Not able to add shared folder to my Dropbox

Hi - they didn't have
File sharing on here...so i just picked this one.  I am having trouble trying to download a shared file from email to go onto my dropbox account on my MAC...and unless I pay $20 no one will just get on a call with me (and I work in film and have not worked in several months)....so I'm hoping someone from The Community can help me

    Well - I kind of figured it out....I gave them my old account email address, and it seemed to work....but I had specifically gotten a different account with my new email address....so I still don't know why it's doing that.

     

    Thank you for your help!
