Desktop app is syncing some files forever
Hi All,
A week or so ago dropbox got stuck syncing. Says syncing 42 files, forever. Some files are being synced, but others arent. I reinstalled software, I relinked the account. Nothing has wo...
- 13.4.21 seems to have worked for me on Win 7. The DropBox support people did respond and we're asking questions but since it seems to be working now I'm happy.
- I think I found the problem on my machine. But there must be a bug. The problem always starts when I try to rename a file. This copying and deleting the file in one stroke does not work on my Windows 10 32-bit computer. Best wishes
The same problem. We have serious problems with that. It is necessary to solve the problem quickly.
May I ask, is it the same like with my computers that the problem appears only on Windows 32-bit systems?
- I am experiencing this on a 64 bit Windows 7 system.
- Thank you for the information. Do you ask the support for help, too. They wait with the answer with me... I am getting crazy with this problem. I am starting to think changing the system...
I use Dropbox to synchronise files on two computers while delevoping embedded firmware and it works brilliantly. However, I have just added a third computer and it repeatedly gets stuck syncing. If I unlink it then re-link it first says it is syncing 40,000+ files. The number gradually reduces until around 15 (different each time I repeat), then stops. The Setting menu says it is indexing 4 files. If I modify a file on one of the other computers the number will increase, but never decreases.
No problems with the other computers. All run Windows 10 64-bit. The new computer is a Lenovo Yoga 700
