My Dropbox app keeps indexing files and I'm running out of hard drive space
I was running out of room on my MacBook Air (2 TB, Sonoma 14.7.8) and was told to make all Dropbox folders Online only to free up storage. It started indexing and freed up almost 1 TB so I was happy for a few minutes. Then it kept indexing and a few days later I was out of memory again. This has been going on for 6 weeks! ChaptGPT calls this a "rehydration" DropbBox Death loop. Chat said to mark the whole DropBox master folder as Online Only, then stop and restart DropbBox ap. Did not solve the problem. Possible clue: My main computer (MacBook Pro (4 TB, Sonoma 14.6.1) is doing fine except the Finder now shows that there is a 20 GB "Conflicted" copy of my DropBox files. Can anyone help me?
Red circle with a white “X” in it on file in Dropbox folder
When I put a file in the Dropbox folder I get a red circle with a white “X” in it next to the file and the file does not transfer to the Dropbox folder on my other computers? This just started happening. I am paid up through the end of February.Android sync
Synchronization does not work on Android. I download files to a folder that is only accessible from Dropbox itself. It is completely useless. I need to synchronize files to a folder in the internal storage, just like on Windows! Otherwise, other apps will never be able to access my files.
