Delete text in PDF?
I just learned, via an email from Dropbox, that we have PDF edit capability in Dropbox. In reviewing the directions and doing a trial on one of my pdf files, I do not see that TEXT deletion is included in the capabilities. I see that entire pages can be deleted, but not specific text. Am I viewing this correctly? Did I…

Uploading 3 TB of Video. Is there a better way than the website?
We have an external drive with nearly 3 TB of videos, each varies from 5 MB to multiple GB. We have been trying to upload them to dropbox through dropbox.com for days. Each file takes at least an hour to upload. Is there a better way to get this much data into our dropbox?

New "improved" browser file viewer for photos seems ....incomplete ? broken?
hi, After a while (few months) I've finally had a need to scroll through thousands of online images of a client again. Raw files. The new file viewer seems a massive step backwards, and that's putting it lightly. 1) Buttons to navigate (back/foward) are gone. Sure, arrow keys work but I enjoy being able to do things with…

I'm running Dropbox on MacOS Ventura. I tend to bookmark pdf files in Safari for quick access. I'm finding that pdf files in Dropbox folders will no longer open in Safari.

Wrong date format in email notiifcations despite settings
The date format is set to DD-MM-YYYY in my preferences, but Dropbox emails are arrving in a completely different format with the month and day inverted.
