  • MeetKevon Kevon Cheung 🥦 (@MeetKevon) reported

    @bkh_leung Is it like using an external hard drive? I have a problem with these drives that don't work in a few years (humid, idle etc.), so thought Dropbox is a safer option. Setting up my own sounds like something out of my "wanna do" zone haha!

  • eshwarnag Eshwar Nag (@eshwarnag) reported

    @SnazzyQ @talhasifkhan But their sync is extremely slow in my experience and not seamless at all. I understand Dropbox creepiness but nothing matches Dropbox sync so far for me. Yes Google Drive is an abomination, that I agree.

  • paulsanwald paul sanwald (@paulsanwald) reported

    @benedictevans Not sure if this is "big" enough to qualify, but Dropbox acquired HackPad and then rolled it into Dropbox Paper. They also acquired Mailbox and shut it down.

  • AllenMushwana 📀Arlento Emunah (@AllenMushwana) reported

    Anybody got GTA San Andreas for PC and can send me a Dropbox or Google Drive link for me to download? The one I got keeps giving me this other error message "Cannot find 800x600x32 video mode" even after finding a supposed fix for it. If you got a working version, please DM me

  • gazzo Gazzo (@gazzo) reported

    @Dropbox how do you not have a phone support available?? I've been trying to fix a problem for over a month now with no progress...

  • nslater45_nick Nick Slater (@nslater45_nick) reported

    @GeekedOutSteven It’s just dropbox that’s not working

  • SILEeeles Stevie (@SILEeeles) reported

    @eshwarnag @SnazzyQ @talhasifkhan It’s not slow at all. I’ve used it for the past … so long I can’t even remember. I pay for 1tb a month which also gives me access to office 365 which is nice. I’d say iCloud was a close second (just my opinion) with Dropbox firmly in last place.

  • miss_magpie_spy Niki Groom (@miss_magpie_spy) reported

    I wish Procreate and Dropbox would work out a way to smooth out the kinks, having to do workarounds really slowing me down today….

  • lesbianclown the iris who tweets (@lesbianclown) reported

    @gaylittlehutao is there any chance you could upload it to dropbox or something for me to download and then take it down

  • thasmoke1985 Smoke (@thasmoke1985) reported

    @pvlace808mafia can you please send me the loops you posted yesterday? It seems they’re no longer on dropbox 🥺😭 I was having internet issues yesterday and couldn’t download them 😭😭

  • HybridRbt 混合奶兔 (@HybridRbt) reported

    So @Dropbox starts to limit number of devices for free accounts. Well done. You just lowered yourself to @evernote level. It’s a shame to see so many of my favorites went down this path but I guess we as users just have to deal with this.

  • cyclonaut Benjamin Hall (@cyclonaut) reported

    @lesmcclaine I switched to iCloud Drive just recently to prevent this and I still messed it up. iCloud doesn’t have rollback so I may be pricing dropbox if this turns into an issue going forward. Hopefully I learn my lesson.

  • i_luv_schnitzel schnitzel schnauzer (@i_luv_schnitzel) reported

    @DropboxSupport I tried to login, everytime after I entered my password, the page just loads back to the login page again. I just can't get into it. I tried with 2 different browsers btw. Help

  • jamessocol James Socol (@jamessocol) reported

    @zearl Ah, I've never had a problem but I've always kept code out of icloud (or dropbox or any other sync thing) so a relatively small number of files. I've heard mixed things about WSL—not having first-order posix support is a separate but real issue for me

  • beardedgod7189 Chris (@beardedgod7189) reported

    FBI releases documents on Seth rich … claims it was a “ robbery gone bad” . Then why did they seize his computer ? Furthermore why did the Dropbox files of George M Nasif that contained evidence of Seth Rich’s death get taken down ?

  • MorriganJules Jules (@MorriganJules) reported

    Gone to upload my application question answers for the BBC Production apprenticeship and the Dropbox link is down. Trying not to freak out.

  • philaros Philip LaRose (@philaros) reported

    Dropbox did the same thing to me with a work account: because a client shared a folder and their account, over which I had no control, was near its storage limits, I was subject to daily annoyances (notifications) urging me to upgrade. NOT MY PROBLEM, DROPBOX.

  • davidcaolo Dave (@davidcaolo) reported

    My D&D folder on Dropbox is 8.7 GB. I may have a problem.

  • BrigidCovey EvidenceOfRevision (@BrigidCovey) reported

    @tal7291 @AdamGentry2021 @Amy_L_Partridge Adam, Dr. Lewis is an academic, please DM to get her the report, I bet she can make some recommendations on maximizing your research. There could be multiple products broken out of it, as separate reports? You could put it in a google dropbox & let people get it there. Save time.

  • DaggerLeonelli Dagz 🌙✨ (@DaggerLeonelli) reported

    Net at home is down till tomorrow but I will continue to work on comms as much as I can today! I’m gonna try to go to a Starbucks later to transfer files to Dropbox from my iPad.

  • KyeFox Kye Fox (@KyeFox) reported

    @RhubarbTheBear I can see it being anxiety-inducing. I don't even notice it after the initial thing. I'd rather have it slow-walk like it does. I use Dropbox when I need something in the cloud quick, like project files. Backblaze will still get around to those eventually.

  • SirRiker2020 David Dunphy (@SirRiker2020) reported

    @masterbitch2014 Getting a 403 error from dropbox when attempting to download

  • ShrikeGames ShrikeGames 🐏 (@ShrikeGames) reported

    I think the dropbox API hit a limit from so much traffic, all the downloads are broken!

  • clussman Chat Clussman (@clussman) reported

    @DropboxSupport Why do PDFs preview blurry in the browser? I thought it was a glitch at first but it's been months. Sharing files with clients *sucks* now.

  • MarkPentaDraws Mark Penta (@MarkPentaDraws) reported

    @Procreate For some reason I can’t upload PSD files to my Dropbox. I can upload all the other file types. It’s been an ongoing issue, all software is updated. Reason?

  • kirstinferguson Dr Kirstin Ferguson (@kirstinferguson) reported

    @NeelaJan @BeauGiles @Wendycarlisle I am in Dropbox looking in deleted files but can't seem to find it just yet... not sure if it was lost because of a sync issue rather than a deletion but I am definitely searching with purpose and feeling a less panic stricken! Thank you everyone x

  • nahidtislam nahid (@nahidtislam) reported

    @SnazzyQ I always seem to lose my files with OneDrive when I seem to do important projects on my computer and all of them problems went away when I switched to Dropbox

  • fabienboythias S H N O C K D U (@fabienboythias) reported

    @SnazzyQ For Personal use, probably. I use OneDrive too. For professional use, because OneDrive for Business uses on SharePoint, it's horrible. Recurrent disconnection and re-setup, error during syncs, issues with collaboration and special characters. For pro use, Dropbox any-day.

  • danieldurrans Daniel Durrans 🟠 Pro-Vax (@danieldurrans) reported

    @yakkoj I have been trying to track down my kernel panics for a few months. I am not sure what may (may as in I won’t know until I have another) fixed it, but it became more stable after: - removing third party kexts - uninstalling dropbox - minimising use of intel apps

  • ToBo_CH Tom Boss (@ToBo_CH) reported

    @SnazzyQ OneDrive doesn’t reliably work on Mac. And it doesn’t accept around 15 chars in file names. As example a space as last letter. Synchronization problems, which Dropbox doesn’t know. (iCloud sharing works great in small groups) And let‘s talk about office on the web: abhorrent!!
