    Running into a similar issue on Dropbox on web browser (Safari). Trying to move a folder from my root directory into a different folder. Getting the error: "Couldn’t move 1 item." (with the little red stop sign next to it). 

    Don't see any further explanation or what can be done. Would love some help. Thanks!

    I am also having this issue and have tried these suggestions. Unfortunately, the problem still remains and I am unable to move one shared folder into another shared folder. Prompt assistance would be greatly appreciated.

    I'm having the same issues as well.  Can't move a whole bunch of one-off offboarded user files into a Team folder.  I suspect it can't deal with the changes to sharing.  I really wish Dropbox would get it's act together and show some useful information when things don't work.  Getting pretty tired of all the new features that no one wants, auto-updating client software that completely breaks the chain of testing and approval and no bug fixes.
