Hi,
i have two different team accounts that i want to unite.
what is the best and fastest way to do it?
if i will use a share folder on dropbox1 and then move the data to different location on dropbox2, and then delete dropbox1, does the data is still on the cloud of dropbox2 and wont be lost right?
thanks

Correct. As long as you move the files into the shared folder on Dropbox1, Dropbox2 will still have access to them if you delete Dropbox1. I would still recommend that you move the files out of the shared folder on Dropbox2 when they're finished syncing, just to be safe.

dropbox didn't let me move the share folder to other location.
is it connected to the fact that both dropbox accounts are team account? (business)- Rich2 years agoSuper User II

Don't move the actual shared folder. Once you have the shared folder in place between the accounts and you've moved your files from Dropbox1 into it, move the content of the shared folder (not the folder itself) to another folder in Dropbox2. That will remove the files from the shared folder, and ultimately, from Dropbox1.

still doesn't work.
is it connected to the face that dropbox1 is locked?
or because it between two business account?
