If you go to the directory that Dropbox is located in (so usually \Users\your name) and then just drag the Dropbox directory over to the side back on the Finder window that will put it there for you :)

If you do not log in for 12 months Dropbox accounts and data are wiped due to inactivity.…

The link already given tells you how to view and access all the versions Dropbox stores. If it isn't in the Previous Version history Dropbox doesn't have another copy.

gd1235 wrote:can this client share his storage with me? No. His space does not benefit you at all. If you have 2gb of free space that's all you can sync from his account. If his shared folder is bigger than that you cannot sync anything/it would stop. If you need read only access ask for read only links instead.

Hopefully a Dropboxer will notice this shortly :)

You need to contact Dropbox support to ask for help: www.dropbox.com/support.

That means the deletion event occurred longer than 6 months ago - which means even if, at the time of deletion, you were a paid user they still wouldn't be recoverable as that's the length of the recovery window. I'm afraid you'll need to restore from any backups you…

Unfortunately, you needed to have had the plans in place before deletion or a 30 days recovery window applies. Have you looked at www.dropbox.com/events to see how long ago they…

Are the files still on www.dropbox.com/home ? What happens if you change the files to 'Available Offline' ?

The team are good and will hopefully spot this soon :)

Unless, if you are still logged in on your desktop you log one via that and reference one of the other tickets (closing duplicates as Rich said).

Hi Unfortunately this isnt how Backup works. It doesn't create commonality between folders on different devices, that isn't something Dropbox has ever done. It simply moves things in to the \Dropbox directory to sync them. You can follow https://help.dropbox.com/organize/dropbox-backup to stop backing up your folders,…

Hi Just so we are on same page here is the issue that you moved from iCloud to Dropbox but they didn't all transfer from iCloud correctly? If so you need to speak to Apple support to see if they can help. If you moved them on a computer have you checked to see if they are in the Dropbox folder but maybe haven't sync'd to…

The official Dropbox app only uploads things on your camera roll, but, third party ones (which is what Samsung Folds sounds like) may do other things.

What exactly is the program you are using to upload? Im not aware of an official Dropbox app called Dropbox Lite. Do you have a link or anything?

Dvan wrote:The files are not 0 bytes, I have also attached a screenshot of what is visible from my desktop. The issue, I think, is that everything has been moved to under the deleted team account.

Unfortunately it isnt possible to recover a deleted account and the data is, as the email said, also unrecoverable.
