Dropbox Plus
21 TopicsAuto Backup on Windows 10
Hopefully this is the correct forum for this question. I am now a PLUS user. My Drop box has a local folder on my C: drive & a copy on the Drop box on-line so I can access my files from phone or tablet at any time & grant access to client of mine. My working files are on a sub folder on my C: drive & I just copied & pasted the folders to my Drop box using Windows 10 file explorer. Now I want to make the C: drive working folder(s) to automatically backup/sync to Drop box for others with a share link to get the latest files. Do I need to use Sync or Backup from the Web version of Drop box & how? I tried using the Fire Fox web browser, selecting the folder I want to automate but the Automate has no options to backup or sync.Solved374Views0likes5CommentsI have 2 accounts and want to use the email linked to the one on the second
I currently have 2 Dropbox accounts, one is the freebie and the other is Dropbox Plus. I want to remove the freebie account and just have Dropbox Plus. However, I want to assign my main email address to the Plus account, but its currently linked to the freebie account. How can I do this?163Views0likes1CommentExclude files by pattern from being removed locally by the file handler
Hi, I'm using the Zettlr "project" feature a lot. Project configuration is stored in ".ztr-directory" files, who need to stay available on the local file system. Thus I want to exclude them by pattern from being removed locally once and for all. Chat support right now stated that it can't be done. But excluding files by pattern, instead of browsing with finder through the filesystem and doing it by hand for every single one, is such a basic functionality, I just can't believe that it can't be done. Any suggestions? Mela266Views0likes1CommentDesktop app on Mac crashes when trying to link a second account
Hi I was using Dropbox Beta with the new cloud storage location in Ventura. I had both personal and business account on the desktop app. Things were working mostly ok, but I was having some issues with syncing, so I thought I should try leaving the beta. that's when all the problems started. After I left the beta, I could no longer add a second account to the desktop app. I tried adding the Personal account then adding the Business acount. I tried adding the Business account, then adding the Personal account. When I add the second account, Dropbox crashes and it doesn't login. So I went back to the beta to see if that made a difference and it hasn't. So now I'm stuck with only my Business account in the beta Is there anyway to fully reset Dropbox on the computer to fix this? thanks PaulSolved3.1KViews0likes27CommentsDropbox no longer linking to both business and personal accounts (Mac)
Hi all, I'm stuck in a loop here. Last week perhaps there was a Dropbox update (?) and now I can only have my personal Dropbox Plus account OR my business account linked to my machine. When I try to link the other, I go through a loop of: "Would you like to connect the computer XXX to your Dropbox account?" -> YES -> Dropbox app restarts -> Account is still not linked. I'm not using the new File Provider option yet. I've gone into my accounts and manually unlinked all my devices, and no luck. How do I get out of this loop? I'm on the Mac, Sonoma 14.3.1 Desktop App: v197.4.7571 Thank you very much! -Josh742Views0likes3CommentsPersonal account linked to wrong email address, after separating it from Business team
I had a personal account linked to email A. I was invited to a team from my work and I decided to keep both accounts separated, so when the option was given I choose to create a new account using email B, which is my work email. Now all my personal stuff is linked to the account of email B, instead of the other way around, and my email A is now linked to my job's team. I tried to abandon the team, but seems that only admins can remove someone from a team (!!). How can I solve this situation? This is critical, I have years of very important stuff in my personal account. My personal account was plus and the account from my organisation is business.673Views0likes4CommentsMerging Accounts
Hi I have two accounts. One is Personal Plus on my Mac. The other is Basic on my iPhone. I am out of storage on Basic and want simply to transfer all folders to my Personal Plus account (which I can access on all linked devices?). Can someone direct me to the procedure for doing this, please?Solved681Views0likes2CommentsTransfer Dropbox Backup to New Mac
I recently bought a new Mac and used the Apple Migration Assistant to transfer all of my data from my old machine to my new one. This included the Dropbox folder and everything else. The migration went smoothly (in the past I have had issues migrating the Dropbox folder) and now I have all of my files on my new machine exactly as they appeared before. I used Dropbox Backup on my old machine, and so the Music, Movies and Pictures folders are stored inside the hidden folder titled "Mac" in the main Dropbox folder, and their original location is replaced with an alias. I now would like to set up Dropbox Backup on my new machine to backup these folders exactly like it did on my old one. However, when I go into Dropbox preferences, it asks if I would like to backup my Mac and shows all of the unticked options for folders to backup. I was wondering what the best way to setup Dropbox Backup on my new computer would be? Do I have to delete the backup, move the folders back into their original location and create a new backup? Or is there a way of telling Dropbox that this machine should inherit the backup of my old machine? I am still currently in possession of my old machine so I can access things from there if necessary. I thought it would be best to wait and hear the correct way of doing this, since I have tried in the past to fix things very quickly myself making the situation worse, as I have seen other people with similar stories do.3.4KViews0likes25CommentsHow can I login to a different account on my computer?
I have two Dropbox accounts: a basic account which I accidentally created, and a plus where all my stuff is. I cannot get into it (except on my phone) because on my new computer automatically takes me to the basic and I see no way of getting to the plus account from there. Can you help?Solved639Views0likes1CommentDropbox account already connected to secondary email
I want to set up a secondary email address but it says that there's already a Dropbox account connected to that email. Some of my folders on Dropbox are shared to this email - do I have to go through and remove it from these before I can set it up as a secondary email?Solved1.9KViews0likes3Comments
