132 TopicsEditing PDFs in Dropbox from my iPad
I'm trying to edit/markup PDFs that I have stored in Dropbox from my iPad. I'm using an Apple Pencil that's capable of "markup." The adobe integration was meant to be the answer for this; however, Adobe is now charging extra for the ability to edit. Apple allows you to edit Dropbox PDFs nicely through files; however, this seems to be hit or miss as sometimes the files won't open or get re-directed to Dropbox. Are there other ways to edit PDFs from the iPad and have it sync with Dropbox? This would seem like it should be a top priority for an added feature. OneDrive, for example, has the functionality built directly into their app. Any help would be much appreciated.Solved38KViews9likes12CommentsiOS Files App Favorites Folder Disappear

When I try to add an attachment from dropbox to a mail in gmail, I receive a message in gmail "can not upload the file". This error occurs only on one smartphone with android 12. If I do the same , with the same dropbox and google account, on an other android phone (android 11 )or an android tablet, there is no problem. Both phones have the same app version of gmailSolved46KViews5likes257CommentsPDF files open as read only on Acrobat Reader (on Android)
I haven't had any problem editing PDF files on my Android tablet until now. I simply opened dropbox, and opened the PDF in Adobe Acrobat from dropbox. Lately, when I open a PDF in Adobe Acrobat from dropbox, I get an error message telling me I can only open the file read-only. This applies to all my files. When I open a PDF directly from Adobe Acrobat, I don't have this problem. I suspect this is related to a recent update of either app.Solved28KViews5likes40CommentsDropbox unstable in iPad OS Files App.
The problem I have is that Dropbox seems to crash when running on an iPAD via the apple files app. If I open an application that uses the files app, such as Pages or Final Draft, when saving to the Dropbox via the files app, it crashes the app and for the next 4 to 5 minutes if I click on drop box via the files app it just doesn’t load. Apple has confirmed this is a Dropbox issue (I raised it with them first), and I have not been able to crash the application(s) using Google Drive via files in the same way. Can anyone help?Solved18KViews4likes155CommentsSelect an image for Dropbox Password Icon
Please, I would like to be able to select an image to my passwords instead of the name initials (similar like Authy), or just use a default image from the meta icon of the website. It looks ugly some passwords with image and the rest with initials, a bit inconsistent. Thank you for supporting ❤️Solved1.4KViews3likes1CommentCan I preview a plain text file which extension is not supported by Dropbox?
Hi, I'm using Dropbox on my PC and iPhone, and storing some Emacs Org-mode files. These files have ".org" extension (e.g. "memo.org"), but its contents is just a plain text file. Only the difference is extension. Previously I could preview ".org" files on my iPhone directly, but now, I can't preview and recieve the error message "This file can't be previewed". Is there any way to preview a plain text file which extension is not supported by Dropbox?Solved3.8KViews3likes7CommentsDownload a Folder to Android
This is SO frustrating. I have a real need to download entire folders to my android device. For some years I have used the FILE DOWNLOADER FOR DROPBOX from Play Store. I had to reset my android device and now I find the app is no longer available. No other third party apps seem to do this. So anyone know whether I can do this from Dropbox these days (without accessing dropbox .com) or of a third party app?30KViews3likes13Comments
