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.

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…

By clicking the Print icons when previewing or editing a file or, as has been stated, downloading the file and opening it on the computer.

Dropbox不会制作设备。 他们在智能手机应用程序中有一个相机上传功能，可自动上传手机拍摄的照片。 您也可以将相机连接到电脑，Dropbox将上传找到的所有照片。 * https://www.dropbox.com/help/photos-videos/camera-uploads-overview

In short, you can't. Your email address is required to access an account. If you no longer have access to the email in question and you don't know your password (or the password has expired) you can no longer gain access the account. Even if it was a paid account, all Dropbox would help you with is removing the payment…

No idea. It's not an error I'm familiar with (not a Mac user). All I can say for certain is that it's not related to Dropbox. There's quite a few sites in the Google search results where this error is discussed in detail.

That would have been an error from your Mac then, and nothing to do with Dropbox. Dropbox on your computer is just a folder like any other. If you were copying or moving files into it through Finder, then it's Finder reporting that error. If you do a Google search for "Finder error -43" you'll see a lot of results…

Dot Underscore ( ._ ) files, otherwise known at AppleDouble files, are created by Apple's OS X or macOS operating system, typically when you store files on a non-native hard drive partition. They're used to hold extended attribute information that cannot be written to the partition along side the files. This is most common…

Ok, we seem to be confusing two separate features. AutoSave (as shown in your screenshot), and the feature that automatically saves files every 10 minutes for file recovery. The feature you're referring to does not work with local folders. It can only be enabled and used with OneDrive, OneDrive for Business or Sharepoint…

The floating Dropbox logo is the Dropbox Badge. It doesn't allow simultaneous editing, but does alert you when others are in the document and it allows you to load the latest changes if any, among other things. Simultaneous editing is possible and has been for a long time through the Dropbox website (the same way Google…

Then I'd suggest that there's something else preventing it. The Dropbox folder is just a folder like any other. Can you select a folder elsewhere on your computer?

You can request it in the feature requests section of the forums.

The ability to organize your folders already exists. It's possible to have folders and sub-folders and structure them how you want. In fact, if you have the Dropbox client installed on your computer, any folder structure you create in the Dropbox folder will be synced to your account online.

There's also a noticeable performance hit on the Dropbox client if you have more than 300,000 files, especially for older computers. https://www.dropbox.com/help/space/file-storage-limit

You can't, and this is by design. Anyone can rename a shared folder in their Dropbox without it affecting other members. This allows them to name it something meaningful to them. For instance, if I created a folder called Stewart and shared it with you, the name wouldn't mean anything to you. You could rename it to "Rich"…
