    Hi there rgau!
     
    When referring to a personal Dropbox account, this is read as a Basic/Plus/Professional subscription. A Business plan would be read as a work account. 
     
    As the message suggests, currently, connecting two personal (Basic/Plus/Professional) or two work (Business) Dropbox accounts is not available. You can find more info on this here. 
     
    However, you can keep the Dropbox account that you use for personal purposes logged on your desktop app, and login with the other account through the website - or vice versa. 
     
    Hope this helps to some extent! :nerd:

I'm part of a dropbox business account using email-A. I'm also part of dropbox business account using email-B. I see the folders associated with email-A in finder. However the email-B folders/files I'm only able to access via the web. How do I get the folders/files associated with email-B into finder? Within the dropbox associated with email-A there are multiple shared folders with a numerous clients. How do I get finder access to it all?

Hey anita253, I’ve moved your post here, as this discussion should address your inquiry. While this is currently a popular feature request, I can see that Dave’s post here has gained some attention, since it emphasizes that it’s possible to use a different Dropbox account for each user login on your computer. 
 
I hope that this helps to a certain extent & I’m always here if you have any follow-up questions or thoughts. Thanks!
