Can't open some files after syncing all, please help!
Hello everyone, I am new to Dropbox and currently using the 30 days free trial.
I am a windows user and have a shared folder with a mac user, after syncing all the files in the folder, some of them won't open whenever I try to, and would show up as 0 bytes when I check their properties. Anyone knows how to fix this?
Thanks a lot 🙂
Yes it will be at the bottom 🙂
And it isnt possible to set all as offline I'm afraid. You can do it manually by highlighting and selecting but you may need to keep redoing it

You need to set them to available offline first 🙂 Oh and make sure you have the software on your device to open them.
Sometimes Windows will auto try and download files and then open them if they are online only, but, if not you can manually do it using above - note that Dropbox will need to be running to do this.
Hey, thanks a lot for replying, correct me if I'm wrong, but if I see dropbox on the bottom right that means It's running? if so, how do I make all of my files as available offline?
Thank you very much 🙂
