  • No, there isn't. You have to pause it manually.
  • No. You have never been able to export more than one file at a time using the Dropbox app. If Outlook previously allowed you to attach multiple files, then you need to talk to Microsoft.

If you're doing this from within the Outlook app, then you need to contact Microsoft as it's their app and they seem to have removed that ability.

  • You need a Professional or Business account in order to set a password or expiration on a share link. Remember, in addition to what Mark has stated above, there's nothing stopping a person from sharing not only your link, but the password for that link as well. As soon as you share something with someone else, you lose…
  • Are you opening the file from within Excel by selecting Dropbox in connected services, or are you opening the file from within the Dropbox app, using the Export/Open In option to send the file to Excel?
  • Go into the Files app first and make sure Dropbox is enabled. Once enabled, you can select it when saving files. If it's already enabled, disable and re-enable it.
  • You'll need to ask Microsoft as Outlook is their product. Dropbox has no control over that process.
  • You can set this up with IFTTT. Your applicants wouldn't be able to submit their resumes directly to the IFTTT email (because IFTTT wouldn't know who they were for as it's keyed on the sending email address), but they could submit them to your email (or one you specify) and you would then forward them to IFTTT. *…
  • I'm not familiar with the area you're referring to, and I can't think of anywhere in Dropbox where I've seen a black button with the last modifier listed below it. What platform are you referring to? Can you take a screenshot of what you're seeing and post it here please? The only places that I've known a name to be shown,…

  • First, to clear up any confusion, the Dropbox folder on your computer is a folder like any other. Anything you put in the folder takes up space on your drive. That means that if you copy a file into the Dropbox folder, it now exists in two locations (the original folder and the Dropbox folder) and is taking up twice the…
  • The option to sign out of your account in a browser is available by clicking your avatar. In your screenshot above, that would be the grey circle in the upper right corner. I can say with almost absolute certainty that this is just a browser related issue. It has happened in the past, especially with Chrome, and usually…
  • Clear your browsing history and try again.

  • wrote:... is there way to download it without the ridiculous expense of updating my software. No. Dropbox no longer supports OS X 10.6, .7 or .8. Even if you find a copy of the older Dropbox software, you will not be able to log in with it. * https://www.dropbox.com/help/desktop-web/computer-os-not-supported
  • You haven't described the process you're using. Are you placing the files in your local Dropbox folder and allowing the Dropbox client to sync them, are you using the Dropbox website to upload them? The more information you can provide about the process, the easier it will be to help you troubleshoot.
  • It's possible, but you're on your own to get it working as it is not a supported configuration. The basics of it would be to install Dropbox under the first user and specifiy a common location for the Dropbox folder (a location that both user accounts have full rights to). Wait for Dropbox to finish syncing. Switch to the…
  • How are you uploading the file; using the Dropbox client on your computer, the Dropbox website, or a mobile device? What version of Dropbox are you running? If a mobile device, what platform and version?
  • I've just tested the issue you've described and this seems to be an issue with Outlook, not Dropbox, as Dropbox doesn't control that process. Microsoft created the process of attaching files from within Outlook. They simply use the Dropbox API to do it. In fact, Dropbox doesn't even need to be installed on the device.…
  • Well, Windows is definitely complaining about administrative access, so that's where your problem is. Is the user you specified the same one that you originally installed Dropbox with?
  • I just created a task on Windows 10 without an issue, using the same settings you have above. I entered /home as the argument, it was accepted and the task ran fine. After a quick Google search I came across this: 2147943140 = 0x800702E4 = ERROR_ELEVATION_REQUIRED = The requested operation requires elevation Is your Editor…
  • What platform are you doing this on; computer, mobile, etc.? Please list the exact steps you're taking.

  • @"MaskedGasser" There is currently a known issue related to the downloading of compressed fodlers resulting in corrupt or incomplete Zip files. Dropbox is aware of the issue and is working on it. I'm merging your post into a larger thread where this is already being discussed. [This thread is now closed by moderators due…
  • What platform and what applications is this occurring in? What Dropbox version are you running? The more details you can provide, the easier it will be to assist you.
  • What's the error message that you're getting?
  • I'm closing this thread as it is not related to the issue that you're experiencing. Yes, it's similar, but it was based on a previous limit of 1GB for downloaded folders. The issue you're experiencing happens to folders of any size and it's an issue that Dropbox is aware of. Please use the following thread for any further…
