How can I only upload the photos from my phone and not my computer to Dropbox?
Hello All,
I've noticed that (for awhile now) after I enabled the "Turn on camera uploads" on my iphone, whenever I had the iOS Dropbox App open, it not only uploaded all the photos in the ipho...
I checked, all my macbooks that are connected, have the backup disabled.
As far as my iphone goes, this is what it is...
I created those symlinks myself years ago, the idea was that I will have access to the same files from different macs, and it worked, so from then on, I will have the same files/synced via symlink in my Desktop, Download folders, amongst other folders, and I really love it!
here's a screen shot after clicking the link you suggested, and I even went into the "manage backups" just to give you an idea.
thanks for all your help and being so patient!

Well, Dropbox doesn't really support symlinks in this manner, and it should be disabled in fact, though it does depend on how they're created.
Regarding the issue you're experiencing, it could be related to the symlinks somehow, though we wouldn't be able to see what is causing this.
