View, download, and export
Need support with viewing, downloading, and exporting files and folders from your Dropbox account? Find help from the Dropbox Community.
I'm doing a very large upload, and it's been running for a week or so now. I've seen by digging through other posts that the upload is proceeded in order of file size, smallest to largest. Fine.
However, the files are scattered across thousands of folders, and so viewing them in the desktop app is problematic and doesn't provide any meaningful data.
Is there a way to view the entire queue, in present order, simply with an eye to keeping track of what's going on and where the queue is?

No. With over 2000 files to go (on a 200,000+ file dump, I've been waiting for a week), that only shows the next few dozen files. I want to see the entire queue.

My dropbox (162.3.5368) does not show that upward arrow. When i click "XXX files syncing" it only shows me the "Pause" option...
Where can I see the whole sync queue? Any file I can watch?
For users dealing with large amount of files, it would be great to have access to the whole sync queue, including path, name and size.
Hey @LFPuntel, welcome to our Community!
You can see your app's syncing status, by following these steps. Also, if you click the Dropbox icon, the pop-up window should let you know more in regards to the files syncing there.
I hope this clarifies.

Hi Megan. Thanks, but this is not what i questioned.
Those steps wont take me anywhere where I can see the whole Sync Queue.
Thanks anyway.
Hi @LFPuntel, and sorry for jumping in.
If you click on the small Dropbox icon and check the top part of the window that will appear, do you see a tab under the name “Sync history” perhaps? Are you able to see more details, when clicking on it?
