Can not add my Dropbox account via settings/accounts
asked 2016-07-31 13:48:46 +0200
When I try to add my Dropbox account on my Jolla1 from Settings/Accounts, the waiting spinner just keeps rolling, at one point this morning, I left it for 2 hours and yet still it did not let me sign in.
At the hint of a suggestion in the comments, I opened the gallery, picked a random picture and selected 'Add account', selected Dropbox, consented, input my email/password and bang!, account created!, why can the account not be created via Settings/Accounts directly?, I've never encountered this problem before.
At the moment, I do not have a data plan and am relying solely on wifi connection.

Had the same with Dropbox and Google accounts, both on Jolla 1 and Jolla C. Changing to airplane mode and reactivating the network helped in both cases.

christerj ( 2016-07-31 23:52:17 +0200 )editSame issue with Jolla 1 running 2.0.1.11. It doesn't work with wifi or with mobile data network from the parameter page. But I had a workaround: by selecting a photo in the gallery and click share then it is possible to create the Dropbox account. So strange.
