I have a personal Box account and a work Box account. Merging them into the same file system is not an option for me. How can I create a Synbc point for the second account? I use a Mac and an iPhone. Thanks!

Hi David,

Welcome to the Box Community! I'm happy to help.

I understand that we can't merge 2 Box accounts and the best we can do is to make yourself a collaborator to your other account so that you can sync your files to one account.

Unfortunately, this is only a partial solution for me. I need to be able to sync folders that were shared with me, and I don't necessarily have the permissions to reshare them with my personal account, and I cannot always request the extra share.

I am sure that I am not alone with this requirement. Is there any way to make multiple account sync a priority feature request?

Thanks, David
