How to change order of subfolders within a folder?
How can I change the order of subfolders within a folder (on the Dropbox web app). I don't see any way to rearrange the order in which the folders appear. Many web apps allow one to simply drag drop to reorder folders. Can this be done in the web app, and if not, can it be done in the Mac app?
Generating hierarchical folder structure overview in Dropbox
Hello Dropbox Community, We are looking for a way to generate an overarching view of our folder structure in Dropbox. Specifically, we need an overview that shows how the folders are organized hierarchically. For example, the "Testing" folder contains several subfolders, each of which may have additional nested subfolders, and so on. Our goal is to obtain a report that illustrates how these folder structures are configured, without accessing or revealing the contents of the files themselves. Has anyone found a way to generate such an overview within Dropbox? If so, we would appreciate any guidance or suggestions on how to achieve this. Thanks in advance for your help!
I'm trying to download large folders from the web, but not all of them are downloaded.
I have a large folder full of (other smaller folders filled with) videos files that I am trying to download and store on an external harrd drive to have a backup of these videos. In total, it comes to ~7 Tb. I have tried downloading each of the smaller folders one at a time but this often results in not all of the videos files downloading. Does anyone know of a better way to do this? Thank you in advance!
Bring back the blue-folder folder thumbnails
Dropbox, please allow users to choose the plain blue folders for folder thumbnails. The photo-collage folder thumbnails introduced about 2 years ago are distracting and randomly irrelevant to folder content. At least make the blue-folder thumbnail an option. Thank you!
View prior contents of enclosing folders
I'm a novice in terms of using Dropbox for anything other than syncing my devices. So this question is probably a Dropbox 101 type. I'd like to view several folders at different points in history. Within the past 30 days. I thought I found the applicable help suggestion but it didn't work. Thanks for any help.
