Okay, how are you accessing your email then on your phone if you're not using an app? Is it through a browser, or does an app load up showing you your inbox?

Hi @"MrtzWlkr", currently, there isn't an option to disable the Transfer emails.

Thanks for the info, the new folder structure makes it easier to access and organize shared content, while keeping members’ personal files separate. Currently, it isn't possible to disable the personal member folder or to return to the old structure. If you have any further queries, feel free to message back.

Hi @"janenipius", just for clarification, are you referring to an external drive backup, or a computer backup, which are both different things? Do you have your computer backup enabled while having your Dropbox folder stored on the external drive?

Is there a specific app you're using? Is it the Apple Mail app, the Microsoft Outlook app, or another app when accessing your inbox?

File format refers to a change in the file itself, however, it sounds like you're referring to the location change on Mac OS devices. The Dropbox desktop application will still be able to sync normally with devices using the old location, or if they're using Windows or other devices in general.

Hi @"SIRADA", in order to look into this matter in more detail, would it be possible to reach out to the email associated with your forum profile?

Hi @"janenipius", are you following these steps to restore from a previous computer backup onto your machine?

Glad to have helped out. Do you have the ticket ID from the automated email reply in order to locate it on our system?

No worries, glad to have helped out. Enjoy your weekend!

Hi @"k6ncx", thanks for the update. As you're reached via ticket, the support agent will be able to assist further on their end.

Hi @"Matthew G.11", thanks for bringing this to our attention. Could you try temporarily disabling the Dropbox from the Locations, rebooting the device, re-enabling it and see if you can access it again? Are you using cellular data or a WiFi network to access the internet? This will help me to assist further!

Could you try accessing the preferences by following these steps?

Hi @"sarah2023", just for clarification, my colleague was asking about the space on your mobile itself, and not the quota on the site.

Hi @"nicwg", thanks for messaging the Community. Could you clarify what you mean by the file format? Are you referring to the new location of the Dropbox folder on Mac OS devices? This will help me to assist further!

Since it does sound like there is something preventing the files from being downloaded due to the school network, as it works elsewhere, keep us updated with any news on if they were able to make the downloads work again.

@"robert1881", have you tried replying to the email directly via your inbox for @"Walter" to assist you further, instead of clicking any links? Hi @"bartb", what is the proxy setting in the Dropbox desktop application preferences? Since it's restricted to this machine in different locations, there should be something on…

Hi @"MSDinFL", thanks for bringing this to our attention. Could you check your selective sync settings to ensure the team folder is enabled to sync down to your machine? Keep me updated with any progress!

Hi @"Warren" green, thanks for bringing this to our attention. Have you already tried getting in contact with the support team?

Hi @"jhedleyj", I've sent you an email, please could you reply to it as soon as possible!

@"joshualux", are the unsynced files within the library file, or elsewhere? Hi @"businessoffice", are you experiencing the exact same behavior on your devices? Could you attach any screenshots and more info on this matter?

Hi @"ARN94", are you on a Dropbox Business team? Has your team recently completed the migration to the new structure? This will help me to assist further!

Hi @"Brian Battles", I’d be happy to clarify the expected behavior for audio playback in our app. When you play an audio file in our app, you should be able to minimize the app and still hear playback. However, the Dropbox app is not designed to be a fully-featured media player, so if you’re playing items from a folder of…

Are you accessing these links via a school environment? Do you have any proxy, VPN, firewall, security software, or even ISP/router settings that could be restricting traffic to the following Dropbox domains? Can you download the links from another network entirely?

Thanks for the update on this matter, and I'm glad to hear you were able to login to your account. Enjoy the rest of your week!

Hi @"Andrew33", thanks for bringing this to our attention. Could you try switching browsers to see if this helps? Otherwise, you can try using incognito/private browsing mode without any extensions running, clearing your cache and even resetting your browser entirely. Keep me updated with any progress!

Hi @"Christian W.10", thanks for bringing this to our attention. Currently, there isn't a method to just search for the file name of a file. If you have the files syncing in the Dropbox folder on your machine, you might be able to search via Explorer/Finder, or from the Dropbox desktop application. Keep me updated with any…

Hi @"Graham-7", in order to understand if it's official or not, could you attach a screenshot showing the exact email you received? This will help me to assist further!

Hi @"joshualux", if you mark entire folders as available offline, then all files within that folder would also be available offline with a green icon.

Thanks for the update, this should help other users who have similar questions in the future!
