@"albertina" wrote: Hi I have the same problem!! Charged twice for 3 months! Who can I talk to??? You need to contact Dropxbox Support directly. This is a public forum and billing/account issues cannot be handled here.

There's nothing to "fix" because there's nothing broken. You can already export emails from your chosen mail client to Dropbox, if your mail client supports it.

"Is this a phishing file in the dropbox app? Is it a false warning by Avast?" It's a false positive. That file isn't from the Dropbox website. When you use the icon in the Dropbox app to visit the website, the app directs you to a locally generated HMTL file which then redirects to the Dropbox website. That's the HTML file…

In the Adobe app, tap Files at the bottom. At the top left you'll see Locations. Tap that and you'll see an option for Dropbox. Tap it to sign in. If you're already signed in, swipe left on Dropbox and you'll see an option to sign out.

I just updated my iPad to the latest iOS (13.1.3) and saw the same problem. Linking Adode Reader to my Dropbox account first, from within the Adobe app, resolved the issue. Try that. If it's already connected, signout of Dropbox from within the Adobe app, then reconnect the apps.

It's working fine for me. Have you restarted the iPad yet? Removed and reinstalled both Dropbox and Adobe Reader?

Correct, on both accounts. A Dropbox account is required to access a shared folder, while a share link does not require an account. A share link is accessible to anyone that has the link.

A red X on a file or folder indicates a problem with that file or folder. A red X on the Dropbox icon could mean the same, or something else entirely. You need to hover your cursor over the Dropbox icon in your system tray (Windows) or menu bar (Mac) and see what Dropbox is reporting. The Bad Files Check page is currently…

@"Dennis01" wrote:When you say significantly changing locations, what distances are we talking about? Apple only allows applications to remain active in the background for a few minutes.

You did the right thing. The Share an Idea area is just another section of the forum meant specifically for ideas and feature requests.

Go into the Privacy settings on your phone and make sure Location Services is enabled and active for Dropbox. If it's not, Camera Uploads won't upload in the background. (Which ties into Walter's question about significantly changing locations, as that's the trigger for the background process.)

For starters, I'd suggest posting on the thread specific to the version you're having a problem with. * https://www.dropboxforum.com/t5/Desktop-client-builds/Stable-Build-83-4-152/td-p/371716 Beyond that, you should open a ticket with Support. * https://www.dropbox.com/support

@"Jane", the integration that Ashu is referring to is Chooser. @"Ashu7878", you probably want to post this in the Developer section of the forums. * https://www.dropboxforum.com/t5/API-Support-Feedback/bd-p/101000014 I'll move the thread over there.

Yes. Either one of the subfolders is shared, or the folder that you're trying to share is within a folder that is already shared. Remember, it's not enough to just remove the members of any share you find. You have to unshare the folder entirely. Even with all members removed, the folder is still shared with you as the…

Are you able to drag to any other location in the Sidebar, or is it only Dropbox that's affected?

You can look at your Events page, or you can restore one of the files and then look at its version history. Also note that if you've recently renamed a folder, you may receive a notification that a number of files were deleted, since Dropbox sees a rename as a deletion (old name) followed by an addition (new name).
