    Hi there, Jeff K.28, thanks for posting to our Community!

     

    There are two different ways to upload files from your computer to your Dropbox account:

     

    1. Through the Dropbox website
    2. Through the Dropbox desktop app

     

    Here's an article with steps on how to do both.

     

    Once the file is uploaded, one way to share it, is to create a link for the file and then email or text that link to the people that need to access the file.

     

    I hope this helps, but let me know if you have any questions.
