@John M.153 wrote: I am wondering if Dropbox keeps duplicates/multiple copies of my files on their servers (for redundancy purposes)?

@"rbkrdf" wrote:how can I make it so that I can see the Dropbox comments and, ideally, the Word comments at the same time? It's two completely separate commenting systems, so you can't. You need to view the Dropbox comments on the Dropbox website, and the Word comments within Word.

@"desmond_singh" wrote:I'm wondering how I can make it such that when I run the BASH script, the 22 unzipped files and the large, concatenated file are automatically saved onto the dropbox application and NOT my HDD. You can't. That's not how Dropbox works. It's not a cloud-based folder. It's a regular folder on your local…

@"coen van veenendaal" wrote: That’s weird. I had the account for at least 10 years but apparently the name was changed in 2018. No idea how that happened 😱 If you ever joined a team (free when they existed, or Business, your Dropbox folder would have been renamed to Dropbox ([team name]). If you also had a separate…

@"coen van veenendaal" wrote:How can I change the name of my main Dropbox account folder? You can't. The folder name is set by Dropbox and cannot be changed.

@"Edgemont" wrote:The alias of that folder is visible on my Desktop, as are certain other alias folders for other folders inside that main Dropbox folder. Your aliases are outside of Dropbox, looking in. That's fine as Dropbox doesn't know they exist. Dropbox only knows about the actual folders inside your Dropbox folder.…

@"Anastasiia_U" wrote:I mean a folder that is automatically created when you create an application through the app center. Is there no way to share it to another account?

@"Anastasiia_U" wrote:Can you please tell me if there is a way to share the application folder in 2021? Do you mean the Apps folder and subfolders that are created when you link a third-party application or service to your account? If so, those are special folders and cannot be shared.

@"meerkat" wrote:The problem is that the system tray icon doesn't prompt with any menu of any sort on being clicked. Try a CTRL-left click to open the legacy menu. If that works, you might consider exiting the app and restarting it.

@"Joniedee3" wrote: How do I select all files in folder using iOS There is no Select All option in the mobile app. You'll need to tap each file to select them all.

@"Misty-Rose" wrote:I may have had an active free-trial in which I consented to, but where is the warning before the full subscription amount is going to come out! The warning is before you start the trial. By starting the trial you're agreeing to a paid subscription if you don't cancel. You weren't conned.

@"sgclark" wrote:The other weird thing is that even though I installed the 124.4.4912 version via those 'stable' Download links you shared, the version on my desktop/computer after a few minutes seems to update itself to version 125.3.3463. You have the Early Releases option enabled on your account, which automatically…

@"VS_DXB" wrote:Pls advise detailed step-by-step how to disable 2-F auth and then I'll be able to enable it with the new phone. The link I provided above explains how to access your account using your backup codes, as well as how to disable two-step authentication once you get signed in.

@"VS_DXB" wrote:lost phone. How to disable 2-factor authentication without the old phone and auth app? You need to use the emergency backup code(s) you were given when you activated two-step authentication, or you would need another active device already signed in to your account. Without either of those, there's no way to…

@"reiner_rosin" wrote:I guess Dropbox is not periodically polling for file changes but is waiting for a signal from Windows. That's exactly how it happens. Dropbox registers itself with the operating system to receive change notifications for everything in the Dropbox folder. It's not polling the folder itself.

Assuming it's…

@"reiner_rosin" wrote:Do you have any idea, why Dropbox doesn't detect the file is ready to sync, even within a 5 minute range? Usually when this happens it because another application still has a lock on the file and Dropbox can't access it.

@"reiner_rosin" wrote:I wonder if there is a way to force Dropbox to do the sync? It should be done within the batch file No, that's not possible. There's no way to force Dropbox to sync. It just syncs automatically while it's open and when there isn't a lock on the files due to them being in use. As soon as your file is…

Removing all the members doesn't unshare a folder; it just remove the people from the share. The folder…

@"gkgriffith" wrote:However, upon submitting the code, Dropbox says my code has already been used. ... How can I resolve this? You'll need to contact Quicken and they'll likely need to issue you a new code. They've been handing out "used" codes for years now, and it's something that only they can resolve for you.
