    @DropboxSupport Hi there, thanks for reaching out. I figured it out by just trashing the old Dropbox files and redownloading them off the server!

    @ThatAndromeda There's a reason "just a few files hosted on a server" is a complicated enough problem to make easy for users, secure and scalable that multiple huge companies like Dropbox exist in basically that space and that space only.

    @physicsgeek Apparently a witness used a lawyer to send his videos to the defense and prosecution after having trouble sending them with the limited Dropbox the detectives tried to get him to use. And the lawyer works for a firm that did some minor thing for the defense.

    Yall they ****** with me, Eternal Overload (both the original & deluxe) and the LEAKPLUGG Mixtape have been taken down. Idk why but I'm looking into everything. For now I'll issue a temporary Dropbox for y'all to download these songs. I'll be updating the albums as some of the...

    @ChadScherrer ...2/2 on the drop-down menu, and see the option to create a "Dropbox Paper". Let us know if this doesn't work for you, and we'll go from there!

    I wonder if the issue is actually based on how Dropbox interacts w/ the way the program saves...

    @ritchemac The main problem is they set up the old iPad with the wrong Apple ID so in short no. We are doing it manually using dropbox but the UI for Photos is so minimalistic and lacks 'Select All' in many contexts so it's just a hassle. I showed my daughter how to do it so she's on it.

    @OHLLRN It’s mostly just a lot of strange small issues. My current problems are the PC freezing, sometimes crashing with an emoticon face and it’s Dropbox syncing is behind by days/weeks sometimes. Just realized that one yesterday lol 😬

    @KGOrphanides @Dropbox My login info was exposed in a data breach. Someone got in and deleted all my files.

    @USAndIndia Kindly request to streamline the Visa dropbox appointment booking process. Why? Currently appointments are opened at random time. (24*7) This causes users to check for availability often. Thereby causing account lockout issues for 24 hours and sometimes for 72 hours 🙁

    @DropboxSupport Yes is still an issue and have been for months. It's V133.4.115, Dropbox was installed over a year ago. 1 account for work, and 1 private. Running on a MacBook Pro 16" with i9, 16 GB from 2019 running Monterey 12.0.1

    @CompileSwift I’ll experiment with Bartender and see if it helps. Once I start using it as my full-time machine it will be less of an issue because it will be connected to a monitor. 👍🏻 In trying to diagnose some dropbox issues, the icon was not visible, but was running. Super frustrating. 🙄

    (Q1/5) Hardest part about doing the Thing that you are trying to solve ? The #founder of #dropbox asked all of his friends at #MIT as to what problem they face while working in a group project to get to know about the problem of not being able to store the content at one place.

    @1Password Yes trying to do that with Dropbox, as I recall that worked fine last time. However this time I get a message "The app was not correctly configured and cannot access your Dropbox." Is that an issue with 1Password or Dropbox (as the latter seems to be working fine).

    @ClaireOCallagh9 @RobDeNormandie I don't know if we're talking about the same thing? In my local hospital staff were tested for immunity. Far too many became ill. Lack of appropriate PPE was also a huge problem Don't have Dropbox but thank you for taking the trouble.

    @USAndIndia @USAndMumbai @USAndKolkata Please stop dropbox appointment requirement , thousands of NRI's wanted to visit India and drop box appnts are very few. NRI has to pay Indian agents 5k to 15k just to get appnts they are force to share CGI login id to them, very unethical.

    @USAndIndia Hi Team..Please clarify...Can H1B applicant go for regular appointment even when he is eligible for dropbox because his H4 family members are not eligible for dropbox?? and he want to go together with his family?? Will there be any issues??

    @AppleSupport Thanks for the generic cut and paste job. That article doesn’t address the issue that your and other forums are full of. I pay for iCloud space and get no support. Time to head back to Dropbox. This is the 4th macOS to still have this issue.

    @Dropbox - so there's an issue. i have dropped files into dropbox on my laptop but when i go to dropbox on my desktop, they aren't there. what gives?

  • concretism_mus
    Concretism (@concretism_mus) reported

    @Audio_Obscura Problem with Dropbox is that it's all about storage and you have a quota that quickly fills up, including when other people send you stuff. At least in my experience.
