Google Colab read file from Google Drive Sync Folder

I just uploaded gigabytes of photos to google drive using Google Backup and Sync(https://www.google.com/intl/en_as/drive/download/backup-and-sync/). But I cannot reach those file from Google Colab since it can only display files in "My Drive" but not /drive/Computer/MY Mac Book Pro/Files/... And I can not move those files to "My Drive", it saids server error. I am using free spaces account from G-suit.
I was having a similliar issue.. I dont know if this is what made it work for me, but try closing the back up and sync program

Colab: Google drive file stream access permission is a hassle. Is there a better way?

I use Google Colab extensively. In order to get an easy access to files in my Google drive, I mount the drive to the file system of the virtual machine that runs Colab. Like that:
from google.colab import drive as cdrive
cdrive.mount('/content/gdrive')
% cd /content/gdrive/'My Drive'/'Colab Notebooks'/my_directory
In the beginning of each session, I need to give a permission to access my drive. In order to do that, I need to press 'Allow', copy a one-time-password and paste it to a dedicated text area. It's a bit tedious.
Is there a better way? can I give a permanent permission based on my machine? any other ideas?
At this moment, we can access google drive with the Mount Drive button on the left menu bar.
Confirm the access Google Drive action.
Then it will be mounted to your Colab notebook.

How can we upload files to google colaboratory incrementally

I need to understand whether there is a way to incremental upload to Google Colaboratory.
I was trying to upload a huge number of image files to Google Colaboratory when my Internet connection failed and I had to start again. I observed that the images, which were already uploaded, where now getting duplicated.
Is there any way that only missed files get uploaded? This will save time and space.
I suggest you not to upload them just in Colab, because there is no solution to this problem, you just need to re-select manually the files not uploaded yet. I suggest you to use the google.colab package to manage these problems in Colab. Just upload everything you need to your google drive, then import:
from google.colab import drive
drive.mount('/content/gdrive')
In this way, you just need to login to your google account through google authentication API, and you can use files/folders as if they were uploaded on Colab. In this way, you can manage connection errors, since you're uploading them to google drive, and you can choose between overwriting existing files or just skip them.

How can I unmount my Google Drive from Google Colab?

I have mounted my google drive contents into Google Colab via the command below:
from google.colab import drive
drive.mount('/content/drive')
Now, every time I create a new notebook the drive is automatically mounted. How can I unmount it?
https://myaccount.google.com/permissions
Delete connect "Google Drive File Stream"
You can try this:
from google.colab import drive
drive.flush_and_unmount
Really?
In my code, I need some files from G. drive but every time I open the notebook it is unmounted so I should Go to the URL in a browser and Enter the authorization code.
I think you could reconnect to hosted runtime to solve it.
One way is to "Factory Reset" the runtime in the cost of losing all variables from the workspace.

Google drive and one drive sign in gives internet connection errors

I have downloaded google drive and after its installation when google drive icon pops out for sign in, it gives me internet connection error. however my internet connection is working fine. i have tried it multiple times but failed. Same was the case with one drive sign in. Is there any problem with my connection settings? help me please
This is because your system uses PROXY to connect to the internet.
Try to change the proxy settings.
I would suggest trying to completely quit out of Google Drive and restarting the application. If that doesn't work, then reinstall Google Drive.
