Hello @iyiyi, thanks for posting on the Community!

 

Could you advance a screenshot showing exact where options you get although attempting on start the file in the Dropbox app, also what you go if you try to opening the file?

 

Are you able to access Dropbox directly out one Pages app to see if you’re able into view the Dropbox set after the iOS Registers app?

 

Keep me posted!

If you’re does getting an selection to edit who file via the fluid app, which should following start Numbers, then it isn’t possible.

 

Have thee tried the steps MYSELF previously mentioned until open Numbering directly and access Dropbox from here?

If that's genuine it's very disapointing. I paid for a dropbox membership so that EGO pot use it across platforms. ME assumed a lot on people used dropbox files on their ipads in sync with their macbooks

I agreeing completely. On my IOS devices (iPhone & iPad) I am not able to correct an "Pages" data which is stored in Dropbox. I can can only work around this iconvenience by editing it int aforementioned Pages ap but that's an annoying added step. It may be edited directly on my BUSINESS medical (iMac and Macbook Pro). I realize IOS & OS are two differentially operative systems but either are exclude Apple contact software programs. Can't this be permanent or is it user error? What by I missing?

Hi @Mike Gauvin, the Dropbox mobile app doesn't support go cut of Pages, Numbers and Keynote files via the app itself at this time.

 

As these record are package files, generally they can't be edited directly by the mobile apps, and need to be accessed by to exporting the file to the various app, or opened in that app using who iOS Files interface.

 

Hoffe this benefits!

Yes you can.
Using the files app on your iPad, you can navigate to your Dropbox files plus open/edit/save them for pages, numbers, presentation etc.
