Hi @"mg95", thanks for posting here today! The first thing that we need to check in regards to your camera uploads, is the version of the desktop app that you use on your end. You can find this by locating your Dropbox icon on your task bar, next to your WiFi and hovering your mouse over there. It's a bit odd that both…

Hi @"Myrna1", let's jump right into this! You mentioned that the files you need aren't available to you, but we don't have much info on our end about this. Can you elaborate a bit? Is the Dropbox app up and running, and if so, what is the current syncing status of the app? If you open your Dropbox folder locally, are you…

Hi @"Rob B.35", let's jump right into this! If I understand this right, you're coming across some errors when it comes down to syncing some of your socket files using our app. Could you clarify -or even send us a few screenshots- of the error you get when this happens, and some example file names that this happens to? I…

Hi @"pmurkowsky " , can I send you an email too, in order for us to have a closer look into this? 

So, this isn't a consistent behavior, right? @"ben_galaxy" You could try to install Microsoft 365, just to check if you notice a difference on your end.

Hi @"PierreSchlum", let's jump right into this! I don't think your account plan could be related to the folder's permissions. Is the shared folder you mentioned visible to you when you access your account's sharing tab? Did your friend try out the steps mentioned here, in order to change your permissions? And if he did,…

Hi @"the1", happy Thursday! You mentioned that you updated your Dropbox app, do you use the new macOS update on your device? If so, have you taken a look at this Help Center article, in order to allow access to your Dropbox files? I would like for you to locate your Dropbox icon. It would be on the menu bar, next to your…

Hi @"magleahy", thanks for clarifying! If you have view only permissions, that would explain why you can't add new content to said folder. Can you ask for the owner, to change your permissions to can edit, and then try again? However, there's a second obstacle here, which is the viewing part. Even with view only…

Hi @"nitinkhanna", thanks for posting here! Could I send you an email, in order for us to have a closer look into this? Keep me posted!

Hi @"steve G", I see. Do you see any syncing icons when you access your Backup folder, inside Dropbox? If I were you, I'd wait until the app is up to date, and then delete any content you don't need. 

Hi @"TheOldman", welcome to our Community! You mentioned that the files with the solid cloud can't be opened. Do you get any specific errors when you try to open them?

Hi @"ben_galaxy" & @"J_nelly_5"! Could you send me a few screenshots with the message you receive from Dropbox, when you try to open your files? 

Hey @"J_nelly_5", sorry to see you're having this issue. Can you let me know which iOS version you're running and which Dropbox version too? Please feel free to also access your Dropbox settings in the app itself, and clear the cache from there. An uninstall and re-install would also be ideal, if you could. Let me know…

Hi @"rastro2", could you try to do a quick re-install of the app, using this link? Once you do that, can you also clarify the app's exact syncing status at the moment? Thanks a bunch! 

Hi @"Zarnalist", it sounds like this could be the issue here, since the video came from a camcorder and it was later converted to an .mp4. How did you convert it on your end? Also, which platform do you use when trying to preview the file on our end?
