Dropbox ne peut pas se synchroniser si l'ordinateur entre dans une forme quelconque de veille. Les modes veille, veille hybride et veille prolongée entraînent la suspension de vos programmes (pas uniquement de Dropbox, mais de tous les programmes). Pour que Dropbox continue à se synchroniser, vous devez configurer Windows…

If a file doesn't stay set to Online-only, then an application or some other process on your computer is accessing the file, causing Dropbox to download it again. In my case, it was my antivirus attempting to scan the files. You'll need to figure out what application is accessing the files, then prevent it from doing so.

@"rob877" wrote:Do you have any special characters in the offending file or folder name? Illegal characters is a common cause of that, as is a files that's in use or locked by another process.

@"information" wrote:does it mean that if the file were small in kb will be stopped download if exceed 100,000 download even though did not exceed 20gb? and if file were big like 10gb then 2nd download will be the limit bandwith? Yes, exactly. Note that those limits are for a 24-hour period and reset each day.

Correct on all counts with one addition; when you open an Online-only file and Dropbox pulls it local, it remains a local file until you again mark it as Online-only.

Make sure you click the Files link first, then Photos should be available just below it. You can also just access the Photos page by typing the URL in your browser's address bar. * https://www.dropbox.com/photos

Uninstall and reinstall the app. That will clear everything from it. It also fully clears the cache, which the app itself is not great at doing itself.

What was the original name of the folder? It was likely using a character that's considered illegal on your operating system, so Dropbox wasn't able to create it locally.

That link works fine. If the link isn't working on whatever platform you're trying to use it on, they they likely don't support URLs that don't end in a proper image extention. In such cases you won't be able to use Dropbox to host the image. [This thread is now closed by moderators due to inactivity. If you're…

@"Noelle N." wrote:... I see that the deleted file is reappearing from the "API app". What does that mean? It means a third-party app (using Dropbox's API) that you've linked to your account is placing the file in your Dropbox. You can see all the apps linked to your account on the following page: *…

For the hosting of an image, the information above is incomplete. A share link to a file will open in the Dropbox preview page. Using those links in an <img> tag will result in broken imaged. You need to change the ?dl=0 at the end of the link to ?raw=1. Just know that some platforms will still reject such links because…

Are you using BitLocker or any other type of encryption on the drive? In the Linux world where ext4 is the supported file system for Dropbox, ext4 with encryption gives the same message (unsupported file system).

No, that's not possible. All devices linked to an account will upload to the same Camera Uploads folder. You could create two folders and move your photos to your own folder as soon as you're done uploading, leaving the Camera Uploads folder empty until the next upload.

No, there isn't, and there really shouldn't be. Not everyone has a conenction that can handle streaming of HD content, and forcing that on a viewer could cause problems or present a negative experience for them.

Any video that is previewed from Dropbox directly will be a transcoded version of the original, which plays in a lower quality and is time limited based on your account level (maximum of 15 minutes, 1 hour or 4 hours). The only way to view the original version of a video is to download it and play it locally. You can…

@"Dgmtexas" wrote:... I get "This operation isn't permitted", I'm the owner of this account You're the owner of the account, but are you the owner of the folder, and if not, do you have edit permissions to the folder? Unless you have been given edit access to a shared folder, you won't be able to delete the files within.

It's the Screenshots option, which you already have unchecked. Just have SnagIt re-capture the Print Screen key and you should be all set. If Dropbox keeps offering to save screenshots, go back to this screen, check the Screenshots box and click Apply, then uncheck it and click Apply again. Then have SnagIt grab the key.

The only key that I"m aware of Dropbox using is Print Screen. It's associated with screenshots being saved to Dropbox. You'll need to disable screenshots in Dropbox Preferences, on the Import tab, then recapture the Print Screen key within SnagIt.

Did you join the Business team using your existing account? Do you only have one email address that you use with Dropbox? If so, then your personal account would have been merged into the Business team, and your personal account no longer exists. It's now a part of the team and owned by the company. If that's the case,…

What I'm telling you, "mate," is that you need to understand what that speed is referring to, and not just compare it to a transfer speed you get from another service that doesn't do the same chunking of files that Dropbox has to do before transferring anything. I'm not saying Dropbox is faster or even as fast as other…
