Dropbox Paper completely disappeared from new UI
I've been using Dropbox Paper since it first came out. I just noticed now the UI of Dropbox paper has been updated. However, now when I go to the Paper home, none of my papers show up. None. The entire page is empty. I did noticed that I now have a "migrated paper" folder in the main Dropbox UI. I can open this folder and access my old papers. However, why wouldn't my old paper be listed in the Paper UI? Another thing that's completely missing is shared paper folders. My partner and I have a shared paper folder. The shared folder was created by him and shared with me. I cannot find any reference to this paper folder in my Dropbox UI. Not the new Paper UI, not the main Dropbox UI. I tried to search for documents in this shared folder, and they showed up in the search result. When I click on the shared doc, Dropbox takes me to the OLD Dropbox Paper UI. What? Makes no sense! My partner's account doesn't seem to have migrated to the new Paper UI yet. When he logs into Dropbox paper he still sees the old UI. Is this ever going to get fixed? That's just insane product behavior. I'm a product designer in the enterprise world. Even in the darkest corners of enterprise product, we would never allow behavior like this. That would be a release blocker. What's going on Dropbox?
Can neither "copy to Dropbox" nor download folder from a shared link
I have an Essentials license with 3Tb unused space and 50Gb download limit I believe. Someone has shared a link with datasets in a Dropbox folder. Out of 200 or so folders, 13 I am unable to download saying The folder is too large to download. It won't Copy to Dropbox either. I press the button and there is simply no response. In the shared folder window, there are no options to select a number of folders. There is no way of me knowing how big the folders are. Its unbelievably poor functionality. What am I supposed to do? Is this data simply irretrievable?
old shared link gives "That didn't work for some reason" error
I'm trying to access some files using public sharing links i've created long time ago. All these links gives the same error message with the sad dog picture "That didn't work for some reason". I've cleared my cache, I've tried other computers, other web browsers : SAME ERROR. There is an existing thread in the forum for this, but "replies have been turned off for this discussion". The solutions proposed by dropbox staff are all similar and useless. It seems that dropbox made a change to their code that made all this old links not valid. if this is true : WHAT A SHAME FOR A FILE SHARING AND BACKUP SERVICE. if this is wrong, could you please give me a working solution without having to regenerate all the links ? hoping i'm wrong, thank you in advance, and happy new year
