  • powerroadmap Adapt, or Be Left Behind (@powerroadmap) reported

    @Adrian__mxli … there is software that can enhance it like audacity… key is to separate the voices… if you want load file into an external drive like dropbox or Google Drive send me the link via DM and I’ll see if I can run it through all my software for you I use for my podcasts and fix it

  • brandonland_ Brandon (@brandonland_) reported

    @Jordon_Cheung Terrible process but I’ve got iCloud and usually backup with Dropbox manually. It’s a pain in the ***.

  • triffidTV Triffid TV 🐀 @niceontoast@mastodon.social (@triffidTV) reported

    @workbench_tv I had this problem with Citrix Sharefile (horrible, horrible bit of software) and managed to circumvent it with a symlink. No idea if this works with Dropbox but agreed - it's unwieldy. In their defence I think it's to do with security from Apple, not a DB design choice.

  • paulwilsonimage 𝗣𝗮𝘂𝗹 ✨️ (@paulwilsonimage) reported

    @DaveAustin @Dropbox has been terrible. It's a human I'm talking to and I tell them what's up and my situation, then they ask me my problem and situation. Twice now. They don't read a word. Just follow some script

  • chrisatlatenite Chris Hocking (@chrisatlatenite) reported

    @david_peterson @sam_plue @wjqi0430 Probably something to do with sandboxing and the continued locking down of things? Interesting it’s happening around same time that Dropbox is racing to update their app using the File Provider API, due to kernel extensions being deprecated… soon?

  • alanaclements1 MrsG_in_Doha 🇶🇦 (@alanaclements1) reported

    @DropboxSupport Prove to me your customer service isn’t Terrible!!! I need help with an account. Can you please get in touch

  • NU_GPRL NU Global Poverty Research Lab (@NU_GPRL) reported

    @boxcryptor @Dropbox We have been approved to upgrade the number of users on our Boxcryptor account ASAP, but we're haven't received an invoice or confirmation that our account has been upgraded. We're having trouble reaching your support team. Who can help us?

  • iqwitmusic witstopher nolan (@iqwitmusic) reported

    @prodby1995_ i always keep 1 manual backup, 1 time machine backup, 1 dropbox backup, and one backblaze backup. getting a private server soon.

  • motherfood Hilary Jacobson (@motherfood) reported

    @babycosette @robyncaplan I pdf them right up to dropbox, and when I have time, I put them into folders. I have to remember to make a hard copy of my dropbox now and then -- imagine when / if that goes down.

  • UrVileLormaster Rusty Shackleford (@UrVileLormaster) reported

    @xrossfader Sounds like this is Apple's doing rather than DropBox? This is going to be a major problem for lots of industries - legal, music, tv/movie production, off the top of my head. I foresee potential litigation.

  • rendernyc danny princz (@rendernyc) reported

    @workbench_tv Well this is terrible news… so if we don’t upgrade our OS we are safe for now? Our business and freelancers are built off a shared Dropbox solution that has to live on external drives for soace!

  • makerofthings7 Christopher Jon Mankowski (@makerofthings7) reported

    SFZ can issue “DO NOT ADVISE” for engineering or product structures Audience can be restricted, Dropbox or ftp fine, I’ll consolidate and distribute Why? Spirit’s going to do it? No we have to do it. I don’t know the lines. Mine to draw, knit , knit not?

  • j_ssuarez Jesus Suarez (@j_ssuarez) reported

    @workbench_tv I dont have any issues but it looks like with newer versions of MacOS ypur dropbox folder cannot be anywhere else other than the system drive

    Having some problems with Dropbox and can't access my content rn 🙃 if you're waiting on content from me please bare with and I'll get it to you asap!

  • pussydisease meow 🔞 (@pussydisease) reported

    my prof told me that people had issues with the dropbox system but if the issues are it deleting my entire VIDEO GAME then were gonna have a problem. i am so lucky to have a backup that's not as far as i was prior to this but im not starting from ground zero at least oh mygod

  • TvanHelsdingen Tim van Helsdingen (@TvanHelsdingen) reported

    @HugoCGuerra @xrossfader @Dropbox Ah, yeah you’re not gonna get that over nas, that’ll cap out at 1100/1200 ish. I think this is a apple issue mostly. So let’s hope apple fixes this soon

  • billwadman Bill Wadman (@billwadman) reported

    @gerik Most of the time I just upload files via the web on FIOS. then it pulls them down onto the Synology in the closet as my main Dropbox store. But I agree the inability to move the main dropbox folder is a huge feature reduction.

  • workbench_tv Workbench (@workbench_tv) reported

    @JBowdacious @triffidTV There was also a time period where Dropbox didn't like symlinks at all. I've never run into issues with mine, but they have a spotty past from what I've seen in help docs.

  • shannyeight Shanny 8 (@shannyeight) reported

    @yoshisquared I will put some stuff/WIP on my Dropbox, but right now I have this issue where the transitions with me going from laptop to my iPad are clunky af, so for the most part I just save my stuffs to my external HDs or a USB stick.

  • enlightenedlg Laura (@enlightenedlg) reported

    Have a follow up and labs with my GI doc tomorrow am. I find it really helpful to write down symptom summary and questions I have (and save my notes in Dropbox) in advance so I don't forget things AND can compare to how I've been doing at time of past visits.

  • DaveTech_best Dave Tech (@DaveTech_best) reported

    Want to track a lost phone? ? iCloud is broken? ? From which Gmail destination are messages accessed? Inbox me I am available 24/7 #CYBER #dropbox #Hacked

  • sepulchra Michael Raphael (@sepulchra) reported

    @audiogibbs i have a couple of things going: 1. I sync to dropbox if I'm not working directly on it, which i i often am. 2. I also sync to secondary backup volume 3. I have a script the runs these chronosync tasks that I fire off with @alfredapp and it also runs when i quit pro tools.

  • OGeA20247 Oge (@OGeA20247) reported

    @playrustconsole Just leave the server how they are until New content is available why wipe the servers if nothing new is going to be added my base Is always unraiable I don't use doors only Dropbox in 3rd floor

  • macdesigner macdesigner (@macdesigner) reported

    @DropboxSupport Yes. Still happening. There is some synching (quite slow) but keeps quitting unexpectedly.

  • bakabubbs BAKABUBBS (@bakabubbs) reported

    @DropboxSupport Drag & Drop feature doesnt seem to be working for me. Specically C or D drives drag to app. Its been going on for a week or so. I was wondering was there any bug issues I should know about. Or is is more a case just remove then reinstall to fix?

  • DEGrilloLeon Douglas Grillo (@DEGrilloLeon) reported

    @j_ssuarez I stopped using Dropbox several years ago and use Google Drive, not a single issue yet.

  • ChelseaHelene18 Chelsea Crosby, M.Sc. (@ChelseaHelene18) reported from Prairie View, Texas

    @DropboxSupport Multiple issues I think. The email address that is linked to the sign-in no longer exists. I have the right password I think but I get a one time code sent to that email when I enter it

  • ecpowellmusic Eric C. Powell Music (@ecpowellmusic) reported

    Extensions Cont'd: On Monterey, I had extension errors with Matt Ingallls (Soundflower) and Roland (unknown) marked for "future" incompatibility, and Dropbox as incompatible (I'm sure there is an update). I removed all three. 3/

  • ScottRamsay76 Scott Ramsay (@ScottRamsay76) reported

    @j_ssuarez Has this been implemented yet? I’m running Ventura with an M1 Mac Studio and DropBox on an external drive with no issues currently.
