You might see that the Dropbox Community team have been busy working on some major updates to the Community itself! So, here is some info on what’s changed, what’s staying the same and what you can expect from the Dropbox Community overall.
Multiple Accounts
6 TopicsSwitching between two accounts
I have both a personal and an account I use for business (neither is a DropBox "Business" account). I can have both open in my Firefox browser on my Mac by using containers. But the menu icon shows only one account at a time (currently my personal although I could probably get it to show the other). In OneDrive, which as a long-time DB user I hate to use, I can have two menu bar icons for two separate accounts so I can easily pick the account I want. Is there a way to simplify the Dropbox interface to more easily allow access to both accounts from the menu bar icon?

Help! I've moved countries and currencies and the only way I could retain a Dropbox account is to set up a new account. I now need to transfer all folders and files to my new account. I have over 700GB. I am paying for 2TB in both accounts. When I follow these guidelines:https://help.dropbox.com/organize/move-files-between-accountsthere is a limit of 50GB in a shared folder! Is there a smart way of transferring to my new account? Surely this is something Dropbox could do?! Just point my new email at my current folder!!! Or do I have to aside a day or two to do this?! The transfer time is a nightmare and I am on fibre...123Views0likes1CommentIs there a way to choose which account a folder shared with me will go to?
I have two accounts, a business account owned by someone else, and a personal account owned by me. When I have a client who shares a Dropbox folder with me, it ALWAYS goes into the business account. I asked them to resend the share link to the email address associated with my personal account, and it still went to the business account. That's NOT ok. It's NOT business, and that account is shared with others who shouldn't see this. I searched and found there's a way to move it between accounts, but the instructions aren't complete. It says I have to create a shared folder in the account I want it to be in and "invite the other account to share the folder" HOW do you do that? I tried the name of the account, my email, all kinds of things but none of them resulted in inviting my business account to share the folder in my personal account. WTF? This would be so simple if it just asked you which account to add the new folder to813Views0likes4CommentsIs it possible to see team files in dropbox folder on PC?
Hi, I have a personal (basic) Dropbox account, and am also part of a Dropbox team, via two separate accounts (separate email addresses). When I click on the Dropbox icon on my PC I see my personal files, but not the team files. Is it possible to 'add' the team files to the folder for easy access? And anyway, how do I find the team files? When I go to the website (Dropbox.com) I similarly only see the personal files.Solved560Views0likes2CommentsHow to add 2nd dropbox account to File Explorer
