    @donjuanauxenfer oh, pushbullet looks neat. i was doing some fucky **** with dropbox and symlinks but i was having version control issues and gave up on it. google docs was wholly inadequate. i love simplenote

  • maerlynofmiria Steve Mann (@maerlynofmiria) reported

    @joyctilton BTW, how exactly do you get voice dream reader to actually work any more? I put audios in zip files in my voice dream folder in dropbox and VTR refuses to even play anything. It errors out on me and does everything but work.

  • jiangd Dicky J (@jiangd) reported

    @Mental_Canvas NVM, turn out it's only happened in @Dropbox thumbnail and it's their problem, all others platform are good 👍

  • ShelleyElwood Ant Murdering She Devil (@ShelleyElwood) reported

    @DropboxSupport @Dropbox It is literally impossible to contact you by email so of course I don't have a ticket number, and really no hope I'll get any help, tbh. Your integration with Pixlr is broken, can't even open files anymore, maybe look at why your software is slow and buggy?

  • AndyIbanezK Andy Ibanez (@AndyIbanezK) reported

    Never mind on Dropbox - I just get a "The operation couldn't be completed" error there.

  • JustinLFricke Justin Fricke (@JustinLFricke) reported from Nashville, Tennessee

    @DropboxSupport I can’t upload PSD files via web browser. Is the issue a thing for anyone else?

  • Rickenharp Alexander Gräfe (@Rickenharp) reported

    @fab1An @CogSciApps I rarely link to files, but if I do, I use Dropbox, that should work on iOS. Worst case: set up a WebDAV server for it. For my use case, linking calendar events, contacts, Bear notes, web pages and Things todos, an iOS app would be a godsend.

  • campbellsl A vaccinated Susan Campbell (@campbellsl) reported

    I'm about to give up on @dropbox. I have to go looking for files, and it isn't syncing and I haven't been able to get the help I need to fix it. Any one use a different file storage app that allows them to get to their files from any computer? Thanks for your recommendations.

  • ShelleyElwood Ant Murdering She Devil (@ShelleyElwood) reported

    @DropboxSupport Your integration with Pixlr is BROKEN, It only grudgingly will open Dropbox files and won't save to your app AT ALL. How the hell do you not know about this?

  • Desperate_Icon Self Man Made (@Desperate_Icon) reported

    @DropboxSupport And just to confirm Apple Support were more helpful with a Dropbox problem that Dropbox were.

  • The_Exproject ExprojectEX🔞 (@The_Exproject) reported

    @ExpressiveSoles I had a lot of issues with Dropbox AND Google Drive, specially Google drive with the bandwidth. But dropbox can suddenly have sync issues. I say research a bit into them.

  • NilsEngelsen Nils Johan Engelsen (@NilsEngelsen) reported

    If you often work on @overleaf, it's worth knowing (as I just learnt) that you can link your Overleaf account to Dropbox and sync all your projects to your Dropbox. That way, if there is an outage, say, on a deadline day (like just now), at least you have a local copy.

  • bardsong Shantastic (@bardsong) reported

    @awallens I'm getting that same error. It also does it in Dropbox. I thought maybe I had too many books, but now... I'm just glad it's not just me!'

  • adamdicarlo Adam DiCarlo (@adamdicarlo) reported

    @ELLIOTTCABLE That's really terrible! 😞 Haven't used SyncThing, though I was thinking of switching to it from Dropbox😬How many machines were syncing? I'm curious what happened, when/if you figure it out. Like, did one machine lose the data and essentially sync the loss to the others, or what

  • DonaldVinh Don Vinh (@DonaldVinh) reported

    Dropbox users: Dropbox sent an email about compatibility issues with the new Mac iOS. Any advice? Don't upgrade the iOS for now? Thanks.

  • _kdoyle_ ؜ (@_kdoyle_) reported

    also I have always been scared of using OneDrive because of the issues I had with connecting to it when it first came out. I pay for 1TB on Dropbox and I have google drive as well. this is the first semester I’ve started using it and this file was supposed to

  • neilmitch Neil Mitchell (@neilmitch) reported

    @AdobeCare Files saved to local SSD (Dropbox but all files local). Mac OS 12.2. ID version 17.0.1. No issues with PS or AI. Problem across multiple derivative documents.

  • lukestein ⑆Luke Stein⑈ (@lukestein) reported

    @ATabarrok Yes but • If you use selective sync or smart sync (I do, and sounds like that’s how @causalinf got screwed) you’re in trouble • If something gets deleted from Dropbox online (yeah, coauthors do this by mistake) 😬

  • Desperate_Icon Self Man Made (@Desperate_Icon) reported

    @DropboxSupport Doesn’t that seem like a bit of a problem? Am I the only person that’s managed to screw this up?

  • jerekapyaho Jere Käpyaho (@jerekapyaho) reported

    Not yet. Waiting to clear out my Dropbox and OneDrive folders (their kernel extensions will be deprecated in macOS 12.3) and move to iCloud Drive, and a fix for the Bluetooth battery-draining bug.

  • mountain_ghosts lando contrasts (@mountain_ghosts) reported

    I just deleted ~20GB of stuff from dropbox on one machine, and on another machine the files are no longer listed but the space usage reported by `du` hasn't gone down?

  • andrewericparks Andrew Parks (@andrewericparks) reported

    [checking email] company whose services I use on a consistent basis and frankly have never had any problems with: “hey just checking in, how are we doing? :)” me: shut up dropbox how dare u speak to me

  • hpbackupp sweetness🍯 (@hpbackupp) reported

    I’m unable to login to my main so if anyone has dm me on there please send me a message here! I’ll have to verify my identity before I can get back in so it’ll probably be tomorrow. I’m still doing all my current deals and have all my content going into Dropbox and google drive!

  • leetlikelime leetlikelime (@leetlikelime) reported

    @kokev @skry @LeahLundqvist That’s DROPBOX. You literally drag and drop files to put them on dropbox’s server. Crypto: download metamask, upload electric bill for KYC, spend buckets of money and finally pray that some 14 year old from St. Petersburg doesn’t hack your keys. Very user-centric, huh?

  • machiavillain_1 MachiaVillain ⚡🍌 (@machiavillain_1) reported

    Is @Dropbox web search functionality down for anyone else?

  • NaomiLWood Naomi Langford-Wood (@NaomiLWood) reported

    @RegulaYsewijn It’s your choice! I use Dropbox and other providers for stuff but as I have all my books on archive they are also on the external hard drive. Before there was a cloud there was an external drive. Clouds are only server farms somewhere in a building somewhere

  • nonplayablekyle Nonplayable (@nonplayablekyle) reported

    @CurtNaddy @AaronBellVA From a security standpoint it's even worse. The biggest issue isn't that someone could save and republish your monkeys, it's that the line of code that points to the dropbox could be code that does literally anything, because it's a trusting platform.

  • eyez_eva eva eyez (@eyez_eva) reported

    @KoudijsHenk @mr_Smith_Econ The dropbox with the report wont open. Cant post it if I haven't got the link source. I try to provide the link sources. Please fix it and do send it again. Its important, and thanks.

  • CASborough Clifford Scarborough (@CASborough) reported

    @Dropbox Hey #Dropbox, please advise users if they opt to let your program backup their Desktop and Documents folders that you will b moving them from their native location into the Dropbox folder. Google Drive (@googledrive) has not this problem. It backs up files in place.

  • coramdeo16_11 meeeeeeeda (@coramdeo16_11) reported

    @TommyShakes Dropbox. I have a terrible track record with losing stuff. So, Dropbox.
