Hi there, I uploaded my video onto Dropbox and wanted to use the Auto Transcript tool. I noted that some parts of my transcripts became Malay, even though I would like the transcript to be fully English. How do I resolve this?453Views0likes4CommentsHow Do I Prevent Dropbox Paper from Converting Plain Text URLs into Hyperlinks?
Hi Everyone: I was using a different file hosting service. However, I experienced recurring issues and decided to try Dropbox. That service also has document-editing functionality which allowed me to create and edit documents online. I copied the text content from those online documents and pasted into new Dropbox Paper documents. However, I noticed that Dropbox converted my plain text URLs into hyperlinks which shows previews of those webpages directly in my document. I was trying to convert those hyperlinks back to plain text URLs but am not able to do so. Each time I click the link it loads the webpage in a new browser tab but I do not want this to happen. I know that in Word, you can remove hyperlinks to prevent them from being clickable links and instead keep them as text. How can I fix this in Dropbox Paper? How can I prevent Dropbox Paper from converting my text URLS into hyperlinks with webpage previews in the future? I prefer to keep them as text links so that I can copy or download the content to use in my other documents. Thank you.Solved2.8KViews0likes7CommentsUnable to Edit Excel file through mobile Dropbox, it throws an error.
I installed dropbox app in my phone to edit my excel file on the go. When i am opening my excel file on dropbox using open with excel feature, it redirects me to excel web app. Once i sign in to excel app, it throws an error “ Dropbox's request does not comply with Google's "Use secure browsers" policy. If this app has a website, you can open a web browser and try signing in from there.” Error 403: disallowed_useragent1.2KViews0likes10CommentsPotential indexing issue dropbox
Hello, I am currently unable to manipulate images downloaded from my dropbox without there being an error, either reading as "java.lang.ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException: 0" or "cannot invoke "java.awt.image.BufferedImage.getWidth()" because "imgInput" is null" once I place the manipulated images into our image software (qupath). I am the only person who is unable to manipulate the images, other members of my team have been able to without issue but I cannot rely on them to process the images for me. I have tried uninstalling the dropbox app on my Mac, but I have also not been able to manipulate images downloaded from dropbox online; I get the same errors. So I am unsure what is wrong with my account. Any thoughts?592Views0likes5CommentsTxt files now open in preview mode instead of the Dropbox Text Editor directly
My files are created as plain .txt files. In the past they would open directly with the Dropbox Text Editor as I had selected the Dropbox Text Editor as the default in the phone app. Now the files only show preview mode! Now must select the EDIT icon to edit them – using the Dropbox Text Editor. This occurred after my app updated to version 322.2.2. I have one device with version 320.2 – it still works as it should. Having Preview Mode open files 1st is a PITA! Might be ok for people that rarely edit the files. But I edit them dozens of a day – major annoyance! Dropbox preview mode - bug made out to be a “Feature”. Fix it!! Don’t need or want the bloatware nor the added “Features” that make an app more cumbersome to use. Not to mention resource hogs. Yes, I've noticed Dropbox taking more resources with every "update" How many apps & software that have tired this before and are now extinct? I now must find an alternative to Dropbox, then drop my subscription. Wow thanks - not.9.6KViews7likes25CommentsComments box bug: not showing comments, and disappearing.
Hi all, As recently as January 2024, the comment box when scrolling through documents has become really buggy, with the box disappearing, and entire comments disappearing. This is really concerning for teams that use uploaded scanned documents like receipts for accounting and tagging them for Xero. Any idea what's going on here? Happening for all users, all shared, all notifications are on.1.6KViews1like8CommentsCan I open and edit .pages files via the Dropbox app on my iPad Air 2?
Hi guys. I have dropbox installed on my ipad air 2. I would like to be able to edit a "pages" file on my ipad and have it automatically sync with my dropbox online and on my macbook. However, I can't find anyway to open a file in pages from dropbox on my ipad, or download and open. Does anybody know how I can do this? Thanks11KViews0likes9CommentsDropbox can highlight all links in Markdown files in desktop and mobile app.
It would be really nice if Dropbox can hightligh all links in Markdown files in desktop and mobile app, or better fully support Github flavor of Markdown format. It's very convient to store a personal knowledge base in Dropbox and sync across the device. Desktop399Views0likes1Comment
