Using DB to sync Password Vaults
I have a Android phone (ver. 9). I use a password vault that depends on its database file being synchronized between PC desktop and my cell phone. On a previous cell phone, this arrangement worked very well. Now with my new Pixel 7 pro phone, it is not working. I suspect it is because my cell phone version of DropBox is not syncing correctly. I would like the DB to automatically synch every time I open or close the cell phone. But I suspect it is not happening. I don't know how to determine if I am looking at the latest DB contents on my cell phone. I also do not know how to force a synch. Can anyone point me in the right direction? Thanks, Tom1.1KViews0likes3Comments

Question about file name date_time format for Google Pixel/Google Backup/Google Photos/Dropbox users
Hello: For the first time tonight I noticed MP4 videos recorded on a Google Pixel 4a, with correct network time, had newer date_time info in the PXL_20240926_hhmmsssss.mp4 file name structure, than the actual capture time. I am pretty sure this happened via the process of backing up to Google Photos, and not the Dropbox upload process. I have to go look at my other file storage to confirm. I record with three Android phones, two of which have no sim cards. The latter two I sometimes transfer from by USB cable. The no-sim-card phones were used for a concert earlier and all files had the exact correct time info. This is critical to identify them in sequence and to find different views of same real-time events. So this is probably a Google Backup question for others you have hardware or experience similar to mine. Renaming files with later date & time seems to have no benefit, so I'm trying to figure out how to prevent/avoid this. Renaming with different date_time file names based on whatever random order they were backed up in, is destructive. That may even explain some lost files. I'm asking in this community because it's the end use where the problem was discovered. I am certain if I ask in Google, I will get utterly worthless & irrelevant AI garbage in response. Oops, I mean AoI...Absense of Intelligence. Thanks for reading and your thoughts. MurraySolved1.8KViews0likes2CommentsCan Google docs be edited in Dropbox?
Forgive me if this is a silly question: Many of my clients send me a google doc to edit/view dynamically, alongside them. Is there any way to have Google docs functionalit (have multiple people be able to edit and see changes in real time), but have that doc located/stored in a Dropbox folder on my desktop? I want to stop having to open my google drive folder and just have all my MS and Google docs loacted in my DB folder, but also keep the functionality of google docs.651Views0likes2Comments
Could you apply to become a Cloud media provider for Android?
Not sure if this fits to the "Integrations" Category, but yeah, change it if you feel like it's wrong. https://developer.android.com/training/data-storage/shared/photopicker https://developer.android.com/guide/topics/providers/cloud-media-provider While uploading a photo to an app, photo picker interface opens. This interface (from what I can see, this looks like a new feature of Android) allows user to pick a photo from their Android device and lets user to do his action. Anyway, I met with this recently and there is an option to select the photo from a cloud media provider; where I expected to see Dropbox among the cloud service provider options, but Dropbox wasn't there. Seems like you guys have to apply to be shown as cloud service provider to Android, and seems like application can be done from this form. https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1MGECQc2N-UnYFF5DIxeRq7AjrJ9bh_3KmoWsK8dq9ZM/viewform?pli=1&pli=1&edit_requested=true So yeah, please apply, so that I can pick my photos from my Dropbox account with this interface, so that I can upload them, or send them or whatever action I wanna do.2.6KViews1like11Comments
