Another page which may also work and help is www.dropbox.com/events :)

The family plan includes 2TB, however, it can be shared: https://www.dropbox.com/family

Ce lien contient la configuration de téléchargement pour tous les systèmes d'exploitation pris en charge par Dropbox. Il correspond par défaut à celui utilisé par la personne. Il devra s'y rendre et obtenir celui qui lui convient.

Il leur suffit de télécharger et d'installer Dropbox depuis www.dropbox.com/downloading mais sur un ordinateur - une tablette ou un appareil mobile ne compte pas (il ne peut donc pas s'agir d'un magasin d'applications).

Have you logged tickets for it? What are those ticket numbers?

Easiest way is to do it via the Dropbox app on your phone - as long as the file is big enough. Click on the big blue + and follow prompts. Keep the app open while its doing it. 

Not for a shared folder, no. If you leave its just removed. If your wife is also seeing that can she rejoin the share OR can she find them somewhere else - often if a cleanup tool is used and hidden files deleted this can cause that. 

Can you rejoin at www.dropbox.com/share ?

Have you had a look at www.dropbox.com/support ? Or you can ask specific questions here, as well as having a search around :)

Apologies, I missed that - however, I believe its across the whole of the folder. So you should be able to change it at parent level

It isnt possible to set up options on Family Room: people have access to it and that's it I'm afraid Have a look at https://help.dropbox.com/share/share-files-family-plan#familyroom for info. 

Folders always stay shared unless they are actively unshared - but, it is possible that somebody who has shared it previously has actually left the share without unsharing it. Hence you get the menu options you have. If you were owner you'd be allowed to unshare it, however, as you arent you can only remove from Dropbox -…

Unfortunately the recovery window for a family account is still 30 days: https://help.dropbox.com/delete-restore/missing-reappearing-corrupted-files As the files were deleted longer than 30 days ago they are not recoverable I'm afraid. 

Have you tried a different browser? Clearing cache and cookies often also works That error is usually a localised one not one from Dropbox.

They just need to tap the X or click on the 'close (or exit)' texts to get past this screen. Then it will be downloadable.

Your bank should be doing that for you - especially if you say the authorisation has been removed. However, via Dropbox the ONLY way to do this is at www.dropbox.com/support while not logged in if you are not a paying member yourself. An incognito window may be better. 

Dropbox is syncing and indexing the files. If you dont want it to do that (note you may then end up with out of date files) you should just disable it from auto starting up.

Have you tried just turning off the 'Downloads' folder from the backups menu option? https://help.dropbox.com/organize/dropbox-backup-faq

You can try posting back here Monday office hours to see if one of the team picks it up 🙂 They may miss it now though as only work Mon through Fri

Is it a Team folder by any chance? If so the Team owner needs to remove you
