    Hey Fabio L., sorry to hear that.

     

    If you rebooted your computer and this persists, could you send us a screenshot so that we can have a visual too?

Hey there, Michael C.15, let's jump right into this! 

 

Based on the number you mentioned, 179.4.4985, it seems you're using the stable version of our desktop app, after your upgrade to the new MacOS for File Provider. 

 

Could you send me a screenshot of the word "Beta", and where exactly do you locate it, in order for me to have visual too? If you have any ticket numbers, feel free to also send them to me here. 

 

Keep me posted!

After unlinking my account after a fresh Dropbox install (2nd level support asked be to do this to trouble shoot another problem)...

1. I can't sign into the Mac app. Error: There was a problem completing this request.

2. Can't sign into the website—sometimes yes sometimes no. I usually get the error: Two-step verification text message couldn't be sent. <a href="/help/364">Help</a>)
3. Phone number on website settings for SMS verifications is correct. 
4. When I am able to sign into the website, I do get the 2 step SMS. 

Unlinked another Mac on my account and I get the exact same errors. 

Anyone else having problems?

    Hi Michael C.15, in regards to the app, would you mind sharing your ticket number reference please? 

     

    Have you managed to access the desktop app, after the first error you mentioned above? What about accessing your account online, using a different browser? 

     

    Are you able to do this, or do you still get the 2FA error?

      Hi. One ticket is https://www.dropbox.com/support/ticket/22504150

      It seems like turning off two step verification fixed most or all of these login problems. I can’t believe it’s taken five hours of support chat for me to figure this out on my own. I updated that ticket with a question. Thank you.

        Hi everyone,

         

        To clarify, this was a bug that incorrectly displayed the Beta tag to stable users on FP, which we've already resolved. Our following stable release should include the fix. Stay tuned!

         

        Thanks,

        Sam
