How can I create a shared MP3 link that can be previewed on another site?
Simply, I want to share the file EM01.mp3 from my drop box to users of my website using Google Sites. I want the file to use this basic audio player: <audio controls> <source src="YOUR_DIRECT_ONEDRIVE_MP3_URL_HERE" type="audio/mpeg"> Your browser does not support the audio element. </audio> I am missing something. I can't seem to generate my direct onedrive MP3 url. I really appreciate your help. Thanks Rick
Support embroidery machine file formats
I use DropBox to support my hobbies including YouTube, sewing, embroidery and cosplay. DropBox is a fabulous resource for backing up files and ensuring I don't lose digital assets such as sewing patterns (PDF) and images of my fabric stash for planning purposes. Embroidery machines use fairly unique file types and DropBox does not support the following file types: .art, .dst, .exp, .hus, .jef, .pcs, .pes, .sew, .vip, .vp3, and .xxx. I'm unable to use DropBox to support my embroidery hobby to backup/centralize/organize these specific assets.
A shared view-only link will not work as users have to log in and request access
I have tried this for hours and hours and it will not work. I have tried the app and the desk top version. I am doing everything correctly. Make a link for viewing only, set my password, set expiry date and copy the link. When the link is copied into my email and sent to the designated person. They are prompted to login to dropbox. They should be able to open the link in the email with NO dropbox account. If they happen to login into dropbox then they are forced to request access. I will not under ANY circumstances approve access and this changes them from link only viewing that is not downloadable or editable to being allowed to do whatever they want with the entire folder. As with other folk on the forum, I have cleared cookies and there is no placed for them to X out of the prompt to login. How do I correct this as I have a limited amount of time to send this off. If I change to one drive or Google Drive they rearrange all of my documents. I do NOT want to SHARE and I do NOT want to INVITE. As both of these allow them additional access to documents that MUST be controlled. I have also read on the forum it can be a software glitch. Why is it glitching for hours and days and weeks on end! I just finished paying for another month of professional and it does not allow me to do what I need to do and should be able to do. This is becoming a waste of my time and money.
How can I share a file with view access?
We use Dropbox for our weekly schedules. When I open a schedule (file), it opens in view mode. When my new employee opens a file, it opens in edit mode. This is dangerous because it's an excel doc and if she's accidentally in a cell and types anything, the previous information is erased. If I want to edit, from viewing the file I can click on the "open in" drop-down and choose "Excel for web", then edit and save & close. I want her to be able to open for viewing like I do with the option to open in excel for web. I've looked for help on this issue and the only response online is a quick view option . This will change settings for opening a viewing sidebar (which NONE of us want) or full screen. I've changed her settings to quick view full screen but it still opens in edit mode. Help???Shared links are being downloaded instead of viewed
For years I mass produced document and use Dropbox to share the links with multiple viewers. Recently, when someone click on a shareable link, they are forced to download the document first. How do I resort back to the old way where a viewer can simply see the document without downloading it? I'm looking for a solution that can be used for all documents produced. In other words, I make hundreds of documents (and shareable links) at one time and can't change each individual document. Thank you in advance!
