  • LoenSanchez Leo Sanchez (@LoenSanchez) reported

    @DropboxSupport Hello, I had a problem when entering my account, it says that it disabled, but I am using it.

  • sasanianshah Dr. Χοδαδάδιος Ρεζαχανίδης 🇮🇸🇪🇺 (@sasanianshah) reported

    @MelissaK_Moore I have been doing this or years. But then I got a job at Leiden University and they don’t allow @Dropbox because the servers are in the US and subject to US laws, which means @DHSgov has access to the data. Now I am forced to use Microsoft’s terrible cloud “service”.

  • kurtcopeland Kurt Copeland (@kurtcopeland) reported

    @DropboxSupport Our company tech guy has blacklisted Dropbox because "it is unsecure" At first we just couldn't use the desktop app because nothing would synchronize, but we still could login via a browser. Now that has been blocked, too. Is there a workaround for this?

  • AlxWndrlnd Alex Hussey (@AlxWndrlnd) reported

    @DropboxSupport I've been having issues logging into my dropbox account this morning. Ticket number #12557260. Can someone please help me out?

  • MadisonSturdev Madison Sturdevant (@MadisonSturdev) reported

    Sure, my mom could just text me the video she took of the kittens she found in her barn. But no. She’s gonna upload it to Dropbox, send me a link and make me download the app and figure out the login I haven’t used since 2015 instead. 😐

  • JayEm9000 Jose (@JayEm9000) reported

    Hey @DropboxSupport , It looks like the code highlighting on Dropbox paper has been broken for the last two weeks.

  • lebblionsoh Dr KOUMALO (@lebblionsoh) reported

    @Adrian48392053 @CoinomiWallet @Dropbox i have the same issue

  • pitermach Piotr Machacz (@pitermach) reported

    Dropbox just reminded me of its existence by something, its auto updater? Reenabling it in startup, causing the PC to slow to a crawl while thousands of files index, thousands more from reorganized shares get deleted, and a couple of viruses get blocked by Defender (vVirus (1/4)

  • succubeanie °:* eggi em | semi hiatus 🥚 *・゚:* (@succubeanie) reported

    ahahahahah bc of my medical issues and recent Dr appointments my paycheck has suffered and I might not be able to afford rent or my electricity. fml huh,, ******* ****. so uh,, hit me up for customs? Dropbox is $10 too pocketstars is $4 as well.

  • SamHulick Sam Hulick (@SamHulick) reported

    @pvtcmyers87 @Dropbox It's hard to quantify, but Dropbox has a ton of polish in every aspect of the service. And while I had no issues with Google Drive's transfers, my wife did. The application would just sit there "preparing to sync" for hours, for no reason. Total mess.

  • _Kiran_N_ Kiran Nagaraj (@_Kiran_N_) reported

    @kelseyhightower @martin_casado @sarahdingwang Missing two important value drivers: a. Infrastructure is an arms race. Hard to keep up in house. e.g., case of AWS making own electrical switchgear firmware related to 2017 outage. Dropbox can't do R&D on this. Cost avoidance value is huge.

  • NeilPasricha Neil Pasricha (@NeilPasricha) reported

    @Dropbox Yeah, I noticed it's been suggested on there for years so I suspect that won't do anything. I've also emailed @drewhouston about the issue and never heard back. Feels like nobody cares.

  • Icon0234 Icon Jessica (@Icon0234) reported

    @YaqouBakhsh @DropboxSupport the only way you can get your account back as it was, then you will have to contact @Mikelhack3 for assistance he will help you fix your account or contact him on whatsapp +13172966488

  • tobyw tobyw (@tobyw) reported

    @martin_casado @sarahdingwang Is this a cloud problem or is this just a problem of not being cost conscience when building & growing ? Dropbox got rid of a TON of storage during same period by closing accounts of users who didn't use the system (their s1).

  • kent_isaksson Kent Isaksson (@kent_isaksson) reported

    @bibi831551 @DropboxSupport I guess they closed down your account also!?!

  • vanzilar vanzilar (@vanzilar) reported

    @MelissaK_Moore In addition... keep critical backups on CD or DVDROM, 2 removable HDs (or flash) and periodically backup remotely to a server you control. I have actually needed all of that. Companies like Dropbox and Google can go bust... do not trust the cloud 100% (however use the cloud)

  • warraqeen Rob Jones (@warraqeen) reported

    @mcelhearn I like Scrivener on the iPad, but I worry about losing work. So I use the feature that lets me save to Dropbox. The problem is that a save takes 30-60 seconds, needs to be manually triggered and is modal, not in the background. Is there a better way? (Do I need to buy your book?)

  • kent_isaksson Kent Isaksson (@kent_isaksson) reported

    @fuegomaster2020 @DropboxSupport Same problem for me!!!!!

  • _David_Fenner_ David Fenner (@_David_Fenner_) reported

    5) Cloud is slow, fails, and has very little space. App update is really shady, can make things worse. Cloud app is shady too, and power hungry. Tries to make you dependent of it, instead of competing honorably with other apps. Much better off with offline tools + dropbox.

    @bandaradnan @DropboxSupport Hello!. Kindly send a direct message for assistance. We can help you retrieve your account back and recover all online issues.

  • marc_schulder Marc Schulder (@marc_schulder) reported

    @briennakh @MichaelSkyer @lornaquandt Dropbox, Google Drive, iCloud and various other services offer folder sync. You could even get a NAS (your own little server at home, e.g. by Synology) with accompanying apps if you don't like storing so much data on corporate servers.

  • herman_johansen Herman Johansen (@herman_johansen) reported

    @JasonHorton69 Dropbox. Onecloud. Words you must learn. Is plus, a broken screen won't have any effect on your hard drive or memory.

  • nileshgr Nilesh (@nileshgr) reported

    @josematthew Keepass2droid app supports quite a few cloud services and it keeps a cache locally on device. I used to use it with Dropbox earlier but now have my own nextcloud server.

  • janet_yen1 Janet Yen 🌟 (@janet_yen1) reported

    2/ Understand how big of a problem this is for them Example: "It was so amateur hour when I've been in the industry for 20 years. I cobbled together Dropbox, Zoom, email. I've looked at other platforms such as X, Y, Z." Is this level 1 pain or level 10 for them?

  • Lillian280453 LAS (@Lillian280453) reported

    @DropboxSupport @Aryan18570412 I had drop box share on y device also but seems it might have been deleted in error. Show do I get my pics shared back as details are now lost. Please advise

  • Slinehan Seán Linehan (@Slinehan) reported

    @DropboxSupport Why is Dropbox ignoring worldwide account access problems? How can I get back into my account??

  • uisgebeatha AJ, friend of Blåhaj (@uisgebeatha) reported

    @DropboxSupport Hi, someone has used my email in error to share files with me. Is there an easy way to let them know?
