I pay for a drop box subscription. Today I had to request to reset my password. When I did that and tried to reopen on my desktop, my account did not restore & it does not show my paid plan. It is now showing as the "free" plan and all my years files are missing. Is there any way to speak with someone live and drop box to…
Hello, We have installed dropbox into my sons pc with my reference…but hes ineligible for some reason, most probably we are using same network at home. this is a completely legitimate new user (my son ) who signed up on his own physical computer, but it was flagged because his device was connected to our shared family…
Implement "online-only" option for files sync in the Linux Desktop app/CLI, as it already exists in Windows and macOS applications (https://help.dropbox.com/pt-br/sync/make-files-online-only). This is an old request in the Linux community, as we can see in the forums listed below:…
Hi everyone, I’m trying to set up Dropbox on File Provider with the Dropbox folder on an external drive, but setup always fails with Errno 513 (NSCocoaErrorDomain Code=513, “The file couldn’t be saved because you don’t have permission”). Choosing the default location on the internal drive works fine. Setup Mac mini, macOS…
I'm on a free Dropbox Basic account. My storage breakdown shows 3.9 GB under Backup, but there is no active backup on my current PC, and the computer that originally created that backup no longer exists. The backed-up files do not appear anywhere in my file browser, and unlinking old devices (including several) does not…
In Windows, when I right-click a file in File Explorer and choose Copy Dropbox link, the link goes straight to the clipboard. Nothing shows whether it is a view link or an edit link.
On 25 Oct 2026, I was shocked to realize some of my files were missing from Dropbox. So I went to Dropbox online - under deleted files. And I was shocked to see a total of 119 files deleted on 23 Oct 2026. I didn’t delete them and it’s randomized. I had to go press restore for all of them. Was there any recent glitches or…
I love the auto play when I’m in a specific folder. I often set audio files up so that I can listen to them in autoplay. But in recents, which it newly began auto playing, is counter productive as it goes through something like a song I’m working on, to a video. While I’m driving, this is basically a hazard. So I would…
I am not happy with the recent change in the Dropbox mobile app that displays modification dates beneath file and folder names. It suddenly appeared today with no notice or explanation, and it does not appear to arise from an app update. This additional information clutters the interface, wastes valuable screen space, and…

Sometimes I keep taking photos of the same thing until I get a good shot (or a few good shots), and then I delete the rest that I don't want to keep. But if Camera Uploads is on, I have to delete them in Dropbox too. This can sometimes become quite annoying, especially if I want to keep the 2nd or 3rd last shot, I have to…
with the latest update the file list font and arrangement are very nice but prefer the Star to be like before, off to the right, alone, large and very easy to see. This new version with it being a smaller font gets lost in the format as you have to much harder. Before is was so quick as it stood out. Alternatively, adding…
