The contents of public folders are not cached and stored on your Mac
unless you subscribe to them. Therefore, you can not put a public folder
directly into your Favorites bar.

However, if you drag the public folder to your Subscribed Public
Folders, which will cache and synchronize the contents, you can put the
*subscribed* public folder into your Favorites bar.

Hope this helps!

I assumed this was a bug at first... Makes sense that you couldn't link to them directly out of the Public Folders. MS should include this in their documentation.

Thanks for you help!
