    The Dropbox API does require one of a certain set of Content-Type values for download calls like this. The official Dropbox.Api library (i.e., the official Dropbox API v2 .NET SDK) does automatically set a valid Content-Type, so you don't need to do that yourself when using it.

I'm afraid we can't offer help with those though, as they're made/maintained by a third party. You may be better served contacting the Xamarin maintainers or asking on a Xamarin forum.
