Good video but one question. How come when i send a link from my iPad in Dropbox my clients get an error message saying they can’t download it. Indefinitely don’t want my clients being forced to sign up for Drop Box high appears to the case. I have don’t something wrong I believe
So helpful, just got this as a Christmas Gift from my husband, this video was super helpful, thank you! Very well made! Looking forward to learning more from you!
I'll be having a report next monday and i was tasked to define what exactly is dropbox. This video is really helpful i think i can make it better with this.
Thanks for sharing. My office needed us to start using the Dropbox for data and all departments. I had to rush down . This was really helpful. Looking forward to seeing more of your videos.
Hello! Great video! The additional question I need help with is file sharing sub-folders. I am trying to have a main folder and only let individual people have access to each sub folder. For example - Time Sheet is main folder then I have an individual folder for each employee, but I don't want them each to have access to the others timesheet. It seems if I give them access to the main folder there is no way to control individual access to each sub-folder....I hope my question makes sense. Thank you in advance.
Great video! It answered a lot of basic questions for me in getting started with Dropbox. I have a few questions, hopefully they'll be of help to others in similar situation: 1- If I upload my MacBook Pro's 3TB Photos Library to my unlimited Dropbox account, will the file also use up an additional 3TB from my MacBook Pro's internal SSD? (I hope that the answer is No!) 2- Can I open this 3TB "uploaded" Photos Library from another MacBook Air, iPad, or iPhone that only has let's say a 256GB SSD? 3- If I delete this 3TB Photos library from my MacBook Pro's SSD, will it remain in Dropbox and still be accessed from all my OS/iOS devices including my MacBook Pro? Thank you in advance for your assistance!
I have two questions that you might know the answer for. If I use dropbox for a collection of large project files as "online-only" files, can I still open them with the associated GIS software on my computer or would I need to download them locally each time? The second is, if you use Dropbox as a back-up but you also want to have a secondary and tertiary backup with physical hard drives can you download the online-only files straight to the relevant back-up location in the hard disc?
I created folders in Dropbox to place my files from the disk... a mistake: I should have told Dropbox to mirror the content of my Mac OS hard disk (Have 2 TB). How can I tell dropbox to clear the actual mishmash simply mirror my hard disk? Another consideration is whether or not Mac Time Machine should somehow be involved.
I'm using dropbox for the first time for a class. When playing the videos for my class the videos keep dropping off like it's buffering. When the video begins again, it starts back at the start of the class. I've gotten to where I have to keep track of the time on the video so I can fast forward to the time on the video. Then after a few minutes it will drop off again. I'm curious to see what you believe may be causing this issue. Thank you.
Tough call to unlearn nacisists from parenting, but it can be done. Your foolproof guidance is most helpful! Thank you. W super video such as yours. May l add, why appologise fe the length of video? It is a dense subject, & l find you you were concise & t point! ❤
It seems to me that files keep being downloaded to Dropbox without my approval. I don't want that. How can I insure that I have complete control of what is downloaded? (9/20/23)
I have a business plan with 5TB. I want to use some space for my personal stuff. My concern is with securing my personal files on the business computer. Some of my files are very sensitive and I need to make sure they are 100% safe. Can I do it withing the business account or should I open a separate, personal account?
I just bought a new MacBook Pro and I transferred all of my dropbox files and folders over to the new computer but a message or really a pop up window keeps coming up saying in bold print "Turn on accessibility", then in smaller print, it says to get the most out of Dropbox, select the Dropbox checkbox in Security & Privacy>Accessibility. Then it gives me the option in that little mini window to either select Learn More, or Not Now, or Turn On Accessibility. What is that about and do you recommend Turning on Accessibility for Dropbox? Thanks for any help on this.
A friend sent over photos in a Dropbox file… how do I then share them with someone else? Do I need to download their photos first and put them in a file?
Hi Thankyou for great tutorial. Can you tell me how to order files in the correct date order as it seems to order them in the date they were created on my computer
I've uploaded a lot of videos for a project. Is there any way to shuffle the order within the file once uploaded? I cannot see a way to do this. Thanks!
Question. How do I put EXISTING files (already on my Dropbox account) into a folder? I've got a big bunch of video files (mp4s and mov) that I want to put into my created folder "Videos." Can't seem to figure this out - I must be missing something.
