Apple Silicon (M1) Desktop Sync Compatibility
Please can you upgrade the Dropbox app so that it works natively on Apple Silicon Macs (M1) without Rosetta. Rosetta is not an option as it annihilates the battery. This may be a duplicate of the below idea however that started for ARM processors in general and you haven't looked at it in 6 years so starting an Apple specific idea in the hope you see it. https://www.dropboxforum.com/t5/Dropbox-ideas/Desktop-app-with-syncing-for-devices-with-ARM-processors/idi-p/57554/page/18 There are also lots of comments on this thread to help support the case for demand: https://www.dropboxforum.com/t5/Dropbox-installs-integrations/Dropbox-Apple-Silicon-M1-install/td-p/500325Solved232KViews2016likes496Comments
MOV file downloads to Dropbox with audio but without video
When MOV videos from my wife's iPhone download to our Dropbox desktop app, we can't view them. The audio transfers but there is no video with it (black screen only). I do not have this issue with my Android phone, which transfers as a MP4 file. I also noticed that we are able to view her MOV videos from Dropbox.com, just not the desktop app. I unistalled and reinstalled the Dropbox desktop app, but the problem persisted. I use the desktop app to backup these videos on an external hard drive and have not been able to find a way to do this via Dropbox.com. Please help me fix this issue! Thanks, RyanSolved25KViews0likes15Comments
Why is the Dropbox desktop app running so slowly?
Why is Dropbox smart sync terribly slow? I have 1GB/sec up and down for speed, with a hard connection into an iMac Pro and it takes forever for large files to download when I switch them from online to local? I have a plane to get on tomorrow morning and was looking to take some videos with me to edit, now I can't because dropbox is painfully slow. I was told you do not throttle speed, but I find this "extremely" hard to believe. All of my files were "up to date" already sync'd and then I switched one 70GB file to local so I could transfer it to my portable SSD, its been 4 hours and its at like 2%. This is absurd for a paying customer. Between this and your infamous storage issues with Mac that you continue to blame on Apple, I keep asking myself why I continue to use you? You never work when I need you the most.Solved8.1KViews5likes15Comments
