Issue

My name is incorrect in U-M Dropbox. How can I correct it?

Resolution

Your name in U-M Dropbox is set to the name displayed on your MCommunity profile when you first log in to U-M Dropbox. The name will not update automatically after legal name changes nor after setting a Preferred Name. In these situations, you will need to manually change your name in U-M Dropbox per the instructions below:

1. Log in at https://dropbox.umich.edu/
2. Click on the account icon in the top-right corner of the page (i.e., the circle with your initials or picture).
3. Select "Settings" from the menu that appears.
4. Select "Edit" directly to the right of your name.
5. Change your name as needed and click the "Change name" button.
