Delete, edit, and organize
Solve issues with deleting, editing, and organizing files and folders in your Dropbox account with support from the Dropbox Community.
Others on my team have experienced the exact same issue. The images we are trying to select are in folders saved to our own account.
This issue is making it impossible to efficiently delete/download batches of photos from a folder, any help is appreciated.
Hi Everyone,
Thanks for reporting this issue. It is still affecting some users at this time. Our Engineering team is aware and working on a fix. In the meantime, you can select a different view as a workaround. We will provide an update when we have more information.
Thanks,
Ben
I have the same problem. Did you find the fix? Thank you.
I'm seeing the same thing. I've tried on Chrome and Firefox. I can select several images from one row, but once I try to select anything else, the entire selection is undone.
Hi everyone, hope you’re all doing great!
Can any of you send me a screenshot of what you’re seeing exactly on your end?
I tested this myself and everything seems to be working normally, so I’d like to make sure I haven’t misunderstood something.
Let me know when you’re ready.

Hi Nancy,
When you select the first photo of the batch you are looking to do and hold the "shift" button on keyboard like usual, the entire page glitches out when trying to make the end photo one in a different row. I am able to select photos in the same row just fine, but not across multiple.
Similar issue, when trying to click on a single photo, 7/10 times the page does a similar glitch and scrolls up a few rows, selecting a random photo in the process.
Can you please provide an email address to share a screenshot? Would prefer to not share my gallery publicly.

Have the same issue here. Multi photo selection constantly glitches. Can only select items in one or 2 rows and move or delete them. Anything more, or trying to select multiple images in a folder that are not sequential, results in the same glitch. When glitching, the screen either jumps up a few rows, or all selected items are cleared.
Nancy,
I have taken a screen recording demonstrating the error, please let me know an email address I can share it with.
I have a screen recording that shows the process - selecting multiple files in grid view on one row, then attempting to select items from additional rows. I can email this if it's helpful.
This behavior appears to have been resolved. Can anyone else confirm?
