- hahmed446 years agoExplorer | Level 3Hi, Lusil. Thank you for your response and help. I use flash-mp3-player.net as my mini MP3 player for my tumblr blog. Changing the end of my MP3 Dropbox links from dl=0 to raw=1 used to make my Dropbox MP3 links work and play the song. Now it does not. I used Firefox and Opera and Explorer to see if that was the cause of my problem but it wasn’t. It made no difference. So now some of my blog has working MP3 players and most do not. It’s frustrating because this has happened to me before in the past and I had to redo every single song I have on my tumblr page. If you go to flash-mp3-player.net and change the ending of your MP3 Dropbox link to raw=1, the song will still not play. I tried it on every different player they offered to see if that also made a difference but it didn’t.
Thank you kindly for helping me, Lusil.
Cheers,
Hana

Hi hahmed44, thanks for checking in with us.
I'd be happy to help, I'll just need a bit more info to make sure I have a better understanding of what you're seeing. For example:
- Do you get a specific error message? If so, could you send me a screenshot (without any personal info)?
- Does this happen with any other file type?
- Have you tried previewing the links from another browser? What about an incognito window?
Let me know of any updates - thanks!
