  • @"Hannu J K" Also keep in mind that the tags feature is still a Beta and has not been rolled out for everyone yet. Features such as this are usually rolled out to small groups first for testing, before being rolled out to a wider audience. Once the beta is over, the tags feature will likely be available to more account…
  • @"Rich" wrote:... the solution originally posted in this thread in 2016, which was to disable Camera Uploads, no longer applies.
  • @"Hannu J K" wrote:I have Business Professional and i cant not find the option. It's available for Business teams. Professional is still considered an individual plan; not a team plan.
  • @"Kiwiman" wrote:... when using the 'scan document' facility on the app it was saving a pdf image that looked like a genuine scan. Now the image looks like a photo. To my knowledge no settings have been changed. That has always been an option when "scanning" a file into Dropbox. You can choose between Black & White,…
  • @"Graybell" wrote:Can two users with two separate accounts on one mac computer have equal access to the same dropbox folder? Or does the second user need to create a new dropbox folder for the same dropbox account? If you're both signing in to the same Dropbox account and the Dropbox folder is located in a common area…
  • @"tom_stein" wrote:Dropbox say that you have to disable it - but you can't. Yes, you can. You disable Camera Uploads by changing the autoplay settings so Dropbox doesn't import your photos. If Dropbox isn't listed in your autoplay settings, then Camera Uploads is disabled. I also stated above that there are more features…
  • @"Gigabyte" wrote:Dropbox now hasn't settings to disable Camera uploads. It never has, at least on Windows. You disable it by changing the autoplay settings so Dropbox isn't listed for the device.
  • @"Chogooi49" wrote:I would also find this very useful. Info in received emails should be able to directly be forwarded to my Dropbox account to a “email” general and then I can go in and put them in a specific folder. At the time this thread was created, no such feature existed within Dropbox. That is no longer the case. *…
  • The dropbox.device file is being used by more features than the Camera Uploads now, so the solution in this (VERY OLD) thread really doesn't apply anymore. The file is used to remember your preferences for drives you insert. You may get a notification to upload photos or backup a drive when you insert a new drive, and…
  • @"Thomasmcdonough25" wrote: I want my money back it charged my PayPal an hour ago and this isn’t even my account Refer to my reply at the top of this thread. You need to contact Support, and contact PayPal.
  • @"MJP-Arlington" wrote:How do I move dropbox totally to my D drive without messing up any of my data files? Use the option in Dropbox Preferences to relocate the folder to another location. I would highly suggest NOT storing the Dropbox folder on an external or removable drive. Under the right conditions, data loss can…

  • @"Mushky" wrote: I was wondering if its possible to pre-schedule moving a file from one folder to the next? Dropbox has no such feature.
  • @"TJV01" wrote:I had the impression that the "Basic Plan" was a FREE service, and yet I'm receiving from Dropbox charges of $19.00/month. The Basic plan is free. If you're being charged then it's for another account, and the $19/month cost would seem to be for a Professional account. Use the credit card charge lookup tool…
  • @"PVRnyc" wrote: I think they used to upload but now I don’t know where/how to find them on Dropbox. All photos and videos that are uploaded using Camera Uploads are uploaded to the Camera Uploads folder. By default, Dropbox uploads items from your Camera Roll. You can select other albums to upload in Camera Uploads…
  • @"SpacBogdan97" wrote:Any ideas on how my files were deleted, or any suggestion on how to recover them would be appreciated. Thanks! Dropbox doesn't delete your files like that. If your account was idle for more than a year, the entire account would be deleted due to inactivity, but it wouldn't delete just a subset of…
  • @"Michael L.80" wrote:hmm my Preferences doesn't look like yours and it doesn't have that option. Here is what I see: I'm on Windows so it looks a bit different, but the same option is right there in your screenshot. Just change it to Dropbox desktop app.
  • @"Michael L.80" wrote:When I run the Dropbox application on Mojave or Cataline Mac OS, instead of the application, it just opens a new Finder window. I want the application back - how do I run it? Go into Dropbox Preferences and make sure it's set to open folders in the app, and not Finder.
  • @"barrymcw" wrote:If I have an external HD, can I sync it as a "second location" of my Dropbox folder. I want it to be identical to my current Dropbox folder, but with different Smart Sync settings. That's not possible. Dropbox will only sync to a single Dropbox folder. You can move the folder to another location (external…
  • @"simmsg" wrote:I just started backing up a new computer. The previous two show up in Dropbox as My PC (PC Name) but this third one shows up as PC (3). That is how the folders are now named. The first one will be named PC. Subsequent folders will be named PC (2), PC (3), etc. It was a change that was implemented to…
  • @"Wilewood" wrote:I'm having the same issue - no option to delete under the elipsis, right clicking, nothing. Please post a screenshot showing the issue. Be sure to mask any private or personal information.
  • @"filesentandreceive" wrote:I am unable to copy multiple file names as text. I need to export file names from Dropbox. Dropbox has no such feature.
  • @"Jennifer G.29" wrote:Now the file transfer is done. I've disconnected and reconnected, restarted, renamed the drive on another computer, and I can't get that popup again. Check the drive for hidden files. I can't comment on the drive backup function, but when you use Camera Uploads, Dropbox drops a hidden file on the…
  • @"Nova Integrated Systems" wrote:... with these images dropbox thinks they are getting deleted and a new file is being uploaded with each new update. So the link degrades when the image is being updated. This will happen when the process that is saving the files is first deleting the original before saving the new version,…

  • @"Jonassis" wrote:the problem is, my version of the client does not offer the option to "Toggle Dropbox system extension to off." The problem you're having is that the setting you're looking for is not part of the Dropbox client. As the article you linked mentioned, that setting is in your Account settings on the Dropbox…
  • @"JM582" wrote:Now I don't want the other folders/files on that computer so I'm thinking I need to delete ALL the other folders that got downloaded locally. NO! NO! NO! Doing that would delete them from Dropbox which would sync those deletions to your account. When you uncheck a folder in Selective Sync, Dropbox will…
  • @"plshalp" wrote:The dropbox app is working because it is giving me the option to send with transfer, but it isn't giving me the option to Copy Dropbox Link. Where is the file located? The Copy Dropbox link option is only available when you right-click on a file or folder located within your Dropbox folder. Clicking on…
  • @"dmpus" wrote:I searched in both phone internal folder structure as well as sdcard and could not find dropbox anywhere. If you're trying to access the files through your phone's file manager/directly in the operating system, that's no longer possible. A change made about a year ago now has the files stored in a location…
