if you have some of the turkish characters (like capital i in Turkish, which is İ) in your file name, dropbox do not synchronize, I realized it but it was too late, I lost lots of things... Please solve this problem..

The problem still alive. I think you afraid to solve it because of to lost most users files, normally this shouldn't be hard to solve the capital "i" problem. By the way, year is 2016, but dropbox still not support the "Turkish Language"! Maybe you couldn't realized that size of the Turkish Market. Your competitors support the Turkish Language, why we have to prefer you?

 

@Demetrios, I am sorry to tell you that but your answer is not acceptable. Please think once more.

I have two files in a dropbox folder with Turkish text. One is MS Word, the other PDF. Text is identical.

I cannot copy either of these files from Drop Box to my Windows 7 desktop. It just stalls.

I can, however, copy/paste these two files into macOS. I can also copy/paste them within Windows 7. Just can't copy from Drop Box, then paste into Windows 7.

This prevented me from copying a Drop Box folder that had hundreds of folders and files in it. Finally after copying and pasting individual subsets of folders, I found the culprit. Interesting that it happens with Word and also PDF.

Hahaha, 2 sene geçmiş halen bir çözüm üretememiş dropbox... Demetrios pek takmamış demekki bizi... Boşverin, başka bulut mu yok?

Başka bulut olmaz mi. Epeydir araştırıyorum. Sync su an favorim. Dropbox'dan daha ucuz ve diger konularda da aratmiyor. Onedrive, Google drive hepsini denedim. Mac/pc/mobil en sorunsuzu Sync. Tavsiye derim. Benim Sync firması ile herhangi bir bağlantım yok.

Sync'i bir inceleyeyim bakayım. Bakmadan önce sorayım, versiyon kaydediyor mu?

Hele ki son kullanıcı hesaplarının satılması olayından sonra artık Dropbox'ın güvenirliği iyice sorgulanır oldu. Sync alternatifler arasında en üst sıralarda. Deneyelim bakalım.

Versiyon kaydediyor. Dropbox'taki tüm özellikler mevcut ve Türkçe karakter problemi yok. Ve fiyatı daha uygun. iOS app yazıyorum ve cloud sync benim için gerçekten önemli. Dropbox Türkçe problemi beni fena yaktı. Sync'i yaklaşık 3 aydır ciddi şekilde yoğun kullanıyorum ve hiç sorun yaşamadım.

Dropbox'ın engellendiğini de düşünürsek daha bilinmeyen servislere yönelmekte fayda var... (;

Hello,

I have problem with uppercase versions of "i" as Turkish character.

Is there a way to find all files/folders in dropbox with capitalized i and change them with lower case ?

You could try going to www.dropbox.com/home and using the search bar in the top right?

 

Note that once you've found them you will need to rename them yourself, there isnt a tool to do that for you.
