    @SimpXO If it’s good, I’d switch the file to a different hard drive, if it can transfer away and back, it’s not a hardware issue, if those work, I’d try a different cloud service such as Dropbox or one drive. If you really want google drive, transfer to phone and upload that way… 2/2

  • Amuly21 Amuly (she/he) (@Amuly21) reported

    EXCUSE ME since when did dropbox drop down from 10 free gigs to 2????? Did that happen literally this month? Mother ****

  • EmilySaladino Emily Saladino (@EmilySaladino) reported

    no YOU need to validate your dropbox login

  • RudolfKremers Rudolf Kremers (@RudolfKremers) reported

    @gnomeslair Yeah I do that by saving my #scrivener files in dropbox, and just working on those synced files. My biggest need is for when I am out and about, running, on a random non-writing mission, etc. Need to note down stuff quickly before it disappears.

  • CubeyCubed Cubey3 (@CubeyCubed) reported

    @SmokeyStack_ @TheMisterEpicYT Its good for its intended use, but its a terrible site to host downloads to stuff. Which sadly some people choose to host their stuff on github rather than something like dropbox which is annoying

  • loriemerson Lori Emerson (@loriemerson) reported

    @therourke the problem seems to be that I can make automatic back ups from my computer to Dropbox but can't share the back up with anyone. if I store the files on dropbox, I can't automatically back up to my computer or an external HD...I don't think? I might be totally wrong!

  • Callaginn Stephen Ginn (@Callaginn) reported

    @DropboxSupport Thanks, but reading about changes that already happened does not fix anything. The point is, stuff like this should NEVER happen, because the power users that depend on Dropbox don't need to be held up by Dropbox resyncing everything for days.

  • SeveroOjea Severo Ojea (@SeveroOjea) reported

    @DropboxSupport Why is my computer stuck syncing, day 2 with this issue restarted, reinstalled, and even unlinked my computer. Still Stuck

  • paulg Paul Graham (@paulg) reported

    @bgurley @pitdesi Sometimes a crowded market is a sign that there's a real problem and no current solution works sufficiently well. That was the case with Dropbox, for example.

  • Juzza07 Juzza07 (@Juzza07) reported

    My USB with all my client data on it has just fallen out of my wallet and straight down a drain at the Esso Jet Wash, Hinton Admiral. It's never fallen out before (only in wallet if away) let alone down a drain. Fortunately, I have Dropbox (online not a dropped box). But still.

    @haloslhh no wait it was dropbox and the whole app is broken rn 😭😭

  • megaheadphonica '(] •___• [)' (@megaheadphonica) reported

    @WhiRecordings The only issue is buying 100 codes for only 9 to be used. Perhaps a Dropbox download link emailed instead.

  • 7coverlouis elmer (@7coverlouis) reported

    rip to y’all but i saved it to my dropbox before the link went down 😸

  • stridinstrider Chris Strider (@stridinstrider) reported

    so dropbox is down company-wide, huh

  • MrX3RO Mark Hijar (@MrX3RO) reported

    @theresalkrupp I cut 219,658 words down to 99,950. I didn’t get nervous because I put rules and guidelines in place first. Hard decisions were all made while drinking. I’ve still got the beast, chained to a wall in Dropbox somewhere.

  • evilsequel 💚🪚 (@evilsequel) reported

    @astrofroggys yeah i'm trying to download the videos from dropbox though. it's happened three times and i can see the storage going down i hate apple so much

  • Amicus_19 amicus (@Amicus_19) reported

    @kaitoXkid96 @maruchansubs you actually can get stuff taken down on google drive. dropbox doesn't

  • LilyHeaven90 Lily (@LilyHeaven90) reported

    @arylievv The dropbox link is not working.😭

  • daysofspeed daysofspeed (@daysofspeed) reported

    @NeilSummers_ M1 Max, 64GB Ram. No issues aside from Dropbox thinking no M1 compatibility for 2 years is not ***************. Rapid. Can’t comment on battery as mine is perma-docked.

  • gdsbernardo Bernardo Gindri (@gdsbernardo) reported

    @ThePhDPlace And your presentation, please. Almost had a heart attack today when my computer suddenly shut down while I was doing mine. Luckily I had a dropbox backup.

  • GiscardBiamby Giscard Biamby 🇺🇦 (@GiscardBiamby) reported

    @adam42smith @MushtaqBilalPhD @Anita_Salamon_ Yes I'm only syncing the PDF files to Dropbox, via zotfile. I have read about the data dir issues, my mistake for not making that clear

  • faiththefutures bigger than anna🎸 (@faiththefutures) reported

    the dropbox link is cracked but i wanna access and see the content so bad can lthq pls fix it

  • kellan kellan (@kellan) reported

    @mipsytipsy @NeilKNet @thisisaaronland Having tried to create something similar at Dropbox I ran into way more issues than I had expected but one of them that caught me off guard is how much harder it is to build the requisite safety in a purely virtual environment

  • dpaintersound Dustin Painter (@dpaintersound) reported from Ettrick, Virginia

    What are folks using other than @Dropbox for their online file storage and backup? I recorded a live show on Sunday and haven’t been able to upload to the company that contracted me because their Dropbox has been down. Now, mine is down today. I refuse to put up with this.

  • smorspeakz cupid’s advocate (@smorspeakz) reported

    my white coworker (read:nemesis) is always like THIS CANT KEEP HAPPENING when DropBox is down/full + always gets weird abt saving files in Google etc… and atp i think this ***** is just miserable and wants something to be flustered about

  • SeligerGrants Isaac Seliger (@SeligerGrants) reported

    @drewhouston @Dropbox We've been a Dropbox business customer for 10 years, but DB has changed its support system. We have a complex issue. I can't a live escalation team member to call me and the 3 solutions they've offered by email don't work. Any ideas on how to get DB help?

  • Callaginn Stephen Ginn (@Callaginn) reported

    @DropboxSupport And why was this update done on a work-day, versus a weekend? That's equally puzzling IMHO. I've already shut down anything accessing those folders, of course.

  • lostnyourpride bigger than let 👁 (@lostnyourpride) reported

    @ltxcatb THE DROPBOX LTHQ TWEETED BUT ITS DOWN ALREADY

  • codepo8 Chris Heilmann (@codepo8) reported

    I was wondering why this new Mac was slow - Automated Dropbox backup of your Documents folder isn't clever when there are GitHub repos with node_modules folders in there…

  • evilsequel 💚🪚 (@evilsequel) reported

    if u guys have any idea how to find these type of files so i can delete them i'd appreciate it... it's an mp4 i downloaded from dropbox and usually those show up no problem but this one is larger
