Hey Lee Firth, thanks for bringing this to our attention.
Can you try again, using a different browser or a private browsing window and let me know if the issue persists?
Thanks in advance!

I have created a Loom video which details what is happening and the steps to take to duplicate the error.

Can you go to your Dropbox account by clicking your Avatar (person icon or name initials ) on the top right corner of your account screen and then click on Settings. Under settings, choose Apps , do you see your Google account linked or connected with Dropbox? Is it showing the same Google address? They must have the same address. If you are getting that error message that you must connect it to the same google is either you already have connected it to google before (and that’s by checking your connected apps) or you are really using different email addresses. Hope this helps .
