    Hi Isabel C.7, happy Monday, let's jump right into this! 

    Would you mind clarifying which Dropbox plan you're currently using? 

    One of the tags used for your Community post was "Dropbox Family". Is it safe to assume this is the plan you're currently under? If so, then you can use these steps in order to make someone an admin for your Family plan. 

    Let me know more, and we'll take it from there!

    Did you manage to add your daughter as an admin to your Dropbox account following Megan’s steps? 

    If not, feel free to let us know and we can further assist.
