I can't have the two areas I have developed over time, linked? If you're not on a Business plan (i.e. a plan meant for teams of three or more people) then no, you can…

@"DanaLinder" wrote:Is there a way to set a default so Dropbox doesn't prompt me about properties? Is this the prompt you're referring to? If so, that's not from Dropbox. It's from your operating system.

@"bunnywarren" wrote:Is there a way to disable auto-update on the Dropbox Windows application or set it to run at a particular time? No, there isn't. Dropbox will push updates as necessary. There's no way to control when they occur.

@"Enialb2" wrote:I would love to be able to link my two accounts, and continue having two separate dropbox home folders on my machine. Dropbox has ended support for free teams and have begun disbanding all existing free teams. The only way to link two accounts is to be part of a team, and the only team accounts still…

@"KR22" wrote:... I can't access the shared folder because it is too big. Do I really have to buy a silly account to access a folder that isn't even mine? If the shared folder is larger than the space in your account, then yes. * https://help.dropbox.com/accounts-billing/space-storage/storage-space If you don't need edit…

@"PaulFay" wrote: Two of the accounts are Dropbox business, and one is personal. Is there no way to link all three? No, there isn't. You can link one personal and one Business. That's it.

In general, saving files with the same name would keep the shared link active. Just keep in mind that with some applications, while saving over an existing file, they'll first delete the original file before saving the new version with the same name. In such cases, if Dropbox were to sync fast enough, it can register the…

@"Kase_Kuchen" wrote:Remember, this is rocket science so I'll need simple instructions! While it's not rocket science, it's not simple, either. You're referring to a feature of the Dropbox API, which is used by programmers to allow their applications to integrate with Dropbox. There is a webhooks section, but it's used for…

@"DCS Graphics" wrote:... there is no option to update from within my existing dropbox app. This is because the Dropbox app will update automatically, provided nothing has been done to prevent that process from occurring. The only way to manually update is to simply install a newer version over the existing. There is also…

@"GREG CHICK" wrote:The help says login in look at file size Colum, if you don't see it hover over and select the size colum. I do not see any Colum, nothing pops up or down. Click the down arrow on any column header (other than Name) and you can choose Size, Type, etc.

@"pcuser" wrote:... i just point it at my folders and BOOM! backed up. This bit of software cant even backup if the files are not where DropBox programmers have decided they must be. That's not how the backup feature works with Dropbox. It doesn't back up those folders from their original location and just copy the data to…

@"Bckz3828" wrote: I can access my vault on the computer or web browser but does not work through my iPhone app You'll need to be more specific. Is the Vault folder shown in your folder list? If so, what happens when you try to access it? Are you getting an error message? Without details about what you're experiencing, we…

@"Erin7" wrote:If I update it in my account, will it send anything to the old email address? If your old email address wasn't verified with Dropbox, you would need to verify the current email before you can change it, which would send something to the old email. You wouldn't lose access to the account, but you could if…

@"rose_lumenora" wrote:How can I tell how they were moved, if they were downloaded, etc? You can see the events that occurred on your Events page. You can see the web sessions and devices linked to your account, along with their IP addresses, on your Security page. There's no way to see the specific IP address that has…

@"Euergetes" wrote:Or if it did it was overwritten when I changed the name. Rename the file back to what it was (the folder too, possibly, not sure) and THEN check the version history.

@"rdb0122" wrote:So this isn't just an Excel issue, ... Dropbox needs to look into this though ... It's not a Dropbox icon. It's from OneDrive. You likely have OneDrive and Dropbox trying to sync the same data, which will never work correctly.

@"tomvanpuyvelde" wrote:The situation is now that I got acces to my files again, but as a member from his Dropbox business profile. All I want is to restore everything to how it was. Your friend needs to convert your account back to an individual account. If he just removes you from the team, it deletes your account and he…

@"Michels1992" wrote:Someone without a dropbox account would like to share a document with me. I created a Dropbox Folder and shared it with him, but he could not upload something without registration. Send them a file request instead. * https://help.dropbox.com/files-folders/share/create-file-request

@"andreasfmpro" wrote:I am very much concerned that they will carry out their threats and disable my account even though I am not over my quota. Dropbox does not, and never has, done that.

@"andreasfmpro" wrote:How do I get them to STOP sending me these bogus email messages, leave me alone, and maintain my free account without fear of losing my files? I will NOT be blackmailed by ANYONE, including Dropbox! You're not being blackmailed, you won't lose your files, and the only thing that will happen is you…

@"George A." wrote:The only option I see on the Backups tab pertaining to this External Drives Backups "Feature" is to "Show setup notifications when new external drives drives are plugged in" which doesn't sound like disabling the "Feature" PERMANENTLY. That is exactly how you disable it. By disabling the setup…

@"SteveDreaming" wrote:Does the recipient of a shared folder have to pay for Dropbox capacity to be able to read a folder? Yes, because when you invite someone to a shared folder they're not accessing the folder in your account. They get their own copy of the folder in their account, and need to have enough available space…

@"giuliavargiu" wrote:ho installato dropbox su pc con windows 11 ma dopo qualche giorno è comparso un simbolo strano accanto ai file , una specie di scatola marrone che mi impediva di aprire e vedere i file, inoltre si era fermata la sincronizzazione.

As Jay mentioned, Dropbox doesn't alter your files. It doesn't (and can't) make your videos blurry when you upload them. If they're blurry in…

@"VineDrop" wrote:I have literally nothing in my box! I have some things in my shared folder, but nothing that wasn't there when I started moving things, and none of them uploaded into the box. Do you have the computer backup feature enabled? If so, when you were moving files out of Dropbox to your Desktop, you would have…

@"MuraliKarthikeyan" wrote:Does dropbox provide an option to hide this icon from the menu bar in someway. No. The icon is used to access the Dropbox application, and to show you the current status of your files.

@"kkcljanice" wrote:There is now a brown storage box icons next to the dropbox files, but no options to smart sync neither. That's not a Dropbox icon. It's likely from OneDrive or some other cloud application, and it's probably interfering with Dropbox.
