Network Connection Error wouldn't be related to a bandwidth overage.

Is this on a computer or mobile device? If it's on your computer, Dropbox will only sync the files and folders that you place within the Dropbox folder that gets created on your drive. It can't sync your files unless you put them into the Dropbox folder yourself.

No. Once a device has been unlinked from your account, it can only be relinked from that device. There's no way to relink from the Dropbox website or a different device. If it's already been unlinked, there's no way to delete the files without access to the device.

Don't use the Documents folder on the Mac. There's really no reason to. Just create a Documents folder within Dropbox and use that instead. You can use the same folder on both the laptop and desktop, and all your files will be in one location. This is how Dropbox was intended to be used.

Since you need the ability to upload to the folder, a share link won't work. You can't upload files through a share link as it only allows View access. Instead, ask the owner to send you a File Request. That will allow you to upload files to her account without affecting your own. https://help.dropbox.com/files-folders/share/create-file-request https://help.dropbox.com/files-folders/share/received-file-request

You need more free space available on your drive. I don't know how the minimum is caclulated but there's always some overhead in syncing that requires more space for the sync process than the actual size of the files.

I can't comment on the Google integration, but with Office that's actually a limitation imposed by Microsoft, not Dropbox, and it is documented. https://help.dropbox.com/installs-integrations/third-party/microsoft-office-faq Do I need a special license to edit my Dropbox files in an Office Online application? If you have a Dropbox Basic or Plus account, you will not need a Microsoft account or Office license to edit your files. If you have a Dropbox Business account, you will need an enterprise Microsoft account with a license that allows editing in Office Online (Business, Business Premium, ProPlus, E3, E4, or E5). Additionally, if you're using a tablet larger than 10", Microsoft requires that you have an O365 license to use Office applications.

Nothing has changed. More than likely you were using two different Dropbox accounts and John simply shared his Camera Uploads folder with you. Now, it would seem by your message, you're both signed into the same account on your phones. When using the same Dropbox account, there's no way to separate Camera Uploads by device. They will always go to the Camera Uploads folder.
