I managed to get things (seemingly) set up after my second try, but I keep running into an error when I try to download files. I can see them in my dropbox from my Kindle, but when I try to download them I get an error reading "could not save file to: /mnt/us/documents/pdfs/example.pdf" , that being where I tried to save up. Looking in that folder, I can see a file with the name of the one I tried to download, but its very small. (113 B in this case) and won't open. I have tried this with a few different files, including a PDF, JPG, and plain text file. None have been bigger then 1 MB with the exception of the JPG. Any advice?
