Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • SoTaKnew Mr. Knew (@SoTaKnew) reported

    @DropboxSupport I was able to do some troubleshooting, & resolve the problem. I was trying to use my Iphone to upload video, & they kept freezing. I kept trying to re-upload & after a few days one of them finally worked out of the blue 🤷 how though; or what I did different; Sry I’m not helpful

  • CP21403 CP2140 (@CP21403) reported

    @Shandros1 @Waqqed1 I agree. Did something happened that like caused you to lose interest? Or was it something to do with irl problems or constant writers block? Also as someone who has never used Dropbox; How do we access all your content? Do we have to have a preexisting account?

  • Jackmanraps Jackman Raps (@Jackmanraps) reported

    @HackeyOG Dropbox has never game me any problems

  • StationryBandit Thea Don-Siemion (@StationryBandit) reported

    @danwaterfield I tried sending as plain text and a dropbox link to hi@... seems to be down though.

  • PhigSpin In Bob We Trust (@PhigSpin) reported

    @_mbanana @darkrabite If you can't revoke access reliably (thereby rendering their local pw storage a moot issue) then you've already lost anyway. For plaintext it depends what the access/sensitivity is. SQL db pw just chilling in some code on share is pretty egregious, but some Dropbox for docs no.

  • krcraycraft Ken Craycraft (@krcraycraft) reported

    @SeanTrende Dropbox and iCloud solve all problems.

  • nfagerlund Motor Sprite (@nfagerlund) reported

    @DropboxSupport Hmm, I think we're talking past each other here. It looks like you're trying to debug micro-issues with the aggressive and constant upsell flow, but my problems with it are fundamental and can only be resolved by Product, not Support. Have a lovely day!

  • mostly10 nell; (@mostly10) reported

    .@Dropbox: u need to verify you're over 16 me: *tries* dropbox: nah not like that. here's our homepage! me: how? db: not telling: here's our homepage again! me: *chats with customer service* how do I verify my age? cs: ID or driver's license me: ok *send* db: connection issue!

  • Sexyhannah7 Sexy_hannah (@Sexyhannah7) reported

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

  • KijitDesai Kijit (@KijitDesai) reported

    @USAndIndia Why are there no Dropbox appointments available for H1B workers. We cannot go back to India to get a new Visa for re-entry or exit USA and travel anywhere. Please open up more appointments. It’s a bit ridiculous that there only limited number of login attempts.

  • LukeExists Luke (@LukeExists) reported

    @jeffgerstmann CNN+ stands for CNN + anything else they have on their Dropbox server.

  • hiks_james James Hiks (@hiks_james) reported

    @Dropbox the fact that I have to have equal storage space for a shared folder is absurd. The file is stored in one location on your server and I am just working with it. This is going to drive customers away.

  • Maggie1715 Margaret Thomas (@Maggie1715) reported

    @Dropbox so the less contact with people you have now you wont miss it when your locked down by the NWO

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

    @jordansissel Yeah. The file store landscape is getting pretty bad. Dropbox is so far down the path of investment induced scope creep it’s almost unusable :(

  • ScottPatterson0 Scott Patterson🧺🚀🌙 (@ScottPatterson0) reported

    @martymadrid I sort of agree and disagree. Dropbox is a terrible example. Companies have to continue to grow post IPO. Snowflake seems to be a good example so far as it’s sitting at near the same price of its IPO pop. Any company that IPOs and then stops innovating is going to loose value

  • GlennWhite1 Mitt🧤Romney is a Hologram (@GlennWhite1) reported

    @jellen805 AZ voters are P_ _sies. They better get it together and. force their Reps to fix the transportation/chain of custody/dropbox/signature issues w/emergency legislation. like they did the other day when they tried to kill the precinct strategy. CA voters are P_ _sies but I admit it

  • ClaytonBurnsPhD Clayton Burns (@ClaytonBurnsPhD) reported

    @GeorgeNDP Terrible communication. Learn how to write for Twitter. Learn an information cycle of type of Gmail-Google-Word-Dropbox-Discord-Twitter. Ask that all government comms internalize such a cycle. I give low marks to loose, tacked together, discursive statements.

