Dropbox Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • Ubeemic01 Ubeemic (@Ubeemic01) reported

    What is NeoFS on the Neo Blockchain? It’s a decentralized cloud storage system that runs on the Neo Blockchain. Think Dropbox, but with blockchain-powered security, transparency, and no central server.

  • fragermk Mike Frager ⧉ (@fragermk) reported

    Before @Apple does AI, they need to fix iCloud file sync and improve their developer documentation. Just buy @dropbox and spend $1B on tech docs, it will be worth it. cc:@tim_cook

  • crest_of_will Crest_of_Will (@crest_of_will) reported

    @TasisHomeos Dropbox link not working.

  • ohmercy_me Mercedes Lynn (@ohmercy_me) reported

    @DropboxSupport Having DB issues all morning. It won’t sync and I can’t download anything. No outages are reported… what’s up? Please help.

  • Chrissy100111 Christina Wallace (@Chrissy100111) reported

    @DropboxSupport Thank you so much, Jimmy is sorting the problem which turned out to be due to fraud. I am sorry your company has been scammed and thank you for being so kind to me.

  • Frank_Tmn Frank_thtm (@Frank_Tmn) reported

    @Gam_The_Rappa Alternally you can upload it on gamebana or separetly on your own throgh Google drive, dropbox or similar storage services. About the server hiccups, no idea what is happening. But at least is slowly recovering.

  • BChrisPhotos Brian Christopher (@BChrisPhotos) reported

    @DropboxSupport Cannot export image files to any of my android mobile devices. Been this way at least since late morning and still does not function. Error 'export malfunction' pop-up bubble displays.

  • algrarys algrary (@algrarys) reported

    What is @irys_xyz ? Imagine you're trying to save a photo or video online forever, but you don’t want it to disappear if a company (like Instagram or Dropbox) goes down or censors you. That’s where Irys (formerly Arweave) comes in Irys in Simple Terms: 1. Permanent Storage (Like a Blockchain for Files) - Normally, when you upload something to the internet, it can get deleted (RIP your old MySpace pics). - Irys stores data forever, like a digital time capsule using blockchain tech. 2. Pay Once, Store Forever - Instead of monthly fees (like Google Drive), you pay a small one-time fee, and your files stay online permanently. 3. No Censorship - Governments or companies can’t easily take down what you store on Irys. - Great for artists, journalists, and meme lords who want their work to last. 4. Used by Crypto & Web3 Projects - Many NFT projects (like Solana’s Metaplex) use Irys to store images & metadata so they don’t vanish. Why Should You Care? - For normies: Backup important stuff (family photos, creative work) forever. - For crypto users: Store NFT art, website data, or even entire apps (dApps) without relying on Amazon or Google. Think of it like an immortal USB stick that lives on the internet. 🔥 (P.S. It used to be called Arweave, but now it’s Irys, same tech, new name)

    You see….. iCloud and Dropbox will fail you sometimes… get yourself a server!

  • TallShepherd Jack | 𝔗𝔞𝔩𝔩𝔖𝔥𝔢𝔭𝔥𝔢𝔯𝔡 (@TallShepherd) reported

    Dropbox lately has been horrifically slow, it's so frustrating waiting 30 seconds for a folder to open. Localised just to dropbox, it's weird.

  • awesomepatel_ Awesome 🇺🇸 (@awesomepatel_) reported

    @signulll tension is good, not having tension is bad. hacker news is great for spiteful drive for a woke now. dropbox was shot down as a ****** idea on hacker news and look how that turned out

  • Proton_Pass Proton Pass (@Proton_Pass) reported

    Dropbox Passwords will be fully discontinued on October 28, 2025. - Aug 28: Your passwords go view-only; autofill stops - Sept 11: Mobile app shuts down - Oct 28: All saved logins and payment data are deleted permanently. If you're using Dropbox for passwords, take note. 3/6

  • onelegbrynn Brynn Jade 🏳️‍🌈 (@onelegbrynn) reported

    @mikeawesomemike I haven’t used many site builders but only things that come to mind are Wix, SquareSpace and Wordpress. You could always use Dropbox or Google Drive for file hosting if those options aren’t built in to any of the site builders. Or create an FTP server.

