How can you select all files using the Dropbox site?
I can't figure out why the developers of dropbox have to over-complicate simple things like "selecting all files". I finally found directions how to do it and it's just plain stupid and doesn't alway...
It's CTRL, not Shift, and it still works. Alternatively, you can check the box at the top of the file list (hover your cursor there for it to appear).

I've called dropbox, tried several browsers (chrome, firefox, safari) but no boxes appear to check so I have to go to my friends house and borrow his computer... no other way to do this. DROPBOX SUCKS I keep telling my boss to move to a better system.
- RichIf it works on your friend's computer, then the problem is likely something on your computer. Possibly an add-on or extension that you're running in your browsers. The ability to select all files works just fine, as seen in the screenshots above.
Also note that Dropbox only provides phone support for Dropbox Business accounts. If you have a personal account and try to call Dropbox, you won't be able get through. There is a required PIN that's found in the admin console of Business accounts that include phone support. If you Googled for a Dropbox phone number, the numbers you'll find are mostly all scammers.
