"waiting for bolt.dropbox.com" message and I cannot download my photos to use?

[Tdidi]

I keep getting a message when I try to download any of the photos off of my shared dropbox folder. Why? How do I fix it? I need to download some of those photos pretty quickly and am so frustrated. I am on a Macbook Pro and am using Chrome for my internet connection.  Please be specific with any suggestions on what I can do?

Hi @Tdidi, thanks for bringing this to our attention.

Could you try switching browsers to see if this helps? 

Otherwise, you can try using incognito/private browsing mode without any extensions running, clearing your cache and even resetting your browser entirely. 

Keep me updated with any progress.

Same DAMNED error for me too. Pathetic. Fix it.

This is very frustrating....I have tried everything on internet several browsers, check on antivirus, blockers, etc and still having issues.   What's going on??

Hey @HRodzPR, sorry to hear about this.

Could you clarify what actions you are taking when you notice this and, if possible, send us a screenshot so  that we can have a visual too?

In 2023,  I have the same problem. bolt.dropbox.com does not respond.

Hey @GM_23, how are you today? 

Do you get this message on a specific browser, or did you try multiple ones? Also, do you see this particularly when you try to download your content? 

Let me know more, and we'll take it from there!
