Incorrect Timestamp shown to uploaded files
I noticed yesterday that the timestamp on my uploaded and edited files are anywhere between 6 and 9 hours earlier. My Time zone settings are set correctly.
Hi all,
The issue of incorrect modified dates showing on files uploaded via our website should now be fixed for all users. If anyone is still seeing files showing an incorrect modified time versus the timezone setting on their account please let me know!
Regards,
Frank

Sorry to hear about that Morgan101010!
Can you clarify for me please, where did you check the timezone settings?
Was this from your device settings, or from your Dropbox account?

Hi Morgan101010, could you check if the timezone is correct on the Dropbox site from the previous link Daphne provided?

Hi there RachForsyth; thanks for joining the discussion here and sorry to hear you're also seeing wrong time-stamps on files uploaded to Dropbox.
Can you please let us know if you're uploading those files through a mobile device or a desktop one using our apps or if you're only using a web browser?
Any additional information is more than welcome!
- Morgan1010106 years agoExplorer | Level 4I think its time to cancel dropbox and move all my photos and media somewhere else. Im over this crap. My photos are still being put up with the wrong timestamp. Then Im asked questions about my settings and never hear anything again. Get a grip Dropbox, help your customers!
- RachForsyth6 years agoExplorer | Level 4Thanks Walter!
I've been using the app on my Samsung 10? - Jay6 years ago

Hi RachForsyth, are these for files you manually uploaded using the mobile app, or for images/videos which used the automatic camera uploads?
