Hello Community Ive been with DROP BOX for over 15 years. Ive reached my limit and cannot stomach the owners of DB anymore. Fleecing small business is not admirable. Creating confusing menus to generate more revenue aimed at small business owners who cannot manage these complicated systems. I initially signed up for DB as a storage tool but realized you cannot rely on DB for storage as files are constantly lose however ive been able to use the the platform as collaborations tool. However the platform has become a cess pool of dishonest practices. I pay thousands of dollars per year you would think i could have access to support? You want me to explain to you all these error messages. The platform is purposely deceptive in order to upsell. These practices are making people like Drew Houston more money and are contributing to working class peoples misery. I have a small business im paying enterprise rates yet i dont have access to support (which i bought the add on). I cant add a team member to a folder says im not the owner but i am the owner i cannot contact support despite paying $3k per year. This platform is awful. Someone tell me a good alternative please for the love of GOD24Views0likes3CommentsTell Us How You Use Dropbox

accessing new shared files was easy by opening the email link. Now the admin person has to send a code as well for access. It is very confusing for not tech savvy people and also means the admin person has to be available all the time to send the code. please stop this nonsense or tell me how I can turn it off.42Views0likes1CommentSupport send to iPad/iPhone in preview markup
Normally when I take screenshots on my mac I can send the image to my iPad and markup the image on my iPad (without needing to save the image to my iPad). I find this really useful as I can markup my screenshots with Apple Pencil. It would be super handy if Dropbox screenshot markup supported this also.35Views1like1CommentClassic ASP read folder for https file links.
Hi, I am trying to use classic ASP to read the contents of a folder and create a list of hyperlinks to each file in the folder. I have created a script using an api token and it seems to execute but never produces a list. Has anyone got a bullet proof script which will do this?Password-protected links should allow direct download without login or register
When I share a file or folder and create a password-protected link, it would be great if, when someone opens it, and want to download, they arenât asked to log in or register â clicking the download button should simply download the file.106Views1like3Comments"Couldn't copy link" error only on a specific file

How can I fix this ?Solved79Views0likes9CommentsIntegrated Video Publishing & Distribution Platform
Dropbox already holds our video files. Dropbox Replay already lets us collaborate on them. The missing piece? A clean, professional way to publish and distribute them. The Vision Imagine approving a final cut in Replay and publishing it directly to a branded, ad-free video playerâhosted right from your existing Dropbox storage. No re-uploading. No third-party platforms eating into your budget. Just seamless delivery. Core Features Ad-Free Branded Player Custom player controls, your colors, your logo. Professional presentation without the clutter of platform ads or recommended videos pulling viewers away. Native Replay Integration Approve a video in Replay â publish with one click. The workflow stays inside Dropbox from raw footage to final delivery. Social Distribution Bridge Push to YouTube, Instagram, Vimeo, LinkedIn, and others from a single dashboard. Stop downloading, reformatting, and manually uploading to five different platforms. Unified Analytics View counts, engagement, and performance metrics across all platforms in one place. No more hopping between native analytics tools. Bandwidth-Based Pricing This is key. We're already paying for storage. Charging again for the same bytes doesn't make sense. Price tiers based on monthly bandwidth or views would be far more logical and competitive. Why This Makes Sense for Dropbox You've built the storage. You've built the collaboration layer with Replay. Video hosting is the natural third pillar â and it keeps users inside the Dropbox ecosystem rather than pushing them to Vimeo, Wistia, or others. For creators, agencies, and businesses already using Dropbox for video workflows, this would be a compelling reason to consolidate even further. Submitted by a Dropbox user who's tired of paying for storage twice.52Views2likes3CommentsCannot share file due to phishing content
I've suddenly found that files I've previously been able to share are no longer working. The error message was simply "Couldn't complete share" with no further details or anything helpful. As a test I uploaded a new text file and tried to share that. This time I got a different message: "Canât share file: Weâve interrupted your sharing activity because your files might contain phishing content." I have no idea which file or files might be the issue, so I've deleted some old files that are no longer current (those are still in the "Deleted files") and left just the files I need to share. What do I need to do to restore sharing?49Views0likes3Comments
