Hey HowieG, sorry to hear you're having issues with this,.

 

Could you please let me know the exact steps you take to upload your files to Dropbox and if you're getting any errors along the way, send us a screenshot so that we can have a look too?

 

Any additional information you can share is more than welcome!

    hi walter thanks for taking the time to reply.  I am trying to save my work to dropbox so I'm opening word and powerpoint documents and then when I try and save them I only get the option of uploading to onedrive.  I have gone online to try and link my dropbox but I cannot find any of the links that are mentioned in the instructions.

      Hi HowieG, sorry to jump in there! 

       

      Just to clarify: do you use the website, in order to do that? Do you have our desktop app installed locally?
