How can I pause syncing for my team account, but not the personal one?

How can I pause syncing for my team account, but not the personal one?

I have added a Dropbox Teams account (Business) to the Dropbox app on my computer in addition to my personal account (Essentials). How can I temporarily disable syncing for the Teams account *without* disabling it for my personal one?

Hi,

You may temporarily disable syncing for your Dropbox Teams account while keeping your personal account active. Here’s how:

  1. Open Dropbox Preferences:

    • Click on the Dropbox icon in your system tray or menu bar.
    • Click on your profile picture or initials.
    • Select Preferences.
  2. Select the Account:

    • Go to the Accounts tab.
    • Select your Teams account.
  3. Pause Syncing:

    • Click Pause syncing for your Teams account.

This will pause syncing for your Teams account while keeping your personal account active.

Hope this helps.
