Numbers Unknown Error Message

When I try and import an excel spreadsheet from Dropbox on my iPad into Numbers on my iPad, I keep getting the following error message:


“The folders content could not be displayed because of an unknown error”


Previously, I had no problems opening Excel from Dropbox into Numbers. Photo attached umbers.

Hello sss1963,


Thanks for reaching out to Apple Support Communities. We see that you are having difficulty opening content from DropBox in the Files app on your iPad. If you haven't done so already, try the following troubleshooting steps, testing after each step:


  1. Restart your iPad.
  2. Verify the OS is up to date. Update your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch.
  3. Sign out of DropBox and then sign back in.


We hope this helps!


Cheers!
