What error message does it give when you enter the new address?

If you no longer have access to the email address but you can still access the account, your best option is to download all of your files and then create a new account. If you're unable to change the email address on the account, then without access to the current email address you will likely lose access to the Dropbox account. Assuming you can still access it now, download your files before it's too late.
I HAVE NO ACCESS TO MY ACCOUNT, MY FILES ARE ALL GONE, AND PHISHING EMAILS ARE GOING OUT IN MASS DUE TO A DROPBO HACK - HELP!
I CAN'T ACCESS IT TO SHUT IT DOWN AND DROPBOX HAS ZERO CUSTOMER SERVICE - WORST EVER - CAN'T REACH A HUMAN - CAN ANYONE ASSIST??

Dropbox Community ModeratorHey Jillyoz - sorry to hear about this.
When you say you can't access it, can you clarify if you're getting an error or if something else is troubling you?
Did you try to get in touch with our support team via this form through an incognito window where you're not logged into any Dropbox account by any chance?
