What to do if Dropbox won't install.

You can add nearly any kind of file to your Dropbox account in several ways.

• On desktop, you can drag and drop files into the Dropbox folder

  • You can also use the Save As… menu option in most applications to save files directly to your Dropbox folder

• On dropbox.com, add files with the Upload button or by dragging and dropping

• On a phone or tablet, open the Dropbox app and click the + (plus) icon to upload files

If you add lots of files at once, it may take a while for the initial upload to complete.
