    Hi from me too and thanks for the screenshot and additional details LishD 

    This is expected behavior since the option to create new Team folders is only available on the web at this time. 

    Are you having issues with creating them on the website in the location you wanted?

Hi Jay,

I am a member, and I am trying to create a new folder within a subfolder.

I am a member of the "Office-Quad" with edit access to the  "Team Folder".

Also, note that I can create a folder within Dropbox's Web Console in the exact location where I am attempting to create a new folder within the Dropbox application installed on my MacBook.
