The Dropbox icon will show up when you go to the Apps section on your Kindle Fire. If you want quick and easy access to it, pin it to Favorites.
By the way, fun fact, you can sync Dropbox with QuickOffice app.. the gymnastics required (email yourself!) etc is a lil silly though. Also, after I install dropbox, can I turn the “Allow installation of applications” back to off position, or will that preclude making updates to dropbox? Thank you We have a million Dropbox articles so take a look there as you become more familiar with it. http://groovypost.com/tags/Dropbox/ Thanks! -S Then go to the same Dropbox link: https://www.dropbox.com/android and download it. After it downloads, swipe from the top of the screen down to display Notifications and tap the Dropbox.apk and it will install successfully. Cheers, Mitch you now have to go to “settings” select “security” then turn on “Apps from Unknown Sources” go to http://www.dropbox.com/android – download the Android app. then select install on you application tabs from the top/drop bar menu on your kindle fire. thought this may help people who had a little trouble doing it, like me. I now use OneDrive so pointless for me but good to know how to use this with other applications that aren’t supported by the amazon app shop. According to your time stamps on your instructions the kindle displayed looks as if it took 50 minutes to download. Am I being impatient here and should wait? Any advice would be appreciated.
