Hey SM15,
 
Can you just let me know if clearing the browser cache helps to resolve the issue for you?
 
If not, please can you send me a screenshot of the error messages you see (excluding any personal info)? 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?

        Can confirm. Not working for me on Safari 12.1.1

        Same issue as above.

        Same email used for both accounts.

        Private mode has been tested.

        Clearing cache has been tested.

        Problem persists.
