I've used prtsc to capture my screenshots for like years now but for some reason dropbox doesn't recognize it anymore. The settings in dropbox are correct and its not a hardware problem b/c I can still press prtsc and then ctrl+v into paint.Solved41KViews6likes37CommentsUpload a Photo Album from iPhone to Dropbox
How can you upload just one photo album to Dropbox from iPhone?I would like tojust get my Favorites album uploaded to Dropbox. Is there a way to either 1. select a whole album for upload or 2. easily select all photos in an album for upload? From what I have tried, it appears I can only select one photo at a time. I have 2,400 favorite photos I want to upload to Dropbox and selecting them one at a timeis not a task I am up for. And importing to my Mac first doesn't seem to be an option either... Image Capture doesn't show albums. iPhoto wants to import all photos first (and can't because there's not enough space on my computer). iTunes doesn't show albums because iCloud is on. I could download from iCloud but then the photos lose all the date/time metadata that I need. Would appreciate any help!

I have my iPhone set to capture HEIC, and Dropbox client set to Save HEIC Photos As JPG. If you take a "Portrait Mode" photo on the iPhone in HEIC, and have Dropbox convert this to JPG, the JPG is unviewable on a Mac running Sierra. Non "Portrait Mode" photos are viewable fine on Sierra, and Portrait Mode photos that can't be viewed on Sierra, can be viewed on High Sierra. NOTE: Portrait Mode is not the orientation of the phone, but a special mode that tries to create fake Bokeh by blurring the background through software.

When I do a screen recording using Dropbox Capture (v94.0.3), the resulting video skips and buffers upon playback. It's unwatchable. I have tried waiting for the full video to load before playing it - that does not help. I've uninstalled and reinstalled Dropbox Capture - that doesn't help. Cleared my cache too, that didn't fix it. I'm using Windows 11 on a PC, and other screen recording software does not do this (Loom, the native Microsoft screen record software, etc). The capture feature works just fine for still images so there is only a problem with screen recording. I've been using Dropbox Capture for a few months since it was in beta--this was not a problem about a month ago. Anyone have a solution?9.2KViews4likes47Commentsblank login screen with new installed dropbox on new installed macOS high sierra

Any idea how to solve this problem?Solved7.9KViews0likes12CommentsVery, very low video quality in DropBox Capture. Are there any settings to change that?
I just installed DropBox Capture and the video quality is absolutely terrible. It's like it was compressed down 100x, no text is readable and the audio is very choppy. I cannot find any quality or compression settings. Any idea what the deal is or how I fix it? In theory this is a very nice tool for me so I would like to get it working well.4.4KViews0likes9CommentsDropbox Capture paste into Outlook message creates attachments instead of being inserted in the body

Hi all, I've just recently tried to install Dropbox Capture to replace my Loom account, but after installing the app, I do not have the icon in my menu bar, and I cannot find how to record any videos with it. I'm on MacOS and I see the process running in the Activity Monitor, but no luck using the software. Any ideas what might be causing this? Thanks, Alex.Solved4KViews0likes13Comments
