Dropbox Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • JenniferTheHomo Autojenophillic (@JenniferTheHomo) reported

    Advice given to have a look at the error logs has suggested it might be dropbox, as at the time i had the bluescreen, there were 4 or 5 dropbox errors

  • misterburton Burton Rast (@misterburton) reported

    @jmj Oof. Mailbox. A reminder that Dropbox shut down so many products I enjoyed. (See also: Carousel)

  • _gravymixes Sean Gray (@_gravymixes) reported

    @DropboxSupport I was never issued a license key after making a purchase over a week ago and have been trying to contact support about the issue and it still hasn't been resolved.

  • thejqd Jared (@thejqd) reported

    @draecomino VCs play an important role. E.g., @solana hired deep distributed systems and networking experts (people from Qualcomm, Dropbox, etc... and families to feed) and had to support this team while it worked heads down for years during a vicious bear market. Same for @StarkWareLtd .

  • BozheenaC Bozheena Capital (@BozheenaC) reported

    @DropboxSupport Emily was able to fix the problem. Give her a raise!!!

  • jakeefer Jason Keefer (@jakeefer) reported

    @peter_durst @nathanabauman @fujifilmmag Unfortunately not with me. I scanned most of those myself and only had the bone roll in my Dropbox. I promise you won’t be let down. The 90 is like a 40 in full frame terms, and the 3.5 can be quite shallow. It’s an impressive lens. I took some great night shots with it.

  • HottestHellPup 🔞 Raven Ripley ➡️ Chicago! Dec 2nd-6th✨ (@HottestHellPup) reported

    Also gonna be shutting down my telegram channel since I can’t keep up with it like I would like too. Everything is going to be posted in Dropbox so whoever has my telegram channel will have access to all the content I’ve made.

  • SeithSCP Seith (@SeithSCP) reported

    The email is not stating the issue, only “Please be advised that due to the violation of PayPal's Acceptable Use Policy, your account will remain permanently limited.” I’ve only use it in the past days for French post, uber, dropbox, aliexpress and consoles services. (2/4)

  • rzazueta Rob Zazueta (@rzazueta) reported

    @DropboxSupport I appreciate the response. I tried it as you suggested and ran into the issue again. I've decided to go in a different direction. Thanks!

  • JenniferTheHomo Autojenophillic (@JenniferTheHomo) reported

    So i've done a reinstall of dropbox which apparently will fix it. Will see if i get more bluescreens this weeks

  • neilkleid Neil Kleid (@neilkleid) reported

    @ComicBookYeti Yeah, I have a book out next year I'm going to want to send around. The only issue is the PDF is too big to email around...any smaller and it starts to artifact. Do you recommend a Dropbox link to the PDF in that case?

  • lisa_kore Lisa! (@lisa_kore) reported

    @kysmutt my dropbox links get taken down too :((

  • JenniferTheHomo Autojenophillic (@JenniferTheHomo) reported

    googling the error has suggested that it might be because dropbox updater is **** and doesnt update a specific certificate, which after a period of time can then cause errors which is causing my laptop to bluescreen

  • Mottokrosh Frank “Mottokrosh” Reding (@Mottokrosh) reported

    Would be great if @BackerKit had an "Add to Dropbox/Google Drive/..." integration for their digital rewards. Not that I'm saying I have a problem, what with the amount of Kickstarters I back or anything.

  • ImNotJK Jordan Kong (@ImNotJK) reported

    2/ When I first met Vijay, it was immediately clear that he was *the* person to solve this problem. Vijay had helped companies like MSFT (Xbox), Dropbox, and Scribd recover $100M+ in revenue. Now, he and the team at Butter can help your subscription company do the same.

  • trevoryoung Trevor Young (@trevoryoung) reported

    Providing a 'cloud' link to the public so that anyone with it can download an audio or video file -- would love to use Google Drive, but of course, recipients need a login (thanks Google!!) - Dropbox probably the best alternative? I know some people use AWS. Any thoughts folks?

