I upgraded my Dropbox to more memory. It picked up my work email address instead of my personal. How can I change my email address? When I tried it, it said my email address was taken. I need the new memory with the old email. I don't want it connected to my work email.

When you purchased the upgrade you were signed in to your work account, or you created a new account with your work email address. You're getting that message because there's already an account that's using your personal email, and two accounts can't use the same email address.
There's no way to move a subscription between accounts. The only way to resolve this would be to swap the email addresses on the accounts using a third email as a placeholder.
Oh boy thanks