  • betablacklotus betablacklotus (@betablacklotus) reported

    @ingevonagassiz FTP is like a private version of DropBox or WeTransfer. If you have a web hosting plan, it may include storage space on an FTP server. May require a special app like FileZilla. I'm just paranoid, I have lost actual work projects in the past so now I overcompensate.

  • grok Grok (@grok) reported

    Videos from Grok Imagine are often large MP4 files, exceeding MMS limits (typically 1-5MB). Try compressing: On iPhone, use iMovie or apps like Video Compressor. On Android, use Video Compressor app. Alternatively, share via WhatsApp, email, or upload to YouTube/Dropbox and send the link. If issues persist, check file format and carrier limits.

  • giulio_mattioli Giulio Mattioli (@giulio_mattioli) reported

    @zwergy2 Yeah but I guess those states have no problem using dropbox?

  • BoGardiner1 Bo Gardiner (@BoGardiner1) reported

    I looked it for it on my Dropbox and it turns out I deleted it when I was trying to create space. I thought if it got taken down on YouTube, it would still be there, just not visible. But it's gone. And it was viral. It had, I believe, hundreds of thousands of likes. Thousands of comments. It was there ever since the movie came out, then suddenly a couple weeks ago they did this. And it's so wrong. It was absolutely fair use, with humorous captions. But if I lose the appeal, I could face huge legal fees. The *******.

  • Patrick_Lung Patrick | Megapot (@Patrick_Lung) reported

    My take is gas cost doesn't matter anymore Blockspace on @base will keep growing in availability, just like storage. I remember grinding Dropbox referrals for 250 MB each. Now, we shut down discussion about gas cost for a feature that grows gas by 20-40k (+10%) per ticket

  • mattlogical MM (@mattlogical) reported from Los Angeles, California

    @JohnnieKnuckles @Brandon62294232 @joseelives1 But anyways, not a peep about any of that no issue with a Dropbox for a county of 5000 people, drop it off, add at it. Enjoy no lineups. But they lie about the cities.And the drop boxes in the cities.They lie their f****** a**** off.

  • shroud_wife ✧・゚ mel (@shroud_wife) reported

    @Sovi_Tania Honestly I regularly upload movies and tv shows for my friend and there's never been any issues but if drive doesn't work then ill use dropbox 🫡

  • EngineeredEV EV (@EngineeredEV) reported

    @Jaydeandre @KevAmori lol Google saved the day cause it definitely solved my issue. i was about to upload that document to Dropbox or somethin lmao.

  • AnGaelBeag Doll Éireann ᚋᚐᚔᚏᚓᚐᚇ (@AnGaelBeag) reported

    @garfarkle1 Back up your files and password/login information to a USB key before you send it away or better still create a Dropbox account and upload all your important stuff to the cloud

  • eeko_systems eeko systems | ai for business (@eeko_systems) reported

    @RhysSullivan I just set up auth tokens in vertex, OpenAi, anthropic, google drive, Dropbox, and one drive and I never want to track down an api again

  • hasaansaikat Hasan Saikat (@hasaansaikat) reported

    @googledrive Hey Why you are so slow than @Dropbox . Also eat a lot of RAM. Total trash. Very Slow. Build something smooth like @Dropbox .

  • SamBingaMusic YBYB aka YA BWOI YUNG BINGLES (@SamBingaMusic) reported

    anyone else having trouble DLing from Dropbox on Safari?

  • TN_20_ @tommasonardellart.bsky.social🦋 (@TN_20_) reported

    @Luhhunda2Brain It's a painstakingly slow process but I am using Dropbox as a "middle man" to copy the files in groups of 30 from my tablet to my pc

  • grootypatooty I am Grooty Patooty (@grootypatooty) reported

    Google Drive. Dropbox. AWS. They're built for convenience But not for permanence If you stop paying, you stop owning If they go down, so does your data If they say no, that’s the end of the story

  • EquivCorgi827 Mike Kretsch (@EquivCorgi827) reported

    @RightPulseNewss Of course its espionage. Espionage is her stock in trade. The offsite server was an espionage dropbox, sharing American secrets to ANYONE who paid the fee which allowed them surfing access. If you seek, you will find. But hey, I'm probably just a conspiracy theorist.

  • AcePunkAuthor Socially Awkward Fangirl❤️‍🔥 (@AcePunkAuthor) reported

    Does anyone else have trouble with dropbox today? For some reason it doesn't load anymore. Usually works fine. I'm frustrated. 😫
