Trouble opening a PP in Dropbox.

Hi. I use Dropbox for work and have a corporate account through Microsoft. When I attempt to open a PP to edit it I only have the option to preview. The option to "open with PP online' is no longer there. I have disconnected the Microsoft app and reinstalled it but it has not worked. An ideas?

    Hi Jkokoski, let's jump right into this! 

     

    Are you having this issue on all your PowerPoint files or just a specific one? When did this start happening? 

     

    Can you please let me know if you get any different results after clearing your browser's cache and on other browsers?

     

    Keep me posted!

    Unfortunately yes I cleared all cache and cookies and tried a different server. I am on a Mac as well. It was working earlier this week but now it is not. I also tried it on two different computers.

        Yes I do. I have dropbox for business and have all license through them as well. It was working before and now only Power Point is the problem.
