I am a member of a corporation that has a Business Plus membership.When I use Box Sign to set a certain external user's email address (email address A) as a signatory and execute a signature request, it automatically changes to a completely different external user email address (email address B) afterward.This phenomenon only occurs with that specific email address (email address A).However, when Box folder access permissions are granted to this email address (email address A), this issue does not occur, and the permissions are properly granted to this email address (email address A).How can I resolve this Box Sign problem?

I cannot see files my clients are uploading and they can't see mine, they are clicking on the invite and trying to upload to that page.  There is no folder on the splash page for them to drop it in to and even though I can see they are in there (they are sending me screenshots) my side still shows that they are “pending”  This is happening on the last 3 with 3 different clients.  Help?

Hello,I am using an individual Box account and I am currently unable to send signature requests via Box Sign. Every time I try to do so, I see the following message:"Please note that the ability to send Box Sign signature requests is temporarily unavailable for certain users (you are, however, still able to receive and sign documents)."I would like to understand whether this limitation is temporary, or if it’s due to my account type or plan.If it is a plan limitation, please advise what plan I would need to upgrade to in order to enable this functionality.Thank you in advance for your support.

Currently using a non enterprise account. Been utilizing a file that is shared with me, but periodically file goes missing with “Oops! We can't seem to find the page you're looking for.” The parties i am collaborating with have not changed anything but we want to continue access with file. We constantly lose access after a couple month.  No changes have been made on file and location. is there a way to grant access to file further than a couple months?  Please assist.

I’m trying to install a Box Drive on my Mac and when I try to download the application it fails.  I’ve restarted my computer and tried a different browser (Safari and Chrome) and nothing seems to work.  It seems that no one is available at Box to provide assistance so I'd very much appreciate any assistance.  Thank you. 

 I can't find where to go to change it.

So, when I was working as an Intern, I had a certain IBM id through which I pushed all my content to the Box before giving the laptop.. After joining as a new employee, I was given a new ID and I couldnt retrieve the files of Box from the old ID because of which when I did the transfer ownership method for IBM even though my manager approved it, I didnt get any confirmation mail? Any reason for this?

Is there a way to require users to input an email address before accessing a box directory? We are sharing a folder and would like to understand which emails are accessing this folder, and how often. Looking at the current security options, it doesn’t seem to be possible, does anyone know a way to set this up? We are using a Box Enterprise account.
