Upload crashes in Chrome. What can I do?

Hi there GG_drop, sorry to hear about this.

Can you please let us know your computer's exact OS version and where your Dropbox folder is located as per the sync tab in the app's preferences, if possible before the app crashes? 

Do the crashes happen after you take a certain action or immediately after launching it?

Any additional information you can share is more than welcome!

Dropbox is located in "Locations".

Still have only old backups from my laptop and another iMAC, occupying less than 4% of my 2 TB.

Reinstalled all, and no limits on bandwidth.

New computer installed by 'migration assistant'.

Thanks,

Thanks for the additional information GG_drop 

Could you clarify when the crashes occur as well for us? 

Upon uploading as can be seen in the screenshots (Chrome)

thank you!

OOps forgot another screenshot- please see here

Hi GG_drop, just to sum it up: it seems you're using Chrome to upload content to your account online. 

Now, judging from the last screenshot and the amount of files you're trying to upload at once, it makes sense that the website would crush.

You can either break the amount in smaller batches, or use the app, to upload content to your account, and allow for it to sync online. Can you give it a go, and let me know of the results? 

thank you!

Tried with Safari and it works to some extent, in chunks of data (which was impossible with Chrome). The reported task I got is quite funny:

only 20 years left to complete.

Nevertheless, it working very very slowly but working somehow no.

Problem left (for the time being...):

The "updating files" takes forever. Pleaae see:

thank you so much!

One more question: you wrote:

"or use the app, to upload content to your account, and allow for it to sync online."

Do you mean the Desktop application in "Locations" and dragging folder there?

This sounds as a better approach but I'm not sure how to do it

Again, many thanks

GG

Hi GG_drop, yes, if you move files and folders into your Dropbox folder, the Dropbox desktop application would sync them to the site.

Do you have any proxy, VPN, firewall, security software, or even ISP/router settings that could be restricting traffic to the following Dropbox domains?
