Dropbox Issues Reports
Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:
-
brb (@LordKabelo) reportedWatching Linus complain about GitHub's "terrible user experience" & all I can think about is how he has no business downloading scripts off GitHub in the first place. Hermano this is a version control system, not Dropbox.
-
Kev (@CozyCryp) reported@Dropbox Your macOS app adding itself to the startup/login items any time you open the app is the most stupid and greedy move. It's unnecessary and annoying, please remove it.
-
William Henry (@Williamg_henry) reported@DropboxSupport Hi, I moved my Dropbox Folder from My Passport > (E:)\Dropbox to My Book (N:)\Dropbox. However, Dropbox Syncs to (E:) > My PC (DESKTOP-H709SRD) > Desktop > Empty Folder Any suggestions on why this happens Dropbox tells me there are no syncing errors Sync's okay to (N:) Thank you
-
Bryceman (@lordbryce) reported@BenABender I've had dropbox issues with clip studio on iPad- it's an issue they know of as well. Dropbox also gets backed up uploading files from the iPad, which can cause issues with syncing. I ended up using the clip studio cloud service for things I really need to make sure get saved.
-
🎃 And-boo! Jacobs 👻 (@drewjakeprof) reportednothing like that RUSH of adrenaline when *none* of the files in your dropbox folder will open on the new hand-me-down computer! (it's fine, it was a syncing issue [I guess] but WHOO those few minutes were a trip!)
-
Chris Klink, PhD (@ChrizKlink) reported@DropboxSupport v132.4.3800, installed update as fix attempt; Bandwidth is unlimited up/down but I also tried manually setting it to a high number. DB is now downloading, but extremely slow and regularly stalls on 'Downloading xxxxx files' for many minutes or reports 0.0 kb/sec.
-
Joe Latham (@Lookhappy) reported@BenABender I have problems exporting from Procreate to Dropbox - I read it was a Dropbox issue. My workaround has been to use another (free) app callled Documents, and I save to there then share to Dropbox. Very annoying
-
Bachelor the Grandpa (@bachelorgrandpa) reported@DropboxSupport having trouble dragging images and pdf's into dropbox now, chrome pops it up as a pdf, were there any updates or quick solutions for this rather than disabling pdf visibility in chrome?
-
Whats this? (@MrWoodyArrives) reported@expandinator @AkujiSaitoVA IS the dropbox not working?
-
Lesley Chang (@LesleyChang) reported@Dropbox The status for Dropbox says it's up, but we're experiencing an outage - can't even reach the website... Is this a new development?
-
Dropbox Support (@DropboxSupport) reported@CozyCryp ...2/2 and then select "Preferences" from the menu > Verify that the box next to "Start Dropbox on system startup" is unchecked. If the issue still persists, please let us know.
-
STAR (@STARDDED) reported@DropboxSupport how does one resolve the issue where one opens a document on dropbox web using Excel web for example and get a blank page?
-
jo 🎨 (@LUVSCENES) reportedhey @DropboxSupport, i've received an error saying: Error (5xx) and my files arent syncing, what can i do?
-
Helmut Pailer (@nopolitics_hp) reported@DropboxSupport My Dropbox Account has been disabled. I don't know why. I cannot login. You need to login for Dropbox support. Seriously. No support with email no support with telephone number. I need Dropbox for my ordination. I am not very happy about that.
-
Ivan Pope (@ivan007) reported@ScrivenerApp @Documentally Christian, I’ve been syncing to Dropbox for years, no problem.
-
Dolly Decadatia (@DollyDecadatia) reportedIt’s probably gonna be ala cart or “here grab this giant Dropbox for x amount of money” going forward. I don’t have the spoons for the clipsites. I’m gonna keep the accounts open for verification purposes but I’m sick of the slow *** pay outs.
-
David Justice (@DavidJusticePho) reported@DropboxSupport Just tried with Firefox and had the same issue
-
Michael Flynn (@flynnpolsci) reported@dbgreenwald @profmusgrave This was a concern for me too as I have a couple coauthors who use Word. I did have some trouble with something to do with syncing tex references across Dropbox with coauthors once, but I can't remember the exact issue. But may want to watch out for that if coauthoring w/dropbox.
-
Pokémon : Let's Steal Eevee? (@meatnosarcasm) reportedSo UWI ignored my direct deposit and sent a cheque instead without notifying me. But cuz UWI Scotia is now a sales centre, I can't drop off cheques in the Dropbox. But the UWI Scotia ATMs have a problem accepting UWI branded cheques. Lol.
-
Onur (@onursiezma) reportedI am wondering if anyone out there having issue uploading files to dropbox since yesterday? They still haven't fixed the issue and I need to find another cloud service as I am worried about reliability of @Dropbox @DropboxSupport
-

David Justice (@DavidJusticePho) reported@DropboxSupport I'm having trouble uploading to my Dropbox in any folder. I tried diff folders, even my root folder. Nothing. Paid plan, 2tb, no notices of exceeding limits. It automatically downloads the file I drag into the browser and even nothing happens with upload button.
-
malia bender (@MaliaBender) reported@rachaelwarke I’ve been having trouble with dropbox too, think it’s a problem with the app. I’m waiting till tomorrow and work with it then. Got to make supper soon.
-
Chris Klink, PhD (@ChrizKlink) reportedMy @Dropbox seems to have issues on #Mac #BigSur. Syncing is excruciatingly slow and keeps stalling completely. This seems to be a widespread problem. Any known solutions? (already tried fixing permissions & rebooting)
-
Jason Burns (@jasonburns) reportedI can’t upload to @Dropbox on two different machines - one local and one remote with teamviewer - anyone else having this issue? @DropboxSupport
-
Onur (@onursiezma) reported@DropboxSupport Well i spoke with customer service and I was told there is a problem with Dropbox and engineers are working on it. I am on extremely tight deadline and now I have to find another option to send files to clients.
