    @BigCityLightsUK Looks like you're running the beta version of the Dropbox desktop app. As beta builds are still in the testing process, you could experience some issues or an inconsistent experience. As a first step, we'd advise you to opt out of the early releases via your General tab...1/2

  • ShellFishApp Secure ShellFish (@ShellFishApp) reported

    It is a shared sentiment that SaaS is being adopted because it it more convenient but this is only really true if your software needs are right in the main stream. In a sense cloud storage on iOS isn’t even convenient yet with Dropbox, OneDrive and others not working great.

  • BigCityLightsUK BigCityLightsUK (@BigCityLightsUK) reported

    @DropboxSupport well thanks, but it would be good if you could clearly state it's a beta version beforehand, because it's AWFUL! Way too slow, saying something about indexing, I want some folders local and some online only yet this feels very buggy and complicated. I'm paying €11.99 a month!

  • jacklmg75 Leandro Goncalves (@jacklmg75) reported

    @bouelyan @DropboxSupport The same problem to me. Since June 4th.

  • AnkitTimbadia Ankit Timbadia (@AnkitTimbadia) reported

    @DropboxSupport Yes tried both wifi / mobile Hotspot extremely slow uploads. Was uploading 1.5G zip folder

  • Studioaip Johntaro 🔞🎃 🍑🍆🥕🌶🍌 (@Studioaip) reported

    If you are having issues where some windows applications (dropbox,creative cloud, hwinfo, eventviewer) are just shutting down instantly or breaking and have an Asus videocard. Uninstall Asus GpuTweak II. It is the cause.

  • itsjustbrenno Brenno NLB (@itsjustbrenno) reported

    Can anyone recommend me a similar service to dropbox that isn't drive? Without going into detail, im having issues with Dropbox

  • emilyozsvald Emily Ozsvald (@emilyozsvald) reported

    @andreasbovens direct from my phone. You can set up photo backup when you sign in to the Dropbox app.

  • dipo4life Diëgo Kartodikromo (@dipo4life) reported

    @DropboxSupport Why is it broken after the update? Shouldn't it be working better?

  • dsecareanu Daniel Secareanu (@dsecareanu) reported

    @dharmesh If it’s key based access these tools will fail if the key rights are too lax. For example I had similar issues using a key stored on dropbox vs. the same key stored locally in my .ssh folder. Chmod 400 key might solve it.

  • BigCityLightsUK BigCityLightsUK (@BigCityLightsUK) reported

    @DropboxSupport I now have the none beta version. It's now syncing but only maybe 1 or 2 files a second. Currently saying 4,862 files to go. So the lag continues and while it's syncing, my laptop is super slow. My laptop is cleaned etc so should be working fine.

  • jacklmg75 Leandro Goncalves (@jacklmg75) reported

    @fermello78 @DropboxSupport Same problem, terror, that´s is the word, I fully agree!

  • SwedeEternal Kashou 👑 (@SwedeEternal) reported

    @Free_Lil_Publix No I played multiple games with glaring retarded problems in a row, had to install dropbox which is retarded and can't pick the old dropbox folder as the dropbox folder, my ear hurts, my eyes are irritated, I'm tired, libtards exist etc etc. Do have coffee.

  • lynnskyi Lynn I 🗽 (@lynnskyi) reported

    Really strange. I couldn't access Dropbox integration with Voice Dream Reader all of a sudden. Tried signing out of Dropbox and signing back in. Finally uninstalled VDR and reinstalled. That fixed the problem.

  • daviddlevine David D. Levine (@daviddlevine) reported

    @Taskmator The problem seems to have gone away, but before it did I switched from Dropbox to iCloud. Thanks for checking in!

  • SwedeEternal Kashou 👑 (@SwedeEternal) reported

    >Reinstall dropbox >pick my old dropbox folder "Error: There is already a dropbox folder here" ??? yeah?? I swear I can't take more glaring design faults I'm gonna flip out. @DropboxSupport

  • adachitops assigned bottom at birth (@adachitops) reported

    @Y0ur_B0yfriend i keep trying to download the demo but i keep getting "error 404" on the dropbox website... is there anything i can do?

  • sewneo S.B. Alger 🤓🎸🎤 (@sewneo) reported

    @EarpEmily @OperaVagabond ...it's weird cuz it still opens on my phone. I'm pretty sure that was in the archives/dropbox so it's not like we lost it forever... But yeah. How totally lame and scared 'some people' must be to keep whacking it all down so hard.

  • herebehumans Valerie van Mulukom (@herebehumans) reported

    Anyone else having trouble uploading their slides for #ISPP2021? @PolPsyISPP I never got the Dropbox invite, so I can't meet the deadline of uploading today. Slides are ready!

  • SplatoonExposed Splatoon Animators Exposed but Hey All (@SplatoonExposed) reported

    AnnetteAgent Star Splat EXPOSED for having a Discord server (evidence included on dropbox)

  • Axlazu Axlazu (@Axlazu) reported

    No video today bit of an upload hiccup in dropbox and there's probably not time before work to fix it. I'll throw it up tomorrow at the latest instead

  • xis11858 نواف غزاي المطيري (@xis11858) reported

    @DropboxSupport When I am Trying to sign in it says to me please type the code which is sent to my email and the problem my email is the blocked it is old email !

  • JenniferIHart Jenny Hart (@JenniferIHart) reported

    @alliethinks That smug feeling of knowing you have Dropbox at home and Sharepoint at work to roll back to a prior version when user error makes a mistake like this.

  • jacklmg75 Leandro Goncalves (@jacklmg75) reported

    @bouelyan @DropboxSupport Hi Ali, same problem to me, my life is also there, my acwcount was disabled, no answer from Dropobox, I o pen 5 tickets.

  • SwedeEternal Kashou 👑 (@SwedeEternal) reported

    Rebooted because Dropbox locked my old dropbox folder that it refused to set as the current dropbox folder so i couldn't rename it and then it froze the shutting down screen and i had to hard reset and then dropbox wasn't even installed anymore??

  • BigCityLightsUK BigCityLightsUK (@BigCityLightsUK) reported

    Best alternative to @Dropbox anyone? That desktop app is the WORST! Buggy as hell, laptop super slow whenever Dropbox is doing anything. Absolute shite!

  • monicasegura monica (@monicasegura) reported

    Ugh!!! @DropboxSupport lack of accessibility support services is driving me bananas. One of my students is blind and trying to get some issues resolved using Microsoft’s support team. Let’s just say it’s not going well…

  • BigCityLightsUK BigCityLightsUK (@BigCityLightsUK) reported

    @DropboxSupport Yes it persists. Paid version 126.3.4577 Been syncing for hours, trying to work out what is local files and what are online only, then whenever I open up Dropbox, my whole laptop is slow and can barely use it. Yes I've cleaned cache etc. Even moving files in Dropbox is slow!

  • insectduelgames Insectduel (@insectduelgames) reported

    It's a good thing that RHDN rejected my romhack because I sent them an invalid file that comes from DropBox. Major fix involving the Old Kansai stage has to be fixed. Otherwise there's going to be negative reviews saying that I put an invisible wall in the Rush jet section.

  • AllCUTNate ALLmfinCUT ᑫᗒ⍘ᗕᑷ (@AllCUTNate) reported

    @itsjustbrenno Why not drive? Set a parent folder and make it "anyone with link can view" then send links. I use drive with no issues. Other than dropbox (which i hate tbh) not sure there are any good ones
