I accidentally joined my daughter's team account and I can't manage my own.

My daughter recently linked her Dropbox project to my account.

Now unfortunately it's full and I can't even upload to my own account.

How do I separate my account from hers in order to upload files to my own account?

  • I figured it out. It was me who actually had to leave her team in order to separate my account from hers.  This should have been a lot easier to figure out.  Her team account basically overrode my account and that shouldn't happen.
