Rich Super User II

If you're uploading files through the browser, then closing the tab or the browser will cancel the upload. It needs to remain open for the upload to finish. If you use the Dropbox client on your computer instead, it will continue syncing your files in the background, and will even pause/resume the sync process if you need…

That's a function of the browser that you're using, and not Dropbox. Look in settings/preferences/options for whatever browser you're using.

There is no such listing. When viewing your Files page, any files shared in that manner will show icons for the people you've shared them with. In the screenshot below, that's the RR icon that you see, indicating that I've shared the file with myself (through another account). How a shared file is displayed

No. Una vez que desvincula una computadora, no hay manera de eliminar remotamente los archivos. Usted tendría que estar en la computadora para volver a vincularlo.

Il ne peut y avoir qu'un seul propriétaire d'un dossier partagé. Si vous donnez à quelqu'un d'autre la propriété d'une action, vous ne serez plus le propriétaire.

You'll need to talk to InfiniteWP. They're the ones that would have created the software, so only they can support it. Dropbox only provides the API. InfiniteWP is responsible for any application that they create which uses it.

Disable Camera Uploads. https://help.dropbox.com/create-upload/camera-uploads-overview#turn-off-on-uploads-mobile-app-android

That's something you would need to program yourself using the Dropbox API. After the uses passes the file to your website, you'll need to create your own code to then pass that file to your Dropbox account. Topic moved to the API forum.

You seem to be asking two separate things; how to save a file to your Dropbox from a share link, and how someone using the Chooser can send you a file. What is it that you actually need to do? If you're viewing a share link and you want to save the file to your Dropbox, click the down arrow on the Download button and…

If I receive an email and I'm not on my computer (or I'm on one of my many computers that doesn't have Dropbox installed), I have to download the attachment, open a browser, go to dropbox.com and upload the file.

Doing a bit of testing (and actually reading what was on screen), the share/files pages I linked to above shows you the files that have been shared with you, and not those that you have shared. The only place you can see files that you've shared is within the Files list itself (there is no display showing all the files…

How do you know they're shared files? Can you take a screenshot?

https://www.dropbox.com/share/files

How did you share it? If you created a link to the file, it will be listed on the Links page. If you invited the person to the file, it will be listed on the Sharing page under the Files tab.

You can see a list of your shared folders on the Sharing page and a list of all share links on the Links page, but that's it. Dropbox does not have a way to list all of the files shared within those folders.

danj, It won't be Dropbox doing that. It's simply not programmed to do that. The only way Dropbox would add a photo back is if you open the photo in the Dropbox app and choose to save it back to your phone. If your photos reappear in your camera roll after you delete them, then it's likely another process that is doing it.…
