@Jordon_Cheung Terrible process but I’ve got iCloud and usually backup with Dropbox manually. It’s a pain in the ***.

iCloud too slow, Google Drive too buggy, Dropbox too expensive.

@gerik Most of the time I just upload files via the web on FIOS. then it pulls them down onto the Synology in the closet as my main Dropbox store. But I agree the inability to move the main dropbox folder is a huge feature reduction.

@audiogibbs i have a couple of things going: 1. I sync to dropbox if I'm not working directly on it, which i i often am. 2. I also sync to secondary backup volume 3. I have a script the runs these chronosync tasks that I fire off with @alfredapp and it also runs when i quit pro tools.

@DropboxSupport Yes that’s correct. I think the Dropbox connection issue happened after I restarted my computer.

@DropboxSupport Drag & Drop feature doesnt seem to be working for me. Specically C or D drives drag to app. Its been going on for a week or so. I was wondering was there any bug issues I should know about. Or is is more a case just remove then reinstall to fix?

@Oddernod @DropboxSupport Totally nuts 🥜. I think someone made this decision without realizing that it implies loss of so many users. We have a Linux server running a Dropbox app, but it will still mean our freelancers can’t use it, so we’ll have to drop it. Otherwise, we love it.

Have a follow up and labs with my GI doc tomorrow am. I find it really helpful to write down symptom summary and questions I have (and save my notes in Dropbox) in advance so I don't forget things AND can compare to how I've been doing at time of past visits.

@david_peterson @sam_plue @wjqi0430 Probably something to do with sandboxing and the continued locking down of things? Interesting it’s happening around same time that Dropbox is racing to update their app using the File Provider API, due to kernel extensions being deprecated… soon?

@wesyang Sync isn't bad either. I use it and Dropbox together without issue.

@yoshisquared I will put some stuff/WIP on my Dropbox, but right now I have this issue where the transitions with me going from laptop to my iPad are clunky af, so for the most part I just save my stuffs to my external HDs or a USB stick.

@xrossfader Sounds like this is Apple's doing rather than DropBox? This is going to be a major problem for lots of industries - legal, music, tv/movie production, off the top of my head. I foresee potential litigation.

@workbench_tv I had this problem with Citrix Sharefile (horrible, horrible bit of software) and managed to circumvent it with a symlink. No idea if this works with Dropbox but agreed - it's unwieldy. In their defence I think it's to do with security from Apple, not a DB design choice.

Extensions Cont'd: On Monterey, I had extension errors with Matt Ingallls (Soundflower) and Roland (unknown) marked for "future" incompatibility, and Dropbox as incompatible (I'm sure there is an update). I removed all three. 3/

@JBowdacious @triffidTV There was also a time period where Dropbox didn't like symlinks at all. I've never run into issues with mine, but they have a spotty past from what I've seen in help docs.

If I buy a Literary NFT that represents ownership of a novel, but the author stores the ebook in a Dropbox folder & token gates it on their site, there’s no guarantee I or future owners of the NFT won’t run into a 404 or broken Dropbox link in 10 yrs when we go to read that novel

@Adrian__mxli … there is software that can enhance it like audacity… key is to separate the voices… if you want load file into an external drive like dropbox or Google Drive send me the link via DM and I’ll see if I can run it through all my software for you I use for my podcasts and fix it

@j_ssuarez Has this been implemented yet? I’m running Ventura with an M1 Mac Studio and DropBox on an external drive with no issues currently.

LRT: It is not hard to like, make a google drive or dropbox link to download something! It's 100x better than asking me to join your discord server to play something!

Im not gonna lie the messages constantly asking about my Dropbox are annoying. There are literally 700 files, if you went through them all that fast you need to slow tf down. I live with other people and have not had time to update.

@DropboxSupport Multiple issues I think. The email address that is linked to the sign-in no longer exists. I have the right password I think but I get a one time code sent to that email when I enter it

@HugoCGuerra @xrossfader @Dropbox Ah, yeah you’re not gonna get that over nas, that’ll cap out at 1100/1200 ish. I think this is a apple issue mostly. So let’s hope apple fixes this soon

be deleted and whomever did this did so without my permission. I'm extremely frustrated and my next course of action will be to consult an attorney as well as make a report with the Attorney General. I've been a dropbox customer for nearly 12 years and I've never had a problem
