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
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
So the same happens to me. I reinstalled it several times. Every time the same. It downloads almost 99 percent and then it stucks... I see that my hope the problem might be the 32-bit system is it not. Thanks! My problem computer is also a Lenovo... I will try and stopp the update system of Lenovo now.
I have the same problem, on MacOS Sierra. Was running 13.4.15. Trying 13.4.21.
