Delete, edit, and organize
Solve issues with deleting, editing, and organizing files and folders in your Dropbox account with support from the Dropbox Community.
I am trying to open an Excel file shared with me to be able to edit it. I choose the "open with google sheets" option, and I am taken to the following site with a message and option to either "sign in" or "create an account". Given I already have a google account, which is the same email I use for dropbox, I click on "sign in", but it does nothing. It just bring me back to the same page.
Could this be happening because my gmail account is not a G-Suite account? My Chrome browser has been set to accept cookies from the Dropbox Site.
"Sign in to continue You need a Google account to access Docs, Sheets, or Slides
Please make sure third-party cookies are enabled."
Same problem as above. EXACT SAME.
How do I get in touch with the support team directly.
I've tried everything. Re-logging into Dropbox. Re-logging into my gmail and google account. Turning off my browser. Adjusting cookies. Restarting my computer.
This problem started today (3/29), but I was able to edit files in google-sheets yesterday (3/28).
When I try to edit, it looks like it's in the process of loading, but then shoots me out to the error message:
Sign in to continue You need a Google account to access Docs, Sheets, or Slides
Please make sure third-party cookies are enabled. Learn more
Please HELP.
Sorry to see you're having this issue, @Ray1986.
Can you let me know if you've tried to do this through a private browsing (Incognito) window as well, or from a different browser, to see if that helps?
