Hi AdyShearer! Thanks for posting this on the Community.
Can you send over more details on what happens exactly when trying to import files from your Dropbox account to Gmail? Any screenshots you can send over as visual would be very helpful, too.
Also, can you explain what you mean when saying that you need to go home to do this, or take screenshots instead? Do you mean that you’re not having issues, when connecting to your home network?
Let me know.

It simply says "couldn't attach file".
I can't attach a SS as it's not on the screen for long :))
I mean that, if I'm on my phone, away from home, and I need to send something from Dropbox, I can either SS the thing and then it'll work, which is an extra step, or I have to wait to get home to do it from my laptop.- Nancy11 months agoDropbox Staff
Thanks for clarifying that, AdyShearer! Appreciate it.
When exactly did you notice this issue? Was there an update, right before it occurred?
What if you clear the cache of the Dropbox app, and reinstall it on your mobile device? Does that seem to help at all?

Hey, sorry, I got distracted and didn't have time.
I deleted it from my phone and reinstalled. It even needed a new device when I synced, despite having the same name.
But anyway, it still doesn't work, for some reason.
As for your question, I only noticed sometime in the summer, but don't remember about updates as they generally occur.
