When I upload a zip file to Dropbox the person I'm sharing with receives the file already unzipped. I need it to stay zipped.
Some of my team members can't view the open in - finder tab. I want everyone to have this ability so when people share links with each other they can quickly switch to Finder and sync and item. They're all signed into the Dropbox app as well as the Finder Dropbox so I'm not sure why I can see this and they can't.

Hello all. I was wondering if anyone knew how (or if it's even possible) to set up a shared DropBox folder to play a video file automatically instead of having to click on the video twice. Based on Google searches, I'm guessing it's a no, but I thought I'd at least ask here since I've been having trouble navigating Google…
I'm having trouble downloading a PDF from my own site. It isn't overly ******. I uploaded it in the first place. Sharing is on. Looking into the Share/Settings for that file I notice that the ability to "Disable Downloads" is set to OFF and greyed out as it is a premium function. I assume this means that the file should be…
