Dropbox not uploading/ uploading v slow

[jeanzbeanz]

I have dropbox installed on multiple devices and they all work fine, except it has suddenly stopped uploading on my windows laptop.

I moved a load of photos off my phone onto dropbox on my laptop last week and only a handful have uploaded.  The icon in my tray says it is syncing 405 files and has 36 minutes left.

It's definitely not a problem with my bandwidth and I have checked the settings to make sure that dropbox isn't set to a low upload speed.  

I have tried pausing sync and restarting, I have tried closing dropbox and re-opening.  I have also tried restarting my laptop and it uploaded 5 files then stopped again.

I am a pro user and have only used 50% of my available space.

Can anyone help?

@meljaxx Yay!

This works until you need to upload a file or directory that is larger than a few hundred MB in size.

Sorry I haven't seen the ticket - if you could resend to [Personal Information removed by @Jane] that would be helpful! 

A handful of photos have uploaded today... but still going EXTREMELY slow.

Hi, I'm still having issues 😞

I haven't had time to trawl through the 20 pages of responses on this thread - I suspect most of them are users saying "me too"!

To give you some kind of idea how slow it's going, my computer has been on all this time and is now at 345 files...
