Anyone else having trouble? I tap download and the pop-up comes up I hit continue and it looks like it downloaded but no confirmation message. Doesn't matter the size.

I had a similar problem with old Aura, its not a fix but it will do the job, to bypass the bug I used the desktop edition of dropbox, I would tap on the file I want to download, after it opens the preview, I tap back, and then above the file list it has an option to download, delete etc, that link works for me.

I've never been able to download from Dropbox with regularity. I stopped trying and use the Calibre Content Server to get books to my Kobo.

When I first got the Kobo Glo HD last year, I was able to download a couple of books from Dropbox. But even then it was hit or miss. And slow. I wish it worked. Using Calibre isn't nearly as convenient.

Dropbox has redesigned their site John. It no longer has that look, it changed a month ago? It was working fine till early this week with the menus but now it doesn't finish downloading. I had to do the old mobile site work around by changing the url to get it to download. It's alot to type for each book you want to download​.

I'm sorry, I sold mine about a month, I'm not able to test it anymore, that workaround with the desktop site worked for me until 08/04/2017 the day I last used it.

The new look can be seen from the PC. It's ugly but it was easier to download from with Kobo's website. Because of the new drop-down menu by each file.
