Incorrect Timestamp shown to uploaded files

Hi All, I've been facing this issue since early this year and I notice the problem only appears for me on the web version of dropbox with a particular excel file. At home i'm using windows 10 with dropbox & google drive clients. Both have this same copy of file. At work I have windows 7 with google drive client but not dropbox. so at work i have to use the web version of dropbox. whenever i check the timestamp, on dropbox will show 1 day in advance. example, file last modified is 5th October 2018, at 8pm (local time, gmt+8). at work, i'll see the file in google drive (both client and web) as 5th October 2018, 8pm but on dropbox web i'll see it as 6th October 2018, 8pm. I've checked that automatic timezone is not set and is manually set to malaysia (gmt+8). 

i can only confirm which of these dates are correct when i'm home as i would check the local folders themselves but seems i can't trust the timestamp on the web versions. at one point sometime this year the issue seems to be fixed by dropbox, but recently it came back again. any ideas appreciated.

What I have now found is that videos are imported at  the computer time zone, while photos have the correct time stamp.

It happens I was at GMT-3 taking all and now returned to GMT-8.

All my uploaded videos dates (and names) are 5 hours behind the time they were indeed taken...

Any thoughts?

Thanks

I have started using FileZilla Pro to upload files to Dropbox because the desktop application became useless to me since you've stopped allowing symlinks in my local Dropbox directory.  File dates and times for files uploaded show the date and time the file was uploaded and NOT the date and time of the file on my local hard drive.  This problem does NOT happen when uploading files to Google Drive.  So it isn't FileZilla Pro that is the problem.  Is there a fix for this or will I need to just move my nightly backups to GDrive.

Is Preserve Timestamps set for the Dropbox connection?

Where is the Preserve Time Stamps connection setting ???

Dropbox Not Updating Timestamp
I manually sync my citation database (EndNote) between PCs after updating the database and closing the program.
The EndNote database is NOT in the Dropbox folder.
After updating the database I copy all file manually to the designated Dropbox folder where I keep the synced files.

When I start work on another PC I first copy all files off the designated Dropbox folder to a folder not synced by Dropbox. At the end of my work, I repeat the above update after closing the database program, and copy the files back to the designated Dropbox folder.

I have noticed that some files that have identical checksums (and binary compare) do not have an updated timestamp.

Please advise.

Hi guys!

I reported this issue back in 2017 and I was told that it's going to be fixed, but I still see it is not. 

I see that when photos and videos are uploaded from my Android phone to the Dropbox cloud, they are getting renamed in the cloud folder and their name reflects their date and time, as follows for example for photos '2019-11-21 08.33.25.jpg'. This is fine for photos, this is expected. But video files do not get correct time in their file name! Video file time reflected in its file name is 10 or 11 hour behind, because I am on Sydney time zone (UTC+10 or +11). So for video files time is UTC, which is wrong, it does not take time zone into account. This happens only to video files. Photos are fine. 

Currently I am on Samsung Galaxy S10, Android 10. Dropbox app is the latest version. But the issue is still the same as back in 2017 and before.

Is there any solution for this?
