Not good when I have a dissertation due next we...
Thanks all for the reports and feedback. We should be back online now.
@Manuel - is your computer offline or Dropbox only? Is it accessible from another network? 3g/4g on your mobile device for instance?
John G. You're absolutely right. But after recently acquiring the MS Office 365 software, I was introduced to another cloud service that can be accessed through any browser, through any app across multiple platforms (I own an iPhone 6 Plus) and it's called OneDrive. No, I am not an MS employee trying to push an advertisement in a Dropbox forum. I am just telling other users that there are other options out there, and I have been successful with this other option.
But to your point, external/portable hard drives, and even large flash drives which are now much more cost effective (example, PNY's 256gb flash drive for $80 on Amazon) are definitely something someone should always have for these "just in case". NEVER just have your stuff in the clouds. Hard drives may fail, flash drives may break, but Clouds can also blow away in the wind just as easy (sorry, too easy to ignore saying this :) ).
