I can't save shared content to my Dropbox account, or download/print it. What can I do?
Hi, the first time someone shared files with me I was able to download them into my own Dropbox storage to view at my leisure. Now, they have shared more files but I can't download them. It says the function is disabled for all these files. Is that because they have not enabled it at their end? I just need to know if it's something they need to change please. I also cannot print the documents. Is that something they can enable at their end too? Or do I just download and then print once the documents are in my Dropbox storage?

Disable download for shared links not working.
I have my downloads disabled for a shared link. Whenever I test the link to another email, the download option is still there and able to be used. I just upgraded to the business, and I pay to use this feature on Dropbox, and for it not to be working is very frustrating. I've tried logging out from my Dropbox account, used several browsers,and used different emails, but NONE of them worked. Please advise!Saving image to Dropbox in iOS saves as URL
On iOS, when I save an image from Safari to the Dropbox app, before saving, the file name shows as a url file (and saves as a URL). I suspect today’s update causes this, because I was able to do this last night. I long press on an image > share > save to Dropbox At this step, the expanded menu recognizes the file type is an image, vs me mistaking it for an image, where it could be another file type. I’ve closed Safari, Dropbox and turned my phone off and on, issue persists.
I'm sharing a file via link, but it forces users to install the Dropbox app.
Been using DropBox for a few years without issue. Now when I share a link … users complain that they can’t access the file and instead get page to download DropBox. For one off file sharing I would not 3d left to be forcing them to install app. Here is sample link [personal information removed per the Community's Guidelines] It brings user to window as in picture attached here: (Can’t seem to be able to add a picture direct) https://flic.kr/p/2qS6nGbShared links are being downloaded instead of viewed
For years I mass produced document and use Dropbox to share the links with multiple viewers. Recently, when someone click on a shareable link, they are forced to download the document first. How do I resort back to the old way where a viewer can simply see the document without downloading it? I'm looking for a solution that can be used for all documents produced. In other words, I make hundreds of documents (and shareable links) at one time and can't change each individual document. Thank you in advance!
