  • Noreyabner Norelis (@Noreyabner) reported

    @shktula @DropboxSupport I suggest you text @tonyhancock to get your account fix now

  • cpltalk (((cpltalk))) (@cpltalk) reported

    Turns out the reason for @dropbox's "can't move" is that the file names are identical. Any chance that the fact could use that for producing a meaningful error message? I'd think that's covered in Programming 101.

    @SpeakSamuel @USAndIndia We all are non-immigrants coming to work, we pay our fair share of fees, dropbox system has been broken down, due to huge #GCbacklogs same fees in other countries the waitimes have come down for others this year but not for India @USAndIndia takes no action.

    Any last sales before I go to sleep I’ll drop my Dropbox down to 20$ for the next two buyers #buyingcontent

  • prodbyphilthy philthy (@prodbyphilthy) reported

    @DropboxSupport i have the most recent version of the app and i’m running ios 15.3. it happens with all .wav and .mp3 files. The next button also doesn’t work when you’re outside of the app, if you click the arrows nothing happens. it’s very frustrating, and it’s not just me having this issue

  • keelungking KLK (@keelungking) reported

    @DropboxSupport Hi, hope u can solve my problem😭😭😭 I use desktop app of MacOS, and recently I found it keep deleting my files which were stored in Dropbox automatically!!! Unfortunately, I already empty my Trash several times...I didn't check the files and just empty it...

  • Sexyhannah7 Sexy_hannah (@Sexyhannah7) reported

    **** i’m so horny who's down to buy nudes Dropbox videocall dm me.! #wet #sellingcontent #buyingcontent

  • drjulie_b Dr Julie Blommaert (@drjulie_b) reported

    Well after some troubleshooting, my machine seems to have misplaced the directory I was working in but it is still on dropbox, but there seems to be no way to make them resolve this between each other I think this is next-week Julie's problem

  • jmarshallnz Jonathan Marshall (@jmarshallnz) reported

    @drjulie_b @EmRstats It's a windows only problem, yeah. I don't think it's necessarily storing in Dropbox, it's that the Dropbox folder is possibly in "Documents" or similar, which is possibly mapped to a network drive?

  • gapingmaws Videosyncrasy (@gapingmaws) reported

    I used to have thousands of tumblr drafts, because it was more convenient than using google or a dropbox for transferring images between devices, but then someone pointed out i can just make my own discord server

  • Vivian_M_Astro Vivian Miranda (@Vivian_M_Astro) reported

    Having a server is awesome (1) I don't want students paying for dropbox (it is expensive). So now I have self-hosted owncloud (open source version of dropbox) (2) Slack free has a vanishing message (bad!). so now I have a self-hosted open-source version "mattermost".

  • Rocqui_Balboa Bayou some Business (@Rocqui_Balboa) reported

    @ReignOfApril You’re supposed to be able to; however, I’ve had an issue. I’d delete it from my phone and then it’s deleted from the cloud once I backup. I ended up downloading the Dropbox app, and saving all of my photos there as a back up.

  • CaspioStatus Caspio Status (@CaspioStatus) reported

    Scheduled maintenance for Dropbox task connections: Between Tuesday, May 3, 2022 5:00 AM and Wednesday, May 4, 2022 8:00 PM PDT (UTC-7). Account login and apps will not be affected, but Dropbox re-authorization will be required following the maintenance.

  • BrianBurnbomb Brian Birnbaum (@BrianBurnbomb) reported

    @RawBooty2 @BojanYVR Again, it won’t stop long term performance. Take Dropbox for example. At some point they’ll own half the float and/or issue a 50% dividend in a few years if people don’t start bidding up the stock. But for the short term, it’s frustrating to say the least.

  • drjulie_b Dr Julie Blommaert (@drjulie_b) reported

    @jmarshallnz My rmd file is in a local Dropbox folder, is that likely to cause my problems?

  • Redveee ⚫ Redvee (@Redveee) reported

    @gfaz81 Think there's a recovery mode, or that might be Dropbox. Google should help find a solution to their problem.

  • insertdisktwo Insert Disk Two (@insertdisktwo) reported

    @DarthChillash Well yes of all you need something simple like browsing it does the job. But for example, I had issues with trying to install Dropbox on it, whichever distro I try, it wouldn't work. And it shouldn't be rocket science :)

  • Heijningen Heijningen (@Heijningen) reported

    @DropboxSupport Done, same issue, i have the 3TB plan

  • Angelba01031927 Angel baby (@Angelba01031927) reported

    Any last minute buyers I’ll drop my Dropbox down to 20$ for the next two people I’m about to fall asleep #sellingcontent #buyingcontent #nsfwtwt

  • RaquaoRoheline Scrimblo Simp ⬛🌫⬜🟪🔞 (@RaquaoRoheline) reported

    @LipidLounger People usually use a file hosting service like google drive or dropbox You could also upload the image to a private discord server/channel too and link the image url

  • zentree Luis Apiolaza ∫🍃dx =🌳 (@zentree) reported

    @jmarshallnz @drjulie_b We had the same problem with students working in some of the university's network drives. Personally, I've never had it in Dropbox.

  • omarg Omar L. Gallaga (@omarg) reported

    @hhavrilesky Has a million ways to export the audio including web server/Wifi download, send to SMS, Dropbox, iCloud, FTP and you can edit/trim/fix the audio in-app, name the file, add tags, etc.. It pretty much does it all.

  • jmarshallnz Jonathan Marshall (@jmarshallnz) reported

    @zentree @drjulie_b Yeah, it happens if Dropbox happens to be in Documents, which is then on a roaming profile. Been happening at Massey for 4-5 years now, and I've updated/troubleshooted pandoc for that time, but all their fixes still leave it broken.

  • rikimae RikitheCanuckistani (@rikimae) reported

    @SocialSciNerd my school had a Dropbox type system to upload assignments to. The majority of instructors preferred it that way. MS 365 was offered free to all students, so it wasn't a problem to type it up in Word, then upload

  • CasterRaster RasterCaster (@CasterRaster) reported

    @HAWTToys While parents get put on a FBI watchlist for just having issue with a school board, guys like these go ignored. I bet his laptop would make ICAC throw alarms if he synced to Dropbox.

  • 22Mooskugeln 🍀;𝑣𝑖𝑖 (@22Mooskugeln) reported

    I’ve been considering to re-purchase Scrivener for several days now. (I used to refund a few years ago). It’s the best app ever for my writing method, but I purely DETEST Dropbox sync (as it’s slow) and macOS/iOS silly separation…

  • JamieSerafi Jamie Serafi (@JamieSerafi) reported

    @Dropbox Hi guys is there any update on the ETA of the fix for OS? THANKS

  • DropboxSupport Dropbox Support (@DropboxSupport) reported

    @prodbyphilthy Have you had the chance to clear your Dropbox app cache, uninstall, reboot and then reinstall the Dropbox app, just to see if the issue persists?

  • rrr00bb Derp State Globalist (@rrr00bb) reported

    @InfiniDream1 When I say "robust": I mean far more robust than Java code. Long-lived processes use few resources. I am supporting a program whose code hasn't been edited in years, and all devs left. It never goes down; even though it's complicated. (Like a DropBox)

  • Peterveter13 Peter13 (@Peterveter13) reported

    @run4gear @MauroQueiros It is not possible z o connect to runalyze error whe accessing. Also not to dropbox, can not enter numbers.
