The Dropbox app on my iPhone X iOS 12.1.2 wont open any file type. All files sync fine from desktop and show up on the mobile app with a thumbnail image preview, but when tapped to open the loading graphic just keeps spinning. Could have coincided with iOS update.

Online Only Doesnt appear as an option, need to free up space on my computer so Dropbox can sync.

Hello! Can someont please clarify why each time Dropbox App starts it askes for my computer login and password? Why does it even NEED my computer password? See the screeenshot in attach. It's in Russian, but it tells us to enter my computer login and password "for Dropbox app to fuction properly". While it functions…

Any idea what has happened? . FYI, this is on a laptop personal PC not…

After years of successful use Dropbox stopped working on my Mac Pro a few days ago. It keeps trying to launch (I see it in the menu bar) and then immediately quits. I can't manually launch it. I get the error message 'Couldn't Start Dropbox' - see grab. I don't have a Firewall running or anti-virus software. I have seen…

I have a 1400 files in a single folder on dropbox, called reports. There are roughly 4 report types. The report types are named in a way that I can't simply sort the folder alphabetically and grab the groups and copy/paste them to each report groups folder. So, I have been trying to use a batch file in windows to move each…

I have been scouring the internet for how to setup Dropbox to run on Windows Server 2012 R2 as a service. I have seen tutorials for 3rd party applications that will start it on boot and allow sync, but I cannot use any additional software in my company environment. I want Dropbox to be up and syncing 24/7, but this is not…

I am working on a remote server for which I can not launch a browser. Is there a command line way to link my account and set up the folder(s) to sync?

My Dropbox icon on the taskbar states it is 'Indexing 4 files... Cant Sync ....jpg (access denied). I'd either like to sync those files or delete them. I can't find those file doing a search on my hard drive or my phone. How do I do that?

I have a win10 PC. In an attempt to include my desktop folder (50GB of files) in dropbox, I inadvertently moved the location of the contents of the Desktop to "E:/dropbox" rather than "E:/dropbox/Desktop". Now, my dropbox folder IS my Desktop folder, and vice-versa! Yikes! Now everything in my dropbox folder also appears…

On my computer which is a Macbook-Pro it appears that Dropbox is downloaded. However when I go to finder it is not there. What is happening?

HI... I have about 1.2 terabyte of images in Photos, som 55,000 images. They are all downloaded on my Mac. I want to export everything into Dropbox. When I export from Iphoto it create one folder for each day making it impossible to view pictures because it pretty much create 365 folders per year. I would like to either A)…

Last week I've change my password though the website, at work. On my home computer I have installed the Desktop client. I have not changed a thing and it was syncing without problems. The same happened with my Dropbox App for my Android phone. If I ever change the password of my account I was expecting the need to update…

I noticed that the dropbox icon was not in my apps tray, so I tried to start it manually, clicking the icon on my desktop. Nothing happens - win 10 task manager shows that it starts, but the program disappears from the list again. Restarting my pc doesn't do the trick, clicking on the dropbox.exe file doesn't do the trick.…

It would be useful if the computer could shutdown after syncing so that everything has been loaded up.

Hi, in the admin console, I've created a Team Folder. The standard synchronisation for this folder is set to "standardmäßig nicht synchronisiert", which must be something like "not synced by default". Each Team Member has to check the folder in the Selective Sync settings. Only then it is synced to the local Dropbox…

My dropbox folder on my app does not appear to be syncing, even though from the icon it says it is up to date? Its clearly not though, as anything I saved there in the last 6 days does not appear when I log in via the website on a different computer?

I found that Dropbox was making my Pc's and laptops unusable because synching dropbox content to them meant that Dropbox files were still using all the space on my hard drive! So now I am stopping the synching altogether and trying to just use the browser access to stop my hard drive becoming clogged up. The problem I have…

I don't know if this is the right category. Also, I tried searching here for a solution first, but the posts were all locked. I just started using Dropbox. I don't have many files in it. Since May 10, my virus software has found Gen:Variant.Kazy 512414 in my \.dropbox.cache. The file is ~834b6cda.tmp. The only thing I…

Is it possible to password protect a folder so that even I have to enter the password to open a folder in my own dropbox?

Hi there, I would like to organize my files with folders and subfolders. However, the system doesn't let me because some of the files are shared. I have too much clutter now and would like to streamline my Dropbox "desk". Thanks.

I have used Smartsync to make space on my computer ( very useful). But I do not understand how the 3 symbols interact and work: 1 - Cloud symbol ( I get that: file is on the cloud not on the computer) 2 - Green tick in white circle ( dont understand this?) 3 - Green tick fully green ( I think I understand this: happens…
