My Dropbox on my desktop computer was working great. I wanted to transfer a video from my iPhone to my dropbox account on my desktop computer. I therefore loaded the Dropbox app onto my iPhone. As part of this process they had me kind of sync my iPhone with my desktop computer by me scanning a QR code. This process assigned a new email address to me, that is, one that I don't recognize. I wanted to forget the whole process and just wanted to get into my old Dropbox account on my desktop computer; however, when I tried to login into dropbox on my desktop computer I am automatically signed in but with the email that I don't recognize. It has been impossible to get a dropbox representative either by phone or by online chat. I desperately need to get into my Dropbox account. I would love to talk to somebody about this. Thank You!!

It sounds like you used this feature to connect your computer to the Dropbox account signed in on your phone. Are you certain that you don't have another email address on which there could be a Dropbox account? As you mentioned you're on an iOS device, is it possible that you used this feature to sign in with Apple, and chose to hide your email?
