  • MikeTheObserver Michael Eng (@MikeTheObserver) reported

    @DropboxSupport Same issue in Florida. Files not uploading/downloading and just stuck in sync limbo. Mac app.

  • ayangie angie (@ayangie) reported

    @DropboxSupport Hi there! I'm having issues to download and upload files too. What's going on? :(

  • jm_veras jmveras (@jm_veras) reported

    @DropboxSupport The error occurs with both

  • Mografi_Joe Joe 🎃 Jenny LeClue ( Switch, Apple Arcade, PC ) (@Mografi_Joe) reported

    @DropboxSupport @AllanM88 I'm having this same issue, both with the desktop app and website. I've never had it be this slow on my connection before. Something is definitely wrong.

  • AllanM88 Allan M (@AllanM88) reported

    @DropboxSupport From the web. I’ve tried using different browsers (chrome, safari, and Firefox) and experience the same issue. I can download files from another cloud service fine, it’s only Dropbox that I’m having this issue with.

  • PeteRambles Peter Linares (@PeteRambles) reported

    @DropboxSupport I cannot Direct Download anything on the latest versions of Chrome or Firefox for Mac. Every download fails. Already cleared cache and cookies and gone incognito. Not working.

  • ayangie angie (@ayangie) reported

    @DropboxSupport I don't receive any error message, but I can't sync anything, not even a small photograph. It's like there is a bad connection but my internet is working fine. Other colleagues are having the same issue

  • LivandTorBFF LIV & TOR BFF (@LivandTorBFF) reported

    @asassano @DropboxSupport I am also having this issue

  • m_i_c_h_a_r Micha R████ 💉💉👍🏻 (@m_i_c_h_a_r) reported

    @originalesushi Thanks for this, I thought I was alone in this. Companies like Google, Microsoft and Dropbox have been doing that for years, but the do it mainly server-side. I wonder if consumers know that their 1 TB of "free" OneDrive data isn't end-to-end encrypted.

  • AllanM88 Allan M (@AllanM88) reported

    @DropboxSupport The only error I’m getting is when it ‘Times Out’ and chrome just says, “Failed - Network Error”.

  • vitorscarpato vitor oʇɐdɹɐɔs (@vitorscarpato) reported

    @holasoymonki @DropboxSupport Sabe problem here! Really slow sync in the desktop app or downloading files on the web since the beginning of the day. Heeeeelp!

  • holasoymonki Santiago (@holasoymonki) reported

    @DropboxSupport Hi! Dropbox is working really slow today (not working) me and my team cannot work today since the day started.

  • jm_veras jmveras (@jm_veras) reported

    @DropboxSupport My internet works fine and the problem is only with dropbox service

  • CyanWaves Sebastian Marín (@CyanWaves) reported

    @DropboxSupport Hi! We don't use the mobile app. Only stock Windows Defender. Already rebooted system and router. Non-synced files from different accounts sent by clients won't download on browser either (network error). I can see the to-be-synced file list in the app, but it's stuck syncing.

  • parroyoleon Pablo (@parroyoleon) reported

    @DropboxSupport not being able to download files, having trouble accessing files on web. My colleagues are having trouble too. Is the service down?

  • alivingtribute A Living Tribute (@alivingtribute) reported

    @asassano @DropboxSupport Our team is currently having the same issue across multiple office locations.

  • scottyboiii_ Scott Foltz (@scottyboiii_) reported

    @DropboxSupport There’s nothing I can do to fix failing downloads on my company’s Dropbox account. Files ranging from 40mb to 4gb fail to accrue 300kb before failing

  • CunadaNuera EME-encubierta (@CunadaNuera) reported

    @DropboxSupport @neujunior Not working at all! It takes forever to download!

  • dgoldwas Dan Goldwasser (@dgoldwas) reported

    Dropbox seems broken..... <sigh> Mondays.

  • ReinholdSag Reinhold Sagastume (@ReinholdSag) reported

    @DropboxSupport Reporting the same issue as all previous replies. The download rate is under 20kb per second, and after a few minutes downloading i got a network error. My connection is fine, i'm syncing and downloading files with google drive without any problem.

  • christianalilly Christiana Lilly (@christianalilly) reported

    @AllanM88 @Dropbox I am having the same issue, a 40mg folder is estimating 20-40 minutes to download

  • 8bitpxl Tom Orden (@8bitpxl) reported

    @Mografi_Joe At 1st I thought this was OneDrive as I switched to them recently from Dropbox. OneDrive has been very slow compared to Dropbox for me. But looks like no one can escape the upload blackhole.

  • Cholde Cholde. (@Cholde) reported

    @DropboxSupport I have the same issues like @jm_veras and @BlazarX24. My internet is fine but I’m trying to download files from DB and the server fail.

  • jm_veras jmveras (@jm_veras) reported

    @DropboxSupport Yes. The problem is the same for all the alternatives that you mention

  • jm_veras jmveras (@jm_veras) reported

    @raquelmarini_ @DropboxSupport Facing the same kind of problems here

  • jm_veras jmveras (@jm_veras) reported

    @DropboxSupport It seems that you're facing an issue with download and upload speed worldwide. We're having serious problems with it and with a lot work to do.

  • casainthehouse Rafael Casagrande (@casainthehouse) reported

    @DropboxSupport any ETA on normalizing the upload/download issue? I have 500gb waiting to sync and need them online for my team ASAP. Can you give me a little help? 😢 using dropbox windows v128.4.2870

  • LivandTorBFF LIV & TOR BFF (@LivandTorBFF) reported

    @DropboxSupport Hi @DropboxSupport, I was having issues with downloading from the site and also desktop was syncing thousands of files saying it would take hours. It was working fine this past Friday. I uninstalled the app and now I cannot reinstall due to a failed network error.
