    You have Samsung? It's great! Try this app (for free in playstore) to get solved your Audio-Problem! The Name is "You-Cut". I have had many Problems too, and all are now solved! It's the best app! You can try to open the Video with this app for example at first

Hey emarlow1, I’m here to look into that with you! 
 
  • For starters, are you trying to download the images from a shared link? Has your friend shared a folder with you by any chance? What are the steps you’re following exactly (on the web/ on our phone)? 
  • Additionally, are you getting any error messages? I’d appreciate it if you included a screenshot (omitting personal info) of what you’re seeing in your next message here, so that we check the case & send over the most relevant next steps.
I’ll be awaiting your next reply & I’m wishing you a fruitful week ahead!

Hi, Thank you for your reply. 

 

It is a shared folder, she uploaded into a dropbox folder and then shared them with me with the ability to edit. 

On my comp I do not get any error messages, I can download them fine but when I open them I only get the audio, no picture at all.

 

When I try and download them onto my phone I get nothing. I 'export' them from dropbox into a folder on my phone and when it's shown as complete I go onto that folder and there's nothing there at all. I have tried exporting it to a number of folders and nothing happens. 

 

I don't really have anything to screenshot as there is no errors.

 

Thanks!
