Automated Dropbox Backup to LaCie d2 Professional
Hey everyone, In our office, we use Dropbox to save all our files, keeping everything up to date since we work on a project basis. Recently, we decided to enhance file security, so we purchased a LaCie d2 Professional 14TB storage device. Can anyone guide us on how to set up an automated backup from Dropbox to the LaCie d2 Professional maybe like a weekly or certain period of time, Appreciate it !! Thanks
Dropbox backup does not recognize my 2nd and 3rd internal hard drives.
I am trying to backup some folders from my two data hard drives installed internally on my Windows 11 computer. Dropbox isn't allowing me to choose additional hard drives within my computer, only the HDD which is used for installed programs only, no data such as documents, pictures, music, videos, project data, etc. (that choice box is grayed out) This makes backing up the folders that regularly need to be backed up impossible and makes the backup feature useless for me. Any tips on solving this mystery?
Scheduled camera uploads
I would like to schedule my Camera Uploads so that I have a chance to remove/organize things before they're uploaded. Ideally I could have options to set either the time or frequency - i.e. 2am every day, or "any item older than 6 hours." Two examples (on android) today: Sometimes I take 2 or 3 photos in order to choose the best one and delete the others. But even if I delete them quickly, dropbox is too efficient(!) and they've already upload there, where i have to clean them up again. If I take a screenshot and then edit it to add, say pen coverage, it uploads to dropbox as 2 files, even if I save over the original locally. Often I'm annotating an image to text to someone, but don't need it backed up in dropbox at all, so I'd delete it before uoload.
Dropbox Backup won't recognize external drive on MacOS Sequoia 15.2
Hello, I cannot get my external drive to show up in the "Add a backup" section of the Dropbox Backup. I've read a bunch of posts about this issue and it seems like there is no solution. Some have said erasing and reformatting their drive worked (an absurd "solution"), but that hasn't for me. I've also done all the other suggestions that Dropbox support and others have put forth to no avail. Is there really no fix for this? Apparently people have been having this problem for years now. Thanks for any info or help.Moving files on my desktop to the trash deletes them immediately instead.
I am running Dropbox Backup. On MacOS, when I drag a file on my desktop to the trash, it is deleted automatically. In other words, it does not appear in the trash in case I want to recover it later. I get a warning that says"This item will be deleted immediately.You can't undo this action." When the same file is in any other folder or location on my computer besides the Desktop, and I drag it to the trash, the behavior is normal - the files goes into the trash where I can see it and recover it if need be. I am running Dropbox Backup on Sequoia 15.2 on a 2020 M1 Macbook Air. Any thoughts?
Backup
Sir/Madam I am a very worried Dropbox user after 20 years. I have two computers in case one goes faulty. I downloaded one document unto computer number 1In a different location I switched to computer number 2 but was unable to work on the same document I realised that comp1 had not saved the document on DB and was offered the chance to backup the contents of comp1 which I did. I then backed up comp2 hoping to have them in a common location where I can access the document I was looking for. Sadly, the documents have been moved to an unknown location and cannot be accessed on either computer. Would you please please restore my documents to their original location where I can reach the same document from either computer as it amounts to many years of work. Many thanks.
