Why do I need a license to edit Word and Excel files now?
So this just happened today. I can't create new Word or Excel files, nor can I edit existing ones. There is now a paywall that says I need a commercial Office 365 version.
Um what?

Also, this only happens while working on my Macbook.
When I use the DB app on my iPhone, all files work as they should! It is a loophole but it isnt workflow friendly and hardly useable when using this service all day, every day.....

Dropbox StaffSorry to hear about this THEJYESHARK.
I just moved your post under this thread as your inquiry seems to be related.
Could you clarify what type of licence you're using for your Office 365 integration?
Keep in mind that the licence requirement is out of our remit. The integration is in place to allow users to navigate between the two apps easily, but the access to files in Office online is dictated by the Microsoft account being used, not the Dropbox account.
That being said, you can check what licence you use by following instructions I found on the MS website here:

If you have one of the below licences and are still experiencing the problem, please send me a screenshot of what licence you have and I'll have a further look into this:
- Office 365 Business
- Office 365 Business Premium
- Office 365 Pro Plus
- Office 365 E3
- Office 365 E4
- Office 365 E5
Thanks in advance!
