Here’s how to use: Simply upload your video to Dropbox and voila! Your videos will have auto-generated transcripts and closed captioning at your disposal with a click of a button. Even more so - watch videos shared from your colleagues - and copy transcribed segments to instantly quote them in a presentation. Tell me about your experience with our new features! We are all ears. Help Center Article URL:https://help.dropbox.com/view-edit/transcript-closed-captions
Mac OS Sequoia is arriving. Is DropBox ready?
Hi everyone,who remembers the chaos that happened last year with the Mac OS Sonoma update and all the issues we had with DropBox? There was a particular version that caused syncing to go haywire. I remember it all too well, as it took us almost a month to figure out how to fix the problem. What will happen with Mac OS Sequoia? I admit, I'm quite anxious and would appreciate some reassurance from the DropBox team. Thanks.How to get started with Selective Sync
