  • dontbehave Steve Marshall (@dontbehave) reported

    @DropboxSupport Download Dropbox and like many others it wiped away my desktop icons and downloads Need immediate help Saw this on the Internet was a Dropbox problem People need a fast solution Help

  • FrustratedImmi2 Frustrated Immigrant (@FrustratedImmi2) reported

    @DropboxBusiness @Dropbox @DropboxSupport As it has been two months without any update on this issue, any support or any work around provided, can you confirm that you are no longer interested in the business of designers? 1/3

  • pippin3945 Waterlily (@pippin3945) reported

    @LukeTheNotable Have you thought about making it a torrent download so it can be peer to peer downloaded instead of the risk of dropbox running out and shutting it down

  • racco Racco (@racco) reported

    @hypnic__jerk Probably. It' wouldn't have been an issue if I had dropbox installed on my machine. Then I could have just deleted everything from explorer. But I didn't want to install it, download all the files, only to then delete them all.

    These GOPers that want investigations into election fraud and meddling might want to be careful of what they are asking for. Considering some of the ***** tricks they tried to pull during the 2020 elections, postal machine and Dropbox, removal. Shutting down polling locations.

  • michbsd michbsd (@michbsd) reported

    Giving up on dropbox to iCloud Drive migration - simply not working… For all Apple’s cash and market dominance, it’s comforting to see that there are things they are just not good at.. @Apple @Dropbox

  • ImprintWeb Richard O'Donnell Photography (@ImprintWeb) reported

    @Dropbox website down?

  • petdaw43 Peter Dawson (@petdaw43) reported

    @MoneyWiz In the meantime, I'm having trouble with MoneyWiz 3 on Android not showing receipts (on two different Android devices). They show alright on Windows. I've tried disconnecting Dropbox in SYNCbits, but it won't disconnect!

  • kimcy929 kimcy929 (@kimcy929) reported

    Dropbox has a bad UX login.

  • ToddHoyer Todd Hoyer (@ToddHoyer) reported

    @stuartbrazell @AdobePremiereCC I have tons of crashing problems with Premiere if I'm using cloud files from Dropbox or G-Drive. I always recommend downloading to the local drive if you can. I know, in theory, it's supposed to work with cloud files or external drive files, but that's always when I get crashes

  • thomasforth Tom Forth (@thomasforth) reported

    I really have only one remaining big problem. Which you'll notice if you try and use PhotoMaps and your photos are synced to your computer via Dropbox, Google Cloud, OneDrive, etc... etc... all of which now default to not actually storing the files on your computer, just links.

  • safewordsophie Sophie (@safewordsophie) reported

    Hey @Procreate, I keep getting an error trying to send a PSD to Dropbox. Is there anything I can do, sending the file to files flattens the image 🥲

  • filyos_uyar some guy (@filyos_uyar) reported

    @LukeTheNotable Dropbox is a terrible service

  • TheQueenAthena Athena has very strong feelings about food. (@TheQueenAthena) reported

    This is actually indicative of a major problem where I have literally thousands of unsorted photos in my personal dropbox

  • WartoothDesigns Wartooth Exotic 🥔💨 (@WartoothDesigns) reported

    TIL: If you are using @Dropbox on a Mac, have “online only” files but still see physical space taken up on your HD: login online>profile>settings>Smart Sync update for Mac>toggled ON. Wait(an eternity if you have assloads of files like me) Be happy w/ all the new space.

  • KulkNikhil nikhil_kulk (@KulkNikhil) reported

    @Dkirk94 T H I S. Dropbox is better for me than drive but drives upload is just terrible for such short videos...

  • DropboxSupport Dropbox Support (@DropboxSupport) reported

    @robantonelli01 Hi Rob, we hope you don't mind us jumping in. Did you disable "background app refresh" for Dropbox, and do you have the location services disabled for the Dropbox app too? Does the issue persist then?

  • alexschmidt alexschmidt (@alexschmidt) reported

    I hate the @Dropbox app on Mac soooo much. It is terrible, TERRIBLE UX and incredibly misleading for something that is so critical (file backups!!) Why do I pay for this? Because the other options stink too.

  • jpalomaki Juha Palomäki (@jpalomaki) reported

    Complaints of #wsl2 causing .*** corruptions. Haven't had any issues myself. With WSL2 i moved all my project stuff to the Linux side and #vscode as editor. Also sync most of the files to @Dropbox using the Linux headless client.

  • CgrcevichAuthor Chrystal Grcevich #GiftWINGS (@CgrcevichAuthor) reported

    @TheImprovisor Of course! It’s hard to buy online things anyway without knowing the company. I heard a lot of “an iPad does this and more!” but didn’t want something with all that function; just something to write and convert text. Wish it had DropBox, but that’s not really an issue for me.

  • Talonblaze Talonblaze (@Talonblaze) reported

    @TayraWhite Tried restarting Discord? Otherwise would probably suggest using something like Dropbox or GoogleDrive for the time being! Not the best solution, but until Discord can figure out the issue, might be the best method. Sorry it's not working for you.

  • tisfoolish Foolish (@tisfoolish) reported

    @ChCrumbles @BenjaminShabea1 As an archiver GDrive is a pain to deal with because it's so slow to interact with. It's faster than DropBox where you have to download each file individually -_- MediaFire has a better UI and allows for mass downloading.

  • AAbdullah2x آلاء (@AAbdullah2x) reported

    @Dropbox I have an issue with Dropbox and no one is answering me!

  • thomasforth Tom Forth (@thomasforth) reported

    In previous versions I used the OneDrive API to work around this problem. But the OneDrive API changes a lot. The way synced files work in Windows changes a lot. And there are dozens of file syncing tools (Google Drive, iCloud, Dropbox, etc... etc...) that all work differently.

  • Mehrnoosh__R Mehrnoosh Reshadi (@Mehrnoosh__R) reported

    @Antoine__V How did you solve it? Does installing it on a non-cloud-based folder fix it? We use OneDrive at uni (very similar to Dropbox) and I want to access my pdf files from any system so I added my folders on OneDrive to watch folders in Mendeley. Is that the cause?

  • DeepSanghvii Deep Sanghvi (@DeepSanghvii) reported

    @Dropbox I have followed steps that are told on play store but app doesn't opening and keep crashing. Kindly fix that.

  • X512DA 🌺 (@X512DA) reported

    @razibkhan Can you share the Dropbox link again? That link is not working.

  • ripienaar R.I.Pienaar (@ripienaar) reported

    @lkanies For more basic things my companies are setup to survive for years while on pause and still provide salaries and have functional directors and bills for the linked of Dropbox paid so data on shared drives will probably last long enough heh. Big problem though

  • scottpeachey Scott 'Big Papa 🍑' Peachey (@scottpeachey) reported

    @DropboxSupport I have emailed about my two factor issues...multiple times and now 3-4 weeks ago, can someone help me?

  • Antoine__V Antoine Vernet (@Antoine__V) reported

    @Mehrnoosh__R Duplicates have been the main issue for me. It had to do with Dropbox. But even after solving this, one still has to deal with the existing duplicates.
