      <title>Pause Sync while a specific application is running</title>
      <link>https://www.dropboxforum.com/t5/Dropbox-API-Support-Feedback/Pause-Sync-while-a-specific-application-is-running/m-p/479832#M24214</link>
      <description>&lt;P&gt;Is there any kind of trick or maybe a script to automatically PAUSE the synchronization while a specific programm is open?&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;Detailed Info:&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;I'm a music producer and am working with Digital Audio Workstations (DAW) and a lot of different projects; therefore Dropbox has to sync a lot of smaller files instead of a few large. I read that it takes more CPU if Dropbox has to deal with a large number of files and I want to pause the Sync while I have my DAW running, so the fans of my MacBook remain quieter. At the moment I always pause the sync "Until Tomorrow". It's basically just my laziness, that doesn't want to click that button manually all the time.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;Any Ideas?&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;Hey &lt;a href="https://www.dropboxforum.com/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/1388897"&gt;@fajebru&lt;/a&gt;, thanks for reaching out.&lt;/P&gt;

&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;

&lt;P&gt;Although you can currently&amp;nbsp;manually pause sync, you can post this as a feature that you'd like to see being implemented in the future, &lt;A href="https://www.dropboxforum.com/t5/Dropbox-ideas/idb-p/101002013" target="_blank"&gt;here&lt;/A&gt;.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;

&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;

&lt;P&gt;There, other users can comment and upvote your idea!&lt;/P&gt;

&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;

&lt;P&gt;In the meantime, I've moved your post to the &lt;A href="https://www.dropboxforum.com/t5/Developer-API/ct-p/101000041" target="_blank"&gt;Developer &amp;amp; API&lt;/A&gt; section, where someone might have some suggestions on how to achieve this.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;

&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;

&lt;P&gt;I hope this helps to some extent, but let us know if you have any other questions. Cheers!&lt;/P&gt;</description>
