How do YOU access Dropbox?
Hi Dropbox community - I'm a design researcher here at Dropbox. I'm curious about how you access Dropbox! How do you access Dropbox: the website,the desktop app (for mac/windows), and/or the mobile app (iOS, android)? For those you use, why do you use them? For those you don't, why not? Is there anything you wish you could do on one that you can't today? Why?9.5KViews6likes11Comments
how to move a backup to regular dropbox?
so... by mistake i uploaded about 600gb of footage as a backup of my camera's card instead of as a normal dropbox folder. it took 2 days to complete. but now it's finished and i've realised it's not shareable... how do i move the backup to my normal dropbox folders so i can share with my client from there? seems stupid to re-upload (and to have to wait two more days!)Solved2KViews2likes3Comments
Dropbox Back-up - (not Beta) on Mac
Having experimented with Dropbox back-up, I have disabled the sync. Q1: it has re-organised my arrangement of folders and files so nowI have to waste time correcting the interference. Is there any way to avoid that happening? Q2:According to Dropbox, any file I dlete on Dropbox will be deleted on my Mac. That's back to front: it really should be any files or content I delete or change on my Mac shouls be deleted / changed in Dropboax. Is there any way to reverse? Q3 I use previously saved word processor files as templates for the next letter. Opening a letter after trialling back-up, I am told I cannot use it but must make a duplicate. That in itself is a nuisance, but think on: if i have to duplicate every file then it wont't take long before I have used up all the storage space on my computer and on Dropbox. Is there a way around tthat? Q4: Athough i stopped the back-up, it has continued so how do i delete the files it has back-up without them being deleted on my computer; do I need to download fthem from D-Back up?Solved2KViews1like9Comments
Recovering deleted files (older than 30 days)
I have a Dropbox Basic plan - and to date, I've only been on that plan. I deleted files more than 30 days ago (but less than 180 days ago), which means they aren't available for me to recover. With the Dropbox Professional plan (and similar plans), I'm able to recover files that were deleted up to 180 days ago. Does that mean that if I now upgraded to one of those plans, I would be able to recover those files I deleted between 30 and 180 days ago? Or would I have had to already been on one of those plans before I deleted the files, in order to be able to now recover them?Solved9KViews1like18Comments
