Hi @"Makcyee" Do you still see them at www.dropbox.com/home ? If so you should be able to download from the website, or, once upgraded again it will commence to sync back to linked devices. 

If you delete a folder and replace it then the link option should still show at www.dropbox.com/links. You should be able to still delete it. However, did you go back to support and give them the link and explain all of this to them?

Yes it does count towards your quota - why wouldn't it? If it uses space on the servers it uses space (which costs money). Did you read the associated help articles when setting this up? https://help.dropbox.com/organize/team-folder-manager#How-to-archive-a-team-folder

I have been around here since the software was in 1.x version and never ever seen this happen. I agree with @"Nancy" that the link is either still active on the account but with a different name/title…

If you add a file to the phone does it appear at www.dropbox.com/home ?

@"Michael Zhu" wrote:Yes, I sent a separate email inquiry after i posted that message. Thanks. They dont work weekends but will get back to you next week 🙂

@"Michael Zhu" wrote:I too am experiencing the same issue. Can you help resolve this? Thanks. Have you tried contacting support via www.dropbox.com/support ?

Thats because its not been shared as a link 🙂 You've created a shared folder that gives everybody read/write access to the whole thing. So when they add to their Dropbox if they delete/change anything it also changes on yours. You need to go to that folder and unshare it. You may be able to do it…

All links from your account show on that page. Rearranging files doesn't change anything - they still work. If it isn't showing on links have you checked the other options (Files and Recents etc.)? https://www.dropbox.com/share/recents

You can do it at https://www.dropbox.com/share/links

Does www.dropbox.com/support show any updates on your ticket @"eozzy" ?

If its your first ban it will automatically clear within 24 hours or so. However, each one does take longer. Dropbox limits users bandwidth on links to 20/gb a day across every link for free users, so, if you used over that (maybe the 4 watched more than once etc.) that will result in a ban.

Somebody else has just posted a full screen print of the website and it seems to show that if you scroll down the page slightly it has the usual account toggle:

What exactly is the error?

You will need to speak to the developer as it sounds like they need to update the app - there are also changes coming up later this year which, if not updated, could cause the app to stop working completely. 

Unfortunately as the messages on screen say on a mobile device you have to have the Dropbox app to view it. You can view on a computer without the app, but, on mobiles you need Dropbox.

What happens if you click on 'Apri File' at the bottom? Do you have Dropbox installed on your device?

Thats really weird as my screen is totally different: Have you tried an incognito window? Or clearing cookies and cache etc.?

What is the URL on that page @"Krijo" ?

Nobody here can I'm afraid - you have to do it via wherever you set it up. If that was on a mobile you probably need to go to that app store (Google Play or the App Store for example).

You can only link 2 accounts together - one as a paid business account and then one more. So if you have more than that you cannot…

Hi @"Krijo" Where are you seeing this? The website or a computer or similar? If its the website just log on to the account with the black avatar and log on there.

So, that means Dropbox isnt running or working. How long has it said 'starting' ? Have you tried a reboot of the machine? And then if that doesn't help reinstalling it from www.dropbox.com/downloading 

Dropbox should have an icon at the top on the status bar near the clock. When you hover over it it should say what the version is and something like 'up to date'. Dropbox can only run if it appears there. Go to the applications folder and open Dropbox again to make sure its running.

Thank you 🙂 But, again, that doesnt look like Dropbox is running. Did you check that? What does the Dropbox icon at the top say if you mouse over it? If its NOT there have you started it from the Apps folder?

Yes of course you can attach them here - but you need to do it via the computer and not phone 🙂 It does very much sound like you don't have Dropbox running on the computer, however. 

When you say in the app is this the Dropbox app? It doesn't sync things like Photos on the iPhone - it only does a one way sync of what you put in the app. If you then edit a photo on the phone it wont update on Dropbox. So if you DID edit / delete or add in the app and its not sync'd to the computer its one two things -…

Hi @"Cecilia W" Have you made sure you are using the email address and account on both? If you add a photo on your phone does it appear on your computer?

Can you post a screenshot and exactly what you are trying to do?
