Can I have multiple users, each with their own security?
I'm backing up User Folders for several friends. I'd like to be able to find a way to do that so each person can log on to an account and see only their own files. I don't care if they see other folder names ... I just don't want them to access the information in those folders. Is there a way to do this with Dropbox? Currently I back up everything to a local NAS. It works fine but lacks two things: the only person who can access the NAS and see the folders is me. Second, if I gave additional access to each user, then every user could see every other user's information. Thanks.
Set up Dropbox to sync to external storage
Hi, I've searched for answers but I couldn't find anything that's less than 5 years old, and I'd like to figure out the answer before I make a mistake that I can't fix. Currently, I selectively sync some of the photos because there are lots of them. I'm out of space on the computer, and I want to move my Dropbox files to an external drive so that I no longer have to sync selectively. I want a local copy of all of my Dropbox files. According to what Dropbox said years ago (would't let me post the link so pasting the text), if you unplug a drive while Dropbox is running, Dropbox might start deleting your files. Is this information accurate? Thank you __________________________________ Dropbox can indeed be used with an external hard drive as long as you can ensure the drive is always connected to your computer while Dropbox is running. If the drive is ever disconnected from the computer while Dropbox is running there is a small chance that the Dropbox software will start deleting files before realizing that the entire drive has been removed. Additionally, you should ensure that the file system of the external drive meets the file system requirementsas found in the following Help Center article: https://help.dropbox.com/installs/system-requirements (As you mentioned a new PC, I guess you're (going to be) using a Windows device so you'll need to make sure that theDropbox folderwill be on an NTFS-formatted hard drive) To move your Dropbox folder to an external drive use the steps in the following Help Center article:https://help.dropbox.com/installs/move-dropbox-folder [The location you select is the folder the Dropbox folder will be moved to, rather than the folder your Dropbox files will be stored in.]
How do I choose a different location for my Dropbox folder? I have MacAir Sonoma 14.0
I have Mac air Sonoma 14.0. On my old computer I was able to place the Dropbox folder on my desktop. With this new laptop, I am unable to change the folder location. If I go to library and find the Dropbox folder and place it on my desktop, it says I won’t be able to connect to Dropbox until I put the folder back in its original spot. How do I put the folder on my desktop?
