How can I save my files locally?
Hello, I'm trying to upload some large media files on my desktop. The files show up in my Dropbox directory, but I am unable to download them so I can access them offline. I've tried countless times ...
Hi Megan, thanks for your help. All OS and apps are up-to-date. PC OS is Win11, current updates. DropBox app is 354.2.2 on Android 13. I copied the media files to the dropbox folder on my PC in hopes I could then download them on my Galaxy tablet. I just selected Make Available Offline for one file. It downloaded and played correctly. But then I clicked on Save to Device and now the file is downloading again. (Downloading stopped when I left the folder listing to check App version.) Many thanks

Dropbox Community ModeratorHey again, Robert! I know it may be hard, but can you check this via a different WiFi connection/cellular data on your mobile device, if that’s possible? Does that seem to work better?
- Thanks Nancy. I have tried a few wifi channels, Nome work. Tonight I'll be in Doha where I hope so speeds will allow direct transfer without having to use DropBox. Thanks again. I'll report
