    @caitrionambalfe @Dropbox Is Instagram down today too? 🤪

  • lou_o_skipper Lou (@lou_o_skipper) reported

    @RepGrove Wait, it is still not an issue!!! Watch the video Seth!!! Adding a Dropbox per 100,000 people@isn’t going to help a thing!

  • Hodladi Hodladi Bitcoin ∞/21M (@Hodladi) reported

    @Pommbear Good thing if u wanna run a personal server with for example nextcloud (private self hosted Dropbox).. Without being forced to have bitcoin running simultaneously.. But for me, I chose another software for a Bitcoin full Node

  • LucidBrot LucidBrot (@LucidBrot) reported

    @UnfinishedOwl @syncthing But of course, the main reason to use it over dropbox/megasync/... is that it's self-hosted (my data is mine) and open-source (if its broken, I can fix it. If the creator ceases to exist, I can still use it).

  • SamaraLoAuthor Samara Lo (@SamaraLoAuthor) reported

    @chrleon @ScrivenerApp I had this issue too so now I make sure I close scriv every time I work with it that way if I open it on a diff device it should’ve synched properly. Also if you’re switching immediately between devices wait for Dropbox to fully synch (it’ll notify you that it’s added x files).

    @caitrionambalfe @Dropbox try to logout and login again

  • AleksBadura Dr. Aleksandra Badura (@AleksBadura) reported

    @pgolshani Shipping hard-drives is the most efficient in my experience. Upload to Google Drive/Dropbox takes too long. Or give them temporary read/download-only permission to some place in your server where you store the files?

  • FinecoSpace Fineco Space (@FinecoSpace) reported

    @popopoka_ SSD problems, use cloud such as onedrive/google drive(google one)/mega/dropbox

  • sara_saying_hi Sara (@sara_saying_hi) reported

    @caitrionambalfe @Dropbox My go-to: Shut down/Power off the phone completely and start it again (in order to re-boot it) if the saving-to-the-camera-roll shouldn't work by itself already

  • MUNles162 Laura Squires (@MUNles162) reported

    3/5 3) Expanding on #2, If you are having trouble with the format/can't figure something out, it is your responsibility to reach out BEFORE submitting. Writing a message in the dropbox saying you couldn't figure it out, is not sufficient and will not excuse you. #HKR1000

  • horsemankukka Kukka de Bierguirb Häst (@horsemankukka) reported

    @JuEeHa yeah apparently it syncs the files with dropbox/evernote/gdrive. so if implemented correctly it only depends on one of those three services and the manufacturer possibly going down ar some point won’t brick it straight away

  • MACKabiVIPer42 PHILIP CRAWFORD (@MACKabiVIPer42) reported

    I tried to connect to Dropbox Support today only problem is Dropbox Support does not work on weekends because my Dropbox hasn’t worked for the second day I have updated Dropbox three time in two weeks last time my Dropbox worked was on 10/8 now I got over 400 photos sit on camera

  • philkingeditor Phil King (@philkingeditor) reported

    @MuseumofLondon Are your Minecraft maps still available? I get an error in Dropbox when I click the links for them on the website.

  • hilal_bus Hilâl B. (@hilal_bus) reported

    @DropboxSupport Hi, I have a problem with my Dropbox and couldn't have an answer from your help center :(

  • kittenbuttxxx Christina (ノಠ益ಠ)ノ彡┻━┻ (@kittenbuttxxx) reported

    Where do you post your NSFW work that people pay for from P*teron & K*o-fi tiers? Redirect to where? A dropbox or Img*r or private server?

  • lisascottbcd Lisa S. Scott 🧠 (@lisascottbcd) reported

    my current collaborative nightmare: google drive, Dropbox, OneDrive, box. also: trello, confluence, slack, email, text messages. all used/required. can someone use machine learning and fix this please? 😵‍💫

    Dear @Dropbox 👏Stop.👏Trying.👏 To.👏 Show.👏 My.👏 Files.👏 Using.👏 Your.👏 Crappy.👏 Slow.👏 Viewers. I'm on slow internet and just need to download them.

  • LaupLaup2 LaupLaup (@LaupLaup2) reported

    @caitrionambalfe @Dropbox I would suggest as a last resort assuming you remember your passwords, logging out of both and clearing the cache from the Apps. Then if that dont fix it, clearing the data and cache, but the data will lose any settings for each App, if you go down that route

  • Alexbalfe1 Alexpaul (@Alexbalfe1) reported

    @caitrionambalfe @Dropbox Reset everything is not working holy 💦🙏

  • ldkgebot George Bot (@ldkgebot) reported

  • Mike_Wizowski21 Kermit The Frog (@Mike_Wizowski21) reported

    @4_you_i_Go_Hard @V4Tragedy Did you download it the Dropbox is taken down already 🥲

  • domeinnaam123 domeinregistratie (@domeinnaam123) reported

    @PleskHelps how can i fix this error. The problem is i use 10 servers. 8 of 10 are oke. 2 not. I got this error: Unable to create the remote backup: Transport error: Extension transport: ext://dropbox-backup/server/: The upload session ID was not found or has experid.

  • arvalis RJ Palmer (@arvalis) reported

    @CaraidArt @kimstramat I mean the internet I have is like 25 megabits per second up and down so its more than enough to cover streaming content, talking in meetings, uploading heavy files to dropbox etc. It just aint downloading a gig in a minute. I'm pretty lucky to have this speed tho where I live

  • pokegenieinfo Poke Genie (@pokegenieinfo) reported

    @WillemOK The end of the metadata.json file may be duplicated. You can send the metadata.json file (from Poke Genie's backup folder in Dropbox) to pokegenieinfo at gmail dot com, and I can fix it for you.

  • backseatsquare backseatsquare ($-/—) (@backseatsquare) reported

    dropbox & google drive are giving me issues so that will have to wait, so i’ll be posting bundles i can send elsewhere.

  • blottoHead999 Bklyn Guy (@blottoHead999) reported

    @gracels @donmcallister I'm having problems with my Raven "original" scanner syncing with Dropbox. I scan, I see a confirmation that it's uploaded, yet it fails to sync.

    @DropboxSupport My god @DropboxSupport ! What a messed up company you are! Who is really taking this Twitter account seriously? @Dropbox is sinking its ship down the drain...
