You might see that the Dropbox Community team have been busy working on some major updates to the Community itself! So, here is some info on what’s changed, what’s staying the same and what you can expect from the Dropbox Community overall.
Please allow pairing of more than two accounts. As a contractor, I am a member of a company's business account, a team member of another company, and have my personal account. It is frustrating to on...
LOL @ "Status changed to: Not for right now"
YOU mean NEVER before you go under!
OneDrive does this, it cant be that hard if Microsoft manage it right. Mahahaha
OK now some real help for those stuck trying to work out what to do.
Issue : Dropbox only lets you match 1 biz and 1 personal account PER WINDOWS USER
Resolve : use more than one WINDOWS USER
#1 create a common folder and permission it with EVERYONE access (see windows help for how to permission) example is C:\ALLDropbox
#2 Create user subfolder that lets use ID what Windows User these folders are for.
example C:\ALLDropbox\jstolder
#3 using the Dropbox app move the Dropbox parent folder to C:\ALLDropbox\jstolder
#4 create a new windows user and login to it lets call this JSTheSecond
#5 sign up to Dropbox make the Dropbox parent folder to C:\ALLDropbox\jstolder2 (you might need to make the folder)
#6 set the Dropbox app of JSTheSecond to NOT START on startup
#7 return to the first user, and create a shortcut in the startup folder
that runs
C:\Windows\System32>runas.exe /savecred /user:JSTheSecond C:\Program Files (x86)\Dropbox\Client\Dropbox.exe
That's it besides the first time you run the shortcut you have to type in the password for the JSTheSecond windows user account, the /savecred above then saves it and your done.
Dropbox of the first account will load as normal, and the dropbox of the second windows account will load inside the first windows account. two dropbox icons two companies covered
Repeat for 3, 4, 5 etc, I at one time had 4.
