Dropbox help 3 (OAuth app authorization flow?)

[Mike Kerner]

What is failing on mobile or other machines?  Are you getting an error?
That reminds me, I have a more recent version of the LC dropbox library
that does more complete error reporting.  If I remember correctly Monte is
going to integrate this version in an upcoming LC but I don't remember when
or if it's in 9 DP11
Attach this as a substack.  The error reporting will be more descriptive:

On the first day, God created the heavens and the Earth
On the second day, God created the oceans.
On the third day, God put the animals on hold for a few hours,
   and did a little diving.
And God said, "This is good."