  • linkmic linkmic (@linkmic) reported

    @Dropbox forcibly ousting paying customers? Kids accts locked out of Family Plan. Under 16 and had to enter ages today. 48hrs to download files or loose all school work. Cannot get support from @DropboxSupport. Pointless product, terrible service & waste of money. Expect refund.

  • QRemedyResearch QRR (@QRemedyResearch) reported

    @EliotTheAnxious Oh that's a clever idea, and I really do like being able to scroll down a page and see all my pics. I already have a WP site for this project so I could use that, and it also doubles as a cloud backup (tho I do already use Dropbox for that, but double backups never hurt anyone).

  • amyworldalive Amy Holden BSc (hons) Psych. MBPS. (@amyworldalive) reported

    We had a mass deletion event in our #Dropbox server by an un unknown IP address on the weekend when the staff could not use their computers bc they were at work. Is there a security breech?

  • Ciudecca Ciudecca (@Ciudecca) reported

    @ritzzcar How did you manage to get there without the dropbox glitch? Didn’t they patch that?

  • ott_max Max Ott (@ott_max) reported

    This is happening more and more on different Macs. Do you still focus on your core product/functionality? Looks like you are going the same route as @Dropbox Always been a huge fan of @1Password because it simply worked. Nowadays it's more and more unreliable, slow, laggy... -.-

  • teddymars_ Teddy Stuart (@teddymars_) reported

    @DannyDaze @imdurante You first make sure the session is all local (not cloud) and then record locally, onto your external drive. That gets uploaded to Dropbox but you can shut down the app while working, open it again when done to upload changes / new recordings.

  • teddymars_ Teddy Stuart (@teddymars_) reported

    @imdurante @DannyDaze this. Technically they don’t recc but it’s fine, just don’t unplug that hard drive. Even then no big deal. Then learn how to set some folders to “local” and some to “online only” - per machine. Quit Dropbox while working if slow. It’s life changing once you understand it all!

  • teddymars_ Teddy Stuart (@teddymars_) reported

    @DannyDaze @imdurante And send people anything at anytime, from your phone or computer, without ever manually uploading or downloading anything. Once you get used to how Dropbox works you won’t be slowing your computer down at all.

  • IanSommerville Ian Sommerville (@IanSommerville) reported

    @DropboxSupport I know enough to fix the problem myself, which occurred because lots of deleted images were kept. But lots of users don’t know what a cache is and wouldn’t do this. Failing to have a sensible limit on cache size is poor design.

  • luisbq_ Luis BQ (@luisbq_) reported

    My week until now. Student 1, Monday: our data is fixed. Student 2, Tuesday: our IV has an issue. Me, Monday: I fixed my code Me, Wednesday: I broke the code that I thought I fixed. Dropbox, Thursday: saves me at 8:59 pm. 🙃

  • VirginiaWeb Virginia (@VirginiaWeb) reported

    @DropboxSupport When I downloaded your file directly from your website today a norton antivirus scan said the download was a new file this week and had a small number of users. Did you update your download today or this week? If not you have likely been hacked. Now many things are not working.

  • RichMcGonigle Rich McGonigle (@RichMcGonigle) reported

    Problem: I have a collection of long-length mp3s (3+ hours) that I need to be able to play on iOS in some type of podcast app, but I need to upload them somewhere (dropbox most likely) and the most critical part - progress needs to be saved while listening. Any ideas?

  • mehtasdeepak Deepak Mehta (@mehtasdeepak) reported

    When Drew Houston boarded a bus from Boston to New York and discovered that he had—yet again—forgotten to bring his thumb drive, he was frustrated. So frustrated that he sat down and began writing the first lines of code of what would eventually become Dropbox.
