Hi there, DieBaum, how are you today?
Have you made sure that both Office 365 and your Dropbox app are up to date, and that you're using their latest versions on your mobile? We need to make sure that the error you're getting when trying to save your file to Dropbox, isn't linked to this.
Does that happen with all of your files, or a specific file type? Can you also send me a few screenshots of the steps you follow, and the error you receive on your end, in order for me to have a clear visual?
Keep me posted, and we'll take it from there!

Hey there!
Thank you for the quick answer. I have just checked the app store and it tells me all apps are up to date.
I have added some screenshots so you can see what is going on.

Hey DieBaum, sorry to jump in here and sorry to hear you're having issues with this.
May I ask if you're signed into your Microsoft account in the Office 365 app on your mobile device?
Also, is this happening with your own files or files that are shared with you from others?

This is also happening to me. My phone doesn't show updates I make on my computer and I keep getting 'read only' files that I can't edit when I try to update them on my phone manually

Then, as soon as I try to save a file it turns into 'read only' and I can no longer edit it

Hi Walter!
Yes, I'm signed in.
These are my files although du to IT-restrictions at work I frequently have to update them on different devices and transfer them by e-mail. Up until yesterday I had no problems caused by that.
