Dropbox account suspended for excessive public-link traffic I get this message: “Public links have been temporarily suspended for generating excessive traffic” on shared links. Quick…
Hi everyone! I use the API https://content.dropboxapi.com/2/files/upload to upload files. After uploading, I get the file ID. I'm trying to figure it out, but it doesn't work out, how do I get public and temporary links to uploaded files? By public links, I mean that anyone who has this link can see them indefinitely.…
My SSD with my DB folder on it got corrupt, and so some folders in my DB folder were missing. I tried to replace them with a back up before really thinking about it, and don't want to accidentally tell the cloud that those missing folders are supposed to be gone/deleted. Either way, now the dropbox application itself…
I stopped syncing the start of last week & now I have lost a lot of my information out of dropbox, how can I get the information back?
My Dropbox fails to sync uploads. I can restart it, and then it wakes up and syncs. I am using Sequoia 15.5 (24F74). It generally seems to sync downloads. However, the message about Dtropbox being up-to-date is generally wrong, and can't imagine how the Dropbox coders can ignore the fact that it is nearly always wrong!

How do i fix this? EDIT: Fixed!
I use dropbox occasionally. I have a free account, one I've had for years. This morning I logged in to access some files a friend shared w/me & dropbox will not let me access it unless I upgrade to some "plan". That page is the same page with which I was greeted upon logging in. I'm at about 650 mg of my 2G free account…
I have been away from Dropbox for a while, but need to start using again to share photo folders. I have uploaded photos in folders to Dropbox, and when I want to share them, there is no "box" that appears to click on (used to be located next to the file when the file is clicked or hoovered over) that would say "share". I'm…
