All my files were missing after I upload all of them in the app. Is there anyway I can restore them thru trash?

Hi, I am getting an error "Email already used in a Box account but not associated with an enterprise" when trying to create a user. Can you assist me with removing this users existing account so I can create the enterprise account?Thank you, Brad<personal information-redacted>

I have an Enterprise account.  I am not getting box email notifications.   We white listed all the required box email addresses.  I ran a test via the admin panel -  it did not work.  Other users are getting email    Also it is exceptionally annoying that Box makes it so difficult to get support

Hi all , I need IT support becuase i can not accept the invitation to colaborate to folders .  Also I can not install Box app in IoS.    Look forward to the feedback. Is urgent 

i created a new folder in my account and every time i try to upload, it shows me that account storage limit reached. I checked my account in admin console and i have unlimited storage. What's going on? Could you help me.

I have been granted access rights for some time,However, when we checked this morning, all of them were inaccessible.We would appreciate your help in resolving this issue. Address <personal information-redacted>best regards,Shiho Abe

I cannot figure why a folder's settings has the option to allow external collaboration greyed-out. I've checked the following things: External collaboration is allowed from admin panel User does not have external collaboration restriction enabled I believe the folder in question is a top-level folder so it isn't inheriting from a parent Please help, thanks!

Please create a ticket so my personal account can be added to our corporate account.

Hi all, A shared folder recently went missing for all of us, and it isn't in our Trash folders. How can we recover it?  It was in my "All Folders" top level. I had been accessing via a bookmark. Now the bookmark gives an error ("Oops! We can't seem to find the page you're looking for."), navigating to "All Folders" level doesn't show it either, and a search for files I know were in the folder comes up with nothing. Thanks! Best, Nathan

I am attempting to reconfigure 2FA for my account and the QR code never loads. When I attempt to use SMS/email verification, I get an error saying they are invalid. I have seen other posts on the community suggesting the same - can you please help?  I am running out of backup codes to use at login for 2FA and fear I will be locked out of my account. Please help.

Sometimes documents open properly.  Other times, I get a "Launching Application" dialog box, but nothing opens on my computer.

Since May 2024, I have been uploading photos and videos taken on my iPhone to Box using my Mac. However, upon recently reviewing the data, I found that some videos had been automatically converted to JPEG images, and I can no longer play the videos. I understand that if I upgrade to a paid plan, I may be able to use version history to recover these files. However, I’m hesitant to pay without a guarantee that I can actually restore the videos. If I revert to a previous version, will it truly allow me to recover the videos from the images they have become? I am very concerned about this issue. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

Hello, I created a box.com account using gmail sign up because a client shared a folder with me. Once registered I could see the shared folder but it said I needed to create a stronger password first to access the files. I went to my account and selected to add a password since I signed up with gmail and didn't need a password. I received repeated errors. Tried all variations of a password, tried to add 2fa as a workaround, no luck. I tried deleting my account to create a new one manually but now it says my email is already taken or there is a billing error (even though its a free account). I got an email about reactivating my account and tried this and got another error. This has been incredibly frustrating and I really need to access the client file. I would appreciate some help and guidance.  thank you

Hello, I am attempting to add a second email and have not received an email with a link to verify.  I have received an email that states "The email xxxx@xxx.com is pending verificatuion for the Box account "xxx." You can manage your email addresses in Account Settings." There is nothing to click in order to verify the email.  I have tried resending the verificaiton and continue to get the above email.  How can I verify my email so it is not pending verification. Thank you!

I need someone to help me access my box account since there is no way I can get the 6-digit password that the authenticator asks for, which one should I use? how do I configure it? Not the current account, but another account.
