Synchronization Problem We work as a team using Dropbox and store our data on an external drive. Everything had been working fine until now. Now my Mac is constantly indexing / syncing. It’s a new device, a new external hard drive, and I have a stable and fast internet connection. The external hard drive is formatted as…
Title: Dropbox image viewer resets to 100% zoom when moving to the next image I am experiencing a new problem with the Dropbox web image viewer that did not occur previously. I use Dropbox to review and share large numbers of photography images. When I open a folder and click on the first image, it displays correctly using…
I'm running Dropbox (paid personal account) on Windows 10 (version 10.0.19045.7291) and the right-click context menu has completely disappeared from Windows Explorer. The sync overlay icons (green checkmarks etc.) are still showing correctly, but no Dropbox options appear when right-clicking files or folders. Here's…
I run the Dropbox desktop app on a Dell Inspiron 15 3530 laptop under Windows 11 Pro. I recently installed a program and gave its link the same permissions (total access for myself and INTERACTIVE) I give my other apps. However, this app's link refuses to sync. I've clicked the Dropbox icon (with its current red flag) and…
Out of the blue, while I was using DropBox on the website, the search just started to not work properly. Some files show up, but they do so in a random order, and the results vary based on capitalization. My files are all photos, but when I click on that bar only some show up as well, despite the fact that I've checked…

I'm on Dropbox 254.4.2518 on Windows 10 and I can't update to any newer version. Every time I manually try to install a newer version, it fails with error code -1073741819 and the message "Installation failed with an unknown error." I've tried installing multiple newer versions using the standard installer, the full…
Payment went through for 2TB and I don’t want it anymore. I would like my plan downgraded and a refund for the payment immediately. Please guide me on what to do here.
I have a personal account and a team account. The team account is hosted on my Mac running macOS Tahoe. When I try to log in to my personal dropbox the team account opens. How can I open the personal account?
I manually upload my photos from my iPhone using the Dropbox app and once a batch is uploaded, I manually have to find the same set of photos on the iPhotos app to delete them. There should be an option to “delete after upload” in the dropbox app. note: I am not talking about the automated camera upload (sync) option.
Many professionals rely on Finder's Date Modified column to quickly identify active projects. Currently, Dropbox desktop updates or metadata refreshes can cause thousands of folders to receive the same "Date Modified" timestamp, even though the folder contents have not changed. This effectively wipes out one of the most…
Recipients that are CC'd automatically receive a confirmation email that a document has been completed. However, if you select the option that all recipients receive a pdf copy attachment once completed they receive a double email. One saying the document has been completed and another with the attachment. The settings do…
I have a closed group of radio stations, and we share .wav files. It's legal under radio licencing. Our file names are not descriptive (database generated 6 digit key). The meta data field "title" and perhaps "length" as optional columns would be superb. I can see this same request being helpful for photos.
It's very cumbersome to navigate across the old versions in the history of a file that is very frequently changed. For instance, the history of a text note edited in an application that uses auto-save (e.g. Obsidian) will look like this: (it's actually even longer, I had to cut the middle part!) While saving a copy often…
