37 TopicsiPhone 14 Outlook app doesn't show files for Dropbox
When trying to attach a Dropbox file using the Outlook mobile app, a screen says "No files found." I used to be able to create an email and then attach the Dropbox file using the Outlook app, but now this is not working. It's possible from the Dropbox app side, but not from Outlook. Any idea why this is happening? I've tried uninstalling/reinstalling Dropbox and removing/adding my Dropbox profile for Outlook, but this persists.25Views0likes2CommentsHow can I upgrade from Plus to Professional when I upgraded via the Android app?
Is there any way to upgrade my plan from Plus to Professional? I subscribed via Google Play and i'm unable to upgrade my plan to Professional, i don't have any possibilities in the app for that as it always takes me to Google Play where i can only decide that i'd like to continue that very subscribtion or not. If i go to dropbox.com then it writes that "Your plan and billing information are managed externally." and i can't even start a free trial and it also takes me to Play Store.. What can i do with that? I honestly think that it's quite ridicolous that upgrading an account is that difficult...173Views0likes2CommentsI can't upgrade via the Google Play store.
I just wasted 45 mins online with an agent. Tried to upgrade my account. After all that you can't upgrade your account via DROPBOX sales agent because I signed up via via Google play store. So went to google play store and I can't upgrade my account via playstore! Gone back and forth and back and forth with the agent to get nowhere. Asked if I could call someone for direction, have to go via email! Was told I need to upgrade to a business plan to make a call. Can't upgrade to a business plan for direct support because I pay for DROPBOX via playstore. Surely a big tech company can do better and make upgrading which is essentially volunteering to pay MORE for your service easier! ... No way to upgrade my service without spending more time on a service call and wasting more time. Very very irritating. Maybe you want to fix that!6.4KViews3likes29CommentsNew payment after changing Apple ID country is not recognized, so my account is downgraded to Basic
Hello all, I have a problem with my Dropbox Plus subscription purchased via Apple App store. I'm originally from Russia, my Dropbox Plus subscription was purchased using my Russian Apple ID. However I'm no longer live in Russia for 10 years, but I was still using my Russian Apple ID with my Russian bank card. Due to recent restrictions applied by VISA and Mastercard my Russian bank card as current payment method for Dropbox Plus subscription in Apple App store was denied/no longer valid. It was not possible for me to update my payment method and add any other country's bank card (bank country and Apple ID country should match) . So I decided to change my Apple ID country to my current residence country which is Spain. I successfully changed it and after that I paid 1 year subscription for Dropbox Plus in Apple App store using my Spanish bank card. The payment was done successfully, I have an email from Apple App store regarding that and I can see my Dropbox Plus valid yearly subscription in iTunes app. However today my Dropbox account became limited to Basic due to "ended subscription". Apple ID email and Dropbox account email are the same. Could you please help me? how can I resolve this issue? Many thanksSolved2.2KViews0likes11CommentsMy mobile subscription has expired, but Dropbox still won't let me re-subscribe via the website
Hello. I am trying to switch my subscription from Apple mobile payment to the Dropbox website. I have already followed the instructions provided by Dropbox and cancelled my subscription with Apple. According to Apple, my mobile subscription expired on August 7th (10 days ago). However, when I go to manage my subscription on Dropbox.com, I am told I have to manage my subscription through Apple and not given the option to subscribe via web. To make matters more frustrating, when I try to contact support by email through Dropbox's website, I'm given the same set of instructions I already followed and not allowed to submit a support request. I haven't attempted to use the live chat because it's not available on weekends, and if I'm going to have to wait until Monday to receive support anyway, I'd rather be able to submit a support request now while I'm thinking about it and handle it asynchronously than have to remember to do it on Monday. It's incredibly frustrating, and from looking at the forums, it seems like this is a problem multiple people have had that has required email support from Dropbox to resolve. I would primarily like help resolving this issue so I can subscribe to Dropbox via the website. However, I would also like Dropbox to consider updating the "Submit a Help Request" form to allow people having this issue to, ya know, use it. The fact that multiple people have posted on this forum about this exact same issue shows that the instructions provided are insufficient, and genuinely the most aggravating part of this entire thing has been being stonewalled by Dropbox's support request UI. Please either update the instructions with troubleshooting steps when your subscription has expired on mobile but you're still unable to change your subscription plan on the website, or, if this always requires Dropbox support to resolve, provide a way for people in this situation to indicate as such in the "Submit a Help Request" form that will allow them to, ya know, submit a help request.419Views0likes5CommentsA Plus subscription from iOS was downgraded according to Dropbox, but still active on iTunes
Hello, I’m desperate because I got an email from Dropbox informing me that my account was downgraded because they “received notice from Apple that they were unable to process payment for your plan”. However, Apple subscriptions shows the subscription active until May 2025 - and charged for. I have now limited support options as the account is considered “Basic”, even if I payed for the upgrade via Apple… Any suggestions? Thanks a lot, MiguelSolved876Views0likes8CommentsUnable to Upgrade it says I'm already paying for an account.
My plan suddenly downgraded to basic even though the card we have on file is working fine. No matter what device or browser I try, I am unable to upgrade back to the 2TB plan I have been on for years. When I try through the iOS app on my phone, I get a message that says I am unable to upgrade because I am paying for another Dropbox account with my Apple ID. This is not true, as they are connected. When I try on Safari through the website, I get a spinning icon and an error message on the payment page, plus a warning from my virus detection software that it is unsafe. I have the same issue on Chrome with my laptop. I am so frustrated, as now that I got downgraded, I can't even send a support email. I just want to upgrade, and I don't want to lose the thousands of files I have uploaded. What can I do?779Views0likes4CommentsI'm on Basic, even though I'm being billed by iTunes, and I can't upgrade via the website either
so for starters my subscription is done through itunes/the app store. i keep getting emails that they are renewing and making me pay for the subscription but when i go into the dropbox app, it doesn’t show that i have a subscription. in the contact support and billing through the dropbox website, I am able to enter my credit card info but unable to select the purchase button. i have a small red rectangle at the top that gives an error message and says to refresh browser or contact customer support. i’m not sure what else to do. and my latest payment made was june 4, 2024 but it doesn’t show up on my billing on the dropbox website.Solved968Views0likes5CommentsOn my Android, it asks me to upgrade for 11.99/month, but I don't want it.
Hi, On my smartphone with Dropbox App I always get the message to agree to an ABO for 11.99 EUR per month. I don't want it, but if I do not accept it I cant continue and I cant refuse. On my computer this problem does not exist. Bug in the APP? This problem exists since some weeks. Possible solution: de-install the APP + clear all data, reinstall again?Solved544Views0likes2Comments
