I can no longer open the hyperlinks on other computers.
Dropboxを使い始めて、MacBook Airにインストールしました。Excelファイルを他のパソコンと同期していますが、Macにインストールしてから、ハイパーリンクが他のパソコンで開けなくなりました。問題はファイルパスや相対パスと考えられます。共有リンクに変更する方法がありますが、多くのファイルがあるため、それは難しいです。他に良い解決策があれば教えてください。

Hey 16592181, sorry to jump in here, but I just wanted to mention that this is happening probably because the hyperlinks you created on your Mac point to your local files on your computer.
Since this set-up would be device specific, any other users or devices that would try to access those hyperlinks would get an error.

First, right-click on the cell where you want to add a hyperlink.
Next, select "Hyperlink" and click on it to display the "Insert Hyperlink" tab.
From this screen, select the PDF file synced with Dropbox and click "OK." This is the process for creating a hyperlink.
However, only two files were created using this method, while the remaining 600+ files were created on a Windows computer.
Both the hyperlinks created on a Mac and those created on Windows can no longer be opened on Windows computers.

Thank you for your message. And thank you for sending the URL of the previous question as well. It turns out that the issue is exactly the same as the one in this URL. From this question, I understood that it is difficult to share hyperlinks with colleagues using Windows computers when installed on a Mac. Therefore, this time I chose not to sync using a Mac.
