You might see that the Dropbox Community team have been busy working on some major updates to the Community itself! So, here is some info on what’s changed, what’s staying the same and what you can expect from the Dropbox Community overall.
Switching between two accounts
I have both a personal and an account I use for business (neither is a DropBox "Business" account). I can have both open in my Firefox browser on my Mac by using containers. But the menu icon shows only one account at a time (currently my personal although I could probably get it to show the other). In OneDrive, which as a long-time DB user I hate to use, I can have two menu bar icons for two separate accounts so I can easily pick the account I want. Is there a way to simplify the Dropbox interface to more easily allow access to both accounts from the menu bar icon? ThanksI need to identify the Dropbox instance
I have a need to identify the Dropbox instance. Is there a unique way to identify that, something similar to org id in salesforce. company has a dropbox instance and it also has different subsidaries which have their own dropbox instance. Need to be able to identify 1 dropbox instance from the other. what field should I use to distinguish the same?I don't have the code to access my second Dropbox account and my files are nowhere to be found.
I tried to log in today and there are no files. I think I have 2 accounts and I was paying 11.99 a month for the service now I don'tsee a recent charge. There might have been a billing issue, (or terms changed) but I can no longer access the address to get a code to login or see if there is billing issue. There were thousands of images (My complete portfolio) My phone number is the same. I hope my life wasn't deleated. Is there a way contact someone in billing/accounts to get access and pay an outstandang bill? Sinking feeling all is lost.
Can't Look Up a PayPal transaction to see which account I'm getting charged for
I cancelled both of my dropbox plans on two separate accounts several months ago. I am still getting a monthly charge, and I'm not sure where this charge is coming from. I can't use the billing lookup tool because I paid through paypal. The phone numbers on my paypal statement and my credit card statement for dropbox don't work. A help article directed me to request help with billing through the website, but I can't find anything about how to do that once I log in. Could I please hear back from a dropbox representative? I need help using my paypal information to 1) figure out what account is causing this expense and 2) figure out what I need to do to end the recurring subscription cost. It has been several months now that I've been charged for a dropbox account that I'm not using and tried to cancel, and I can't figure out how to contact the company to do so.Getting an error that email is taken when trying to change my email in the account settings
I was recently invited to join the team and, upon opening the provided link, I was prompted to create a new account due to having two accounts. I misunderstood the instructions and thought my existing files would migrate to this new account. I used an email address that I can no longer access for the new account, and I would like to revert to my old email address. When I attempted to change my email in the account settings, I received a message stating that the email is already taken. Could you please assist me in transferring my files back to my original email address and resolving this issue? Thank you for your help!
My devices are linked to two different email addresses
When I now go to dropbox on my PHONE, it appears to be linked to ONE of my prior (but still active) email addresses. When I go to dropbox on my COMPUTER, it appears to be linked ANOTHER one of my email addresses. I got a new phone update several years ago and wanted to start using dropbox again. When I went to open dropbox (probably on my computer), it appeared I was setting up a NEW dropbox account. However, I could see older pictures I had saved in dropbox previously. I'm not sure what happened but, this is the confusing part. When I go to dropbox on my computer, in the upper right hand corner, the second of my email addresses is shown. When I go to dropbox on my phone, the first of my email addresses is shown. ***My fear now is that if I sign out of one or both accounts, I will be locked out of BOTH dropbox accounts! Can you see accounts for both yahoo.com and gmail.com? Have they been combined? Were all of my previous account's photos carried over when you set up my newer account? It appears most were, but I am missing some that I thought I had uploaded to dropbox with the prior email address. Thank you.
