"appindicator" is a common name, actual package name is usually something else, like "gnome-shell-extension-appindicator" or similar. If you have "Synaptic", there will be much easier to find the exact package. Could be need also "top-icons", again not rely on the exact name.

Hi @"psummitt", Everything seems fine, i.e. the application byself work. Unfortunately Dropbox has some strange incompatibilities with some modern system trays. So, some backward compatibility is required. Did you have installed "appindicator" and "libappindicator"?

Hi everybody, That's a Dropbox control script bug, I have signaled about long time ago, but seems nobody take care about, for long time. One other simple workaround is turn off "Start Dropbox on system startup" and start it by hand every time. Hope this cast some light.

Hi @"psummitt", What is the result from: ps ax -o pid,comm | grep "dropbox" cat ~/.dropbox/info.json; echo ls ~/.dropbox-dist | grep "dropbox-lnx" dropbox status Execute the above in a terminal and paste the terminal content in your next post. Hope this will make things more clear.

:slight_smile: Where comes the result you has initially post from? :thinking:

Empty folder name: "" "parent_folder_name": "",

:grinning: Take a look on your initial post: "shared_folder_id": "6598198444" :wink: 

Hi @"chrismcfarling", Yes, that's true, but you point to Dropbox application documentation, not the API one! Unfortunately Dropbox documents are ambiguous very often and there is space for improvements. You can take a closer look on the API point documentation you are using (as much as possible - yes not very clear…

@"chrismcfarling" wrote:... The top level team space is My Team. Within that is a folder name WIP Folder. The list_folders API command shows that WIP Folder is not a team folder as is_team_folder is set to false. ... In fact every folder returns "is_team_folder": false, ... { ..., "is_inside_team_folder": true,…

What is the "full picture" of (how to say) everything? What is/are API point(s), you are using? What are the full (error) messages (entire JSON) both when work fine and when fail? Any other info able clarify the "picture" would be helpful to somebody passed through/around the same/similar behaviour (probably more useful…

I send only path to file and token, there is no info what account I use. You didn't mention in any way exact API point in use or error message you have received, so I…

Hi @"GRP2"/@"grp3", Are you sure you didn't create access token in one of your account and try use it on another one? :thinking: You are using two different accounts in fact (content is different, even when matching)! Hope this gives the right direction. :wink:

@"witsend" wrote: ... Sorry, what do you mean by "not posting all"? I gave you the output for each line of the third box? Did you read: @"Здравко" wrote:...

You didn't post all... Ok, is there response from 162.125.36.1? (i.e. "ping 162.125.36.1")

Hi @"witsend", That sounds really curious! Can you try something "from zero" (hope you don't have too much local files, if you have, keep/move them in advance)? Just some investigation. Stop any working application instance (if any). To be sure everything is from clear, execute following: killall dropbox rm -rf ~./Dropbox…

Hi @"joe_walker", Everything you have reported point to some problem in network configuration of your machine. If you want to use IPv6 then all devices seating on the route between content.dropboxapi.com and your machine should be configured properly to use the protocol. Even one misconfiguration is enough to reach such a…

R.I.P. Block-level Sync Accepting a loss is truly difficult, but is just another test (understand - like as restrictions, prices and so on). Today we remember not only the who died (understand the usable feature), but also, who led an honorable life (understand efficient syncing). God (understand Dropbox) only gives us…

Yes, I also seen that. See the corrected version.

Yes @"FatCharlie", exactly. :wink: One temporary directory is downloaded and after that the upgader is trying move content to the actual 'Client' directory, but... can't. And that's all... continues work. This quitting is something normal and happens on all upgrade (or in particular case on try to). Is this happens again…

Hi @"FatCharlie", Try using some earlier version you know work. :wink: Hope this helps to some extent.

Let's hope someday full Unicode support will be available.

Let's hope restriction "the Dropbox API only supports characters in the Unicode Basic Multilingual Plane" will be overcome ( https://www.dropboxforum.com/t5/API-Support-Feedback/Czech-diacritics-characters-in-filename/m-p/357739#M20397 ). There are many other discussions, in this forum, directed to the limited character…

Hi @"Javierin", If the problem is unsupported FS, you can take a look here for workaround without changing anything else. Be careful about change in a variable name, noted below the script, which should be corrected by hand (dropboxforum bug) before use! DBX_WEB_src have to be modified to DBX_WEB_SRC, that's it. :wink:…

@"iiiyraegr" wrote: ... Please let me know where I can get earlier versions of the Dropbox installer, even if it is futile. ... Hi @"iiiyraegr", All available releases are visible one level up the current thread. :slight_smile: Take a look on page top ("Desktop client builds").

Hi @"JAS37", Might be more easy, as an workaround, the content get be synced, not the container. :thinking:

anonymous wrote:... want to access them from a dual boot Windows-Windows computer. ... Hi anonymous, Please note that the above script work and is tested on Linux only. Probably, might be usable also on Mac with some adaptations. There is no any chance to be used directly on Windows! Windows API is completely different and…

Getting back earlier version is platform depending way. Dropbox daemon autoupdates whenever possible. Do your system provides some way freeze it? If so, this is the way. 😉

HI all, Actual reason is Dropbox FS restrictions set: https://help.dropbox.com/installs-integrations/desktop/system-requirements#desktop Take a look especially on FS restrictions for different supported platforms. Hope this casts some light.

Hi @"AndreyStrukov", Can you clarify, what you really ask? :thinking: In the error message is clearly stated: "could not decode input as JSON"! If you take a look on list_v2 documentation, can be seen that parameters have to be in JSON format. Where you encode your parameter ("limit") in JSON? Instead, you use 'QUrlQuery'…

Hi @"Ajay_Chawda", Seems you are using content multipart encoding. :slight_smile: That's not applicable to Dropbox API. Raw file content have to be used! :wink: Header lines have to be set in the main HTTP header block (other header types are not acceptable in this API - that's why they go in file content). Hope this gives…
