Re: Not receiving the 6-digit security code

Hi
I have been logged out of my old Dropbox account and cannot log back in. I have accessed the account within the past 12 months, I tried logging in and got a message stating I would need to receive a code by email which I never got. Ive checked my junk, tried resending the code but received nothing. I tried resetting my password and adding the Dropbox email address to my mail list and still no email. Can someone help?

    Is the email account active? 

     

    If so you need to contact support via www.dropbox.com/support. Do this while logged out - even here (the forums). Consider using an incognito window to do so
