This is a tough one. We have Dropbox syncing our server files and access those via mapped network drives on workstations. All files stored locally. The problem is images stored on the server in the Dropbox folder will not preview in the windows explorer preview pane. I create a share outside of Dropbox and boom it works. The thing is PDF, DOCX & XLSX preview fine. It's just images (JPG, PNG, BMP, TIFF). Yeah Dropbox doesn't support server OS ok. Server is 2022. We have had this setup since Server 2012 and has been working great for over a decade. Thinking of moving onto something else, no not SharePoint already tried that. We have heaps of data and SharePoint is too expensive. Maybe a NAS. If anyone can think of something I haven't tried that would be awesome. Must be a permissions issue somewhere.120Views0likes4CommentsLarger folder refuse to become available offline on my PC.
Hi all, I have a Dropbox Plus account and wish to save files for offline access. I can do this by toggling Offline Access in Preferences with some folders but for the larger folders Dropbox refuses to let the files download and all is only available online. There is plenty of storage on my PC or external drives that I have tried with. Does Dropbox have a limit on folder size that it will sync like this? Any tips as to what I am doing wrong? /steve140Views0likes4Comments"File cannot be accessed by the system" error message on my Windows device.
I have a paid account from Dropbox Plus. When I attempt to access some files in Dropbox, I get the File Cannot be Accessed by the System error. This happens with all of my jpg and other photo files. I have been able to access all of these files in the past. It's only since I moved to Windows 11 that this has started. Any help is appreciatedSolved8.7KViews0likes8CommentsWhat does the brown box icon next to my Dropbox files mean on Windows?
I have searched the relevant help topics without finding an explanation on the "brown box" icon that appears on files in my Dropbox folder. See the attached file "Dropbox_Meaning of Icon_BrownBox.pdf" (below).2.6KViews0likes3CommentsI can't scroll through photos anymore on Windows?
I used to be able to: open my dropbox folder, click on a folder with pictures, double click a picture to have it appear full-size on my screen, then scroll through the rest of the pictures in that folder by hitting the cursor keys. Now, since the update, sometimes I can't scroll at all, or when I can, it will show pictures that have been moved to other folders, but not the current pictures that are in the current folder. This is a serious problem for me because I am constantly scrolling through new photos that we use for marketing.
