Install
4 TopicsMy email was hacked, can I install the desktop app without a password?
Hi My email account has been compromised and I'm concerned my associated Dropbox may have also been accessed. I'm fairly confident the hacker only had access to my emails and not all my passwords. The password for my Dropbox account hasn't been changed so it hasn't been reset using the compromised email account. However, now that I have regained access to my email account I notice that around the time of the email compromise, I received an email that said "You're invited to download the Dropbox desktop app" and a few days later "Click below to see how easy it is to complete your Dropbox setup: you'll be able to access your files from anywhere." My question is, is it possible to get the Dropbox install to send an email with a Login Link that doesn't require the password. These are often referred to asMagic Links and can be used to speed up the install process. My fear is that even though they didn't have my password and it hasn't been reset they may still have accessed my dropbox files. P.S. I have checked the linked devices, followed the Dropbox instructions for being hacked and will be treating this as though I have lost everything.386Views0likes1CommentTrying To Install Dropbox
When I try to log in to install dropbox on a new laptop, a window pops up that says "Enter Security Code" and under that it says "Your security code will be generated by your authenticator app." and under that there is a box to type in a Security Code. I have no idea what any of this means.494Views0likes3CommentsHow to change my app data on new MacBook pro
Please help me get the Dropbox app on my new MacBook Pro. I have tried downloading the installer a dozen times with the same error message each time. The Dropbox app data user path is wrong (from my old iMac), and I don't know how to change it to my new computer user name in the app.Solved1.3KViews0likes4Comments
