Deleted Lists Shared to Me by Mistake
timothy.foster says:
I have all my kids in the remember the milk, and I accidentally deleted the lists that are in their account shared to me (like housework, schoolwork, etc - pretty important). I need them back so that I can task them with things to do. How do I get them back?
emily (Remember The Milk) says:
timothy.foster, can I ask if you deleted the tasks within the lists or just the lists? When a list is deleted, the tasks aren't actually deleted, but rather moved to that user's Inbox. Would it be possible to check if the tasks are in the Inbox of the user who deleted the lists? If not, please let me know. Thanks!
timothy.foster says:
I did not actually delete the lists themselves, just my link to them. In other words, my son has a list under his login called Housework. I shared it out to myself so that I could add things to it. I logged into my login and accepted it and then, by mistake, deleted it. The list is still present in my sons login, just not viewable in mine. So, I don't know if I am saying it correctly, but all I did was destroy the link.
emily (Remember The Milk) says:
Have you tried re-sharing the list from your son's account? If you experience any problems, please let us know what happens when you attempt to re-share this. Thanks!
timothy.foster says:
I tried resharing the list from his login, I then went to my login and clicked on settings and then lists and it was not there. What should I do now?
timothy.foster says:
I finally just deleted the lists from my kids accounts, created new ones with the same names, and then reshared them. That worked (intuition would say that it should, however).
emily (Remember The Milk) says:
Hmm, not sure why the sharing wouldn't have worked -- we'll check that out. Glad you got everything shared again.
