I'm trying to open a file on the dropbox website, but it won't open on my MBP. It just shows blank.

Should I try to update flash player, or is there some reason I don't know about as to why it won't open?

What kind of file is it? Have you tried downloading it?
 
install the application from the web site. It also will solve this issue.
 
It's a PDF. I downloaded it, and it works. I thought I could just view it online. Thanks for your help though!

I can view PDFs direct on the DropBox web site in a little popup window that comes up. I am on Safari. What browser are you on? Do you maybe have an adblocker or popup blocker that is stopping this from working?
