Re: I can't open Word/Excel files on iPad/iPhone

I can't open Word/Excel files on iPad/iPhone

Hi.

 

I've searched the forum/web and can't seem to find any answer to this problem.

Until a couple of weeks ago I could edit in all Office-files in Dropbox via both iPad and iPhone.

Then earlier this week I suddenly can't do this, and I'm asked to log-in with a 365 subscription.

Has there been a change I haven'r been awere of, and do I now have to have an active 365 subscription?

I use Dropbox basic, and the files are .docx and .xlsx.

 

Thank you for your time.

 

Regards

Hi again - I have now left the team folder and deleted it. I have moved all the files to my personal dropbox and shared it with the same people as before - but I still can't edit in Excel or any other Office program.

 

What to do?

I'm wondering if maybe the apps need uninstalling and reinstalling to 'pull down' that you're no longer a Team user.
