    Hi GaleAbraham, thanks for messaging the Community.

     

    Are you referring to downloading a file from the Dropbox Backup page, or something else?

     

    This will help me to assist further!

      Hi Jay,

      Thank you for responding. I'm a new user of Dropbox. To use it, there are two things that I cannot find how to do:

      1. Attaching a file from Dropbox Backup to a yahoo email.

      2. My files on Dropbox are not sorted. I Sign in to dropbox.com, click All Files on the left side bar, and cannot find "the column header title to sort Ascending or Descending".

      Your assistance is appreciated. Abe

        You can access your Dropbox Backup from this page, and then download files to your computer to then attach to an email.

         

        When you click the All Files on the left, on the right column, you can click the column titles themselves to sort by alphabetical order, or modification date and 'who can access'
