Uploading images stored on Google Drive worked too since the Apple Files app recognizes Google Drive as a valid location. Since you have mentioned that after uninstalling Chrome you are now blocked from re-installing because it once again says that you are offline, this means that there is something about the setup of that computer that is causing your internet connections to sometimes be blocked. You have to manually enable it by clicking on the three dots icon to the side of a specific document, then toggle “Available Offline” to access your file from anywhere. In an attempt to save space locally, Google Docs only saves recently accessed files locally for use offline. “My Drive” and “Shared drives” are both available via Google Drive File Stream. “Google Drive” appears in your Finder sidebar under “Devices.” Click the “Google Drive” device to access your files. They can only be accessed via the virtual drive, and only when Drive for desktop is running.

Where are Google Docs stored offline?įiles and folders selected as available offline are stored in the User directory cache and not accessible using a file explorer. If that doesn’t do anything, reset the browser to its original configuration. In some cases, plugins that you’ve added to your browser - whether Safari, Firefox or another browser - may be interfering with Google Docs.If you’ve recently added any new plugins, try disabling them first and then try Google Docs again.

In the event that it is already enabled, it’s always a good idea to switch it off, and then back on again.

Within the Home screen of Google Docs, just open the Docs menu, click Settings, and then turn on the toggle next to Offline. Why can’t I make my doc available offline? Once you’ve done this, you’ll be able to continue editing and saving your documents whenever you lose internet access. Click the hamburger menu in the top-left corner of the screen (), select Settings and enable the Offline toggle. Open Google Docs and sign into your Google Account if you have not done so already. The Google Drive Installer will be downloaded to your Mac’s Downloads folder.
