Google-drive – share all of the Google Drive with others

We have also seen some inconsistencies re. sharing of folders/documents not with groups but with all attached to our domain. Have you tried sending the group a link to the parent folder? When the link is clicked on it may then make that folder and its children visible to the group under "Folders Shared with Me".

The solution you describe is the best solution.

I personally have "email@address.com" as my top level in my different Google Apps accounts, and I bookmark that page (where I have browsed into that folder) in my toolbar.

This seems to be the best solution for me, and at a glance it is very obvious which folder I want in my other drives.

On a day to day basis, just clicking on that bookmark is enough to get me into the folder that I treat as "root"

You can also use a URL shortener to create links like blah.blah/persdrive that you can then use on public/shared computers where you don't have your bookmarks. I do that for my Google Apps for domains to avoid typing the whole google.com/a/domain.com every time
