I have run out of space on iPhone due to excessive photos. I want to move my photos to dropbox. Photos are on iCloud. What steps do I take to move the photos from my iCloud account to my dropbox account? Both are on the cloud. The iCloud photos are accessible on my macbook. I tried dragging and dropping and that didnât work. I donât have the dropbox app on macbook. Not sure I have the space for it. Thank you!

I use Dropbox on my computer to backup my work files which include my 3D renders that consist in a png sequence (one image per frame at 30 or 60fps), so I have thousands of png images related to renders but dropbox automatically adds them to the camera uploads in my phone app which is extremely annoying because I need to scroll down thousands of images to see my actual photos... if I delete them it deletes my render backup as well, it does the same thing for textures, which makes my photo roll unusable.197Views0likes8CommentsDropbox still incredibly slow on Verizon Fios
For the last ten years, as described in Really Slow Upload...only Dropbox | The Dropbox Community and https://www.reddit.com/r/dropbox/comments/6n74lu/dropbox_slow_on_fios_gigabit_connection/ Dropbox has been incredibly slow on Fios - as in, less than 5 Mbps. If I simply set a SOCKS5 proxy in the Dropbox preferences so my connection goes through some other host instead of directly to Dropbox - then I get 100+ Mbps. This is not about the bandwidth limit setting. If I take my computer to a neighbor's house that is on Xfinity, it works fine. If I stay at home, but route the connection using SOCKS5 through someone else's non-Fios host first, it works fine. The problem is only if the connection is direct via Fios. This problem has been going on for more than a decade, for a majority of people on Fios, at least in the northeast US. How can this get fixed? There is clearly a peering issue somewhere.97Views0likes9CommentsBest way to collect client uploads in one Dropbox folder and sort by client and date
Iâm looking for some guidance on the best way to set up a streamlined upload flow for multiple clients. Goal Iâd like to have a single upload point (for example, one shared link or form) that allows multiple clients to upload files without logging in. Ideally, when they upload: They provide their email address or name Dropbox automatically routes those files into a folder structure like: Client Name (or email) â Submission date â Uploaded files So, over time Iâd end up with something like /Client A/email@clienta.com/2025-11-14/âŠfiles /Client B/email@clientb.com/2025-11-20/âŠfiles etc. Questions Is there a native Dropbox feature (e.g. File Requests or similar) that can: accept uploads from multiple people via one URL, and also capture who uploaded what in a way that could be used to organise files per client? If not fully possible natively, whatâs the best-practice approach people have used? Multiple File Requests? Dropbox + a form tool (Typeform, Jotform, etc.) + Zapier/Make to create folders and move files based on email address? Any recommended automations / templates that already do this? Iâm comfortable using third-party automation tools if needed, but Iâd love to understand whatâs realistically achievable within Dropbox first, and what the most robust setup would be.85Views0likes3CommentsCan't upload large video from iphone as I'm getting an error
My pictures on my iphone are automatically uploading to dropbox, but my videos aren't even though I have "upload videos" turned on. I've successfully uploaded smaller videos about 2 min 15 sec, but when I try to upload a 3.5 min video, it tells me "Can't upload file. There was a problem uploading [file name]. Please try again." I'm connected to wifi. Is there any other way for me to get it from my phone to dropbox on my computer?110Views0likes6CommentsToday's date is added to the filenames of my photos, when I upload them via the iOS mobile app.
I'm going into the Dropbox app on iPhone and uploading photos. The photos file names are uploading with today's date. How can I get it to upload with the date the photo was captured?108Views0likes3CommentsI can't save my receipts as PDFs to the iOS mobile app, only as a URL.
I like to save my receipts on iPhone for example from a receipt from Square that opens up in Safari. Previously I would be able to choose "Save to Dropbox" and it would save a PDF of the receipt. But now Dropbox only gives the option to save a ".url" which just saves a url link to the receipt on Dropbox. Deleted and Reinstalled Dropbox App. Didn't fix it. Anyone have any suggestions? iPhone 12 - iOS 18.7 / Dropbox App 448.2.251Views0likes2CommentsI can't find the files I'm trying to attach to an email, but they are on the site.
Question or Issue I am having trouble finding and attaching files uploaded to my Dropbox account over the past couple of months. When I log onto Dropbox directly using my web browser I can find the files, and see they they were uploaded. However, when I am attempting to attach these files to an email or through another app, the files are not visable to attach.49Views0likes2CommentsHaving notes available to each file uploaded to the account.
As a content creator, I frequently collect video clips and photos to demonstrate examples of my discussions. However it may be weeks, or even several months before I am ready to use those files. There is no way for me to remember the source, the circumstances, the story and/or details around those files. Rather than creating very lengthy names for these items to describe them, I'd love a way to add a note when they are saved. It would be very helpful to also have a note feature available for my subfolders for the same reason. Thanks for listening!455Views0likes4Comments
