Sorry to hear about this, @"TimReid". Has the migration finished on your computer? If you hover over the Dropbox icon in your menu bar, what's the sync status and version of the app? And what's your computer's OS version?

Hey @"debbru"! Can you first let us know what you'd like to do? Do you want to share your files with edit permission, so that the people accessing them can also edit/delete them? Or do you want to give them view-only permission? With view-only, they'll only be able to view the files and download them, but not edit/delete…

That's strange indeed, @"James b124". Can you send us a screenshot of how the page appears for you? Just make sure to hide your personal info, like your last name and email address.

Hey @"rdrman08"! I just sent you an email, so we'll continue working on this there.

Hey @"dockap", if backup is off for your computer, and you still have the Dropbox app installed, you should be able to reset your desktop folders back to their original locations, by following these steps: 1) Click the Dropbox icon in your menu bar. 2) Click your profile picture or initials. 3) Click 'Preferences'. 4)…

Hey @"nunoggomes", thanks for joining our Community. I'm afraid that upgrading your account retroactively won't help you restore files that were deleted a long time ago. I moved your post to this relevant thread, so you can take a look at the other replies for more info.

Hey @"IanSE", are you getting the same behavior on other browsers or private browsing/incognito windows as well?

Hey @"Sandman77", thanks for reaching out to us. Any folder that's been shared with another Dropbox user via email invitation should have the "two people" icon on it. If you don't see this icon on a folder that's shared, please make sure that the folder you're looking at is the one that's actually shared. Meaning, it could…

Hey @"Siaska", thanks for posting to the Dropbox Community. At the moment, when it comes to Dropbox Business teams, there is a setting that helps prevent members from permanently deleting files and folders. For simple deletions, there's no setting you can choose, if the members need to have edit access to the folders.…

Hey @"Myles1", welcome to our Community! Can you please clarify what you're trying to do, when you get this message? Are you trying to update your billing info? And if so, is it possible that you're signed in to a free account and not your paid one? Check here to see your plan. Let me know what you find.

Hey @"lxk", thanks for posting today. The new release of Dropbox Paper is still slowly being rolled out, so it's not yet available to everyone. You can read more about it here. Did you receive some kind of email saying that it's available for you? Let me know.

Not a problem, @"Roscoe1"! I'm glad to see it's working now and of course, if you do come across any other issues, please let us know. Have a wonderful day!

Hey @"rellis", sorry to hear about this. Is it possible to regain access to your email address? Without access to the email, there's really no way of verifying your account ownership, to help you regain access to the account. You can read more about this here.

Hey @"rjkg", thanks for reaching out to us. Can you send us a screenshot of the error message this member is receiving? Is this an API app that you've created? Also, what's the Dropbox version and the OS version of this person's computer? Let me know and we'll go from there.

Just to confirm I understand the situation fully, can you please guide me through the steps you're following that get you to the point where you can only see your personal folder?

Thanks for getting back to me, Amy. I'm sure you have not been hacked, however, you need to keep in mind certain things when it comes to sharing links. You can see more info about this here. Are any of the reasons for a ban possibly true for this specific folder?

Hey @"Helenfpm" and thanks for the additional info and ticket number. I've raised the priority of the case on my end, so an agent from our team will be assisting you the soonest possible. Let me know if you need anything else.

Hey @"c4l1n", thanks for your reply. Since it's been a while since the last time you were having this issue, can you please confirm that you have since updated your Dropbox app to the latest version (338.2.2)? 

Hey @"amarchi73", thanks for joining us here on our Community! Can you please give me some more info as to what kind of plan you're on? Are you a member of a Dropbox Business team? The shared link in question, was it created by you or a different account? Does it work outside of WordPress? Keep me posted.

Thanks for the update, Cat. Does the file that's giving you the error about the incompatible characters still appear in your local Dropbox folder? Also, what's the version of the app, when you hover over the Dropbox icon?

Hey @"amysap", sorry to jump in here. Are you still having this issue? And are you having this issue when sharing links to any kind of file? Or just these ones you use for your choir?

Hey @"Kateberryyt", can you let us know how you usually share your Dropbox links with Patreon? 

Hey @"T-horn", have you tried uninstalling and reinstalling the Dropbox app, to see if that helps?

Hey @"jpark", was the second payment made through Apple as well? Or was it a credit card charge?

Hey @"jshaddad", sorry to hear about this. Can you clarify what you mean when you say that you lost your files after the latest update? Do you have any devices still connected to that account, perhaps?

Sorry to see you're having issues with the Dropbox Capture app, @"Roscoe1". Have you tried any troubleshooting steps, like restarting your computer, uninstalling and reinstalling the Capture app, etc. to see if they help?

Hey @"Scott B.26", thanks for your post. I'm afraid that since we don't really have an official integration with the specific app, there's not much we can do on our end, but I'll happily help you try to figure this out. If you haven't already, perhaps you can try to disconnect Dropbox from that app and then to reconnect…

Hey @"emilia123456", sorry to hear about that! Have you tried the steps provided by Nancy above, in order to submit a help request to our support team about this?

Hey @"Tam-E", sorry to jump in here. I've removed your link to stop it from causing excessive traffic for your account. From what I could see though, you had screenshots of both your files explorer Dropbox (our desktop client) and also Dropbox Lite (for S mode). Which one is the main app you're using to access your files?

Thanks @"Roulan"! Can you try reinstalling the Dropbox app on the laptop (without uninstalling it), to see if that helps? You can use this link to reinstall it.
