6. Click "I don't have a Dropbox account".

10. Almost complete. You can hit continue to take the tour or skip the tour.
11. You only need to click on "Finish".
Note: You need to have someone "share" a folder with you. AND you need to accept the invitation. See next steps.
12. Open the email from Dropbox. You may need to look in your "Junk Mailbox". Click on the "View" link.
13. You may have to log into your dropbox account first. Then click on "Accept".
