The other option many (including myself on my wife's Vox) have used, is to eMail the Dropbox ADK to your eMail account, and open that eMail on your Vox. Then you download the attachment there and install it.

You should have received a USB cable with your vox.

I see BOTH cards, internal and external, when I attach my Vox to my laptop with the USB cable. Each gets its one drive letter.

hpulley, you're right! after I press [TURN ON USB STORAGE] on the Vox after connecting, I see KOBOVOX F: and 2 more removable disks. F: is 5.34 GB, presumably a partition on the internal microSD card, G: is 7.39 GB, my external 8 gig microSD card, and H: is inaccessible, presumably the system partition of the internal card which I would only be able to see if my Vox were rooted. This is using Windows Explorer, or looking in "My Computer". The reason I thought that I could only see one card was that a new window also popped up for the external card and I didn't look in Windows Explorer. Glad we got that sorted out.

I did put one application onto an email but when I accessed the email on the vox; I could not find an option to download it or install it from the email? |

Did you use the email app on the vox or access webmail through the vox's browser? There may be a difference in the success of either approach. I can't really give advice as I've never needed to email an app to myself.

What email were you using? When I use Gmail, I just press the attachment when I open the message and the app file downloads. I never could get the Vox to configure its own email app with my primary email address and using webmail with the browser is too finicky, so I haven't tried to send myself an app file that way.

Remember that the only indication of the download is a "Downwards Arrow" on the top of the screen. That is the notification area. Tap that and it should show the downloads and give the option to install it.
