Dropbox Community ModeratorThanks for posting on the Community, Richard Laycock.
To look into this further, we’ll need to know the exact steps you’re following to transfer your files over to Dropbox. Are you following these steps?
Let me know and we’ll take it from there.
Thanks Nancy.
It wasn't as troublesome as I thought it would be. There is logic to it as the new tab is always closest to the GC's tab. Once all 30 sets are "Copied to Dropbox" moving the multiples is Drag 'n Drop. It's been 5+ years since I used Dbox. I recall it took a while to get used to the procedures.
Just trying to Reply is a pain in the neck. The CODE email is slower Dropbox than any site I've ever been to. It was about six minutes before 7 code emails showed up in my In Box. No one else takes anywhere near that long. Dbox must know they're slow. Anywhere else would have killed the link before the code arrived.
While I'm griping... I loath the current Open Space web design. Almost everyone is using this Large Print, constant scroll format. Every darn screen is at least 50% blank space. Great for web designers charging per page.

Hey Richard Laycock, while we appreciate your feedback here, can you also describe the steps you followed to move your files from Google to Dropbox?
Hannah,
I haven't moved all the Google Drive files over yet. I'll do that when I'm positive I'm switching.
I most likely will be in a week or two.R.
