Autist Gabriel (@AutistGabriel) reportedDoesn't work properly on Xiaomi phones. Not syncing automatically. Slow syncing anyway. Not possible just click some button for syncing. @DropboxSupport I have 3 Xiaomi phones so I don't think your solution will solve my issue.
-
Daniel Zan Salazar (@ZanQdo) reported@Dropbox The problem with that is I do work on multiple large projects. They fill my Linux machines and can't exactly "desync them" since I'm using them!

OBEY🤍😈🖤 (@Hydrated_Obey) reported@bellaWRLD999 @Nugget_Bean420 No problem leaks r hard to find unless u Google it and get a Dropbox one which downstairs have many or u downloaded them from a website with sus **** lol
-
Clayton Burns (@ClaytonBurnsPhD) reported@keithfrankish Two problems in perception we can’t deal with: inability to collate information, and inability to resolve fine detail. Collation: master Gmail-Google-Word-Dropbox-Twitter research & collation cycle. Fine detail: lyric poetry: Emily Dickinson.
-
CSUDH IT (@CSUDHIT) reportedWe are experiencing service interruption to Dropbox services. Users may not be able to login to Dropbox services at this time. I.T. is actively working to resolve the issue and will provide updates as they become available.

Amanda Beaty (@theamandabeaty) reported@kristenhinkson @unhealthytruth Why would you trust a random website with all your pictures?Upload them to Google Dive, Dropbox, an external hard drive, or all the above. Any website can shut you down or disappear tomorrow.
-
Dyna Moxie (@DynaMoxie) reported@marinamaral2 I believe I read that there's an issue with Dropbox, if you are syncing things saved on an external drive, the drive has to be hooked up and running before the Dropbox app is up and running. Otherwise, the app has to re-sync things in the folders stored on the drive every time.

rieta (@thisisrieta) reported@DropboxSupport The site wasn't loading (Error 500) via Chrome or Safari. It's back up now though. Thanks

Jordi (@ayjblog) reported@marinamaral2 the bandwidth is the issue no dropbox
-
Frank Plunkett (@frankplunkett) reported from Erlton-Ellisburg, New Jersey@Brooke_Criswell @Dropbox I have used physical devices like usb sticks and portable hard drives in the past but had issues with failures and maintenance of a routine. Your plan is only as good as your last backup.If you do stick to the physical route make more than one to protect against loss or failure
-
Drew McCormack (@drewmccormack) reported@PossiblyAlan Agenda license is independent of Apple. Just use your Agenda account to unlock features on each machine. Sync via iCloud requires all macs to use same iCloud sign in. Alternative is to use Dropbox. You can sign in with any Dropbox account, even one different to usual one.
-
President-Elect Paul Johnson (@Transigence) reported@maddoxrules @Dropbox I dropped Dropbox the instant they stopped me from sharing the Christchurch shooter manifesto. I packed up my **** and shut it down on the spot. They've got no business looking at my files.
-
Diane Kinney (@dkinney) reported@NotionHQ I know I’m not alone in this - I’d have your UX people do some deep discovery. I write prolifically and notion is much less usable than Dropbox paper, confluence or even Google doc. There’s a problem with flow.
-
A.D. (@astrid_2) reported@DropboxSupport I've tried to contact via account but that seems impossible. My account has been downgraded due to - apparently- a payment issue. But nothing has changed from last month? To upgrade again is more expensive than what I had.
-
x0 (@x0_1372) reported@tw_blue2 There also appear to be some dropbox conflicted copies of the locale files present in the source, perhaps this is the source of that error.
-
Nick (@nickjsheriff) reported@imcatnoone @Dropbox Dropbox needs to invest in ux design, they have designerd that are strong in ui which isn’t their issue, and very few startups prioritize ux. I spent years running a design firm, taking on multi-billion dollar clients & this was an ongoing theme my entire career!
-
Retro Gaming Comedy Podcast (@frenchpet) reported from Montréal, Quebec@Ashanmaril @TheCoomunist Dropbox switched their app a year or so ago. It has this janky *** "offline file view" that causes sync issues. I lost years worth of backups and only found out out of the recovery scope. I think it can't handle high innode counts so if you got a bunch of small files it acts up

-
Nils Geylen (@nilsgeylen) reportedOne issue is it seems I can change the attachment name to a comprehensible title but not the Dropbox Power-up preview name; that only shows the file name. Another is, I have the option of showing Recents in the attachment interface, but not with the Power-up.
-
Glam Bigfoot Clary (@iloveredrobot) reportedI use Dropbox about once a month and today is the day and it's down. I am going to speak to some pizza about this urgently.
-
J-OneHundred (@JOneHundred) reportedThis issue meant so much to them a few months ago when they clipped a part of my stream out of context.. kept a dropbox of the clips and used them as weapons against them when black people were talking about historic harm to get me permabanned on Twitch...
