Created a new Dropbox account with the same email as my old one
Was adding new device but was not in the correct google account (have several). It actually let me set up a second Dropbox account using the same email and password as the old account.
I am unable to connect to my old file structure and my previous plan due to this. And I need help fixing that.

It sounds like you were previously signing in with an email address and password, but this time you signed in with Google (the Continue with Google button), and that in doing so, it signed you in to a new, empty account. Is that correct?
