Need to see creation date of backups loaded to Dropbox
I am using Dropbox as a secondary backup for customer files from my server. If a customer needs me to restore their data from a particular date I have to locate the files they want by the backup date of file . I just noticed Dropbox is changing all my file dates to the date I uploaded them from my server to Dropbox. I cannot figure out how to see the creation date of the files anymore. This makes them unusable to me as backups since I have no idea what date the backups are for All the files have a 6/15/23 date now so if I need to restore files from 5/1/23 I can't figure out a way to do that. Please advise.
Dropbox Mac Beta: Green Circles are gone - everything has the cloud symbol
I am assuming work is being done in the background, but as of a few days ago, I no longer have green circles for downloaded (available offline) files. Everything has a cloud symbol (that symbol doesn't even exist in the online documentation) but seems to be available offline. I am also getting lots of sync errors - but my files appear to be still on my computer (where I need them). And yesterday the DROPBOX icon disappeared from my sidebar (Locations). Only to show up again hours later. Strange. What is going on? These sync irregularities seem to be quite substantial. Syncing files is what Dropbox is all about. I am a little surprised this beta version was even released to the public. When I joined the beta, the email I got from dropbox made it sound like the final release was imminent.
