Dropbox Desktop App installs fine on my Win 11 PC. Unfortunately, I'm unable to sign in to it. The error message reads: "This file does not have an app associated with it for performing this action. Please install an app or, if one is already installed, create an association in the Default Apps Settings page" and the 'link' appears to point to something that includes dropbox-client://o-auth2/?code=........ I've tried several 'clean installs' as detailed on the Dropbox site, but without success. Dunno if I'm doing something wrong, or need to install/modify an app. Any advice much appreciated...;-)Solved60Views0likes7CommentsNew puzzle sign-in
The new puzzle sign in is a pain in gther A##. I just spent a half-hour trying to log in to my account, which used to be simple. Answered all the stupid train puzzles correctly, it said I was verified, then said my answers wer not "quite right". I appreciate security, but I don't have time to waste repeatedly trying to sign in. I'm moving on to a better system. I'm sure other users are equally unhappy.19Views0likes0CommentsI'm getting an error that my password is incorrect even though it's not
Hi! I was not able to log into my Dropbox account on my mobile browser. I am positive I typed it in correctly. I was able to change it on my PC browser but it is still saying my new password is incorrect. What should I do? Is Dropbox experiencing any issues?Solved40Views0likes3CommentsI'm not receiving the security code while setting up my Dropbox iOS app.
I have Basic Dropbox on my Mac and used it for multiple years. I'm trying to set up IOS Dropbox on my iPhone 16, but not receiving security code. I've looked in my email main and spam folders and no email or message on the Mac. Please help.53Views0likes5CommentsI'm unable to sign in to Dropbox on Android via multiple third-party apps.
Application Affected Apps that use Dropbox like Solid Explorer, Wardencam Device Multiple different Android versions/devices Operating System/Browser (if using the web) Multiple different Android versions Logging into Dropbox through another program (e.g., Solid Explorer, Warden cam, etc.) does not work. Dropbox itself is working, but problems is not that. For example, in the case of Solid Explorer, permission is requested but login fails. Wardencam just gets stuck on login (when selecting Dropbox as the destination). It must be a problem with Dropbox? This is what I've seen in Finland/Europe. I've also tried different, completely independent internet connections/operators. The logged-in app may work*, but if you shut down the aforementioned app, you will no longer be able to log in. * Edit. It seems that there is no access to the Dropbox, so this not really help.Solved115Views1like8CommentsDesktop app can't connect to account via the browser connection
I open the desktop app, press the button that sends me to the web browser to connect with my account, it appears that i m logged but it always fails to connect. It appears (in spanish) "The previous session was interrupted. Try again". I reinstalled the app, changed web browser, turned my firewall off but nothing changes48Views0likes2CommentsRemove login or sign-up popup when sharing a link.
how do I get rid of this frustrating pop up when sharing a link with a client? We're a paid dropbox business member and I get a tonne of clients telling me they cant access the files because of this popup. Needs to able to be switch this off. I pay to have ability to share files externally so either make it free and keep the pop up, or let me turn it off.
