dropbox

Hello. I have a huge Dropbox folder on my MacBook Pro. It's located in: Macintosh ID > Users > 'my user' > Dropbox > ..... Since this folder is not located in 'Documents' it's not synced to iCloud.com. I've seen that in iCloud.com I can select a specific file to upload but I cannot select a...

Can I confirm whether Dropbox supports "Touch ID" on Apple devices other than iPhones and iPads, specifically on MacBooks and iMacs?

On the spur of the moment, my family is doing business with an out-of-state office that needs to review some of our old records. Some of the files are scanned, multi-page documents that are too large to e-mail, and I want to share with them a pretty large amount of files, large and small. E-mail...

Hi have a Mac M1 (Ventura) which is my main development machine. I also have a Windows 11 desktop at home which I use as a backup and for all my windows dev. I am struggling to find a good fast cloud application (like iCloud or OneDrive) what works well on both platforms. I use iCloud for Mac...

I wonder if I should update Dropbox or switch to iCloud Drive. Here's my situation: I am still using macOS 12.5.1 and have not updated Dropbox yet (even though it has been pressuring me to do so for weeks). I use the free version of Dropbox exclusively as a simple folder in my home directory...

Just received my new MacBook air M2, and using the transfer assistant from older intel Macbook air. Everything fine - except Dropbox requires Rosetta to run. Does the earlier M1 adapted Dropbox release not run on M2 Macs? Really annoying, and only very little info to use. Dropbox forum suggests...

I am a web/software dev and I have always been in the habit of keeping everything in the cloud for the ease of having everything accessible on any device (phone, laptop, desktop and tablet) and for backup purposes (and sometimes reverting to an older version). I have used Dropbox in the past but...

I put Dropbox in the Login Items list under System Preferences > Users & Groups, but it does not remain their; it disappears between Shut Down and the next Log In, regardless of whether the 'Reopen windows ...' box it ticked on Shut Down, or not. Is there a solution?

While I looked around for the Dropbox for my G4 machines (Powerbook G4 1.5, MDD 2 x 1Ghz & Powermac G4 1.2Ghz), since @Czo had stopped updating his Dropbox magic, I found two alternatives that can sync what I type in my Powerpc realm to the current world of two-way aunthentication. 1. I use...

I just got a Mac Mini M1 and I have a Dropbox account. Is the Dropbox beta for Apple Silicone stable enough or should I use a 3rd party client like Maestral? I like to use Dropbox in online mode, keeping the files in the cloud until I need them. Does Maestral support this or does it just dump...

This is long and I'm confused how it all works. I'm using MacbookPro macOS Big Sur v11.4 I've had dropbox for quite a few years, just using it to share a few files with friends (but not syncing). Somehow a few weeks ago I must have responded to a Dropbox request for syncing and it's causing...

I need to send an iMovie video from my MacBookPro to my iPhone camera roll. I would like to do so without decreasing quality (sharpness/bluriness). I have tried to: 1) Save iMovie video and AirDrop it to my iPhone (got an error "Failed to save item. Save to iCloud Drive instead." 2) Save...

I try to rip everything out and reinstall, no go. Comes up on the menu bar and then blows. Invalid signing and entitlement. spctl is fine. Stapler finds the notarization valid. Not sure what is happening.

My Mid 2011 MacBook Air has 4GB or RAM. But this is squeezed by DropBox's current client, which is huge. Is there any older client still around. I do not want the fancy features, just sync in a small footprint.

Hi I'm looking at getting an ipad. But unsure which storage size I need. I use Dropbox for everything. and it's at about 50-60 GB now (on PC). I wonder.. How does the ipad handle dropbox files? Are they kept in the cloud until needed, like on a phone? If so, then what if I make a huge video...

I use Dropbox on all my Apple devices all the time. Now Dropbox want to charge a ridiculous £9.99 a month if you want to connect to more than three devices. Since I have a Macmini, MacBook Air, an iPad and an iPhone and I use Dropbox on all of them, it’s time to find a replacement. Any...

Beginning on about 2/19 all custom folder icons ( folders in DB )disappeared and reverted to default icons. I tried to recopy and paste but it didn't work. After much experimenting, I found this problem only occurs to folders in my Dropbox. That is if I create a folder on my desktop (not in...

Hi All! I have recently released a minimalist screenshot tool. Its main features are: - a simple interface designed specifically for quick annotations; - advanced integration with Google Drive and Dropbox; - ability to copy screenshots to the clipboard and paste them directly into Slack...

I guess this should be pretty easy... but I can’t get it to work. I would like to make a scan (with Notes or Office Lens) of an invoice that gets uploaded automatically to a certain Dropbox folder. (I got it to work with IFTTT but would like to delete as much foreign apps as possible on my...

SUMMARY/TLDR: Instead of exporting directly from Whatsapp to Dropbox via "Save to Dropbox", choose "Save to Files". This option should be available for those with iOS 11, and have added their Dropbox account to the build-in Files app. BORING BACKGROUND (skip this part if you want): It is easy...
