Dropbox shared folder notifications
Hi everyone, Is there any way to get notified on changes made to a shared folder, because I don't get notified when another person changes stuff to my shared folder. Thank you
You can enable desktop notifications for all changes in your Dropbox within Preferences of the Dropbox client.

Hello, thank you for your answer.
Well I made sure it's checked but still, I'm not notified.

- RichThese would be desktop notifications, and depending on your operating system, they may not be persistent. That means if you're not at your computer to see the notification arrive, you would miss it. That's how it is on Windows 7. On Windows 10, if you have notifications enabled, the notifications will persist in the Action Center. I'm not familiar with how they work on Mac.
