2 years agoHey ehazbiu1, did you have the chance to look through the steps both me, and Rich provided as to how you can go on about merging content between your accounts?
Do you have any questions?

@Megan, not yet because i have another question. Can i open this shared folder on the account which has a subscription (not the preferred email/account) and more free space, than move the files from the other (preferred account) to this folder? Than empty this account and delete it (preferred account) to free the email and replace this email in the not preferred account, without loosing the subscription and accessibility?? Sorry for the game of words.. but i do not have a phone number to call you guys and explain better.
Thank you

Hi ehazbiu, is the shared folder you're talking about in the Basic, or Plus Dropbox account?
Can you also clarify, where your files are at the moment?

Hey ehazbiu1, if the shared folder is in your Plus plan, and you wish to move it to the Basic one, you'd need to make sure there's enough space to host the folder there.
If on the other hand, you wish to move content from your Basic account, into the Plus one, that should also be great considering you have more free space there.
