Will the owner know if I download a file they shared through a link?
Someone shares a PDF file using the link. I clicked the link, and I was asked to register a Dropbox account to download the file. I am using my personal email to register this software. But I don't want the owner to know that it is me that have downloaded the file. I am concerned if the owner will know who is downloading their sharing files. What information is shared to the file owner when I download it? I am really new to this software thank you!
Wget or Curl is not downloading a folder as expected via the CLI in Linux
I am trying to download a shared folder into a unix server. I first copied that folder to my dropbox and then generated a share link. The link looks something like this: https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fo/v5xxxxxxx/AB1xxxxxxx?rlkey=123456abc&dl=1 I have tried multiple CLI commands. Some of them are below: wget https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fo/v5xxxxxx/AB1xxxxxx?rlkey=12345abc&dl=1 wget https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fo/v5xxxxxx/AB1xxxxxx?rlkey=12345abc&dl=1 --content-disposition curl -L -o output.zip https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fo/v5xxxxxx/AB1xxxxxx?rlkey=12345abc&dl=1 None of them download the folder but download some script instead. I have tried pasting the URL on the web browser and that works and I can see a ~140GB zipped file starting a download. Also, I have also tested TLS connection as I saw in another post that it might have an impact. TLS v1.2 seems to be working in my CLI but not v1.3. Any help is greatly appreciated as I have been stuck on this for so many days now! TIA
Recipient of shared link says double-click does not work
I create a link to a file in Dropbox and email it to a user. The user says that when they double-click the link, it does do anything. Their expectation (and mine) is that double-click would open the file stored at Dropbox. My conclusion is that there's something wrong with their application. Nothing is wrong with Dropbox. The email application is Thunderdird from Mozilla. Thanks for your help. SweetTashaCan 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?
I can't download a file sent through a link by IA
Hi everyone, im chating with IA and the app designed an excel and is trying to send it to me with a dropbox link. But when i click in the link it says that de link is wrong. Do you know if its possible what im trying to do? I cant solve it. (i tried with a lot of plataforms with same result) ThanksMake downloading from shared link less complicated and more streamline.
It's just incredibly hard for common folks to download their files. You confuse things by making them accept all..... offering them app or web browser download...... Then you ask are they sure they want to leave page. I give out 30-40 links a month and have to explain how to download to almost every single client. I have several photographer friends and they all say same thing."""""""""
