  Watching Linus complain about GitHub's "terrible user experience" & all I can think about is how he has no business downloading scripts off GitHub in the first place. Hermano this is a version control system, not Dropbox.

  @Dropbox Your macOS app adding itself to the startup/login items any time you open the app is the most stupid and greedy move. It's unnecessary and annoying, please remove it.

  @DropboxSupport Hi, I moved my Dropbox Folder from My Passport > (E:)\Dropbox to My Book (N:)\Dropbox. However, Dropbox Syncs to (E:) > My PC (DESKTOP-H709SRD) > Desktop > Empty Folder Any suggestions on why this happens Dropbox tells me there are no syncing errors Sync's okay to (N:) Thank you

  @BenABender I've had dropbox issues with clip studio on iPad- it's an issue they know of as well. Dropbox also gets backed up uploading files from the iPad, which can cause issues with syncing. I ended up using the clip studio cloud service for things I really need to make sure get saved.

  nothing like that RUSH of adrenaline when *none* of the files in your dropbox folder will open on the new hand-me-down computer! (it's fine, it was a syncing issue [I guess] but WHOO those few minutes were a trip!)

  @DropboxSupport v132.4.3800, installed update as fix attempt; Bandwidth is unlimited up/down but I also tried manually setting it to a high number. DB is now downloading, but extremely slow and regularly stalls on 'Downloading xxxxx files' for many minutes or reports 0.0 kb/sec.

  @BenABender I have problems exporting from Procreate to Dropbox - I read it was a Dropbox issue. My workaround has been to use another (free) app callled Documents, and I save to there then share to Dropbox. Very annoying

  @DropboxSupport having trouble dragging images and pdf's into dropbox now, chrome pops it up as a pdf, were there any updates or quick solutions for this rather than disabling pdf visibility in chrome?

  @Dropbox The status for Dropbox says it's up, but we're experiencing an outage - can't even reach the website... Is this a new development?

  @CozyCryp ...2/2 and then select "Preferences" from the menu > Verify that the box next to "Start Dropbox on system startup" is unchecked. If the issue still persists, please let us know.

  @DropboxSupport how does one resolve the issue where one opens a document on dropbox web using Excel web for example and get a blank page?

  @DropboxSupport My Dropbox Account has been disabled. I don't know why. I cannot login. You need to login for Dropbox support. Seriously. No support with email no support with telephone number. I need Dropbox for my ordination. I am not very happy about that.

  @ScrivenerApp @Documentally Christian, I’ve been syncing to Dropbox for years, no problem.

  It’s probably gonna be ala cart or “here grab this giant Dropbox for x amount of money” going forward. I don’t have the spoons for the clipsites. I’m gonna keep the accounts open for verification purposes but I’m sick of the slow *** pay outs.

  @DropboxSupport Just tried with Firefox and had the same issue

  @dbgreenwald @profmusgrave This was a concern for me too as I have a couple coauthors who use Word. I did have some trouble with something to do with syncing tex references across Dropbox with coauthors once, but I can't remember the exact issue. But may want to watch out for that if coauthoring w/dropbox.

  So UWI ignored my direct deposit and sent a cheque instead without notifying me. But cuz UWI Scotia is now a sales centre, I can't drop off cheques in the Dropbox. But the UWI Scotia ATMs have a problem accepting UWI branded cheques. Lol.

  I am wondering if anyone out there having issue uploading files to dropbox since yesterday? They still haven't fixed the issue and I need to find another cloud service as I am worried about reliability of @Dropbox @DropboxSupport

  @BadstoneMusic Hey Scott. we hope you don't mind us jumping in. Dropbox engineers are aware of the issue and are working on a solution. As soon as we have any news, we'll let you know. Alternatively, if you already have a ticket open with Support, please let us know the...1/2

  @DropboxSupport I'm having trouble uploading to my Dropbox in any folder. I tried diff folders, even my root folder. Nothing. Paid plan, 2tb, no notices of exceeding limits. It automatically downloads the file I drag into the browser and even nothing happens with upload button.

  My @Dropbox seems to have issues on #Mac #BigSur. Syncing is excruciatingly slow and keeps stalling completely. This seems to be a widespread problem. Any known solutions? (already tried fixing permissions & rebooting)

  I can’t upload to @Dropbox on two different machines - one local and one remote with teamviewer - anyone else having this issue? @DropboxSupport

  Onur (@onursiezma) reported 44 minutes ago

  @DropboxSupport Well i spoke with customer service and I was told there is a problem with Dropbox and engineers are working on it. I am on extremely tight deadline and now I have to find another option to send files to clients.
