Hello,
Recently Dropbox has been uploading photos with different file names and date formats. Example: some files will be named "2022-04-07 17.07.01" and others will be named "Photo Apr 07 4 29 40". All photos were taken on the same device (iPhone). Also, all photos are uploading to multiple computers in an office, is this a syncing issue or something else? I have already gone into settings and set Date Format preferences to "YYYY-MM-DD".
Thank you 🙂
I'm glad to hear it's sorted now and thanks for keeping me in the loop too, Pete.
Have a lovely week ahead and see you around!

Okay, but WHY does Dropbox use two different naming conventions? And why is there not yet and automated feature to rename the files from one naming convention to the other?
Please please!
