Dell_Dropbox Dropboxer

Hey everyone, just jumping in with some extra info on the file in question: You can safely ignore the .dropbox file. It is a hidden system file used by the Dropbox desktop app on macOS and is not meant to sync or appear on dropbox.com. The error you are seeing is a File Provider message and does not affect your account or…

Welcome to the community @"cteafoe" Thanks for the screenshot. Once a Dropbox Transfer has expired, it can’t be reactivated, which is why the button is grayed out. The Reactivate option only works before the expiration date. To resend the files, you’ll need to create a new transfer by uploading them again. You can find…

@"Jasper B.3" It sounds like the closer you edge towards the 300k limit its introducing a some friction. You should have a message from Dropbox in your email as support continues to work on this. 

This is awesome news to hear. we occasionally see people in the community here who are running really old operating systems

Welcome to the community @"amif2000", great to see you making suggestions right off the bat! First off, a little explanation of what you saw: Renaming very large folders can trigger extended backend processing, and during that time you may see temporary states like files briefly appearing in Deleted files. While this can…

@"hjhworks" thanks for dropping by the community. I started looking into this issue on your behalf and discovered that we recently redesigned our List View, and the 'Large List' option has been removed. Because this is a new change, some Dropbox customers can be temporarily opted-out and have the 'Large List' view…

Hey there @"flingfuelexit18171231" welcome to the community You can absolutely move your existing Dropbox folder to your new Mac without re-downloading everything. The easiest method is to copy your entire Dropbox folder from your old Mac to the new one using an external drive, then install Dropbox and point it to that…

Thanks for dropping by the community and sharing this @"a_endari" When did this issue start for you exactly? As a first step, please try restarting Finder and then toggling the Dropbox Finder integration off and back on from Dropbox preferences. In many cases, that resets the extension state and stops the repeated refresh.

Thanks for dropping by with this suggestion @"dfarrellpd" To make sure we’re looking at the same behavior, could you tell me whether Dropbox is assigned to a specific Space in macOS? You can check this by right clicking the Dropbox icon in your Dock, choosing Options, and looking at the “Assign To” setting. If Dropbox is…

@"BullfrogDrop" Items that appear in your Viewed Links section are simply files or folders that were shared with you through a link. They are not stored in your Dropbox and do not take up any space in your account unless you choose to save them to your Dropbox. The person who originally shared the content controls access.…

Hey there @"Cheryl1f" welcome to the community! At the moment, the Dropbox desktop app always opens to the Activity view, and there isn’t a setting available to change the default page to show folders instead. You can still open your folders quickly by selecting Open Dropbox folder from the Dropbox icon in your system tray…

Hey there @"SillyGoose23" welcome to the community It looks like Windows is trying to redirect your Downloads folder to a Dropbox Backup path like Dropbox\PC\Downloads, but that folder no longer exists. When this happens, Windows can’t resolve the folder location and downloads will fail until the folder path is restored.…
