12 TopicsHow can a Maui iOS app access files in the iPhone Dropbox app?
I have developed a dot maui app and I would like this app to access the files in the dropbox app on the iPhone. With dropbox installed you can mark files for use offline, and I would like my app to access these. Can someone tell me how to do this please. I have searched the web but can't find anything that directly helps276Views0likes5CommentsOtter.ai not importing audio files from Dropbox folder
I've been using third-party app Otter.ai connected to Dropbox for more than a year. Since yesterday, audio files from the folder Dropbox/Apps/Otter are not getting imported by Otter for auto-transcription. Dropbox is connected in Otter in Settings. No problem thereSolved2.1KViews0likes3CommentsDate format in signatures is different to settings
Hi, I have a Dropbox Professional plan. It comes with 3 signature requests/month. (Will be upgraded to Essentials plan in December). In our Dropbox settings, I have the date set to "DD/MM/YYYY". (Language is English-UK). This all works fine and is reflected everywhere as it should. I'm now trying to set up my first Signature request. When I drag the Date box (for the date someone signs) onto the document page, it is tagged as the format "MM/DD/YYYY". I cannot use this format. So my question is: Is this just a picture to represent a date (like a squiggle is for a signature), but not actually the format that will be used? or, If it is actually the format that will be used, how do I change it? Unfortunately I cannot test question 1 above as to how the date actually is displayed as I only have 3 signatures requests included until December and can't afford to waste them!Solved3.5KViews0likes5CommentsCan I make my large DropBox Picture Heirarchy into a monetized web page?
I have roughly 225,000 pictures, all organized into 20,000 keyword searchable folders and I would like to make this photo archive available for people to view and search. This photo archive is a comprehensive reference of antique fishing related collectibles and I believe it would be very useful for a significant number of people. I'd like to find a way to let people look through this archive by them paying a membership or access fee. I know upgrading to Pro gives me the right-click-disable feature which I will need to protect my content but I don't think I can use the "send link" feature because it can be easily copied and shared with people who haven't gone through the paywall. How can I securely monetize my picture archive? Thanks in advance for your help.749Views0likes2CommentsCC transcription not working for some files
I have a folder of 30 or so interviews. I wanted to use the "cc transcribe" feature to obtain a text version of the audio. I did that with success with some of the clips that showed cc was there and I could turn cc on or off. So leaving it on, I hit transcribe and got my transcription. But when I tried to do this with clips with different labels the "cc" was suddenly unavailable and I could not transcribe. Does anyone know why this is. All the clips were uploaded from the same computer and came from the same camera. Need help. Can cc be added to clips or is the labeling wrong or is there a setting that needs to change? Help and feedback would be appreciated! Thank you.

After a fresh install of my MacBook Air, running latest macOS and Dropbox app I noticed I wasn't able to install apps with a .pkg installer. No matter what I tried, I always ended up with an error... After hours of searching the web, I ended up on this post:https://discussions.apple.com/thread/254600885?login=true&page=1 The offered solution of moving the PKG to the Desktop folder didn't work for me, but then I realised that my Desktop folder is also marked to be backed up by Dropbox... after I moved the .pkg installer to a place outside of the reach of Dropbox back up it let me finally install it... I didn't liked the idea of moving my backup folders to a secret place and replacing them with shortcuts, and it disabled to ability to receive AirDrop files, but now it also doesn't allow using .pkg installers from the download folder, I really don't like it! Can you fix both AirDrop and the ability to install .pkg directly from the download folder again? Thanks!1.1KViews1like4CommentsDropbox Invoice - End of Life?
Hi Dropbox, On June 5th I received the attached e-mail below. Naturally I prepared for the closure date, but after looking, it appears Dropbox Invoice is still online and fully functional? I would love to continue using DB Invoice if there's been a change, but please help me make sense of the e-mail vs. what's actually happening. Thank you!1.1KViews1like2CommentsSalesforce Visualforce Page Modifications for Related Records

Hello everyone! My name is Victor, I am newer here. I have an storage on Google Drive that keeps 2 TB of files approximately. I would like to know how do I transfer these files once from Google Drive to Dropbox, considering the Google Drive upload limitation (750GB per day) and without visibility of folders and file sizes becuase they are all large (so nor Google and Dropbox provides this information).Am I wrong on thinking that Google Drive can limit the transfer rate? How do I transfer these files without losing any file? Is there some developed solution(programming) to workaround that?1.3KViews0likes4CommentsHow to Get a Crypto Address and a Video in one file?
Hi Guys / Gals We are setting up a small media company. Where 100s different people will send their videos on specific questions we ask,and they will be paid if we use their videos on our channel. Sort of similar to the programme "you have been framed", but this is all online. We were considering paying through crypto as it will be convenient, probably Doge. I understand that we can get the videos through our website, if we copy paste the file request link. But is it possible to get an crypto address from them somehow as well in one file or maybe instead of their email they write the address (dropbox says wrong email format). The only other way I see possible is if people send 2 files, video and a notepad file with address on. Any other way? Thanks for your help!1.8KViews1like4Comments
