You need to link the accounts first via https://help.dropbox.com/account-access/link-unlink-two-accounts

Hey @joe lotz, thanks for reaching out to us.

 

The article that Mark linked for you, includes the steps on linking your second account on the Dropbox desktop app, so that it will also be added to your Finder.

 

Are you having any issues with the steps?

Hi, as I said above, the accounts are linked already, its working on other computers.

On this on I dont know to add the second one. Because your app is only opening the existing folder. I need to do that via icloud, if its not working.

Do you mean that the Dropbox icon in your menu bar, where you can access the Dropbox application preferences, to add the second account, is gone, Joe?
