I think i found a solution to the problem by accident today!

- Excellent. Thank you for sharing that.
- Oh, I finally found a (the?) solution! Thanks for sharing.
- You're a life saver. Because it's not only dropbox. I had several apps "prevented" from uploading, since they have defaulted to a folder too big to open. And your simple solution works for all
Worked for me too. I had queried DB support and the tech person didn't know that, just told me the app doesn't support 3d party apps.
Thank you, this is a major piece of functionality of the app!
I think the reason why many people are having trouble with this is that the back button only works the second time.
So after a period of not using the Dropbox app, the sequence of actions is:
- Go to the app that you want to share from, for example the Gallery, and select the items you want to share.
- Click Share -> Add to Dropbox
- Find yourself in the last used subfolder
- Press the Android Back button
- This will take you back to the Gallery
- Click Share -> Add to Dropbox a second time
- Find yourself in the last used subfolder again
- Press the Android Back button again
- This time it will go to the parent folder
