  • insertdisktwo Insert Disk Two (@insertdisktwo) reported

    @DarthChillash Well yes of all you need something simple like browsing it does the job. But for example, I had issues with trying to install Dropbox on it, whichever distro I try, it wouldn't work. And it shouldn't be rocket science :)

  • enlightnforward Ram (@enlightnforward) reported

    @SpeakSamuel @USAndIndia We all are non-immigrants coming to work, we pay our fair share of fees, dropbox system has been broken down, due to huge #GCbacklogs same fees in other countries the waitimes have come down for others this year but not for India @USAndIndia takes no action.

  • BrianBurnbomb Brian Birnbaum (@BrianBurnbomb) reported

    @RawBooty2 @BojanYVR Again, it won’t stop long term performance. Take Dropbox for example. At some point they’ll own half the float and/or issue a 50% dividend in a few years if people don’t start bidding up the stock. But for the short term, it’s frustrating to say the least.

  • rikimae RikitheCanuckistani (@rikimae) reported

    @SocialSciNerd my school had a Dropbox type system to upload assignments to. The majority of instructors preferred it that way. MS 365 was offered free to all students, so it wasn't a problem to type it up in Word, then upload

  • drjulie_b Dr Julie Blommaert (@drjulie_b) reported

    Well after some troubleshooting, my machine seems to have misplaced the directory I was working in but it is still on dropbox, but there seems to be no way to make them resolve this between each other I think this is next-week Julie's problem

  • Angelba01031927 Angel baby (@Angelba01031927) reported

    Any last minute buyers I’ll drop my Dropbox down to 20$ for the next two people I’m about to fall asleep #sellingcontent #buyingcontent #nsfwtwt

  • jmarshallnz Jonathan Marshall (@jmarshallnz) reported

    @zentree @drjulie_b Yeah, it happens if Dropbox happens to be in Documents, which is then on a roaming profile. Been happening at Massey for 4-5 years now, and I've updated/troubleshooted pandoc for that time, but all their fixes still leave it broken.

  • cpltalk (((cpltalk))) (@cpltalk) reported

    Turns out the reason for @dropbox's "can't move" is that the file names are identical. Any chance that the fact could use that for producing a meaningful error message? I'd think that's covered in Programming 101.

  • Redveee ⚫ Redvee (@Redveee) reported

    @gfaz81 Think there's a recovery mode, or that might be Dropbox. Google should help find a solution to their problem.

  • keelungking KLK (@keelungking) reported

    @DropboxSupport Hi, hope u can solve my problem😭😭😭 I use desktop app of MacOS, and recently I found it keep deleting my files which were stored in Dropbox automatically!!! Unfortunately, I already empty my Trash several times...I didn't check the files and just empty it...

  • Heijningen Heijningen (@Heijningen) reported

    @DropboxSupport Done, same issue, i have the 3TB plan

  • benbawan Benjamin Wolf 🇺🇦 (@benbawan) reported

    @altini_marco Hey Marco! We're using your cool HRV Logger app. The tracking works perfectly, but for some reason, the app doesn't upload the files to Dropbox nor to our phone. It says it does/did, but the files are not there. Any advice what could be the issue?

  • Peterveter13 Peter13 (@Peterveter13) reported

    @run4gear @MauroQueiros It is not possible z o connect to runalyze error whe accessing. Also not to dropbox, can not enter numbers.

  • gapingmaws Videosyncrasy (@gapingmaws) reported

    I used to have thousands of tumblr drafts, because it was more convenient than using google or a dropbox for transferring images between devices, but then someone pointed out i can just make my own discord server

  • jmarshallnz Jonathan Marshall (@jmarshallnz) reported

    @drjulie_b @EmRstats It's a windows only problem, yeah. I don't think it's necessarily storing in Dropbox, it's that the Dropbox folder is possibly in "Documents" or similar, which is possibly mapped to a network drive?

  • DropboxSupport Dropbox Support (@DropboxSupport) reported

    @prodbyphilthy Have you had the chance to clear your Dropbox app cache, uninstall, reboot and then reinstall the Dropbox app, just to see if the issue persists?

  • prodbyphilthy philthy (@prodbyphilthy) reported

    @DropboxSupport i have the most recent version of the app and i’m running ios 15.3. it happens with all .wav and .mp3 files. The next button also doesn’t work when you’re outside of the app, if you click the arrows nothing happens. it’s very frustrating, and it’s not just me having this issue

  • prodbyphilthy philthy (@prodbyphilthy) reported

    @DropboxSupport yep, i have tried that. i can replicate it on any iphone with the most recent version of the app, i have seen it happen on 5 other phones personally, so it’s not just an individual issue, it’s an issue with the actual app

  • petrkout Petr Kout (@petrkout) reported

    I think I am going to give @Dropbox two more weeks to fix the MacOS Monterey problem before I cancel my paid plan and move to Google Drive or another alternative.

  • Angelba01031927 Angel baby (@Angelba01031927) reported

    Any last sales before I go to sleep I’ll drop my Dropbox down to 20$ for the next two buyers #buyingcontent

  • CasterRaster RasterCaster (@CasterRaster) reported

    @HAWTToys While parents get put on a FBI watchlist for just having issue with a school board, guys like these go ignored. I bet his laptop would make ICAC throw alarms if he synced to Dropbox.

  • ex_nerd Chris (@ex_nerd) reported

    @repkord Cloud sync is not a backup solution, even in the best case. They don't have SLAs, deleted-item protection, etc. I use Dropbox+Synology for sync, and Backblaze(desktop)+Crashplan(server+NAS) for backup.

  • nmnvzr Nathan (@nmnvzr) reported

    @DropboxSupport I'm not reporting a bug or error. I'm noticing a trend in installer development.

  • Burnhous burnhous (@Burnhous) reported

    @elonmusk Talking about Twitter functionality... the Edit option would be great but only if the tweet would be marked as edited and anyone can view previous versions, like on Dropbox or Sharepoint. Would be nice to be able to fix embarrassing spelling mstajes

  • av4ntae kai/ art comms open (@av4ntae) reported

    sometimes i think abt my edits and how theyre now all lost in my old laptop that i cannot fix..... i only uploaded my (even older) edits to dropbox but not the ones from 2019-2020, those were the best ones ugh

  • Rocqui_Balboa Bayou some Business (@Rocqui_Balboa) reported

    @ReignOfApril You’re supposed to be able to; however, I’ve had an issue. I’d delete it from my phone and then it’s deleted from the cloud once I backup. I ended up downloading the Dropbox app, and saving all of my photos there as a back up.

  • zentree Luis Apiolaza ∫🍃dx =🌳 (@zentree) reported

    @jmarshallnz @drjulie_b We had the same problem with students working in some of the university's network drives. Personally, I've never had it in Dropbox.

  • RaquaoRoheline Scrimblo Simp ⬛🌫⬜🟪🔞 (@RaquaoRoheline) reported

    @LipidLounger People usually use a file hosting service like google drive or dropbox You could also upload the image to a private discord server/channel too and link the image url

  • drjulie_b Dr Julie Blommaert (@drjulie_b) reported

    @jmarshallnz My rmd file is in a local Dropbox folder, is that likely to cause my problems?

  • GodFadr Fred Rewey (@GodFadr) reported

    @Dropbox Can someone look into Ticket #16602082? Over 48 hours with only two responses. This is a critical company issue that we need to address. Can someone get on a phone call?