  • pradnelluru Prad Nelluru, some cunning artificer (@pradnelluru) reported

    @johnregehr The most popular networked file systems are the Dropbox/OneDrive/Google Drive sync clients (web, mobile, desktop.) They all try to give the illusion of a remote drive indistinguishable from a local one, and have to deal with a million sync problems. So, NFSs are not dead!

  • rzazueta Rob Zazueta (@rzazueta) reported

    @DropboxSupport I am trying to upgrade my account, but every time I click "Upgrade" I get an error 500. And there's no way to talk to someone at Dropbox about it. How do I get this fixed?

  • VelociraptorAr Velociraptor— (@VelociraptorAr) reported

    @ZuriPOL @RealStrongLegs @DonHaci They backed down on it, and scanning photos uploaded to cloud services has been industry standard forever. Drive, Dropbox, Mega do it. The AI doesn't even look at your photos at all

  • MLGW MLGW (@MLGW) reported

    @mashstartbutton Hi, I apologize for the situation, we are experiencing IT issues. Customers can still make payments at a pay agent, or leave a check/money order in the dropbox of one of our Community Offices. Please note, due to circumstances, we are not disconnecting for non-payment today.

  • arm_047 Amarjit Ball (@arm_047) reported

    @DropboxSupport dropbox file uploads are very slow to non existant Please advise

  • MistryDevang Devang Mistry (@MistryDevang) reported

    @samyukta16 @USCIS I am currently in india and yet to get a slot. I have been trying from almost two months now. Due to limited availability and whenever slots have opened, it errors while booking as a lot of people are trying at the same time. Please release more h1b Dropbox slots 🙏🏻@USAndMumbai

  • FlowerPath4BTS FlowerPath4BTS ⟭⟬⁷ (@FlowerPath4BTS) reported

    @GabrielleG9_ load them on a different server, like dropbox for example then the link(s) to HD with the reduced twt quality uploads

  • rwsscott Tired Tweeter (@rwsscott) reported

    HELP! What service is best for sharing editable files across organizations? Like a weekly mtg agenda. Google docs seems like the only option. Is that rt? Office365 locks out and requires you to go find the original invitation email. DropBox seems to have edit/access issues.

  • RaceBeardie The Other Kim (@RaceBeardie) reported

    A friend got a new M1 chipped MacBook Pro for work. She can’t use @Dropbox as the M1 chip won’t allow it. DB supposedly working on a patch to fix this but it won’t be ready until next year. This is Apple’s way of encouraging you to use iCloud. I really miss Steve.

  • DipierroAnthony Anthony DiPierro (@DipierroAnthony) reported

    @edzollars @NayoCarterGray Ah, yes, this is exactly what I’m seeing. I was hoping that storing the files locally and just syncing them between computers using something like Dropbox might fix it. OneDrive might be an easier fix.

  • m_galvagno Michele Galvagno, Artistic Score Engraving (@m_galvagno) reported

    Upon login, I waited for #Dropbox, #CreativeCloud & other startup items to launch and realise that they didn’t have access to the network then turned on WiFi, waiting for it to connect and 💥, #iCloud unlocked & sync’d everything perfectly. NB: I have a 500/350Mbps fibre [4]

  • LeCede_Bxl Mr. C. (@LeCede_Bxl) reported

    @DropboxSupport I was unable to get on a computer. I was trying to navigate on my phone. The error message occurred when I wanted to use the feedback option.

  • CalishaCool Cali Consistently (@CalishaCool) reported

    I didn’t realize that uploading files with the @Dropbox app would take so much time out of my editing. It doesn’t upload in the background so I lose more time every night. Is there a way fix to this? @DropboxSupport

  • yamimayuyu Yaminako🔞 (@yamimayuyu) reported

    For anyone who newly support my subscribestar or fanbox, I have to tell that the older contents are more reliable to be found on Dropbox, because the older contents get screwed a lot by lots of problem, so they tend to be broken.
