Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • TheRealHarmonie Harmonie Marquise-Medical Hiatus-FMTY (@TheRealHarmonie) reported from Alafaya Woods, Florida

    @DropboxSupport 3 months I have not had access to upgraded storage but my account has been charged each month. Google support tried trouble shooting and clearing caches, still nothing. No response to email sent to dropbox support...

  • uhhShaawn Parallel Shawn (@uhhShaawn) reported

    @JoyceytheVelGod @mmteds Dropbox was better cus everyone just exported their clips to a folder on the comp. Drive has a desktop app but no one downloads it and are too lazy to log into the web page. I’ve noticed a clear drop off in the efficiently of teams since with leaders having to chase members down.

  • DropboxSupport Dropbox Support (@DropboxSupport) reported

    @Vonster The issue you're experiencing may be related to Finder not refreshing the window correctly. If you haven't done so yet, please force quit the Dropbox app, and then restart the Finder. If the behavior persists, please let us know.

  • nathanhussey Nathan Hussey (@nathanhussey) reported

    @DevinWayne Low Teens but I suspect the new one will beat that. @everytimeidie the dropbox link you sent me is broken, can you resend? Thx.

  • twitskeptic Joe (@twitskeptic) reported

    @DropboxSupport @nmatasci If only there was something, let’s call it “software”, that could easily be distributed to customers to fix these problems.

  • wnwagner Wendy N. Wagner (@wnwagner) reported

    @alwayscoffee I think you have a LOT more space on Dropbox, although that's probably not an issue unless you like to save photos or ebooks.

  • unidentifed1387 Nelson@law (@unidentifed1387) reported

    @DropboxSupport So I have to pay to talk to the service that I just had inadvertantly infiltrate my entire PC? I can't learn how to solve the issue created by your program without paying for a buisness plan?

  • MrsDrAtlantis Kathleen Smith (@MrsDrAtlantis) reported

    Today, I told @DoctorAtlantis that I'd like to speed the process of getting the boxes to the basement (two floors down) by dropping the boxes down to him from upstairs. I called it Project Dropbox, which took him a couple of seconds to get.

  • lindsaypopowski lindsay (she/her) (@lindsaypopowski) reported

    uploaded my math assignment to the class dropbox rather than the correct space on gradescope (because I forgot that was even an option for this class) so, in conclusion, we should use fewer web instructor tools because the problem can’t be me /s

  • tbeernot Tom Eugelink (@tbeernot) reported

    I'm considering purchasing a NAS, and I would like to back it up to a cloud storage with versioning (in case of a hijack virus). Anyone experiences with such a setup? Considering ownCloud, Dropbox. I currently use Carbonite for my home server.

  • chrislatray Chris La Tray (@chrislatray) reported

    @waub I should probably do more. My files are all in Dropbox so I can access them from multiple machines. I think I’ll put it on a thumb drive too. I’ve had issues with external drives not being readable after OS updates so I don’t trust them much.

  • joostvanderborg Joost van der Borg (@joostvanderborg) reported

    @RonJeffries The zip refers to the spikes in dropbox, which breaks since they’re not in my dropbox. self.assetTable = { down=asset.trap_down, up=asset.trap_up } on line 53 in TestSpikes fixed this.

  • YoursTrulyUmara brit-ish (@YoursTrulyUmara) reported

    The days that the main site would go down, I would search endlessly for proxies. I’d then drop the file in dropbox and watch it from my main laptop I felt like an absolute whizkid when I found the 1080p screeners pre-Awards season, I’d have all the nominated films boxed off!

  • LordNeptune5 LordNeptune🧜🏿‍♂️🏄🏾‍♂️🔥🔥 (@LordNeptune5) reported

    @prodxanderr Dropbox or box, drive annoying/slow af for me

  • AJFranklin1975 Alan Franklin (@AJFranklin1975) reported

    Anyone out there a whizz with Dropbox that could send me a PM to throw some light on an issue I’m having? Cheers

  • 1d3155e197c6e91 It hurts when I meme (@1d3155e197c6e91) reported

    @donutcrimez This is what you can do. Go sign up for free Dropbox account, install the app, and dump all the pictures into Dropbox using their app. Then on the new phone install Dropbox and pull them all back down.

  • hckennedy_ Hannah Kennedy 🧜🏻 (@hckennedy_) reported

    Someone remake Misery but it's 2022. I know that sounds like a terrible idea and YES it would be a terrible idea. But it would be a 'it's so bad it's good' movie. Imagine the moment where Annie makes Paul burn his manuscript but it's just an overdramatic deleting off Dropbox.

  • unidentifed1387 Nelson@law (@unidentifed1387) reported

    @DropboxSupport how in the world do I get in touch with a human that can help me with my dropbox issues? Beyond frustrated with your "support."

  • charlie_g_s Charlie (@charlie_g_s) reported

    @Under_Punches I use Keypass. I keep the passwords file in my own Dropbox folder and it works across platforms, there’s even Ubuntu clients for it. Been using it about 8 years, no issues.

  • gm8arv David Taylor 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 🇪🇺 (@gm8arv) reported

    @DD1US Normally in the HRPT reader File|Save with correction applies an adjustment to the image. If that’s not working perhaps I didn’t have enough data to make that work well enough. If it’s still an issue please put the data up on your Web site or DropBox and I’ll check it out.

  • VincentDiGirol3 Vincent DiGirolamo (@VincentDiGirol3) reported

    @zoeanngriffith @Dropbox Terrible! A great betrayal. Merits a class action suit. Fortunately, I've kept most stuff in an external drive as well.

  • ialo8907 Ivan Luzardo Ocampo (@ialo8907) reported

    @Siilviasilsil I’ve been using Dropbox since more than 10 years ago as I lost all my data due to hard drive issues.

  • alissamenke AlissaMenke (@alissamenke) reported

    End of story ... or so I thought. Turns out, ever though we double-checked to make sure our package dropped down in the #UPS dropbox, they show no record of getting it.

  • astrolamm New Year, Same Sarah (@astrolamm) reported

    @ChemistCraig I use to do this. I called them Folder 1, Folder 2, Folder 3. Now I do a much better job because I solely save everything to Dropbox. I'm paranoid about my computer breaking down or getting busted. And now I have two folders called "Other" and "Nothing"

  • ChayseFox Chayse Fox 🦊 (@ChayseFox) reported

    I think I got it narrowed down to @onedrive, @Dropbox, Box, or iCloud as the source of my problems.

  • Complit_be Jonas Dekkers (@Complit_be) reported

    @malief46 Also big fan of dropbox. Using it for 5 years withoyt any problem. Had a lot problems with one drive a few years ago. But I think onedrive is bow working better then a fzw years ago

  • Vonster Von Glitschka (@Vonster) reported

    @DropboxSupport Yes I did that and it fixed it. So this is an Apple problem?

  • lunaire_io lunaire.io - f r a n k i e - (@lunaire_io) reported

    Since my PC’s been down and I’m waiting on replacement parts, I’ve been backing up all my old art/sketches from my ipad to a dropbox and like. Holy **** I have so much old stuff I’m finally sorting. It’s taking forever, though. x__x

  • AriDublyu Ari M Weinstein (@AriDublyu) reported

    @Vonster @Dropbox Von, this could be MacOS. I have the exact same problem with @Egnyte Connect, a competing (and much better) cloud storage service.

  • Vonster Von Glitschka (@Vonster) reported

    Hey @Dropbox your desktop app has been very hinky over the last three months. The ability to right click on content and copy dropbox link vanishes. Even when I shut down app and re-open it won't appear unless I restart my machine?
