I just bought a new phone (Android) and installed Dropbox. I login, see my files, but when I try to open one, a page appears asking me to login to Dropbox again to connect to Microsoft Office integration. I connect to Dropbox again and this error appears: 403 error disallowed useragent. Can someone help me?
