The fact that you cannot select without giving schema name does not mean the table does not exist.

ORA-14404: partitioned table contains partitions in a different tablespace
 *Cause: An attempt was made to drop a tablespace which contains tables
         whose partitions are not completely contained in this tablespace
 *Action: find tables with partitions which span the tablespace being
          dropped and some other tablespace(s). Drop these tables or move
          partitions to a different tablespace

Regards
Michel
