I'm really getting ******. I've spoken to dropbox a couple times about the extremely slow upload speeds i'm getting... The problem is definitly on the DROPBOX side since I can upload to other services at normal speeds. I'm getting upload speed tests all the time around 850 to 900 Mbps. I can upload a 2 gig file to the…

Since last week, file uploads from Android App do not work anymore. I follow the usual procedure, selecting the files, "adding/sharing" them to dropbox. It starts to upload but gets stuck and fails, saying "network error: it will try again whenever you have connection". I can assure I have internet connection and tried…

Manual photo uploads in the IOS environment conversion: FROM heic----> TO jpg. It is great that Dropbox can be enabled as an IOS app choice in the IOS environment to save photos (Google Photos seems blocked as a selection app) from numerous sources eg messages, emails, facebook ect. BUT many IOS users are creating and…

Hello, I have an iPhone running iOS 17.2 and the app keeps signing me out during uploads. I have tried uninstalling the app, and reinstalling, but the problem persists. It’s frustrating to be almost completely finished uploading a large file, and then I look at my phone and it has signed me out.

So I upload photos to Dropbox from my camera roll, if I then delete those photos once they're in Dropbox and sync new photos, say a few days later, does it then delete the photos from Dropbox that I've deleted from my phone, or just keep uploading the new photos?

The last 2 videos uploaded in Dropbox have cut out the first 8 seconds of the video. The videos are about 2 - 3 minutes and less than 100mb. Is there a solution to the problem?

I have photos that I want to upload to dropbox and create a link to share

Hi there, I just signed up with DropBox on the Plus plan. I'm trying to scan my paper documents into searchable pdfs. Unfortunately when I use the scanner within the DropBox mobile app, the resulting pdfs are not searchable. However, when I use a 3rd party app (Scanner Pro) on the same iPad (linked to DropBox), I am able…

Hello, Yes ... although this email is about Storage Space, as you will see below; there are good reasons I will NOT upgrade yet! Why? Basically because, important issues about transparency and trust have been damaged! 1. My name is GraemeH. 2. I’ve had my 'BASIC account' for quite a while. 3. I was already planning to…

I'm trying to upload a large amount of files directly from an external drive thru a web browser. I have tried both Edge and Chrome and both are acting the same. It just sits there stating the files are in queue... I did manage to get one file to upload by itself. I let this sit overnight and nothing happened. I do not have…

We are hosting a 5K run/walk this spring for the Forgotten Warrior Memorial. I was trying to create a QR code where the general public could upload their pics of the event, but the only way I've found to do that is to allow editing permissions which isn't an option.

Just wondering if anyone has encountered this issue. I'm using a Samsung smartphone & tablet. When using Samsung mail and attaching a pdf file from Dropbox, it will attach as an html file. It only happens when attaching files from Dropbox and only happens when using my Samsung mobile devices. Any thoughts??? 

Prior to release 358.2 whenever I would take a photo from within the app, the photo would upload to whatever folder I was currently in. Now whenever I take a photo, I have to navigate back to the folder I'm already in again to get it to upload to that folder. Is there a setting that has been changed? Can it be changed…

Hi dropbox community, I’m recently doing a backup to my external hard drive with dropbox backup. However, today when I log into the same account on different computers, the highlighted button seems to be missing. Can anyone point out why and how to re-enable this function?

How can I respond to a file request using dbxcli? I don't have a GUI on the server that I want to send the files from.

I just moved 80 Gbytes of Dropbox folders and files (not that much really) to my new computer. First I copied them to an external hard drive. Then I installed the Dropbox application on the new computer. Then I copied all of the files from the external hard drive to the Dropbox folder on my new computer. Six days later…

I am hoping to find a way to offload the 20k images on my phone to have space on my phone. Is there a way to move all the photos to dropbox? AND be able to easily access them in Photos app? Is there a way to integrate the two?

I signed up for the business plan free trial because I need to temporarily store about 3TB of data before I can rebuild my NAS RAID & drives. I started the upload at around 3PM ET on Sunday and 10PM ET it was still at 27% of the data having been uploaded and has been for at least three hours. My connection is via ethernet…

Howdy all! Looking to see if it's an option to use Dropbox Business for our security camera back-up storage. Need to maintain a years worth of 24/7 video and audio from 1 camera. Thank you!!

Stuck on 1 second left. Need help/advice on this ASAP. Is this a Dropbox thing or an error. Can this be fixed?

I have the following problem: As soon as I have automatically uploaded pictures with the iPhone app and then deleted them again, these pictures are no longer uploaded again. Not even if I select "all photos" in the camera upload. I suspect that Dropbox stores somewhere which files have already been uploaded... or at least…

All the posts I see on this topic are at least 2 years old, so... straightforward: Is it possible to post a single photo stored in Dropbox on a Facebook page from either the Dropbox or the Facebook side? Thanks.
