What is the best way to utilize Dropbox when listening to music?
I placed my music in dropbox. If I want to listen directly using dropbox, I can listen only to one song at a time I had to select an other song in a folder to listen again. Is there a possibility to listen to more songs or a complete CD?Solved115KViews21likes79Comments
Slide show feature removed
Viewing a folder of photos as a slide show is a basic feature which was previously available in Dropbox but has been removed. In my view this is a fundamental capability. I would like to send a link to others to let them view files easily without clicking/swiping on every shot and without downloading all the files. I don't get it. Slide shows worked very well before.13KViews15likes9Comments
How can I turn off the preview on the site?
Dropbox apparently introduced new functionality that forces a large preview window every time a file is selected. The vast majority of time this degrades my efficiency in using Dropbox. I can't find a way to turn it off. Please help. I'm on the website (not the mobile app) using MacOS and Safari.Solved9.5KViews12likes20Comments
Remove "Log in or sign up" Popup when downloading from a shared link
We recently chose Dropbox as the best-looking and most functional drive-sharing tool for our video production company. However, there's an annoying popup prompting clients to log in or sign up when we share links. The "Continue with download only" button is easily missed, especially by older clients, making us look unprofessional. It's frustrating that such a customizable platform has this issue. We hope for a solution soon!6.5KViews10likes33Comments

The ability to drop a file directly from a public file server to dropbox cloud storage folder. This would eliminate the need to download the file locally and then upload to sync the file. This would also help users with slow upload speeds or bandwidth caps.23KViews9likes6Comments
