Solved

Link/Downloads temporarily disabled

This is the second time in a week I've been locked out of sharing content to my clients and I'm wondering why.  Any help would be greatly appreciated as my clients would like to access their files. 

Getting this message when trying to open a link on a separate browser.

Link temporarily disabled

This can happen when the link has been shared or downloaded too many times in a day.

And this message when I try to share the link:

Couldn’t complete share

We’ve interrupted your sharing activity. For details or to contact support.

    Unfortunately not. 

    There is no way to 'force' an upgrade through early.

    Update: After reading more on the forum it appears I may be bandwidth limited due to being on a trail for Dropbox Essentials. It don't see a way to fully upgrade until the trail as run its course. Any way around this?
