Hi @"Anonymous", welcome to the Dropbox Community. Thank you so much for taking the time to send this! At the moment, there's no way to do what you want to do and apply the settings to all of your files while also keeping the default zoom settings. Everyone here at Dropbox loves to know what our customers think, so if you…

Hi @"Luc Fortin", how are you today? Can you please try to locate the charge using the steps I provided in this thread? Let me know what you find.

Hey @"James H.83", sorry to jump into your convo with @"Hannah"! Just to make sure we're on the same page, can you send me a screenshot of the app's status as shown in your system tray? While we're at it, I'd appreciate another one from the content of your Dropbox folder to check the syncing icons on your files if…

Hey @"RebeccaCarter", Thank you for your screenshot! How are you this Tuesday? No worries, I want to help as much as I possibly can. Can I reach out to you via email in order for us to look further into this? Please let me know!

Hi @"John Andrew", let's see what we can find on this! Can you give me some additional details on what you want to achieve? Are you referring to sharing permissions? Let me know more, and we'll take it from there.

Hey @"CoralCrust", thanks for posting your question here! The fact that the app and Dropbox folder are installed on an HDD could be causing this. Generally, it's preferred and suggested for the app to be installed on the device's drive. Can you let me know the version of the app you have installed on the device? Let me…

Hi @"cstalt", welcome to our Community! I understand you're having issues with moving a number of files using our website—correct me if I got anything wrong please. That's expected to happen with such a huge number of files. However, would you mind trying it on a different browser too? What I would suggest is that you…

Hi @"Setchy1222", I'd be more than happy to help. I've merged your post under this similar thread since it matches what you initially asked. Would you mind taking a look at what was previously suggested? Also, what is the size of your external hard drive? Let me know how it goes.

Hey @"Azat202021", thanks for posting here today! Can you please send me a screenshot of the error you receive on your end when you open the shared link? Does that happen with all of your links? Keep me updated.

Hi @"soher1", let's see what we can find about this! Have you checked both your deleted files page and your events page? Can you give it a look and let me know what you find there? Thank you very much!

Hey @"DanWeiss", I'd be happy to answer this for you! Since you don't remember the password for the account, the best way to go about it would be for you to create a new one. If you're connected to your old Dropbox account, you can then move any files you want to the new one. Also keep in mind that if you don't use your…

Have you tried uninstalling the app, then re-installing it @"ModelXTC"? If so, could you give it a go, and let me know if the same behavior is apparent there as well?

Hi @"thejustintung", welcome to our Community! Because the OP had a similar question, I've merged your post into this thread. Would you mind having a look at what has been suggested already, and letting me know if you have any questions? Thank you!

Hi @"ModelXTC", thanks for all the details! Now, let's work on each one individually. In regards to the 1 red number you see there, could you click under Activity, and make sure all of your notifications are read? As for the syncing message in the first screenshot, it's possible that Dropbox files won't sync if they're…

Hi @"Lightfield", happy Tuesday! Can you send me a screenshot of the error you're referring to? Have you tried downloading the content using a totally different browser? Keep me posted, and we'll take it from there. 

Hi @"Troy Walton", no worries this is why I am here. You can find the steps to disable Computer backup right here. If you have any questions, don't hesitate to let me know!

Hi @"ModelXTC", sorry to jump into your convo with Walter! Could you send us a screenshot of what you see on your end when looking at the icon? If I were you, I'd double-check that all of my app notifications have been checked. Also, do you see the app's status stating "up to date," "syncing," or "indexing"? Thanks a…

Hi @"Kapriyati"! I hope you enjoyed your weekend! Can you try accessing our Community, using a different browser, and tell me if you're able to see it there?

Happy Friday, anonymous! I just sent you an email, and I'll be happy to look into this for you there. Keep me posted, and enjoy your weekend!

Hi @"sarahfelldown", sorry to jump into your convo with @"Hannah"! This error message is a result of transferring files between two different file systems. It just means some parts of the file properties are not supported when you try to move the file. You should be able to click "Yes" and the file will transfer without an…

Hi @"Dibrom"! Your feedback regarding this has been very valuable and I will endeavor to make sure your voice is heard.

I'll forward your feedback to the appropriate areas so we can continue to improve. In the meantime, you can also suggest this in our 'Share an idea'…

Happy Wednesday @"Kapriyati"! You should be able to click on the little camera icon when you reply back to me. This way, you should be able to insert your screenshot. 

Hey @"Dibrom", thanks for the screenshots! Since you've unchecked the "external drive backups" box, do you still receive the message when connecting a drive? 

Hi @"tonyob"! Yes, that is correct. At the moment, it'd be only these paths. If you need anything else, I'm here for you.

Hey @"Tito_cm", let's see what we can do here! Provided the verification problem remains for you, would it be okay for me to reach out to you via email, in order for us to have a closer look into this? Keep me posted!

This idea has been passed along to the team for review. Thanks for your suggestion and to everyone who has supported this idea so far!

Hi @"Dibrom", I hope you're doing well! If you open your app's Preferences, and then click the Backups tab, do you see the settings there? If you don't want to set-up the new feature, you should click on 'Don't ask me again' and then 'Not now'. Thanks!
