You can't invite someone to share the entire account. Instead, you create a folder and then you can invite someone to that. They'll have access to anything you place in the folder, but not the rest of your account.

Is this on a Dropbox Business account? Only Business accounts have an Admin console to manage the team.
What is it that you're trying to do?
Its not on business no, its the free option. I am trying to invite a member to be able to access the drop box we have opened, can I do that a different way?

Thanks very much that will do for now
Hi Rich, I switched my personal account to a business account and have 2 more "seats" to add employees, but how do I access the admin console? Thanks!

Hey karilarusch!
You can access your admin console, by signing in to your Business admin account on dropbox.com and clicking "Admin console" from the options on the left of the page or directly through this link.
I hope this helps!
Is there a separate admin account than my user account? It keeps signing me into my user account and I don't recall setting up anything additional to that. I am not seeing the admin console on any of the tabs I click on and I'm not sure what I am doing wrong.
