Cannot access Dropbox account via web

Cannot access Dropbox account via web

I am attempting to access my Dropbox account. I have tried Edge, Firefox, Chrome, and Vivaldi, and all give me the same message after accepting my correct login credentials:  
"Oh hello. Sorry for this little hiccup."

Similarly, when I try to bypass the main screen and go straight to dropbox.com/account, I am greeted by an Error (500). 

On the same computer, I can see my files and folders in the Windows 10 Dropbox app, but I must access via the Web to update the Account setting I want to update. 

How do I get past this problem, which only started today?

Hi There,

I can't access my account due to a constant "please refresh your page" prompt that doesn't seem to load the page. I had just uploaded files and then deleted a few others and now I can't access them. I tried opening in a new browser but that didn't work either, same issue.

I have delivery deadlines that I am under for a client.  Is it possible to resolve this so I can get access to my files?  Many thanks in advance for your time.

Best,

Kristin

Hey peeps! 
 
As a first step, could you please try refreshing the page and see if you’re able to navigate as normal through it?
 
If not, could you please try the following:
  • Access the website through another browser. 
  • Ensure that you don’t have any third party apps running in your browser. 
  • Use incognito/private browsing mode. 
  • Clear the cache.
Let me know how it goes!

This is the second time in about 3 weeks that this has happened to me. I have a DB Business account. Really a problem not being able to access work files.
