Solved. Thank you for the direction on this being a Desktop View issue Здравко
It was in "Desktop Site" mode per photo, but was showing the mobile menu, with no Edit. Toggling it off an on again did not refresh the page as i would have expected when switching mobile/desktop. Restarted the tablet, restarted Firefox.

I will now go learn how to force a Desktop site for dropbox.com

I need to test this some more. Please hold.
