RE: dropbox help please
There should be a Public folder in your DropBox folder. If you copy and paste the files you want to share into there you should, I believe, be able to pull up a context menu with share link on it., Shift vo M on the file to pull up the context menu. I mostly get links off my windows machines but I think this works on the Mac as well. As I say do not bother with the DropBox app itself. If necessary go to www.dropbox.com to do any administration.

Re: dropbox help please
Another thing you can do is create an alias on the desktop for drop box. What I did was go to the folder that Chris mentioned and in the menus create an alias and move that to the desktop.

Re: dropbox help please
I still can't open the dropbox I did everything you said and it won't open. I listened to a podcast which told me to go into system prefs and turn click option 5 ties to turn mouse keys on and off and followed his instructions to open dropbox but to no avail. now my old XP computer is freezing when I go into outlook express or on a webb page which is wasn't doing before I installed dropbox.

RE: dropbox help please
I never go anywhere near the DropBox app. It is a waste of time. As I say all you need to do is press command shift H and then locate your dropbox folder beneath your downloads folder.

Ok. rout the curser with cmd vo f5 to the dropbox icon in the extras menu, then option click on the icon, that is option and click the mouse pad.

If you want the file to be a direct dl link add ?dl=1 to the end of the link. Hth.
