Hi Jay,
thanks for your answer adn help, but it doesn't work!
I use firefox and tried safari and chrome. Even incognito it always say: please change the error in the field and try again.
Why can't dropbox upgrade for me??? It is so frustrating that there is no answer from dropbox, no help nothing.... I do need it for work, I really do.

Thanks Jay!
Best, Philip
