API to work with dropbox.com from .NET 4.5

I'm developing metro app using C# and XAML, i want to connect to Dropbox.com and retrieve files from dropbox, I tried to install dropbox API's from here and here and some other links But when i install from Package Manager Console(VS 2012), it fires an error during installation for all API's please check the imageInstallation Error.
I understand that these version API's do not support for framework 4.5. Can anyone please tell me where i can find correct version that supports framework 4.5.

It doesn't have anything to do with .NET 4.5, it is the project type you selected that's the problem. It selected the .NETCore profile, the one you get from a Portable Class Library project or a Windows Store project. The library you are trying to use can only work in a desktop app.

You could use their generic REST api. Fuggedaboudit if this is a Store app, you can't keep the file transfer going when the user gets bored waiting.
