switch there is on.
- Check the device is online and connected in **Cloud Accounts → Devices**. A device that's offline is simply skipped until it's reachable again; everything else still shows.
