Dropbox Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • topoproc Topological Processor (@topoproc) reported

    Personal use, a rasp pi can serve as a reverse proxy. My plex subdomain goes to one computer, pydio cells (file server, like dropbox) to another, routed by HAProxy on an rpi. Customer-shared apps require more power. Those use SDN on ESXi with FreeBSD routers and proxies/LBs.

  • DLYNTHEBRAND Danie Lyn The Brand (@DLYNTHEBRAND) reported

    @DropboxSupport Yes. I can log in via web & my MacBook. This iMac is giving me issues since the account issue we reached out about earlier.

  • mattasheridan Matthew Sheridan (@mattasheridan) reported

    @ArmandDoma I pay for Dropbox for my personal cloud storage. And the main reason is IT WORKS. Never had dealt with a bug, or a file failing to back up, or some random issue. Can't say the same about onedrive, gdrive, box, etc.

  • Malastair_ Joey (@Malastair_) reported

    @tynanofficial @Subtronics I’ve heard good things about Dropbox and it’s kind of the standard for cloud storage and file transfers and stuff but I use mega because it’s a little cheaper and I’ve had no problems with them

  • jim_timpson Jim Timpson (@jim_timpson) reported

    @DropboxSupport Dropbox support options are terrible. My email was compromised (and closed) and inable to change email due to "expired password". No real support options??? I want to upgrade to paid plan to save my info. HELP ! I know orig email address and password

  • DropboxSupport Dropbox Support (@DropboxSupport) reported

    @petrkout Hey Petr, we're sorry to hear that you're having issues with Dropbox on your Mac. Could you please send us a DM so we can look into these issues with you?

  • Crypto_Ed_NL Ed_NL (@Crypto_Ed_NL) reported

    Having problems uploading a video to YT. Same format as all previous videos. Tried different file sizes, but the upload freezes at max 5%. Chrome + Firefox. I can upload to Google Drive, dropbox and watch it but just not YT. What to do?

  • AndyVanBass Andy Van Engen (@AndyVanBass) reported

    @DropboxSupport I am not having any trouble, but wanted you to see that I got the popup again. Dropbox v147.4.4800. MacOS 12.2.1

  • vocalnick Not that Nick (@vocalnick) reported

    @gray Is it an “online only” Dropbox folder? I get teeny tiny previews in that scenario and it took me a while to figure out the issue…

  • nilomeejesrani Nilomee Jesrani (@nilomeejesrani) reported

    @debarghya_das @USAndIndia We've learned that the next lot of Dropbox appointments will be for September! Which means we can't travel outside the U.S. or go to India until we find an appointment. Why is the process so slow? WE NEED FREEDOM of mobility in and out of the U.S.!!!!

  • helenpringle helen pringle (@helenpringle) reported

    @simonewatson6 @RJMcDiarmid too old, too slow: only just emailed it. BIG FILE. can upload to dropbox if easier.

  • Davidnajera193 Azrael (@Davidnajera193) reported

    @vaultofleaks Can someone Dropbox it to me because the link not working for me

  • iamfogo Special Guest DJ (@iamfogo) reported

    Why has dropbox been incredibly slow lately?

  • AchillesS386 Krishna (@AchillesS386) reported

    @USAndIndia If you want to fix this backlog, remove the Appointment requirement for dropbox (Like it was originally intended and implemented). There is no point of having a "Dropbox" if that requires and appointment and no appointments are available!

  • glitter_shop_ Glitter Shop (@glitter_shop_) reported

    Just found a cover we did over a year ago of a Broken Social Scene song buried in a Dropbox folder - should we release it?

  • LudoAuthor Connor Ludovissy is looking for ARCs (@LudoAuthor) reported

    @CatherineDownen Scrivener and Dropbox. Never had an issue. And when I screw up and do something dumb, the automatic backups help.

  • CarlFoxmarten Carl Foxmarten (@CarlFoxmarten) reported

    @the_gneech Years ago, I had a problem with installing Dropbox on another computer (well before they limited those on free accounts to three installs) when I moved the folder it put my Dropbox tree in, and it thought I'd deleted *everything*, and started deleting everything from my account.

  • treebyanyname Pineapple Fruit Salad (@treebyanyname) reported

    @Over_Revving @coomsicle @TropeCrafter Do you remember the dropbox that had almost every terrible recipe you could find? **** was wild for its time

  • segraffiti callen (@segraffiti) reported

    @dead_byt every cloud storage company is ***. Dropbox used to be good (like the desktop version having a cloud folder in windows explorer) but it’s expensive & slow. Google Drive is *** for merging all the storage from their 37362848 services into one thing. i can’t get emails now 😭

  • SeeTwoGaming C2 🇨🇦 🇺🇦 🌎 🇷🇺 (@SeeTwoGaming) reported

    @JustinScerini Heh. True. Simple enough to put your wallet in Dropbox but encrypt it with server locked encryption that doesn't exist anymore. #foreverHODLer

  • TheSatya_ Satya (@TheSatya_) reported

    @USAndIndia Great initiative but the lack of available appointment slots is a part of the problem, would there be any potential increase in the number of dropbox appointments available?

  • debgotwired Deb Mukherjee 👋 (@debgotwired) reported

    @EmmaFayeS It's always super slow for me. I use Dropbox Paper to write and then transfer it back to G-docs.

  • SkipPhotog Gareth Skipp (@SkipPhotog) reported

    @Dropbox @DropboxSupport for crying out loud can Dropbox stop requesting me to sync when I boot up my MacBook Pro?? And it won't let me sign in from this because it says I've exceed devices. So why ask to sync anyway?? Please fix this glitch! #Timewaster

  • REALARPHARAZON WILLIAM RUSSELL WADE (@REALARPHARAZON) reported

    @JeriLRyan BY YOUR CHOICE? IS THIS AKIN TO, BY YOUR COMMAND? DROPBOX, IS SO SLOW, TOO. 🤔

  • JayinWashington JayinWashington (@JayinWashington) reported

    @GOPChairwoman So step down RINO. You are all talk, now is the time for action. Start securing our election integrity NOW! Put a camera on Every. Single. Dropbox.

  • Rdonair Richard (@Rdonair) reported

    @DropboxSupport Did incognito. Made no difference. Sometimes upload stalls at either one second or one minute left but mostly it's slow - way slower than other options and much slower than the speed my @Speedtest says is available.

  • uncreepy_studio ✨🌷UNCREEPY🌷✨ (@uncreepy_studio) reported

    @dead_byt But problems came up when we started using their smart sync feature. Lots of files perpetually had a grey X (especially music files, so we couldn't listen to them!). Even after uninstalling Dropbox, the Xes are still there. We are dumb & didn't know OneDrive comes for "free"...

  • Sexyhannah7 Sexy_hannah (@Sexyhannah7) reported

    **** i’m so horny who's down to buy nudes Dropbox videocall dm me.! #wet #sellingcontent #buyingcontent.

  • DropboxSupport Dropbox Support (@DropboxSupport) reported

    @DLYNTHEBRAND Just out of curiosity, are you experiencing this issue only via the Dropbox app installed on your computer? Are you able to log into your Dropbox account via the web, for instance?
