Is Dropbox down today?
It was working fine and now my homepage won't load. Every time I go to click into the file it keeps saying, "something is wrong" and not opening/
Not good when I have a dissertation due next week!!!
Thanks all for the reports and feedback. We should be back online now.
@Manuel - is your computer offline or Dropbox only? Is it accessible from another network? 3g/4g on your mobile device for instance?

I'm from Italy and I have Dropbox installed on my PC, but it doesn't work (does not syncronize). I've tried to uninstall and install again the programme, at first it downloaded the whole folder on the PC, syncronized everything but now does not work again.

Thanks for the feedback guys.
@Anna / Gretchen - these seems to be different issues. Would you mind opening a new thread on that?

Yes, I've been experiencing the same problems for couple of days now. I cannot access my Dropbox and at the rare occasions it is back it misbehaves. No way I can delete anything at all not to mention deleting files and folders permanently. Besides anyone have heard any sensible explanation form Dropbox anyway? The struggle makes me think about Dropbox credibility as a the service provider. Hopefully the nightmare will be over sooner rather than later.

I am disgusted!!! Why pay for a TB of storage if nothing with sync for 1 week? or more?

Here in Colorado it appears that Dropbox is back up, however most of the functionality is absent. I can no longer delete any files, and downloading is taking several tries to accomplish. I also noticed that I now need to input a "bot prevention" code when attempting to log into the site. Clearly, Dropbox is still having some serious issues, at least here in Colorado!!

I thought it was just me. I have 15,000 files to straighten out.
