    If you have a Business account, it will be available through the support tools in your Admin console. If you have a Personal account that includes chat support, you can just go to the usual Support URL and the Live Chat option will be listed if it's available to you.

Sorry to piggy back here - although live chat support is an option for a Business Standard plan admin, may I assume this doesn't apply to a trial? Thanks!

Hey JEToronto!

 

Indeed, phone support is not available to Dropbox Business trial accounts.

 

Is there something you'd like assistance with?

    Thanks Hannah, good to be assured! Email option works for me, but my non-urgent question is (if ok in this thread): when resuming sync (after pausing overnight/shutdown-restart), why does upload starts all over, and not where left off.

      Hi JEToronto, sorry to jump in here! 

       

      Normally, when you resume syncing after pausing, the syncing process should continue exactly where it left off. 

       

      Can you tell me what you see in regards to the app's syncing status when this happens, and clarify the version of the Dropbox app that you're using on your end? 

       

      Keep me posted, and we'll take it from there!

        Jump right in, Megan (sorry to steer so far from Live Chat)! I thought so too (by def'n: resume, not restart).

        • Syncing [file name]
        • Desktop (Mac) v. 178.4.4811

        Thanks!
