36 TopicsUnknown folder appearing: "Migrated Paper Docs"
I recently discovered that a new folder has appeared in my main folder. The folder is called "Migrated Paper Docs". It contains a Dropbox Paper-document called "_Brainstorm_ What's your topic_ (Previously deleted)" and a folder called "Sample Docs". That folder contains a Dropbox Paper-document called "_ Get started with Dropbox Paper" The folder and it's contents seem to have been created 2024-10-30 except the "Get started..." document, which seems to be from 2017. I don't seem to have any documents in Dropbox Paper when I log in there. I can see the folder and it's content on all my devices and on dropbox.com, but all my other files have a green check mark, while this folder has a gray circle with a white cloud (whatever that means). Why was this folder added to my files? Is it safe to delete?Solved1.4KViews0likes1CommentI found some old Boxcryptor files, but don't have the key. Are they encrypted forever?
Hey there, I just found some encrypted files via Boxcryptor on an old drive and wonder if there's any chance to decrypt them. I missed the part of downloading the .bckey file. If I try to log in with my user on the website or on the app it says my user doesn't exist. Is there any chance to decrypt the files or am I just too late and the files are gone forever? Thanks for any help on that.556Views0likes4CommentsIs there an SFTP integration for Dropbox Business plans?

I currently have the latest iOS 17.5.1 and latest updates with Safari. Anyway, whenever I am using the browser plugin, I can see and create new entries, but I can’t edit them. There’s no option when viewing the information page (username, password, notes etc screen). The only way I can get edit options is to use the actual Dropbox Paswords app. Am I missing how to do this? If not, feature request?454Views0likes3CommentsIs it possible to email notifications to all signers
Hello Community, Does anyone know if there is a way, when sending a document with signing order turned on, for all signers to get email notifications as each person has signed? This way, the final signer knows who is creating the bottle neck by not signing. Thanks in advance!359Views0likes3CommentsHow can I backup our entire Enterprise Dropbox account?
We are planning to use Dropbox for our enterprise storage and file solution. We expect to have about 100TB of data across the world. For regulatory purposes and because the cloud is not a backup (at least from our view) wen want to have a backup of all the files. We need to be able go have backups for certain files 10 years back. We are using Veeam for all other backups. How do other companies handle this issue? I am thinking of two sulutions: Have a VM with dropbox sync and then backup the VM Use a Synology NAS with CloudSync as a backup Any other, better ideas?1.3KViews1like2CommentsI can only send Dropbox Sign reminders once an hour
Hi, I keep getting an error when trying to send reminders in Dropbox Sign saying I can only send to the recipient once per hour despite the fact I haven't sent them any reminders earlier in the day. This happens quite a lot. Am I doing something incorrectly or is this a Dropbox error? Thanks, J1.1KViews0likes7CommentsCan you use aliases from the Apps folder to another location on the Dropbox account?
We share ebooks and most of the readers now allow Dropbox sync but in the Aps folder. We share all our ebooks on Dropbox and now cannot add books centrally without regularly copying. If there was a method by which a folder can be synched to another folder with aliases such that file duplication does not impact storage this would mean apps that use the relative /apps/application fixed access folder could see shared content between users. This would aid collaboration on many applications that now have access only to the apps folder.879Views0likes2Comments
