Issue
How do I create a U-M Dropbox account?
Resolution
Important: If you also have a personal Dropbox account, ensure you are logged out of that account on the web and the desktop application before creating your U-M Dropbox account. Additionally, if your personal (non-UM) Dropbox account is associated with your @umich.edu email address, you will be prompted to change the email on that account in order to join U-M Dropbox (do not select "Join the umich.edu account" when prompted in this scenario).
- Go to dropbox.umich.edu.
- Caution: Do not go to dropbox.com to sign in to U-M Dropbox. Do not select Sign in with Google or Sign in with Apple, as neither option will sign you in to U-M Dropbox.
- Sign in with your uniqname and UMICH password via U-M Sign In and complete multi-factor authentication.
- Click Continue on the "Single sign-on" page after login.
- Confirm that your name is listed correctly, and check the I agree to the Dropbox Business Agreement box on the "Welcome to University of Michigan's Dropbox Business" page.
- Click Finish joining the team.
After completing these steps, your account will be created automatically, and you will be taken to the U-M Dropbox homepage.
