Would you mind clarifying the part about having two Dropboxes?
Do you mean two different Dropbox accounts or two different folders within a Dropbox account?
If it's just different folders, there's no way to automatically merge them, but you can move the files of the one folder to the other, by following these steps.
Let me know if that's not what you're looking for, or if you need anything else.

I am trying to merge 2 Dropbox accounts into 1. I have a Dropbox plus on my iPhone but my Mac was using a Business plus Trial. I thought they were both the same account until the trial ran out on my Biz Account. How do I save those Dropbox files in my Biz accounts that have been stored, transferred, copied to emails, etc and merge my Dropbox Plus Account to my Mac to get those files into ONE dropbox account that is active?

Hi Dragonretard
You cant merge accounts I'm afraid. You'll need to use shared folders to move the data beween them and log in to the account you want to keep on all devices: https://help.dropbox.com/account-settings/merge-two-accounts
