How to change my allowed devices for my account?

Walt347

The desktop computer I used to set up my Dropbox account became corrupted, and I have replaced it with a new laptop. When I originally set up Dropbox on my old desktop, I added 2 other devises to have access to my files; My work laptop and my iPhone.

Now that I have replaced my desktop PC with the new Laptop, how do I change my account to make my new laptop my controlling devise and still have my work laptop and iPhone have access to my files. I know I am limited to just 3 devises.

Thanks Mark! done. Now how do I add my new Laptop to be a Dropbox allowed devise, replacing my old desktop that I just removed?

Hi @Walt347, happy Monday!

All you'd have to do would be to download & install the app on the needed device, and that should do the trick.
