Hello,
A client wants to send me about 150 large files via Dropbox. They are about 2GB each, so if I try to download them all at once, I get the inevitable "too big to .zip" message. I am currently selecting each one, then downloading it...which is very tedious. I absolutely detest any kind of "file syncing", but I wondered if there's a way I can create a nice empty folder on my PC, and, presumably using the Dropbox app, tell Dropbox to 'sync' it with the client's folder - without Dropbox, during its "syncing" process, thinking "ooh, you want to sync your empty folder with that folder full of files. I'll delete all those files on the Dropbox server for you so it's nicely synced".
So does anyone know if it's possible for me to do this? (To tell Dropbox to download all the client's files into the folder on my PC - and then obviously I'd unlink any connection between the folders, because otherwise some kind of disastrous "syncing" might happen, and nobody wants that!)
Thanks in advance for any suggestions or help!
