Why does the Dropbox desktop app hijack my screenshots?
How to stop dropbox from taking my screenshots. The solutions privided do not work. There is no way to get the app to load on a mac. Opening the dropbox icon, which is supposed to open the app just opens the folder. The App never opens so the preferences section is never available to fix this screenshot hijacking issue. This is a known issue why is it not fixed?
I changed my e-mail address and now the Dropbox desktop app doesn't sync anymore
Device Macbook Pro, Apple M1 Pro, 16GB Operating System/Browser (if using the web) macOS Sequoia 15.7.3 (24G419) Dropbox App Version (if using the app) Syncing Status Question or Issue I remember getting a message saying that it cannot store the file. It asked me to check the internet connection, but that worked fine.
Cannot view all my folders locally from the File Explorer, but can see them online.
Device N/A Operating System/Browser (if using the web) N/A Dropbox App Version (if using the app) N/A Syncing Status N/A Question or Issue Recently moved to new Windows 11 laptop. Able to download DB for desktop and also access DB via Edge. However, when I used File Explorer to view/add content to my folders, I can only see 9 of them (and I show 24 folders online). Saw a support article about Selective Sync. I've never used it. But in troubleshooting I thought I should at least check to see if it may have been a default. Cannot find it! So 2 questions: 1) how do I find SS? 2) how do I make sure all 24 folders are viewable on File Explorer and DB desktop app?
