お客様とBOXにてファイルの授受を行っているのですが、一部お客様よりBOXにログインできないとご連絡いただいております。 ログインの際に 通常とは異なる画面が表示されております。 ※画面のコピーは添付しております。 対応方法をご存じでしたらご教示いただけないでしょうか。 なお画面発生までの流れとしては、以下の通りです。 対象お客様のBOX利用開始に伴い招待メールを送信→お客様にて招待メールのURLから登録情報設定→利用開始するため、BOXのログイン画面へアクセスしようとすると添付の画面が表示される 画面には「確認メールが送られています」と表示されていますが、お客様に確認すると最初の招待メール以外BOXのメールは届いていないとのことでした。

Can you disable 2FA so he can be able to log in and set up again? Thank you!

Recently I upgraded Box from free personal use to 3 users license. But after that, to search Folders or Archives is impossible, the tool doesn´t find my requests. I ve tried some filters, etc but nothing. I am clueless but without the search tool, the app is not  worthy for our organization.  

I need to change my email address because my email provider is shutting down. I couldn’t find a way to contact customer service directly. Looking forward to receiving advice/support.Thank you!

I have one user whom I have set up within BOX for an account. All my users should SSO through the system without issues and in the most part this is true.For one user however it routes him to a password field.I believe the issue is rooted in that he had previously set up an independent BOX account with the email. I have deleted the user once and currently remains deleted but when re-invited he still gets passed through to the Password entry field and not the SSO.As his original account was set up as a guest for a different site I don’t seem to have a way for me to now get the accounts to talk correctly

Some data that I used to store on Box got lost.I’m pretty sure it was there 1 year ago, but then I moved folders around and now the folders I copied from Box don’t have those files anymore.I’d need to get in contact to Box support and recover my files from ∼1 year ago.I’ll pay if needed, just help me recover my files!I can’t seem to find a way to contact Box support

It seems that Box may not be able to deliver SMS verification codes to mobile phones in China since last week. Several colleagues and I are experiencing the same issue.Our Box accounts are used to access folders shared by our client. Since we cannot receive the verification codes, we are unable to access those shared folders. All the files can’t be seen. Cannot access Box account due to SMS verification issue.Is it possible to switch the verification method from SMS to email or an authenticator app? Unfortunately, we cannot access the security settings page to make any changes.Any advice would be greatly appreciated. 

I shared the folder with the external user. When the user tried to log in, the Verification code cannot be received.  She can log in and access the folder previously, but now, the code cannot be delivered. Please help.

I am receiving a "storage full" notification on my account, but my actual usage is well below the limit. I still have plenty of available space, but the system is not updating or allowing me to upload files.Could someone please help me resolve this issue or force-refresh my account storage status?

I have been invited to multiple shared folders but whenever I click “Accept Invite”, regardless of what the invite is, I am directed to one folder and cannot find any of my other folders. Even folders I previously had access to disappeared. I have checked with the owners that I have the correct permissions and the email is correct and I should still have access. Just wondering why I am unable to accept invites or able to see any other folder in my account when I know I have access and also why any invite I accept goes to the same, unrelated folder. 

Some months ago, we signed a contract on BoxSign. Looking for the record but I didn’t receive any email confirmations. The company we signed it with say the person in charge has left and they do not have the login credentials to get the copy. I have the document ID. Can Box Sign help? I have obviously created an account since then.

I have aliases on my computer that I have made from folders in Box that work just fine. However when I go to create an alias now, it turns into some kind of a word document.    

Is there a way to disable this new feature? I copy and share links all the time, its a big part of my company workflow, this feature is adding unnessesary steps and time for myself and team. Any help would be huge!!!   

I received an invite to an external account, but when I logon I am directed to another external account that I had been already been invited to and still need to access. How may I access the new external account?

We are trying to update our account owners primary email address but are getting an error message. 

Hello!When Content Insights identifies an authenticated collaborator’s action as “Downloaded,” which methods generate that event? Specifically, does the event occur when the collaborator : (1) previews the file, (2) opens it in Microsoft Word for the web using Office co-authoring, (3) opens it in desktop Word through Box Edit, (4) opens it through Box Drive, OR (5) manually selects Download? We need to distinguish browser-based co-authoring from actions that create a local copy for compliance purposes.Thanks in advance for the responses and insights!

Search is not returning files that I know are in Box, I have tried every filter, deleted cookies/cache, restarted computer, and still search isn’t working for basically any files.

I understand this can happen due to permissions, link removal, or account access issues. However, in my case, I only have the shared link and do not know who owns the file or folder, so I'm unable to contact the owner directly.Is there any way to identify the owner or determine who shared the link? Are there any troubleshooting steps I can take to verify whether the issue is with permissions, a removed link, or my account access?Thanks for any guidance.

I am having trouble logging into my school box account. Whenever I try to reset my password as well, I never receive the email in my inbox (not even in spam). Can you help me create a new account/update my password with my school email account?

All, New to Box here.  Can anyone provide some info to a Beginner about uploading a file on Box and accepting an invitation if I might not bet set up correctly. I received an email from a coworker today and clicked the accept invite and signed up.  But when I went to upload the file i receive an error.  Also, should I be seeing anything from the coworker.   Thanks
