Dropbox to open and view them?
Dropbox doesn't send files via a text message. If all they did was send you a link to a file (and they happened to use a text message to do it) you'll need to open the link on a computer.
I got 3 text messages in my phone, and each had video files with the word Dropbox in the link, and my friend said he used Dropbox to send them. I opened one successfully in my phone messages, and then forwarded all 3 to my email, so the files were in the computer, but still couldn't open the other 2. I kept getting an error message saying Dropbox couldn't find the files, and I can't figure out how to get them in Dropbox. Thanks for your help!
It isnt Dropbox thats done that Tommy.
As Rich said, Dropbox does not send files via Text.
I suggest going back to your friend and asking for the other two files to be resent to you.
Thanks for the info. Will do!
My old Windows Vista pc is on its death bed. Can I sync all my Dropbox pictures with my Samsung Galaxy tablet since it is Android? I don't have the Dropbox app on my tablet. I'm sure I must get the app to transfer pictures, if it can be done at all.
