Dropbox transfer is not showing in menu
The option to create a transfer has disappeared both on my desktop and on dropbox online. I confirm that I do not have syncing issues, app is running on my computer and "early release" under setting is "off". The "create transfer" option comes and goes, it is incredibly frustrating. Now it is gone from both desktop (right click) and dropbox.com. Screenshots attached. Please help me solve this problem once and for all. PPlease help.
Migrating from Mac to Mac using Migration Tool
Greetings, MacBook Pro (old machine): OS 12.6.5 MacBook Air (new machine): OS 13.3.1 1. I have been using Dropbox to backup my files on my MacBook Pro, all my files are online and only the ones I use is made available offline 2. I used "Migrant Assistant" to migrate to a new MacBook Air, so the folders & files in Documents, Downloads, Desktop are seen on my new Mac. 3. I am unable to setup Dropbox on my new MacBook Air. I get the error from Dropbox App which says "cannot setup the folders" (Desktop, Downloads, Documents) For eg it is asking me to move "Move Desktop folder to its original location, then try again" 4. When I click on the Dropbox icon on the toolbar, it says "Upgrade to the latest version of dropbox", but I had downloaded the app just then on MacBook air. I don't know what to do. Please advise. regards, Mahesh
How does Transfer actually work - do the files get uploaded twice or just referenced from my "cloud"
It seems DropBox Help don't know the answer to here's the puzzle. I'm trying to share about 750Mb of property photos with an estate agent, but I have a really slow upload speed, 0.5Mbit/s. They do NOT have DropBox, so I need to use "Transfer" not shared folder. So, the folder of photos has been syncing for an hour with DropBox, (just a standard sync, not a Transfer) and probably has at least 2 hrs TO GO . So, if the files are uploading, and have been for an hour, but probably another two hours to go, there are three possible routes... 1. If DropBox Transfer is clever, it will use the uploaded files that have already been uploading for 1 hr, plus another 2 hrs TO GO. 2. if DropBox its not so clever, and required me to upload again from my Mac, then I should stop the standard DropBox sync, and just start a 3-hour transfer. That is one our wasted, so it's going to take 1hr (already gone) + another 3 Hrs TO GO to complete a "Transfer specific" upload. 3. Worst case is if I imagine it is behaving as in 1, so that takes 1 hr gone + 2 hrs more, then I find it behaves as in 2, so another 3 hrs, so 6 total and 5 hrs TO GO. So, that's why I'm asking how the DropBox Transfer sytem works, not which button to press or how to speed up my broadband, sadly DropBox Support don't seem to know. Does that make sense? And if it makes sense, does anyone on this forum know? In 6 hours time I will know myself, but wondered if someone could cut that to 2hrs for me. Thanks Stephen
