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.
Team admin
297 Topics"This account has been marked as inactive. Contact the team admin" error, but I am the admin
I was using my account and then after coming back to my account an hour later the log in now fails and saidsThis account has been marked as inactive. Contact the team admin, which is my account. No explanation or way to solve this has been given, it cant be due to inactivity because I was just using it.221Views0likes3CommentsHow can I rotate users with a fixed number of licenses in a business plan?
We are small organisation where three people from the management should share documents. We decided to purchase Dropbox Business with 3 licenses. One person created the Dropbox account, and automatically became ADMIN. His email become the address used by Dropbox to communicate the issues affecting the whole team. Other people were invited by admin via invitation process. Now - in this organisation, management regularly rotate - one or more people leave the management, other people enter management. At any given time, there are at most 3 people in the management. What is the correct procedure to manage Dropbox accounts in this scenario? For example - when Admin person is replaced in the management, how to transfer ADMIN role to differrent user? There are two scenario variants: a) tranfer ADMIN role to already existing user b) transfer ADMIN role to newly added user - this, however, temporarily increases the number of users by 1 🙂 How to solve this?62Views0likes5CommentsWe can't change the ownership of a folder on our Dropbox team.
Hi, I'm an administrator for our Dropbox Team. One of our employees would like to transfer ownership of a folder to another employee. He tried, and then I tried at the admin level, and followed the Help Center instructions for changing ownership. When we open the drop -down menu showing who has access to the folder, we only see "can edit" and "can view" as options, not "make owner" as suggested in the instructions. Thank you for any help!3.7KViews0likes9CommentsDropbox admin account was deleted due to locked state
Hello, Our company’s admin Dropbox account was deleted due to locked state. However, other team members who had access to files shared from this admin account can still view them. I need to delete some of these files, but since the owner account (admin) was deleted, I no longer have control over them. When I logged back into the admin account, a new profile was created, and all previous files were missing. Is there a way to assign admin rights to one of the existing members with access to these files, so they can control and manage them as an admin? Thankyou in advance Bandana145Views0likes1CommentKein verschieben der Hauptordner mehr möglich
Hallo liebe Community, ich habe Dropbox Busines und wollte in meiner Dropbox aufräumen. Dazu wollte ich alte Ordner verschieben. Der Button zum Verschieben ist nicht mehr sichtbar. Die Unterordner kann ich verschieben. Ich habe nun einen Test Ordner erstellt. Auch den kann ich nicht verschieben. Ich bin Admin. Hat einer eine Idee warum das auf einmal nicht mehr geht? LG Kirsten140Views0likes2CommentsMitgliederverwaltung
Wir haben eine Reihe von Externen Personen Zugriff auf ausgewählte Ordner in unserer Dropbox gegeben. Ich habe nun den Zugriff der Personen (Verwaltungskonsole / Mitglieder) entfernt. Dennoch bleiben diese Personen in der Übersicht Externe Personen integriert. Hier ist z.B. angegeben, auf wieviele Ordner die Personen Zugriff, wenn ich die Übersicht dazu aufrufe, erhalte ich jedoch den Hinweis, dass kein Zugriff besteht. Wie kann ich die Personen komplett aus der Liste entfernen? Danke für Hinweise. Sabine50Views0likes1CommentDropbox external collaborators report is missing some data
Hi Team We have the external collaborators report from DropBox which gives half the data. 1st half of the data - It gives the email addresses of external collaborators 2nd half of the data - It gives the Display name of the External collaborators and the Domain name But this data isnt useful. Can you fix this from backend ? Thanks Shankar173Views0likes2CommentsI need assistance with accessing and managing my team account
Hi! I am trying to get my music organization/band to use dropbox more efficiently & effectively. I have an enterprise plan but it doesn't seem like there is anywhere in the user interface for me to create or manage teams. I wanted to add phone support so I could call dropbox but i don't even see that option in my Settings console. How can i talk to someone who can help me figure this out? I'm talking to chatGPT but none of the directions i'm getting are accurately reflected in my user interface options. I have had a personal account for a long time that has 5TB of storage, and then recently this year i upgraded to a TEAMs account through Rekordbox (DJ software) which gives me and additional 10.5TB of storage, and i attempted to merge the accounts. It seems tho, that my admin options are only reflecting my personal account and not my Teams/Enterprise account. I'm running in circles on the website and need assistance. Thank you in advance for any help or direction.571Views0likes8Comments
