To unlink Mac, click Settings on dropbox.com, go to the security tab, and sign out of the device.

I have deleted all my connections and I still get this message.  What am I doing wrong?    

I just want to download everything and move to another service.  I find dropbox far too complicated nowadays.  I have been trying for weeks to get my stuff downloaded.  I want to delete some files in dropbox to make it smaller first but it wont even allow me to delete files.

    Hi, The issue you're experiencing could indeed be related to the Dropbox Backup feature. 

    Are you able to disable or delete your backups from the backups page perhaps?
