I cannot believe Dropbox does not support iPhone Live photos. Why??? I used Onedrive or Google Photos to upload my photos. and all of them supported live photos. I am always waiting for Dropbox to support it. Anyone can tell me when? I'm still using the Free plan until dropbox to support it.1.9KViews3likes2CommentsāCouldnāt save content. Check your internet connection and refresh the page." on iOS mobile app
Running iOS 17.3, just updated. When I try to share content to Dropbox, I get an error message: āCouldnāt save content. Check your internet connection and refresh the page. Thereās not internet connection issue; Iām connected. This is Dropbox-specific. If I use share to Save to Dropbox, that works fine; no error. This also seems unique to the latest iOS update, as I didnāt encounter it before that. I tried uninstalling and re-installing Dropbox, and simply re-starting. Neither helps.Solved18KViews3likes119CommentsCan we upload live photos through Camera Uploads?
I can see lots of posts asking for support for Live Photos. I feel quite cheated that I have lost the ability to see these photos. As someone else has also posted, I have little snippets of my motherās voice and movement that I have lost forever and she has passed away. Dropbox offer a photo sync service which means they need to solve for Live Photos, they have been around since 2015 so itās not a new function. Please prioritise a solution to upload and then restore Live Photos.Solved1.3KViews2likes6CommentsThe Requested Operation Couldnāt Be Completed error - Dragging & Dropping into Files app on iPad
Dragging and dropping error using the stock files app on iPad OS (13 latest) with the latest version of Dropbox installed. Each time I try to drag and drop a file using the files app I'm greeted with an error message: The requested operation couldn't be completed because the feature is not supported. Any ideas to fix it? Or is it just another Dropbox issue that won't ever get addressed like the missing favourites bug? Note, dragging and dropping works flawlessly using Google Drive, One Drive, iCloud etc. I've tried removing and redownloaded Dropbox etc.9KViews2likes26CommentsWhy are my iPhone photos imported as .heic files when uploading them to my Dropbox account?
This only happened this week, say on Tuesday (July 4th). Has never happened before. Now I cannot see these photos on the desktop version of Dropbox.

We use Dropbox to back up our photos when we travel. As we are traveling, I cull through the iOS photos on my iPad or my iPhone and delete the ones I donāt want. Sometimes I crop photos and edit them. When Iām finished, I open the Dropbox app and the camera upload starts. This has worked beautifully in the past. However, on this trip to Europe, it is uploading even the photos I deleted, and if I edited a photo, itās uploading the original and then creating another copy with a -1 in the File name. What can I do to get this to stop. Why would it be uploading deleted files too. I donāt open Dropbox until Iāve done all the editing and deleting. Thanks for any feedbackSolved1.7KViews1like7Comments
