delete dropbox from opening documents on ipad

It seems that no matter what i wish to download on ipad, all are saved to dropbox and dropbox cannot read the file, so i wish to change the settings so that downloaded documents are opened in pages maybe.


Can someone please direct me to the right settings on my ipad to stop dropbox being the default opening programm.


Many thanks

Where are the documents being "downloaded" to? When you tap and hold down on a document as a mail attachment - you should get the Open In option to pop up and then you can select Open In Pages - if that is where you want to open the document.


Are you using file sharing with iTunes to transfer your Pages files? Using iCloud?
