Unlink Dropbox app version 2.3.5.10 from android handset
Hello, I have an old android handset - HTC- One with Dropbox app version 2.3.5.10. I am unable to unlink device from Dropbox. A message occurs Error: ' you must be online to unlink. Check your connection or try again'. However, I am connected to WiFi. I can access the website on my other devices laptop and mobile, but the old handset is not listed on the basic Dropbox account I have. Appreciate if you can advise please. Thanks
My files aren't syncing. Is my app connected to the right account?
I am a new employee to a company. The previous employee had a dropbox acct on the same computer that I use, however my files are not syncing with the other team members for the company. When I open preferences below is the dropbox folder location which is that of the previous employee. How can I resolve this issue?
How can I keep the same number of licenses, and remove the old member?
We have a set number of licenses for a Team. We have had somebody leave and also now have a replacement. Their email addresses are different. What would be the best way for me to keep the same number of licenses and make the needful changes such that I can remove the old one and add the new joinee?
How can I unlink a Dropbox Business account if I can no longer access this work account?
Good morning, I am using the Dropbox Desktop app and I would like to link my new Business Dropbox. Unfortunately, my previous' employers business Dropbox is still linked, but I can no longer sign in to this account to unlink it. Is there a work around that does not require me to sign in to my old business dropbox? Thank you!
Trying to sign into the app with my Plus account, but it keeps redirecting me to a Basic account.
I'm setting up a new-to-me iMac 24", 2021, M1 chip, which came pre-loaded w/ Tahoe 26.2. I'm trying to install DB on it, and bring over all the files from my DB Plus plan, which has resided on several older Macs for decades. I've DL'ed DB app numerous times now, but it keeps insisting on setting me up with a new Basic plan, which uses a Gmail acc't of mine. I suspect it got this email from Chrome, but of course I'm trying to link the new DB installation to the same email I've used for decades on my other Macs. I've tried deleting that new Basic acc't each time on the iMac, hoping I'll then be given the option of specifying my email for my Plus plan, but can't figure out how to do it. I realize this should be basic and easy, but I'm afraid I'm stumped! I'm completely at a standstill in my workflow until I can figure out this basic snag. Help DEEPLY appreciated!Dropbox only opens the Dropbox folder in finder - not the app.
Any help would be appreciated - thank you! (I can't seem to find anything that can help...) Application Affected Dropbox Device Apple MacBook Pro M1 Max, 64Gb of RAM, 2Tb SDD Operating System/Browser (if using the web) MacOS Tahoe 26.2 Dropbox App Version (if using the app) 240.4.8493 (I got this from the "Get Info" in the finder) Question or Issue 1) Whenever I double-click the dropbox app, it opens the dropbox FOLDER in the finder. How do I open the app? 2) The menu bar icon, which previously would show sync status, sync issues, and provides access to preferences, is not shown. I have a 36" screen, and it isn't a case of "hidden" menu items. 3) I know that the app is (mostly?) running. Control-Clicking on a file shows the dropbox commands within the context menu. (See image below.) I also know its running because the various apps are shown in "Activity Monitor" (image below.) Steps I've done to try to solve the problem: Uninstall Dropbox Reinstall Dropbox Restart the computer. I don't feel comfortable doing the "Advanced Install", as it appears that doing so means losing all of my "selective sync" settings, which I've been setting up for years. (And since I can't get into the app's "prefs", I can't super easily see what is selectively synced or not. I'm at the point where I'm ready to toss the program out and move everything to Google, but I REALLY LOVE the program, and am hoping that I'm simply missing something simple, and there there is a quick fix. Thanks - Randall
I can't find the Preferences for the Dropbox desktop application
I had drop box set up on my laptop months ago, the subscription lapsed and I decided not to renew because I just couldn't wrap my head around how it worked and to go with Google One. But that is not available in my country so I am back to Drop Box. I signed up to a plan, but used a different google sign in to the previous one I was using. I tried to set up auto synch but all the instructions tell me to click on the profile picture or initials in the bottom left corner - mine are top right. I can't find preferences anywhere. If I try and install the desktop app it tells me I am signed in with another account. I cannot get Dropbox to pin to the task bar (I just have quick start option) I have now signed out of the original account on the laptop and the phone but still getting the same message that I already have an account. Totally confused and fed up.
How to use more than one Dropbox account on a single computer?
Quick question — is it possible to run two Dropbox accounts on the same computer without constantly signing out or making separate user accounts? I’m not super technical, just want personal + work available without cluttering my disk — what do people actually do?
