Right now, the automated backup option in Dropbox allows me to sync my Documents, Desktop and Downloads folders. By far the biggest - and most important - folder on my computer is the Music folder though. I can imagine for other people it's Pictures. Could we have a way to automatically backup those folders too? To be really ambitious: would we be able to clone our computer on Dropbox? I used to have an Apple Time Machine that allowed you to do just that. If your computer broke down or was stolen, you could buy a new one, let it download the clone, including not just your documents but your applications and presets too, and you'd be good to go! Please let Dropbox be the new Time Machine.74KViews239likes159CommentsDark Mode for Dropbox on Web
Hello Everybody! I have created this thread to provide updates on Dark Mode for Dropbox on Web. We are closing off the longer thread for general Dark Mode requests so that we can provide our community with updates for specific products, and so that requests don't get lost. At the time of posting, our team is looking into Dark Mode for Web, but cannot provide a time frame for implementation. You can vote on this post and comment here to show your support. I will update the status of this idea when we know more! Regards, Ben26KViews48likes31CommentsPlease allow pairing of more than two accounts.
Please allow pairing of more than two accounts. As a contractor, I am a member of a company's business account, a team member of another company, and have my personal account. It is frustrating to only be able to pair two of them, so that when I need to access the third, I have to completely sign out of the others and sign in fresh for the third.17KViews40likes84CommentsHow can I completely disable Smart Sync?
How can I completely, 100%, disable Smart Sync so that Dropbox will always download all of my files? The settings I have found all apply to NEW files and seem to have no impact on old files. What I would like is to set my Dropbox to behave as if Smart Sync does not exist or has ever existed.Solved73KViews30likes66CommentsDeleting licenses
Is way to difficult and convoluted and took much more time than it should have. This is the worst experience I've had with Dropbox. You normally make things easy. This was a pain in the ass, and for no good reason. I have deleted members months ago, didn't re-assign their licenses and was continuing to get charged. So I wanted to reduce the licenses. It was damn hard to find the way to do this. You should present the links in the same place as the delete team members location......very annoying25KViews20likes28CommentsHow do I sign in to my Dropbox account if I've made too many login attempts?
I have a problem logging in after I did phone reset. At first I thought that maybe I am entering wrong password so I did password reset as well but it doesn't help. I waited for hours but nothing is changing. I tried to uninstall and install app again but problem still persists.Solved179KViews13likes76CommentsHow to disable Dropbox almost full notification?
I would like to have the CHOICE to disable the "Dropbox Almost Full" notification. As a temporary solution, I have chose to not start Dropbox on system boot and close it, but I would like to know how can I disable this message with Dropbox open.Solved40KViews10likes32Comments
