- 8 years agoHey, EMC2!You can upload files via the website, but please bear in mind that each file or folder must be 50 GB or smaller. For larger files or folders, you can use the desktop or mobile apps, which donât have a file size limit.As for the error, could you please try uploading the file from a different browser, using incognito and ensuring that youâre not using any browser extensions? If it does pop up again, could you please send a screenshot of it so as to have a better understanding of what youâre seeing?Thanks in advance! :grinning:

Thanks for making me aware of the 50GB limit.
I haven't tried another browser yet. I think it's bcause I use a mac. I found this interesting article.

8 years agoThanks for getting back to me on this, EMC2!
I also wanted to mention to please bear in mind that some small system files aren't synced over Dropbox, which includes .ds_store files
Nonetheless, let me know of any update! :upside_down:
