Hey there mstgrv,
Could you please try using a private window in Safari to see if the issue persists there too? This should rule out any browser extensions that may be interfering.
If this doesn’t seem to help resolve the issue, please try clearing your browser’s cache and trying to edit the Google sheet again.
Let me know how it goes - Cheers!

I am having the same exact issue.
Using private window did not have any effect on the problem

Also, can you let me know if you followed the steps to allow cookies linked in the option “Learn more to allow access to third-party cookies.”?Looking forward to your reply - Thanks!

I am having the same problem.
I made a gsheet in my company dropbox account (using chrome).
Then share it so other people could edit using the "link".I can't open it in safari normal mode (the same message as above appear), so...
I tried the private mode and clear cache.
Then, I tried to login using my personal dropbox account.... it doesn't work.Still the same message...
I tried login in safari also using company dropbox account... it doesn't work.
Still the same message....
Why?

Hey aabind,
Can you let me know if you've tried the steps I mentioned above?
If this doesn't help, can you just confirm for me that the email address associated with your Dropbox account is the same as the email address used for your Google account?
Let me know what you find - Thanks!
