Team Member is flooded with all the team files. How do I remove them?
Trying out Dropbox trial and created a group. Invited a member and they accepted but now say that all their files are in my Dropbox Account because I am the Admin. How do I Ungroup them so they gain control of their files again -- and why would Dropbox allow me to grab all their files??

Because thats what you told it to do - note as well that it told them it would do this as well. You are using a Business Plan so its moved them in to your plan. Most businesses want to control what people do with its data hence its centrally managed.
