I was surprised to find that the Photos tab in Dropbox online (i.e. at Dropbox.com) contains bookoo pics from wayyyy back. I've always deleted pics from the iPhone after naming and saving the ones I want to keep on my PC (in Dropbox folders of my own (conscious) creation). In Dropbox it says, "Camera uploads is turned off." Don't believe I've ever intentionally told Dropbox to save all photos.11Views0likes1CommentHow can I upload my iCloud photos to my Dropbox account?
I have run out of space on iPhone due to excessive photos. I want to move my photos to dropbox. Photos are on iCloud. What steps do I take to move the photos from my iCloud account to my dropbox account? Both are on the cloud. The iCloud photos are accessible on my macbook. I tried dragging and dropping and that didn’t work. I don’t have the dropbox app on macbook. Not sure I have the space for it. Thank you!

I use Dropbox on my computer to backup my work files which include my 3D renders that consist in a png sequence (one image per frame at 30 or 60fps), so I have thousands of png images related to renders but dropbox automatically adds them to the camera uploads in my phone app which is extremely annoying because I need to scroll down thousands of images to see my actual photos... if I delete them it deletes my render backup as well, it does the same thing for textures, which makes my photo roll unusable.248Views0likes8CommentsTrying to delete a file permanently but being asked for a password
Hello. I am trying to delete a file from my dropbox trash but it says I need a password to go and delete permanently even though I sign in with my google account which is suppose to bypass the password for deleting files or images permanently from trash, and when I put in the password for my google account, it says invalid password.

Application Affected (Dropbox App) Device (Samsung Tab S8.) Operating System/Browser (if using the web) (Android 15, One UI 7.0.) Dropbox App Version (if using the app) (444.2.2) Question or Issue I have been having problems open pictures (jpg, png, etc) from the Dropbox app. I can see pictures listed in the app. When I try to open them, they just stuck at the loading screen. Sometimes they may load after a few minutes. Sometime they will load forever. The videos and other documents open just fine. I can open pictures with third party app such as Samsung Gallery with no issue. It seems like the Dropbox picture viewer is having some trouble to load content. I have tried to clear cache and reinstall the App. I'm still having the same issue. Any help to resolve this problem would be appreciated.Solved146Views0likes7CommentsThe original creation date of my photos changes after uploading them via the mobile app.
I have been using drop box for years and never had this issue. When I upload photos from my phone to my drop box account using the app on my phone, the dates of the photos change to the date of upload, not the date taken. Why has this changed? How do I get the correct date of the photo? Thank you for your time97Views0likes2CommentsImages can't be restored to a previous version, right after overwriting them.
Dropbox App Version (if using the app): N/A Question or Issue Good morning. I discovered a bug in Dropbox related to restoring image file version history. Today, I accidentally overwrote an image stored in Dropbox and tried to restore a previous version. I was very surprised to see the file version field was blank and the "Restore" button was disabled (Attachment 1). I overwrote the same file again, and to my surprise, the correct version history appeared! (Attachment 2)268Views0likes12Comments
