"Something went wrong" error when accessing my app on my MacBook.
Hi! I tried to get into my account with my Macbook air and saw an error message, some kind of pink dart and board saying :
"Something went wrong. Don`t worry, your files are still safe and the Dropbox team has been notified. Check out our Status Page to see if there is a known incident, our Help center and forums for help, or head back to home."
The status page doesn't mention anything, and it is the first time this happens to me. Can someone help? Dropbox has been a smooth ride until now, and I have a lot of things on it. If this isn't sorted I will cancel my account and stop using the site.
Thanks in advance!
Louis.

Hi Louis Clerc and Welshi23,
Can you let us know which browsers you are using, their version(s), and whether or not you have switched browsers since you first encountered this error message?
Louis, I see you have told us you're on the latest version of Safari but haven't attempted to use another browser. Is it possible for you to log in with another browser?
Thanks so much!

Something went wrong. Don`t worry, your files are still safe and the Dropbox team has been notified. Check out our Status Page to see if there is a known incident, our Help center and forums for help, or head back to home. and a pink target. Last week I only got this message when I tried to enlarge images but I could still see them in the grid-this week I cant even see them in a grid. Please help

Hi EdainOD1967, Iād recommend getting in contact with our support team directly to look into this matter in more detail.
My dropbox file says "Something went wrong" but does not offer an explanation and my password does not work. My backup file is several years old.
BenDBX Hi there, I have the same problem for accessing folders on Dropbox for almost a week: I can't renew my plan, can you please check? Thanks!

Hey Enquiry JoStudy, let's jump right into this!
Just to make sure here: do you have an issue renewing your subscription, accessing your files when visiting your app or both of these things?
When did you first notice this behavior?
Let me know more, and we'll take it from there!
