Dropbox backup keeps giving me an error that there are too many zip files when I u to download my root folder. It is a backup of an external hdd which was physically damaged. Since I cannot download the root with the web ui, could I use synology or another app to download the entire Dropbox backup folder with an app instead of a web browser?728Views0likes5CommentsTricks for exporting file names to an Excel spreadsheet as index.
I have tried Zappier and other automations for exporting folders, subfolders, and even the files names to an excel spreadsheet to create an index or guide, even with the link for an easier access. Can anyone share a way to do such export or copy paste hack?571Views0likes3CommentsExploring Seamless Data Management: Integrating Dropbox with RackSwitch Systems
Hello Dropbox Community, I'm eager to dive into a discussion about integrating Dropbox with rackswitch systems to streamline data management processes. As organizations increasingly rely on cloud storage solutions like Dropbox for collaboration and file sharing, the role of robust network infrastructure, such as rackswitches, becomes crucial in optimizing performance and security. Has anyone here successfully integrated Dropbox with rackswitches in their infrastructure? I'm particularly interested in hearing about your experiences, challenges faced, and the benefits realized from this integration. Specifically, how has it impacted data transfer speeds, reliability, and overall user experience? From optimizing network bandwidth to ensuring data integrity and security, integrating rackswitches with Dropbox can potentially offer significant advantages. I'm curious to learn about any best practices or configurations that have worked well for your setup. Let's share insights and explore how this integration can enhance our Dropbox deployments. Looking forward to your thoughts and experiences!1.5KViews0likes1CommentYou can back your WordPress website or blog with Dropbox
I'm a blogger, and I just recently started posting a lot of content on my blog. I've had bad experiences with WordPress relating to loss of data. Most times there used to be an error with WordPress updates, bad plugins, etc. So I installed a plugin on my WordPress dashboard that was supposed to help me backup my WordPress site. I was surprised to see an option that helped me back up my site to Dropbox automatically, even if I lost my data on WordPress, I could easily retrieve it from Dropbox😊3.2KViews1like5CommentsArch Linux Dropbox Gnome app indicator drop down menu
I use Arch Linux as well as many other Linux flavors. Often on Arch with Gnome desktop I had trouble getting the Dropbox drop down menu to look and perform properly. I searched the Internet but really found nothing addressing my problem. I actually gave up on it for a few months. While trying to correct another problem with the app indicator panel I installedlibappindicator-gtk3. It solved the other problem I was working on but I got an added bonus in that the Dropbox drop down menu suddenly started working perfectly as it does on Linux Mint Cinnamon, Debian Gnome and MX Linux Xfce. So just a tip if the Dropbox drop down menu is not performing properly on Arch Linux Gnome, try installinglibappindicator-gtk3 from the Arch repositories. It is in the Arch official extra repository. I think it's possible that this solution could also help on any Arch based distro such as Manjaro,EndeavourOS, etc. if the Dropbox drop down menu doesn't look or perform correctly. I also had the same problem on Fedora Gnome but I don't currently have a free test partition to try this with Fedora.2.2KViews0likes2CommentsUsing the Dropbox & HelloSign integration
Making sure your tools are all connected and working as well as they can be is key to a good workflow. First of all, is HelloSign included with Dropbox? Yes! So let’s look at how you can connect Dropbox and HelloSign to get the most out of both. Connect Dropbox and HelloSign When you send for a signature through Dropbox, you’ll be prompted to connect your Dropbox and HelloSign accounts and accept the terms of service. If you don’t already have a HelloSign account, a free account will be created with the email address you use for Dropbox. If you already have a HelloSign account with the same email address as your Dropbox account, the accounts will be connected. After your accounts are connected, you’ll also be able to sign in to HelloSign.com by clicking Sign in with Dropbox. What can I do with HelloSign and Dropbox? Once you’re all connected, you can start sharing files for people to sign. You can read all about how to do that right over here. You can also learn how to cancel a signature request, and how to sign a document yourself. Once your signed files are complete, you and all signers will receive email confirmations. Your signed files automatically save to your Dropbox account, in the location you chose for that file and in your connected HelloSign account. If you delete a signed file from either Dropbox or HelloSign, it’ll still be saved on the other platform, so you always have a back up copy. If you delete the file from both, then it cannot be retrieved. What if someone hasn’t signed their form yet? Don’t worry, you don’t have to wait until someone signs a document to have it saved to your Dropbox account. While a file is waiting to get signed, an in-progress PDF version of the file is saved in the location in your Dropbox account you chose named “[file name] (in-progress).pdf”. Once the file is signed, that file is replaced with a new, signed PDF file named “[file name] (signed).pdf”. Start to finish, you have a record and a copy in your Dropbox account too. What else should I know about the HelloSign and Dropbox integration? If the HelloSign account you connected to Dropbox is on the limited free plan (which is the default plan), you can make three document transactions per month. You can track and manage your HelloSign signature requests directly from Dropbox. To get started, sign in to the HelloSign for Dropbox dashboard and: Find the file(s) you need by using the Search bar at the top. Click the Request signature button to request a signature. You’ll also get Dropbox and email notifications as your requests progress. Signed files take up space in your Dropbox account. If you run out of space in your Dropbox account while a file is in progress (waiting on a signature), you’ll see an error message and the signed version of the file will only save on HelloSign.com and not in Dropbox. Have you connected your Dropbox and HelloSign accounts yet? Tell us how you use HelloSign in the comments below!3.1KViews0likes2CommentsSave a chrome bookmarks directly into Dropbox folders from Chrome
Hello. I access content in two main ways: 1) I save googledoc documents in my chrome browser within bookmarked folders 2) I save files within dropbox within folders This gets problematic because there are two different locations for my content that relate to the same thing. As an example, I'll save a contract draft that I created as a gdoc in a bookmarked folder. When it is signed, I'll create a pdf and save it into Dropbox. But now two related files are in different locations. Is there a way to create a folder within the Chrome Bookmark bar that saves bookmarks directly into the dropbox folder? This way I can have all documents in the same place. Thank you.1.6KViews0likes1Comment
