Searching only for specific file types using web interface
I would like to be able to search for specific file types of any kind I like-- not just the subset of types offered in the "Type" dropdown menu. For instance, I want to find only *.des files- nothing else returned. Searching for "*.des" returns a few files with that extension but a lot of files that do not have that…

I used to upload some files in my Dropbox root, and now I'm not sure where they are.
This is a real mystery! I used to upload images to the root of my dropbox over the course of 2 years or so, maybe a total of 20 images, every month or so. All of a sudden I noticed all those images are gone. I still have 3 older folders in root, public and two folders I created. I clicked "Photos" in the menu, and could…

I can't see one of my shared folders, and other members can't restore it.
Hi, I’m trying to recover a folder that has disappeared from Dropbox. The folder does not appear under Events, Deleted Files, or version history.

Everyone should complain and move to another cloud storage service. Their responses have been equally useless. Dropbox should be embarrassed for being…

Dozens of my photos have disappeared from my Dropbox account online.
I have a Dropbox Plus - 2TB account and my trouble is that I can't find dozens of photos that I'm sure I didn't delete as I've deliberately never synced my photo folders with any computers or smart devices: they have always been only online/in cloud. Anyway I checked the deletion history for the last 30 days, made the…

I was asked to enter a new password, but that created a new Dropbox account.
My password wasn't accepted when trying to access my account recently. Instead, I was asked to set a new password meeting DropBox's more stringent requirements. Well and good! Anyway, I did as asked but then found myself with a new account and all my files missing! Fortunately, I have back-ups; just as well, but I…

Feedback on the support I'm getting while trying to restore files
I lost some files… I created a ticket… I was told my account could be "rolled-back" to a certain time/date so my files could be recovered…. It got sent up to the "Recovery Team". The recovery team didn't do ANYTHING I actually asked for. They tried something totally different, and it didn't work. They sent me a message at…
