So www.dropbox.com/home is empty?

Have you activated backup? www.dropbox.com/backups OR have a shared folder? www.dropbox.com/share

@"Liviuv" wrote:Hi, I expect a response can help me -no discussions that tell me all is impossible . Thank you There are plenty of posts on here where this has been the case. It is also in the terms and conditions of the account that a user is responsible for maintaining the account security. If that hasnt been done then…

Check you are using the correct URL first - email clients often cut the end off if its over more than one line. If not you need to go back to the original course provider and ask for help. They need to give you a new link

The third would be a third one of your devices using your log ons. You want to create shared folders between you and her for whatever data you wish to share - just remember it will use both of your quotas: www.dropbox.com/share 

That looks like whatever uploaded them didnt add the extension to the files. A rename to include .jpg at the end should work.

@"AngieB" hmmmm.......

Phones dont work like the web etc. If they upload on a mobile device they will almost certainly need to reupload it back to Dropbox after the edit (exception to this is SOME Microsoft Office 365 applications will write back to Dropbox, but, its a bit hit and miss). It is obvious if it does this though

Hi @"Kiki_Stanza" The issue is you created a new shared folder, dont. Just create a folder (as I said in my example called 'Share') and put them in that. You dont need a new shared folder as they are already Shared 🙂

Hi @"Kiki_Stanza" You can move shared folders around (and rename them) at will, as long as you do not move them inside of another shared folder. So, your plan should work. I, for example, have all of mine in a really originally named folder called 'Shares' 🙂 HOWEVER what I would say is that Dropbox takes time to do this.…

Yes. So they need to log on and accept the share via the email they are sent, or, at www.dropbox.com/share

Try reinstalling Dropbox, and making sure its running: www.dropbox.com/downloading

@"moon_monkey" wrote:The problem is, since I have only a basic account, I have no options to control the online / offline settings on the dropdown menu, so I can't change them. And a basic account is meant to be all offline / local anyway That isnt correct. Online only is available to all customers:…

Unless they have a Dropbox account they wouldnt be able to do this. Sharing links to none Dropbox members creates a read only link. They need to edit the file and edit it within Dropbox for others to see it - either Excel on web (when logged in) or by downloading and uploading again. 

That sounds like the app on your mobile @"VW2" ? Dropbox desktop is only up to 200.x at the moment? My image, for example, is 199.4.6287

What is the error?

Is a change in the UI not even worthy of a mention on the change log!? Disappointing @"clientreleases" 😞

Ohhhh @"VW2" the UI has changed! This is how I see it: What is your version of Dropbox?

Epson seemed to resolve this quite quickly (Brother, however, is a different matter), however Dropbox bot is right. It is not a Dropbox fault, it is an Epson one. Try updating the software on your devices, the issue is that its out of date and using old API keys. 

Unfortunately not 😞 

Online search, is, well poor. It has to be said unfortunately. There is no search available for comments either. 

@"michelle32" wrote:Any luck yet? I am also wanting to back up all my files directly onto an external hard drive. My computer doesn't have space to download everything to copy and paste over Dropbox does not have this functionality. Sorry.

Hi @"KH18" That icon is not a Dropbox one. It is a OneDrive icon. That means the files are either stored in OneDrive, or, were stored in OneDrive but not downloaded locally before you moved them. So actually they are an empty placeholder. You need to go back to OneDrive - either with those files, if it works, and try to…

@"clientreleases" wrote: Thanks for using Dropbox! The desktop client is regularly updated with many improvements and fixes. Such as? How can we test and help develop the product when @"clientreleases" is too lazy to say what the improvements are?

What does www.dropbox.com/referral_status show. Bonus space is not removed unless there is a breach of the T&C's, the account is marked inactive and comes back OR its time limited (such as Quicken). Also check www.dropbox.com/events

How long ago did you last log in? If it was over 12 months ago the data has been wiped. It is unlikely you can get access to the account, however, have a look at this article. Your best bet is to ask your work if they will reactivate the email.

@"AliceDropbox" wrote:Hi @"DebraV"! Since it sounds like your colleague is using the Dropbox Desktop App , you can advise them they can right click the file and select "Copy link" which will be the Dropbox Shared Link Just to clarify though - that doesnt work like what links in Excel do which could be used to pull data…
