Why can't I backup up any folder with Dropbox Backup?
We recently upgraded to Dropbox business and I am trying to give guidance to our team members for using dropbox backup to backup key folders from their computers. I cannot seem to figure this out. When I go thru the desktop app / preferences / backup the only folders that are available are shown here. How do I get an option to select any folder on my C drive? Thanks
Using Dropbox on an external drive with Mac OS File Provider?
Hi, I am a long time paying customer of Dropbox. I'm very happy with the service. The major reason I have chosen Dropbox over other cloud storage services is the ability for me to sync to an external drive. In my work I often have large folders added to my Dropbox and if it were to sync to my internal hard drive it would quickly become overloaded. When I learned that in latest version of Dropbox working with Mac File Provider will no longer allow users to sync to an external drive I was very concerned. Currently my system is still working, but I have found that is impossible to prevent Dropbox from auto-updating. I am trying to get ahead of this issue. Is it just a matter of time before my Dropbox updates, moves to my local drives and renders the service unusable for me? How can you launch without such a fundamental feature? When can we expect the feature to be restored? Thank you
