Hey,
When I try saving a DOCX or any other file on Android from the MS Office Apps (Excel, Powerpoint, Word) inside my dropbox (Android App as well), I always get :
can´t edit this file is read-only. To edit it save a copy of file.
(also saved "locally" and then into dropbox same again.....)
If I save it under any other disk space or cloud service no problems at all.
Lik one week ago i could save like that in Dropbox without problems, it is really anoying if that is not wirking any more.....
Actually in that case the whole tablet and dropbox is a bit useless for me....
The bug has to be somewhere inside the integration between the Apps on my Android device.
The MS Office Apps workes fine, and dropbox on every other device as well....
Any suggestions where the bug is?
or how I can solve this?
Are there similar cases?
Thank you for your time, and a quit nice day to everybody,
Best
