I'm getting an error that my password is incorrect even though it's not
Hi! I was not able to log into my Dropbox account on my mobile browser. I am positive I typed it in correctly. I was able to change it on my PC browser but it is still saying my new password is incorrect. What should I do? Is Dropbox experiencing any issues?
I was able to log back into my. Dropbox account with my new password about 10 minutes after changing it. I don't know why it kept saying my new password was incorrect after I tried it multiple times. I am happy I was able to log in though. That made me nervous...

Dropbox isnt experiencing issues, no. If its saying its not right its either not right OR too complicated - it has been known that it sometimes doesnt like non-standard characters and symbols.
