We use dropbox across our entire company which is generally amazing. However, recently we have run into a problem. We have a remote peice of equipment that is running 24/7 writing data to csv files. These files are stored and synced via dropbox. The problem is that dropbox sends them every time the machine write a new line…

The desktop app says "No internet connection - Your computer is currently offline. PLease check your nework settings." But my comuter is NOT offline and there is most definitely internet - I can access any website through Explorer and Firefox and ALL other web-based applications are running fine?

I use Autocad to work on files I have stored and shared here in Dropbox. My Autocad is set to save every ten minutes. I also manually save very often because I've learned a valuable lesson once when we lost power and my battery backup (UPS) didn't work. Hours of lost work is not fun so I constantly save to avoid losing…

I recently set up my Ipad and Iphone to upload photos to my dropbox account. This has resulted in my dropbox account being full. I do not need all of these photos backed up in dropbox nor do I need to access them from my dropbox account. I would like to move them to a folder on my Pc (running Vista). That way they will be…

I have dropbox installed on my work computer that has software called deepfreeze (software by Faronics) on it. Basically deepfreeze boots from an image created when it was installed so every morning after I boot up my computer, dropbox spends 2-4 hours doing something called "indexing" even though my dropbox folder is on a…

I examined “MacOS System Preferences > Security & Privacy > Privacy > Accessibility” yesterday, and I saw Dropbox.app listed under "Allow the apps below to control your computer", with its checkbox selected. Since I had no idea when or how Dropbox.app got this permission, I immediately deselected the checkbox to disable…

I have several users who are noticing that their Dropbox App completely crashes on Windows 8 and they are off line. We have tried to restart the app and nothing happens. Only solution is to reinstall dropbox on top of itself. I have performed this several times, but today I had a user that required this step again (3 hours…

I have used 23gb of 1tb storage, but am not allowed to upload a 35gb folder because there isn't "enough free space." What am I missing?

How do I quit dropbox. I am using an iMac running Mavericks. 

I have had nothing but problems with Windows 10 Start Menu, search, etc. Known Microsoft problem. The work around seems to be creating a 'Local' User, which I have done. Is there a way to have a common Dropbox folder for both users (Me). It seems not so far, in what I have tried. I have Installed Dropbox in my local user…

I have been using a VPN (Private Internet Access) for some time with no problems. about a week ago, I have found that Dropbox will only upload files when the VPN is connected. As soon as I dosconnect the VPN, it stops syncing. I've tried disabling firewalls and antivirus, but it make no difference

I'd like to have the My Documents folder on my HP synced with Dropbox, so I have a backup in the cloud. But I can't figure out how to do it without having a copy of My Documents in the My Dropbox folder (i.e., having two copies of My Documents taking up space on my hard drive). I might be overlooking something simple, but…
