Dropbox has never had the ability to show who has viewed a file. There is the ability to leave a comment on a file, which would obviously indicate that they have viewed it (you have to view to be able to comment), but that is not a valid indicator of everyone that may have viewed the file. That information is simply not…

Dropbox doesn't provide timelines or really any information on what features it may or may not be considering. We likely won't know if they plan on adding native PDF support until they actually add it or announce it. I'll move this thread to the feature requests area so others can request it as well.

The ability to edit is only available when sharing a folder. If you're sharing a file only, the view option will be the only one available. If you need to give edit access to a file, put the file in a folder and share the folder.

The files aren't on the computer so your backup software can't back them up. If it tries to access the files, Dropbox is likely bringing them local just like it's supposed to do (no different from when you access a file that's Online Only; it's downloaded). Dropbox likely can't differentiate between you accessing a file or…

@"Jane" Although @"pbuckland" uses the phrase "selective sync" I don't believe he's referring to the actual Selective Sync feature within Dropbox. I believe his complaint is that even though he has his entire Dropbox set to Online Only, new folders that are added within a share are still being downloaded to his computer. I…

There's nothing outlined here as it's not a supported configuration. It likely involves creating symlinks to the original folder location within the sync folder of the storage service. Symlinks are also not supported within Dropbox as Dropbox is not able to sync their content in real-time (the operating system doesn't…

It's highly not recommended to have two separate sync services, regardless of which ones, syncing the same data locations. As you've discovered, sync errors are bound to occur. It's possible, but highly problematic and is completely unsupported.

If you have a Business account, it will be available through the support tools in your Admin console. If you have a Personal account that includes chat support, you can just go to the usual Support URL and the Live Chat option will be listed if it's available to you. * https://www.dropbox.com/support

All of the share links you posted (the first three are valid) work just fine, so there's no problem with the links themselves. If the link with ?raw=1 does not work within the application, then you'll need to contact Magento Support. My guess is that the application doesn't accept URLs that don't end in a recognizable file…

And just to add... I don't think upgrading to Business will help. It might have provided more information had you already had a Business account before the item was shared, but that information will not be available retroactively.

Password protecting your computer user account is the ONLY solution you should consider. If your computer user account is not protected then all of your files anywhere on your computer are accessible, along with the Dropbox application preferences. If you don't protect your user account and instead rely on security by…

You will not lose any earned space by changing your email address.

Do you have either a Professional account or a Business account that has opted in to Early Access? Smart Sync is only available in those cases. For Professional accounts, you can just right-click a file or folder and you'll see a Smart Sync option with selections for Local and Online Only. The same holds true for Business…

When you delete your account, it's gone immediately. It cannot be recovered. Dropbox will never use your files. Please stop asking the same question over and over again or you could find that your posts are removed.

You need to provide more information about how you're trying to access the files before anyone will know how best to help you.

File size is only limited by the amount of space available in your account. When using the Dropbox client, files of any size can be uploaded provided you have enough space in your account. If uploading through the website, there's a 20GB file size limit, though the larger the file the more problematic it is. There are no…

What steps are you taking? If you're starting within the Gmail app and it's not letting you, then you need to contact Google as they would be the ones to support that function. From the Dropbox app, you can export the file and chose the Open In option and select the Gmail app. It should open the app and start a new message…

When you remove the last member, Dropbox can't assume that you want to unshare the folder. What if you were removing everyone to add a new set of people? You'd have to go through the sharing process again. It's better to not assume anything and allow you to unshare the folder when you're ready.

Permanently deleted files are deleted, permanently. They cannot be recovered.

Not only are they prone to issues like you experienced, but also loss of data under certain circumstances. The Dropbox client will now let you move the Dropbox folder to an external drive…

Highly unlikely. Have you looked to see where the 13GB of data is actually located? If it's taking up that space on your drive, it has to be somewhere.

Is there a lot of activity in the shared folder? If so, as files are deleted, Dropbox doesn't actually delete them right away. It stores deletions in the hidden .dropbox.cache folder in the root of your Dropbox folder. Deleted files are typically kept for 3 days before being purged. This is done to aide in recovery in case…
