@"RobLatour", No any applet is guilty. 🙂 Seems Dropbox has fixed its system relatively fast! 🧐 Something very rare (don't to say like never before). 🤷 Let's hope, we can see such (or similar, at least) speed for many other ongoing troubles. 🙄 Let's hope...

I did not add it to the Dropbox Folder on my local drive, because I was under the impression that when additional subfolders were added to the original folder they would automatically appear in the Drop Box…

Ok, The good news is absence of any access permission issues (as much as could be seens). The bad thing is time lost to we figure out there is something wrong with 'jq' and 'tree' install you have performed. Anyway... You can check out what's done in wrong, if want, and we won't use them here from now on. Just to make sure…

🧐🤔 No, no, no... You're killing me. That's impossible. 'ls' and 'tree' both do very similar things. It's impossible for one of them 'error opening dir', but for the other no problem - both need the same access (ls - even a bit more). 🤷 Are you sure the both are execouted in same context - the same local user 'naomi'? 🧐…

You are using officially unsupported FS type - ext3. Anyway... Dropbox can't make distinction between ext3 and ext4, so this is unlikely be a reason. But this approximate count - 3, seems wrong (suspicious, at least). Are you sure there are some files in the Dropbox folder? Can they be seen using following command: tree -a…

Hi @"sleepysloth", It's really strange! 🤔 There are contradictions in your information. Seems, you have full access, but you're receiving "Permission denied". I have to confess, don't have any explanation to that. Anyway... We can check a little twisted version. What's the result of the following command: echo -n "Your…

The problem is NOT application related. Seems, the system is compromised somehow. I have mentioned this already here. Let's see how long will take for Dropbox fix it.

Hi guys, Don't try any tricks with your applications. That's something unrelated to any application. Seems, the Dropbox system got down partially (for some reason). Time ago I was being able observe what's going on when change something in my account using my phone, for example, while looking at web interface (without need…

Hi @"eight-fives", If you are looking for a way to receive notifications for changes in client side application (not something residing on server), might be more convenient usage of long poll API call (or equivalent SDK implementation). Take it a look. Good luck.

Ok, seems you have proper access rights on the folders (including configuration one). Let see what about the configuration content. Post the following command result: ls -al ~/.dropbox What outs the following command too: cat ~/.dropbox/info.json; echo 🤔

Hi @"Elsap", Actually, you can't move any of the folder selected since all folder designated for move and the receiving folder are shared. Nesting of shared folder is not supported. That's where your error comes from. Hope this helps.

Hi @"djjem64", Dropbox doesn't support cooperation to any other competitive service, but pCloud support such (including cooperation with Dropbox). Do whatever you want through pCloud' site. That's possible there! 😉 Hope this helps.

Hi @"strugglingstudent", I am not sure still what application you are trying to build and run (you didn't share a link to yet). One more thing you should take care about is what are scopes you have queried at moment of authentication (at runtime). Even when you have enabled all available scopes at application creation…

@"strugglingstudent" wrote:For more information, I enabled all the necessary scopes, detele the app, reinstall, login again, and that error still exist! ... Hi @"strugglingstudent", What you mean "that error still exist"? Do you mean that "files.content.read" scope is missing still, despite you have added in the just…

Hi @"strugglingstudent", The error message is self explanatory enough. 😉 Did you add in your set of scopes all needed scopes at the application creation time? 🧐 Seems not. In the particular case, the error shows you that the "files.content.read" scope is missing. Just be more careful on application creation! 🙂 Hope this…

@"mrivera" wrote:... Does the api works through an specific address? ... Hi @"mrivera", While the words are going on about network API, there is always some kind of address (either domain name or IP). In particular case addresses are pointed by domain names. @"mrivera" wrote: ...Can I ask the network admin people to open…

Hi @"danens1863", I agree with you, that many new "features" of Dropbox look like bugs. According your description, seems you are disturbing by a bug with name "Smart Sync". Very poorly implemented and as a result such issues come up. If you can, turn this feature (bug) off. If you need to save disk space, considered…

Hi @"Supermac", You can forcibly unlink your application from the account using following command: rm -rf ~/.dropbox After that, run the application and link back to your account as usual. Hope this helps.

Hi @"sleepysloth", I have no idea what exactly you have done in your account, but this isn't resulted by Dropbox application (if everything used correctly). Have you changed permissions in your account (intentionally or not) or some configuration changes? This could be a result of some sophisticated games with the system,…

Hi @"flyingmonk2231", The link you are looking on is a transfer link (not a shared link as far…

Hi @"Rick19744", Dropbox backup feature (if you are interested in it) isn't available on mobile devices at all (as far as I know). All other files (either regular file or other applications backups or other types) are just uploaded to Dropbox using Dropbox application or, if particular application embeds Dropbox API,…

@"Rick19744" wrote:... Recently when I follow this same routine I get a message "Can't save backup from here. Open the Dropbox app to save items bigger than 150 MB". ... Hi @"Rick19744", Send a warn to the supplier of your application, that emits above message. The Dropbox API support no more than 150MB content transfer on…

@"sleepysloth" wrote:Hmm, I tried that first and I thought I got the same error, which is why I tried the others, but now when I try it I get it says it can't open the file, permission denied. ... 🤔 That's not possible. Are you sure the command gets launched exactly as I have posted it - without any changes? Post the…

@"sleepysloth" wrote:... sysctl fs.inotify.max_user_watches fs.inotify.max_user_watches = 65536 For the last one, I did have to install jq and tree but after that I got confused. I couldn't figure out where my .dropbox directory should be. My Dropbox folder is in /mnt/sdc1. I found a .dropbox in there, but when I…

Hi @"sleepysloth", Some more information would be helpful. Can you provide additional information about currently running application and environment? Post the following commands results (executed one by one): dropbox version dropbox status sysctl fs.inotify.max_user_watches How many files/folders reside in your Dropbox…

Hi @"johndoe5", Since Dropbox API is asynchronous, if not explicitly pointed out something else for particular call, you can't rely on any particular result. Any possible result, described in documentation, is... possible! So you must not assume anything, but strictly follow the API description. At the point, you have…

@"GazfromOz" wrote: ...I considered to unlink my application as you suggested ( Preferences -> Account tab -> Unlink... ) and link it back, however the selection to do so says "Unlink these accounts in Settings on web" and I was not 100% confident to action. Actually "unlink" means break the authorization between local…

Hm... 🤔 In such a case the email seen on your application should update automatically. Seems like some caching issue. Did you try quit Dropbox application and run it anew. Let's hope the cache content (including the email) will gets updated. If the issue isn't resolved still, you can try unlink your application (…
