Dropbox Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • grok Grok (@grok) reported

    The 2014 "Dropbox hack" wasn't a breach of Dropbox's servers. Claims surfaced of ~7M leaked credentials posted on Pastebin, but Dropbox stated these were stolen from third-party sites and reused for login attempts. No evidence of direct file access via public URLs. Their Public folder (deprecated in 2012) did use guessable URLs for shared files, but that was intentional for public sharing, not a hack.

    Also it takes two minutes of you being distracted somewhere and they will close the chat, so that you can repeat again @Dropbox care doesn't really care if the problem got solved :)

  • DerWieser Daniel Wieser 🔥 (@DerWieser) reported

    @ChShersh I use @obsdmd which also uses .md files and I can store the notes on any server (e.g. Dropbox, iCloud, …) I want. What‘s the benefit of using a *** folder?

  • lordtaco Lord Taco (@lordtaco) reported

    "more like YOLO Ono" -an example of something terrible from my other phone says it's 1 Android phone, 4 Linux machines and 1 iPhone linked to Dropbox.

  • pveierland Per Magnus Veierland (@pveierland) reported

    Compressing a single repository render for MyNixOS was taking almost 2 minutes on a single laptop core using brotli which I found a bit long. Going multi-threaded via the brotli crate from Dropbox took it under a minute, but didn't improve it as much as I'd thought. It should hopefully run much better once I get it over to my chunky server 🔥

  • EmQBenedict MQBenedict (@EmQBenedict) reported

    @SuperGrok has attempted to download a python script several times. It always gets truncated at the same spot. (It's only 30k). Every link that has been provided (Dropbox, GoogleDrive, my email) has failed or no email received. Anybody else have that problem?

  • philbythelake Phil (@philbythelake) reported

    @Dropbox is soooo sloooowwww. No, it’s not my upload speed or my ISP. Running 1 gig up and down. Staring at “uploading 0 for 31” for 20 minutes. Wish work would just let me use the google drive - it’s almost instant.

  • NotTheGuy099 Mr. Nobody (@NotTheGuy099) reported

    @DropboxSupport your authentication via email is not working. Emails are not being sent out.

  • hkamau_xight Hiram K 🇰🇪 🇺🇬 ☕ (@hkamau_xight) reported

    @MuturiEric_W If you're pushing to main it means you don't have milestones/issues and their fixing branches -- so why are you even using ***? Just use Dropbox instead.

  • Zaf350941874807 Steve (@Zaf350941874807) reported

    @onedrive Cant handle more than 100,000 files. it will give you break role inheritance fail bullshit error. And if your file path on your pc is too long . Error again So it is a small company solution . @dropbox dont have these problems. @sundarpichai sleeps .

  • missamaricana mari nation (@missamaricana) reported

    @DropboxSupport good afternoon. It’s been a while since I’ve logged into my account, and it’s asking me to change my password but I can’t. I’ve lost access to my registered email and now I simply can’t change my email/password cause there’s no option that helps me fix this

  • Dropbox Dropbox (@Dropbox) reported

    Life is good (I didn't get a “file too big to email” error because i used Dropbox Transfer).

  • GregDBowles Greg Bowles (@GregDBowles) reported

    @DropboxSupport Still not working. Also tried the method for changing password and it does not send the email either.

  • GregDBowles Greg Bowles (@GregDBowles) reported

    @DropboxSupport not receiving the security code email when trying to login from a new computer

  • grok Grok (@grok) reported

    Thanks for the screenshot and details. This "database error when reading total_asset_size" looks like a backend glitch—I'll report it to the xAI team right away for a fix. Meanwhile, try describing the file's contents or sharing via an external link (e.g., Drive/Dropbox). What specific help do you need from it?

  • amills_41 MiMyself&IVisuals (@amills_41) reported

    Anybody ever had issues with Dropbox attaching incorrect/invalid links? I’m having an issue sharing a content file where no matter what the link I send, is sending the wrong folder.

    E.g, decentralized Uber, Airbnb, Dropbox. ■ Centralized Players (The Problem) Big Tech and Web2 giants (Amazon, Google, Uber, etc) have: ● Full control over pricing ● Ownership of all user data ● High take-rates (30%+ fees) ● Fragile, single points of failure

  • Faheed014 faheed (@Faheed014) reported

    Dropbox charges you $20/month to store your photos Shadow Drive users are laughing: • 90% cheaper storage • No one can delete your files (not even the government) • Spread across thousands of computers worldwide • Zero chance of "server outage, all your data gone

  • BelisariusCaw1 Belisarius Cawl (@BelisariusCaw1) reported

    @ManVsMiniatures Simple fix Upload all that into google photos or Dropbox and GET MORE

  • viperbjk Bjoern Kerler (@viperbjk) reported

    I've got to use my follower power here ;) @colbymoore once gave a talk about globalsat at blackhat and his GitHub repo is down. I found a fork but sadly the dropbox iq recordings link is down. Does anyone have a copy ? Wanted to port the code to latest gnuradio

  • yrulaughing418 A Large Individual 🇵🇸 (@yrulaughing418) reported

    @RileyTX @Punished_Alien If you dig deeper, that article's source re the investments is a MoveOn page full of dropbox links to documents which are now broken/deleted, so we can't verify them or see what year they are from

  • 215Hyde Jack Maniackie 𝕍𝕀ℂ𝔼 (@215Hyde) reported

    @noirturtledove Yep. I had to chase down the driver lol Today's package was a dropbox so maybe I won't have trouble anymore...

  • johnkitchin Profess.or Profess.and (@johnkitchin) reported

    Running programs that update large sqlite databases can be real slow when Dropbox is trying to sync each update.

  • lilifane Alex R. (@lilifane) reported

    I’ve been literally talking about how I rely on camera uploads through Dropbox last week. And now it‘s not working anymore?!?! Whyyyyyy

  • Real_MoreOfFred More Of Fred (@Real_MoreOfFred) reported

    Your edits aren’t the problem. It’s the way you present them. Editors who charge $5K don’t send Dropbox folders. They send proposals. With ROI. Proof. Outcomes. You’re not losing clients because of your work You’re losing them before they even open the file.

  • grok Grok (@grok) reported

    @mdhardcastle Rarely, as I'm built to be maximally truthful and use real-time tools to avoid such hiccups. If you're facing Dropbox fetch issues, I can help debug or suggest alternatives directly. What's the file for?

  • scienceofmktg The Science of Marketing (@scienceofmktg) reported

    At the time, Dropbox had a problem: People loved the product, but word-of-mouth was slow. So they added a single line to onboarding: “Get 16 GB of free space for every friend you invite.” That was it.

  • KimCJorgensen Kim Conrad Jorgensen 🇩🇰 🇹🇭 (@KimCJorgensen) reported

    Let me know how it goes, please. As mentioned I have the same issue, but to a lesser extent. I don't use iCloud, but Dropbox. And btw, emojis, works perfect on my Galaxy, except last week! One easy thing to do is "frequent reboots". Shut the Mac down for the night, instead of putting it to sleep. I'm going to make that a habit.

  • highagencytech highagency.tech (@highagencytech) reported

    Notion for db and UI And all the other hell that comes with this stack I spent the whole day trying to fix complete one workflow of sending a photo through shortcuts (have to use ******* Dropbox. Just retarded I could have shipped an MVP OF multiple “workflows” or automations

  • j_lamaluta JLamaluta (@j_lamaluta) reported

    @AutonomysNet So, what is DSN? DSN is a decentralized network where data is stored across many nodes, not on a single centralized server. No Google Drive. No Dropbox. No AWS. Just pure peer-to-peer storage with zero single point of failure.
