Hi.
Recently I've reinstalled Mac OS and now I need to login to my Dropbox account again (it is different account that one I am posting from).
While login there is a code that is being sent to email that is used on that account, and to which I do not have access now because it was auto-terminated for some reason. Also I am talking to support of email provider.
I've tried to login to that dropbox account from web and it is saying that "Email or password is incorrect" while on App I am passing that login first stage and getting stuck with issue that code being sent to email I cannot access to.
Could you please help me?
Here is what I am getting from app

The only way you are going to get in, I'm afraid, is with access to that email account OR by using the recovery codes you are given when you are setting up the 2 factor authenticiation. Without one of those things that second account is not recoverable I'm afraid.

And if I do not have access to my account's email and I do not remember password. But I have my old phone logged in to this account. Is there any way I can change email or password?
Have a look at https://help.dropbox.com/accounts-billing/settings-sign-in/change-email
and https://help.dropbox.com/accounts-billing/settings-sign-in/lost-access-email-cant-change-password
For safety, however, what I'd do first is use the mobile app to move everything in to one folder and share a link to that folder. Then send that link to somewhere safe where you can access it. Check it works and THEN try the above. That way if it throws you out/causes issues etc. you can set up a new account and download everything from your old one and reupload.

Thanks, but all of this options requires whether email access or password and I do not have any of it.