You mention that you have Dropbox app video? But I can’t find it. Anyway thank you for sharing your knowledge. I subscribed 🙏🏽 I got the app and find it hard to figure out when people share a file/map and how to find it again without having to push their link ? There is home (new) but I find it hard to see in the app where thing are. So many double files already (only had it for two days)
If a shared file is edited will everyone with the link to the file see the edits or does the edited file now have to be reshared to see the edits? Can two people work on the shared files at the same time..ex Google drive allows all holders of the link to work real time together adding content and all parties can see the content being added real time. Or is this a just file storing system and any changes made by a link holder has to be reuploaded to drop box ?
When I open the Dropbox app on my laptop, no app will appear in the taskbar. Only Win Explorer's Dropbox folder opens up to the workspace. And it naturally looks very different from the view of Dropbox website.
How can I open a pdf file in Dropbox web using Adobe Acrobat on macOS? When I select open file with… Adobe is not showing up. If I start with Adobe I cannot get to the web version of contents of Dropbox. Thank you.
I just watched your video on Dropbox. It is very helpful and you demonstrate your expertise on the subject. But I found myself pausing or replaying about every 30 seconds. It would be more effective if you slow down, repeat key concepts, and phrase important ideas in different words. "Repetition is the engine of learning." You're clearly a subject matter expert. But being an expert in a subject is not the same as being the best possible teacher.
Is there a way to save my files locally and delete my Dropbox account? I don't want to delete anything, but I don't need Dropbox anymore. Just wondering if there is a way without downloading each folder one at a time. Thanks!
Great tutorial thanks. You are a good teacher. Please clarify one thing. If I delete files from the Dropbox folder on my local drive, will they be preserved in the cloud?
If you delete it, it will delete in the cloud too. You can just offline it. That way, it remains on the cloud but not on your computer. Right click on the file and choose online-only
Thanks. This has been very helpful to me as I haven't been using Dropbox much in the last year or so, but now have a couple of projects where I need to share some files that are larger than outlook will send. My only problem with Dropbox is the app doesn't work on my Win10 machine.after downloading and installing the app, when I open it, all I get is the File Explorer box for the Dropbox folder (there's no place for me to log-in). To open Dropbox, I must log in from the website and then my screen looks like the screen from this video.
I need the part where I move from dropbox back to desktop. A Folder with word documents in it I put in dropbox I downloaded it then tried to move from the download file folder into documents and the VLC cone showed up like it had changed to a media file folder??
The problem I experience is that the person I securely shared the file with can see all my other files. I only want the person to be able to see the file I sent them, not the list of files in my dropbox account. On top of that the password I create for the shared folder is not required. I want the share file to require they enter the password I created. Dropbox is not a product that is secure. You need to use another program for that.
Please can you help me. I have photos in my Dropbox but I want to put them on a USB. How do I do this and if I then delete files in Dropbox will I lose them?
12/01/2021: Thank you for sharing your knowledge with people like me who are using dropbox for the first time. I cannot see my own comment/note I wrote to a client when I shared a folder with them to download the files within the folder. I am sure my comments/note is in front of my eyes, but I cannot find them. Could it be the way I am viewing my dropbox account?
I change my phone and play store I'd so now I m unable to sign in my Dropbox accounts plz help me because my yahoo ids are not working they are sending me code on my yahoo I'd and I'd is deactivated I m in trouble plz help me

you can rename files with number sequence (or date and number seq) and sort by name.
This is an excellent video. Thank you so much!!
I like your presentation..thank you

Thank you Howfinity good job at explaining this.
In my Dropbox website, the column "Size" only shows "--".
Is there a way to show folder sizes and ultimately sort folders by size?
Do you have an apple ipad tutorial on how to upload all photos to Dropbox?

When trying to share a file, Drop Box does not recognize the e-mail, it only recognizes members......and will not allow me to send. Why is this?
Thanks. This has been very helpful to me as I haven't been using Dropbox much in the last year or so, but now have a couple of projects where I need to share some files that are larger than outlook will send.
