Is there a fix if my Dropbox file download keeps failing?
Every time I try to download a file I get a failed status in Chrome or Safari. When I download in Firefox it fails, however Firefox allows me to "restart" the download and it begins again where it left off... so I can complete the download by repeating this as many times as necessary per file. Very annoying. For a larger file (say 4 GB) I had to do this "restart" in Firefox 4-5 times before the file reached the end of the download and completed successfully. I see this is an on-going issue for Dropbox for several years - is there an indication as to waht is causing this? Going to have to ditch the service altogether if there is no real fix.

Why can't I download files and folders from Dropbox to my computer?
I am new! this system as presently experienced is worthless ---so it can't be right? Can't download any folder or file unless through email 1)don't you have simple step by step instructions to download entire folder or pic without going through email 2)once email pic is received, there is no way to down load it --only drag to desktop giving an unacceptable file of 160kb per pic where do i find instructions?Solved109KViews5likes46CommentsCan't download files: "Failed - Network Error"
Hello, I've been having trouble to download some files from my dropbox account. I click to download the file, it starts, but then it sops, saying it Failed - Network error. Is there anybody here having the same problem? How can I fix it? I had this problem with multiple files, with different sizes (from 2GB to 7GB) and mine is a Pro Account (1TB total capacity). Thanks anyways!Solved77KViews0likes7CommentsHow can I view my photos like a gallery?
There used to be a feature to view your pictures in gallery. What happened to that? I can't find it anymore :(.

Error downloading folder through web client
I'm trying to download a large folder through the web client. After I click download I'm prompted to save a small file called unspecified.htm, which saves and then nothing else happens. I'm sure I've used this feature successfully before. Any idea what's happening? I've tried both download methods - click the folder and click download at the top, and right click. I can download individual files successfully. Tried Mozilla Firefox & Chrome,Windows 10.Solved59KViews19likes103Comments
