Unable to open Excel files on Android Dropbox mobile app - Office login loop
Hi, I have a free dropbox account and have used it for years to store a few basic excel spreadsheets that I use daily. I have a paid Microsoft 365 account that I use on my android phone and lenovo laptop. For some reason the last few days, I am unable to open my dropbox excel spreadsheets on my phone. When I try to open the spreadsheet I get a log in page saying "Log in or sign up to Dropbox to link with Microsoft Office Integration". I log in using my dropbox user and pw and it just sends me to my onedrive. I have tried deleting the dropbox and 365 apps on my phone and re installing and logging in. I have tried to open the dropbox files by going into excel first and then trying to open the dropbox spreadsheet. Just always sends me to the log in page. It all works fine on my laptop, and after saving, my dropbox android app shows the newly updated spreadsheet. Dont know what has happened. Please help.
How can I put a copy of an Office 365 document into Dropbox?
I am new to Office 365, and I have always used Save As (and selected Dropbox as the location) to (1) put a COPY of a Word or Excel document into Dropbox, keeping the original of the document where I created it. And I used Save As to (2) update when the document has been edited. It doesn’t seem to work that way in Office 365. Where can I find step-by-step directions for doing both of those things?
How to close a Word document, it seems I don't have the option?
The close link in the Word for Web application does not work. I cannot see any settings to resolve this issue. I have cleared cache and cookies and tried again but it still does not work. I have tried using both Chrome and Microsoft Edge on a PC and Safari on a Mac. How do I resolve this? We are training some newbies on edit documents and need to let them know how to properly close the file. I have done the Save As/Rename, and while that works, it does not close the tab for the document and we end up with another tab. Thanks
Editing an Excel file on my iPhone. Is this possible?
Hi, I hope I am asking this question in the right category. If not I am sorry. But my problem is that I have generated an Excel file on my desktop and copied and pasted into my Dropbox. When I open this file in Dropbox on my iPhone I can view, cut and copy the file but I cannot edit it. I have the Excel app installed on my phone, but even using the app the function to edit is not there. Does anybody out there know a solution to this as I am led to believe I should be able to edit this kind of file
