"Error 403" - Dropbox says I "don't belong here" and is not letting me download my own files!

I log in with email and password. My files load. I can click on them and view them, etc. But when I click "Download," I get an error message saying: "Error 403 - it appears you don't belong here ..." and it directs me to "sign in" or go to the 'help center" or the "home page." But I'm already signed in, I go to help center, home page, etc., and there does not appear to be a solution to this problem. Help!!!!???

This is happening to me. the only thing I can think of is over a year ago- I did not have a drop box. Someone guided me to get a file into their drop box. Now that I want to use drop box, i seem to have this issue/

I have the same problem downloading Damage Indicators from Minecraft Fourm

I am having the same problem. The file itself mysteriously disappeared from my dropbox file entirely. I am trying to piece together what happened. I can see the file the day I put it in dropbox, but when I click on it, I get the "you don't belong here, you should sign in" error message and I am already signed in.

My concern is more about file loss because it was a billing file...there's no trail to tell me how it got removed from dropbox. I checked deleted files, I checked events, nothing. The only trail I can find is when the file was originally put in dropbox.

Has anyone figured out why we are getting this message?

The person sending you the link has done so incorrectly as Rich said. They've sent you a link to their account as if they were logged in.

They need to follow www.dropbox.com/help/167 to send people links.

You are wrong, how can it be shared wrong? It says everyone can see or download file with the link but if someone opens it it asks for login in with dropbox.

With what, exactly? You haven't described the problem you're having.
