The only reason why I moved my 800GB media data to OneDrive instead to Sync, was the fact, that it is not supported by cloud transfer services such as MultCloud or RiceDrive. For my media data I don't need zero-knowledge encryption. For sensitive data I now use Filen which offers zero-knowledge encryption as a standard.

@"skillet"What you can blame Dropbox for is poor communication and their delayed activities. But now they are finally just adapting to Apple's API requirements. You can neither blame Apple for their security improvements. I understand the frustration, because I was affected the same way, but I found alternatives meanwhile,…

What Dropbox is really saying by reposting a 4-month-old statement is that the leading cloud provider does not currently offer zero-knowledge encryption and that they don't know when it will happen. They acquired Boxcryptor, and for some unknown reason managed to shut down the official Boxcryptor service immediately,…

WOW, thanks for sharing. Very important to know as I meanwhile use OneDrive as well. I'm sorry for your awful experience. Something like this is exactly what I was afraid of and why I did not really want to wait for the move. Thanks to your info I can take necessary measures to avoid same drama here.

There finally seems to be a life after/without Boxcryptor and Dropbox, as I have found two cloud services that offer a perfect combination and alternative for less than what I was paying for my monthly Dropbox Plus plan. Of course, Dropbox deleted my recommendation here in the community immediately, even though it solves…

@"nessus42" then you are located in a region/area where Dropbox already proceeds with the change while users like me are waiting for that still...

Feedback from Sync.com regarding the implementation of Apple's new API requirements: "...We are aware of this on our end, and an update is on our roadmap as we monitor further updates from Apple..."

I contacted pCloud and Sync.com to ask why they are still NOT using ~/Library/CloudStorage and if they probably use an own API instead. The reply by pCloud reads as follows: "...Although I do not know the exact deliberations of the development team, we are indeed not beholden to that change, as we make use of the MacFUSE…

question is how or where you downloaded the installer. Only here you can decide whether you install the latest stable version or a beta one. If you do a regular download from the website, you (hopefully) won't get a beta version.

@"Michael S.197" As just published again by Dropbox in a statement (see below screenshot) and confirmed by my own experiences, you cannot force the switch to the new folder location. As long as you did never receive a corresponding notification from Dropbox and as long as your Dropbox folder was not moved automatically…

Dropbox is most probably lazy or whatever because the changes were announced long long time ago. Google and Microsoft were at least much much faster than Dropbox. So if it's true what you say now I really wonder what about Sync.com and pCloud. They have the finder file badges like Dropbox and the cloud folders are in the…

@"MrTacoPants" I understand. Then you probably really got the keys in a "no man's land time window" and are in a loop now. Guess you have to wait until Dropbox offers encryption. But who exactly sold you these license keys? If it was still Boxcryptor Germany (see imprint) they cannot forward you to anybody else and need to…

@"Andrew Parker" that's a valid and good point obviously. Thanks!! I was already wondering why Sync.com and pCloud don't end up in the CloudStorage folder which kept me away from using both, cause I thought they both still need to implement the requirements by Apple. But your comment sounds much more logical as an…

at this stage this clearly is a question that you should address to Boxcryptor please...

forget about Apple iCloud Drive if you own larger data amounts. Pain in the a** I just tried to migrate 50GB data but it killed Finder already during upload. iCloud still has a lot of bugs and is simply not reliable enough. If you are a spoiled Dropbox+Boxcryptor user, nothing will ever compete to and beat this couple. I…

Yes, same here (161.4.4923)...waiting...and preparing for a possible move to Sync.com or pCloud if Dropbox will not reduce plans...

Hello to the Community, hello Dropbox Staff, I'm running Dropbox 160.4.4703 under MacOS 13.0.1. (Ventura) with OpenCore Legacy Patcher on a late 2013 iMac (27"). I also use Boxcryptor for the Dropboxfolder. That works all like charme while I'm now waiting for the expected changes by Dropbox, moving the Dropbox folder…

sorry for digging this out again. Toggling between ON and OFF does not work for me. Had huge problems either because using a VPN with another time zone server or it was related to the time change in Europe last weekend. Can't figure that out anymore as I did all in that same night. I like to deactivate this automatic…
