    Thanks for clarifying that for us craigpalmer 

     

    In that case, you can simply move all of your content from the older account in one folder and share the folder with your new account.

     

    Let us know if you have any other questions!

Hi craigpalmer, thanks for bringing this to our attention.

 

Are you able to access the old Dropbox account and login normally?

 

This will help me to assist further!
