@"lausbd" wrote:I'm looking to use dropbox to store images for a website. Don't do this. Dropbox isn't designed to be a web host and you will run in to problems, eventually. Use a proper image host for this.

Provided there's no confidential information shown, can you take a screenshot from the Dropbox website of one or two of the folders that won't sync?

@"daniel Guijarro" wrote:I have not syncronised dropbox in the last 6 months. I deceided to move out from dorpbox ... and all files a d documents created in the last six months have disappear ... If Dropbox hasn't synchronized, then there's no way for Dropbox to recover the files. Dropbox can only recover files that were…

@"bersona3" wrote:... isn't Dropbox supposed to give you warnings via email that your account will be deleted? They do. They send several emails before an account is deleted. To be sure, take a look at your Events page. If it's empty, or only showing events since you recently signed back in, then you're most likely on a…

@"kristies2" wrote:... I want to go back to the way it was so I can see the other folders. ... but I cannot find anything that will allow me to see all the folders... It sounds like you removed the folders using Selective Sync. Go back into Select Sync settings and check the folders again.

@"PEG1901" wrote:I have been billed for 3 years on my credit card for DropBox's Signature plan, formerly known as Hell0Sign at $180. ... Someone must have set me up in their plan 3 years ago. You'll need to contact Dropbox Support directly. Visit the Support page while you're NOT signed in to a Dropbox account, including…

@"Missyvetty" wrote:Could I essentially use one link in my email signature for all clients? Or would they be able to see all documents in there when they click on the link? You can use one link. They won't be able to see anything, not even the files they upload themselves. It's a true "drop box" within Dropbox.

@"Squat" wrote:What is with these automated reponses? They're not automated responses. If you're uploading files manually in the mobile apps, there's no way to select all photos at once. You can select them all, but you have to do it one at a time.

@"Missyvetty" wrote:I don't even know if this is possible, but I want to add a link to my emails for clients to be able to send their personal documents to me securely. You can use the File Request feature for that. * https://help.dropbox.com/share/create-file-request

@"janpihl" wrote:I have exactly the same problem on brand ned PR4100. You'll need to contact WD support for assistance. The Dropbox app you're using is created by them, not Dropbox, and uses the Dropbox API to make the connection to your account. They'll likely need to update their app if it's no longer connecting…

@"ArjenR" wrote: Only thing I can think of is to cancel and repurchase the same subscription but in a 'new country '. Any other suggestions? That's exactly what you need to do. You can't change to a different currency on an active account. Cancel your current subscription. You'll retain your account benefits until your…

@"bersona3" wrote:I just signed in to access my older files ... after not having signed in for a good while, and everything is gone. No files, no folders, nothing in deleted files ... How long has it been since you last used the account? If it's been more than a year, the account would have been deleted due to inactivity,…

@"shaneh" wrote:I can't even view all of the contents on Dropbox.com. If the content isn't appearing on Dropbox.com, then it hasn't been uploaded to Dropbox yet. The website will show you everything in the folder, even if it's not syncing down to your computer. For items you can see that won't sync, make sure the file and…

@"Johnnz59" wrote:I am now wanting to delete files to free up space again, however it is not showing any files to delete. Check your Backups page.

@"Wnlewis1988" wrote: How do I get an actual email or phone number to contact support. You can find the support options that are available to you on the Support page. Basic (free) accounts have access to the various self-help options such as the chat bot, help center articles or posting questions here on the forums. Paid…

@"Keinomieli" wrote: I'm missing the right-click context menu to "Don't sync to Dropbox" In the past there was no such option so I'm not sure what the help article is referring to when it says to right-click the file. Perhaps it's something new that's not fully rolled out yet. Since you don't have the option on the context…

@"Pathirny" wrote:I know that these are short life tokens but I was wondering if I can get a token which has a longer life? Or if there is a call I can make to refresh the access token every 4 hours? Long-lived access tokens are no longer available. You need to use short-lived tokens along with a refresh token. *…

@"Peter R.42" wrote:I then invited a couple of clients by sending them the link, and they tell me they have access but their avatars don't show up... Sending someone a shared link to a folder doesn't invite them as a member of the folder. The link just provides them with view/download access. If you want to see them appear…

@"janejanejo" wrote:... dropbox was asking me to sign in. When I signed in all my files are gone. It is like a new account. Look at your Events page. If you don't see any activity, then you're signed in to a new, empty account, and you likely have another account under a different email address. If that's the case, look…

@"Jim B.45" wrote:On Windows you can change the location of your Desktop and Documents folders. The OP is on a Mac, which doesn't have the ability to relocate those folders, so Jay's comment is correct. The entire Home folder can be moved, but not the individual folders within.

And just to add, when viewing the empty form before trying to submit it the first time, the Employment section is there and marked as required, though it's easy to miss as there are no fields visible to start with. @"BenDBX" Perhaps the initial set of fields can be made visible to show that they're required, and clicking…

I fill out all the boxes and when I hit submit it brings me to the top of the page and does not submit my application. Are you sure that you're not missing any fields? I just tested the form. The first attempt failed to submit and I was brought back to the top of the page, but if I scrolled to the bottom there was a…

@"steve_nyc_qns" wrote:Please make the preferences and selective sync options available from web browser, and phone app. Personally, I don't want to have to use a web site or phone app to control an application that's already on my computer. Preferences, and the options within, are just fine where they are.

@"CFLEMING1" wrote:I am trying to upload an older video and it says the link doesn't work anymore. Can you help? You're trying to upload a file to your own account, or to someone else's? Is this a link that was given to you? If so, you would need to go back to the person that gave it to you. If that's not the case, you'll…

@"JStak" wrote:In my last response I disclosed the OS and app version I am using. You're posting in two different threads. I'm merging all of your replies into one thread.

@"mgambrell" wrote:The problem is simple. On Windows 10, when right-clicking in the empty space in an explorer directory set to "Large Icons" view, no dropbox context menu appears. Windows 10. Explorer set to show large icons. Dropbox context menu options are visible when right-clicking the empty space.

@"jasonaspears" wrote:I just noticed DB is ending support for Win 8.1 Pro. I will not be upgrading my OS. How will I continue to sync files to my DB account. You won't be able to. Once they officially drop support for Windows 8.1, the Dropbox application will stop working a short time later. Once that happens, you won't be…

@"NNenov" wrote:I think a new update was maybe pushed, and now if I click the dropbox icon in the taskbar I no longer see any settings, only a search bar and recent files ... Try the legacy menu. CTRL-click the icon.
