  • vonJoedenForgey 🌹Elisa von Joeden-Forgey, PhD (@vonJoedenForgey) reported

    As director of the graduate program, I found a series of graphic **** picks and other pornographic images on a program dropbox in October 2016 where we were collecting photos of a trip to be sent to students. I reported them to my dean, who said "so what's the problem"? 3/

    @DropboxSupport I've been trying to add 1TB add-on to my existing plus plan and can't get over the error: Please update your payment method to perform this action. Tried adding all possible payment methods I've got, just doesn't help.

  • mczaya84 Murat Cakmak (@mczaya84) reported

    Your system is so slow, even if you choose an option in a dropbox, you have wait for 10s of seconds It is the digital age, and your system must respond to even millions of requests.

    @grantstern @mhildreth @JDVance1 Can't download....DropBox link is dead/error

  • FabianTeeF FabijTee (@FabianTeeF) reported

    For a couple of days the #ynab classic android app (yes, i still use classic) has stopped syncing. In the logs there are a lot of SSL verification errors with dropbox in the stacktraces. *sigh* Looks like I have to look for another alternative.

  • CaseyChesh Casey Cheshire (@CaseyChesh) reported

    .@HelloSign @Dropbox imagine receiving an email encouraging you to use the tool only to realize it's a "no-reply" when you encounter an issue...

  • chimmy77 Votey McVoteface 🌻 (@chimmy77) reported

    @GlennF Sometimes it's not a person but a system, of course. Had a big Dropbox sync fail yesterday, but no error message or anything to signal the failure other that files I needed today were missing.

  • djcelrock Celeste, AKA DJ Celrock ®™ (@djcelrock) reported

    I sadly, cannot reproduce @morning_song’s issues with Backpack Studio. I was able to import my music from Dropbox just fine.

  • Maksymi50632134 Maksymilian (@Maksymi50632134) reported

    @_TechUnited @TeamYouTube to hack your email inbox, it is, after all, the key to many other accounts: Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, LinkedIna, Allegro, OLX, online stores, DropBox, Amazon, GitHub; will shut down access to Microsoft 365 and Office applications, including OneDrive, where they store a copy

  • DennyZ25153949 DennyZ (@DennyZ25153949) reported

    @brahmresnik @azcentral Take it down to the copy center, make a few dozen copies on heavy paper, change the names, and find a Mule to deliver them to a dropbox!

  • technolass Caroline Toews (@technolass) reported

    There! I've got Tweesecake up and running on my laptop. I ended up having to start completely from scratch though because I didn't make sure that the folder had copied to my Dropbox before shutting down this morning. But, now I think I've got what I need working on this system.

  • radexp Radek Pietruszewski (@radexp) reported

    It also doesn’t appear to have the sort of unique bandwidth/storage issues that inspired Backblaze, Dropbox, Netflix to make custom hardware

  • nomsyii Onome (@nomsyii) reported

    Some of you really sat down and hijacked dates for this Dropbox.

  • bats1234 Slightly Smarter Than My Thermostat (@bats1234) reported

    @ptpower I've had external drive connection problems in the past too. Not recently though. But worse, I've had backup software crap out (microsoft's and the drivemaker's) and I've gone months without noticing. I'm relying on Dropbox now, both for reliability and offsite storage.

  • HornyDuck9 Horny Duck (@HornyDuck9) reported

    @realLizUSA I watched that interview and she was a terrible guest because she never explained specifically what the dropbox scam was. She spoke in generalities.

  • GlennMagerman Glenn Magerman (@GlennMagerman) reported

    Environment: (i) Dropbox: as a container for all project info, (ii) progs: Stata, Python, R, (iii) GUI: Visual Studio Code, (iv) version control and publishing: Github. There might be links to my research server at the university (Linux on HPDA cluster) (2/3)

  • gtrxman GTRxMan 🇺🇸 🇮🇹 🇵🇱 (@gtrxman) reported

    @GDebatta @Apple I know it's not a real solution to the problem but Dropbox lets you backup your photos on Android. Might be worth a try.

  • GiulianoOrla Giuliano Orlandi (@GiulianoOrla) reported

    @DropboxSupport My account is disabled, what can I do to fix the problem? please

  • tisoy52 luis sierra (@tisoy52) reported

    @GiulianoOrla @DropboxSupport Message @TimmsHon now to fix your account immediately

  • Dawkness92 Sir Dawkness (@Dawkness92) reported

    @UltraNstinctz @ShayonBurman My issues is that playing games online was free on PS3 and that now if you want to play old playstation games it’s at a cost. Literally making us pay for a pseudo backwards compatibility. Most companies make you pay for cloud storage anyway, google, apple, dropbox so idc.

  • AliceNWells Alice Wells: Official (@AliceNWells) reported

    @FlairandSynch @fadeinsoftware one of the best thing is that it works on mobile phone too and cloud so you can save to gdrive or dropbox, etc and take it with you and then resync to the cloud and then back to your computer! my writing partner have been using it for months and have never had an issue.

  • GlennMagerman Glenn Magerman (@GlennMagerman) reported

    @fabrizioleone93 interesting thanks - I'm mostly either on desktop or connected. One issue I have with dropbox is that all traffic counts as internet traffic, even if at home. An alternative might be a NAS (which I have at home), but then there is less collaboration possible (different standards)

  • timhayward 🍞🍞Tim Hayward🍞🍞 (@timhayward) reported

    Right now, I’m trying to back up my Scrivener files to Dropbox so work on them from my iPad. Dropbox won’t let me backup, it’s having a sulk, because part of my Documents folder once had a thing with CreativeCloud. If it ever gets past the first error message, it’s going..

  • nycki96 Nicki (@nycki96) reported

    @angelgirl1976 @kjw810 @RobertDocWright I can put what I have into dropbox for you and you can see if it’s better. it has a few errors, but over all, it’s good and no there are’nt notes in it.

  • samuelsharpuk Samuel Sharp (@samuelsharpuk) reported

    Anyone else seeing errors when creating @Bitly links like "Warning: This URL has been blocked by Bitly's systems as potentially harmful." Never had this before, and all of my links are legit - most are links to a @Dropbox folder with my own content in (pdfs, audio, pics etc)

  • PurpleCityCo Purple City (@PurpleCityCo) reported

    @DropboxSupport Since last update I can no longer save any file I'm working on in Dropbox. I have to save a new copy. I sync my work folder to Dropbox & regularly save as I work. Hugely impractical to have more than 50 incremental save files per project. Any plans to fix this?

  • Rabbie100 Rabbie (@Rabbie100) reported

    @cleoabram @ColinandSamir Hello Cleo, I have an idea or ideas for your 'Huge If True', but I am having trouble establishing communications with you. I am a technologist. I do not use dropbox, contact me privately on Twitter please. I hope I get a response from you.

  • jeffleetdesign Jeff Leet (@jeffleetdesign) reported

    @Dropbox You're killing me with this " 1 second left" it's been 30 minutes. Anyone know how to fix this and get these files uploaded?

  • timhayward 🍞🍞Tim Hayward🍞🍞 (@timhayward) reported

    @ScrivenerApp I know I can back up. My problem is that i can only successfully synch by setting up Dropbox… which is attempting to take over all my backup requirements for my entire system and is thus… crap.
