Visit the Support page while you're NOT signed in to a Dropbox account, including these forums, and you'll see an option for…

@"Hannah" wrote:... it seems that this behavior is expected for shared folders that are not owned by the person trying to move them. When did this change, and more importantly, why? It was never like that before as I've moved many shared folders that are owned by other people into a common Shared folder in my Dropbox.

@"deadwaydt" wrote:... but when sent even to myself the link is broken into to lines and the second part is not a hyperlink so it does not work when clicked on. That's an issue with how your mail client is displaying the link and not something that Dropbox can control.

@"Philip Wade" wrote:I notice there is another option to post "I have an idea" where we could post how about re-instating this facility. Make a post here: * https://www.dropboxforum.com/t5/Dropbox-ideas/idb-p/101002013 Just one post, and everyone else adds on to it. It won't help if everyone makes their own.

@"swanee01" wrote:how can i get entire hard drive on this computer on to dropbox plus. Dropbox doesn't do that. It can back up select folders from your user profile, but it can't back up your entire drive. You would need to manually copy or move the files you want into your Dropbox folder and allow them to sync to your…

@"Tegrity2009" wrote:My staff and I were getting errors yesterday when trying to utilize Excel for the web via Dropbox. ... Today we are still experiencing the same errors. What errors are you seeing? Please be specific. Provide a screenshot if you can.

@"Tegrity2009" wrote:Dropbox web version reported issues not working yesterday. It does not say issues have been reported today but web version is still not loading or usable. It's working fine for me. What problem, exactly, are you having? Have you cleared your browser's cache/browsing history or tried another browser as…

@"hrobinett" wrote: I am trying to organize my mobile photos that have been uploaded to dropbox by putting them in a folder with each year. However, when I click on the month in the "Photos" section - there is no option to "move". If I "copy" to the 2023 folder, it creates duplicates. Is there an option to move a group of…

@"JSDDropping" wrote: Is there any work around to this (e.g. an option to substitute characters in the download paths that windows encounters and doesnt like) ... The only option would be to rename those folders to remove the colons so they can sync. Dropbox won't replace the characters.

@"ainmo" wrote:Plus, I've found a virus that resides on dropbox cache ... It's likely a false positive due to the way files are chunked and stored prior to syncing. It's best to add the .dropbox.cache folder to your antivirus exclusions list. If it was an actual virus, your antivirus would still pick it up in the Dropbox…

@"nainishb" wrote:I'm wondering if I delete photos from my iphone does that get reflected in the dropbox ... Deleting a photo from your camera roll/gallery will not delete it from Dropbox. Likewise deleting a photo from the Camera Uploads folder in Dropbox will not delete it from your phone.

@"JVN" wrote:How can you permanently delete it from the Version History? As stated by Hannah above, it's not possible to delete the version history of a file, whether it's a single entry or the entire version history.

@"Mickey T." wrote:I have no idea how it was moved inside of the other parent folder. If you were accessing the folders on your local drive, it's pretty easy to move one folder into another without realizing it. I see it on the network drives in the office all the time. A user will be moving their cursor to a folder with…

@"Jay666" wrote:How to obtain the web URL of a file from a file located in the Dropbox folder on a local computer using Mac Finder? You can right-click a file in your local Dropbox folder and select Copy Dropbox Link. This will create a shared link to that file. There are no options for formatting the link, using markdown…

@"vevaw" wrote:There's no sign of it in Deleted Items. Is there anything listed on your Events page? I don't know whether or not to upgrade to a higher version of Dropbox (am on Basic) in order to get phone support ... In order to get phone support you would need to upgrade to a Business team plan which has a minimum of…

@"karianthonyceo" wrote:Your administrator has deleted your Megan Monroe Dropbox account. A team admin on your team has removed you from the team, which deletes the account. You need to contact the team admin and ask them to restore your account. Act quickly because they only have 7 days from the deletion to restore your…

@"nichs2" wrote:Every time I log into this Dropbox account from the same browser I receive an email ... If you uncheck the Remember me option when signing in, you'll receive that email every time. Only checking that box and allowing the browser to remember your session will prevent the emails (after the first one).

@"j2z" wrote:I DID NOT initiate any deletions from my dropbox. YOU may not have, but something on your computer did. Applications you use create and delete files all the time. If you're using an application with files in your Dropbox, and that application creates others files while its in use, you may see messages like…

@"j2z" wrote:What does the message indicate? You or some process on your computer deleted a file in your Dropbox folder. Dropbox is (basically) asking you to confirm the deletion because if the file is deleted, it will be deleted from your Dropbox account and any other devices you sync with, including those belonging to…

@"itevans" wrote:I have the same issue and see no solution for selecting preferences and therefore selective sync The top of your screenshot appears to be cut off. Does it not show the full window, or are there no icons above the Sync History and Activity tabs? Or does that screenshot show the very top of your monitor and…

@"hanspj" wrote: Hence I hoped to go back an review up to 5 years. Possible at all? I can pay to get the log if available. No, that's not possible. The only data available is what you'll find on the Events page.

@"chartav" wrote:When I log in, I see the Create button for two seconds, and then this is what I see: Clear your browser's cache/browsing history and try again, or try another browser. I'd also suggest trying in a browser with no extensions enabled, to make sure there's nothing interfering with the page.

@"abhishek_mtb" wrote:Actually, previously mobile devices were counted, that's why I am confused. Dropbox has never counted mobile devices for referrals. It has always required the install of the desktop application on a unique computer.

@"Ray1943" wrote:I have nothing in my own Dropbox folder (old files deleted and removed). So why does Dropbox say I am out of space? Either you still have files in your Dropbox (checked your Backups page?) or the shared folder that you're trying to join is larger than the available space in your account. You need to have…

@"Larry 1" wrote:But how do I see the folder being shared with me to download the files, if I cannot get passed the window wanting me to upgrade? You can't. You need to ask the person that shared it with you to send you a view-only shared link instead.

@"KlarAndCo" wrote:I hit enter, it gives me a much longer URL. Which link are you entering into Amazon; the short one or the long one? You likely can't enter the long link as it's not a permanent link. The only method Dropbox supports is the short link, which includes the rlkey parameter and results in a redirect. If…

@"KlarAndCo" wrote:Here is a screenshot of an example Are you trying to use that link (changed to raw=1) in Amazon, or are you opening that link yourself, copying the resulting link from the redirect (the long link from your original post) and using that in Amazon? That long link generated from the redirect is likely not a…

@"Storm2" wrote:I am having the same issue and it is happing on Chrome and Edge. It's worth testing on a browser other than Chrome or Edge. Both Chrome and Edge are based on Chromium. Typically, if you're experiencing a browser-related issue in one, you'll experience it in the other as well. Try Firefox or some other…

@"TMain" wrote:... surely theres a way I can restore my account without the worry of them having to accidentally delete it? Only the team admin can handle this. There's no way for you to do it yourself. Not even Dropbox can do it. Only the team admin can.
