    Hi Caraspearls, sorry to jump in here and thanks for clarifying that for us.

     

    To reverse the alphabetical order on the website, you can click on the arrow next to the 'Name' column/banner when navigating your files. 

     

    For more information on sorting your files on the website, you can have a look here as well.

     

    I hope this helps!

Glad to hear that anonymous - thanks for keeping me in the loop too.

 

As for the different profile on our Community, it looks like you used another email address to log in and reply to this thread than the one you had originally used.

 

In that case, you'll just need to log out of the current account and then log in with the correct one.

Thanks for your reply.

 

Yes I did use another email address.  
I do not want to be a member of the dropbox community via that email address. 

In that case, how do I delete @Carina7?

    Your Community profile is linked with your Dropbox account and the email address you used for it anonymous 

     

    If you'd like to delete your profile from the Community, you can click on your avatar (profile picture) and then click on "My settings". 

     

    From there, you can choose the 'Close Account' option under the Personal tab.  

     

    I hope this helps and let us know if you have any other questions!
