Do I need to upgrade my plan as a collaborator to send unlimited e-signs or do I need to upgrade my plan? Please help. 

Hello,I cannot sign in to my box account due to my phone number is changed. I cannot get the two factor auth number. I have read the related topic:I tried to submit a ticket to our Product Support team from https://support.box.com/hc/en-us/requests, but the submit button doesn’t work.Thank you,

I'm currently unable to transfer admin responsibilities from a terminated admin to myself. We have access to the terminated employee's e-mail. when we attempt to change the admin roles, we receive a confirmation e-mail, but then get the follwing response when we click on the approve button in the confirmation e-mail: YOu do not have permission to confirm this administrator transfer, please log out and try again after logging in as the administrator,

I want to clean my box.com available space. Files was deleted but still shows 9.1GB used. Is it a bug? Guide me solution please!!!

I was attempting to carry out the following steps in order to switch the default email address to one with an alias: Link the target email address using “Link personal email” Change the primary email address to the newly added email address. Delete the email address that was originally set as the primary one. What I did: Linked the target email address using “Link personal email” → Confirmed that a verification (approval) email was sent. Before approving via the verification email, I deleted the newly added email address from the account settings screen (I mistakenly thought there was an error in the alias and intended to revert to the original state once). → Deletion completed successfully. Attempted again to link the target email address. → An error message saying “An error occurred while adding the account” is displayed, and I am unable to link the email address. How can this issue be resolved?

A user for one of our clients is being asked to type in an MFA code but they never set up MFA and their account doesn't even have the license to allow MFA.

Hello,I have subscribed under free plan to check the services and features, so when clients sign the file and completed then getting an email with *An error occurred while processing the signature request. Please initiate a new signature request.*Please advise ASAP.Thank you!Shailesh Patel

Don’t see in box where I can enter my job title and company so I don’t have to enter in new each time when I sign a document in Box Sign. 

I am getting very frustrated with Wealthbox.xom and Box.com.  I completed a document migration 2 weeks ago, I have the Box.com account but my other users for Wealthbox are being forced to get a Box.xom subscription to access files that we imported.  This is my second attempt at getting an answer from support at Box.xom, which I am beginning to feel is all a scam.

The individual uploading files has confirmed that she is sending them, I have been able to access all others from her in the past. She has uploaded one 3 times now and I am not receiving the invitation at all. 

My company told me to reach out to Box.com support to help solve this issue. I must start off by saying the process of trying to contact Box.com support is incredibly frustrating and makes me want to consider using a different service instead. The person who previously held my position had a Box.com account with all of our Marketing & Sales files for the team to easily access. My property just purchased a new Box.com subscription for me, but when I went to request an account transfer, the former associate’s name/email does not show up with an account associated--I'm guessing this is because she left the company months ago. Can someone from Box.com please open a support ticket to help me recover this account and transfer the files over to my new Box.com account? I was told by my company that this situation will be handled by Box L3 collaboration support completing the transfer.

I got asked by one of my colleagues if they had to create a new box account or if the folder I shared with them could be viewed on their current account - is this possible? And if so, how can I do this?

My current email address will expire next month. I tried updating it through Account setting → Link personal email.However it failed and showed an error message ‘There was an error while trying to add ~~~@~~~ to your account’ 

Greetings,My company has recently moved from SharePoint to Box, which has been mostly trouble-free. However, when working in Word Desktop mode in Box, the ‘@’ function to flag reviewers is not working.  I rely heavily on this to alert multiple reviewers to time-sensitive input. thank you,Flowers Lovern

How do I change the Primary "owners" account email adderss? I have access to the account but cannot change the owners primary email address.

In my Box account, there are several folders (that I created) that are missing, and I cannot find them in the trash bin. I would appreciate admins assistance on locating these folders.Thanks

In Box Drive and box.com on my Mac my folders used to expand on the same page so I can still see all my folders. But recently when I double click on a folder, it only displays the content of that one folder and I have to click on the back arrow to get back to the main page. How can I get back to expanding and compressing folders on the main Box window?I wonder if upgrading to Mac Tahoe had something to do with it.NOTE: My Mac Finder is already set to folders open in new tabs instead of new windows, but I don’t want new tabs. I want the Box folders to expand in the main Box window. 

Support / Community:Our team uses file tags to help categorize and assign values to files. These are of course visible and searchable while logged onto a browser but outside of that it appears they are NOT available. They are especially concerned with BOX mobile app.  Like the browser, if assigned, they should be visible and searchable.   Can someone help with this out users are asking for this ability? Thank you in advance,Pete 

I opened a box account to sign into  USAfx for federal discovery.  I cannot open an account under USAfx but can log into my Box account.   Do I need to be invited by the US Attorney to access USAfx?

I no longer seem to be able to copy files from one folder to another. The error message says I cannot do this because it leads to an escalation of my privilege - although my privilege has not changed and this has not been a problem before. I wonder if it's due to a recent software up-to-date on my iMac ? 

We are adding our client to box and his email is not receiving the invitation, trouble shooting has not helped to resolve the issue. TIA for guidance.

I have a business plus account, which supports custom terms of service, but the help article says to contact your customer success manager. I have not yet been assigned or contacted by one. I have no option to contact support other than through posting on this forum.Please advise, and if possible, enable this feature for me. It is an essential part of our use case for Box.
