Videos aren't uploading automatically from my iPhone?
Hi. Photo's do upload from my iPhone, the videos won't.
( sync between the iOS Photo App and the Dropbox App )
The app says:
"Camera Upload - Video Uploads are Off"
What could be the cause and how to fix it?
Thanks :-)

That you've turned off video upload as the message says?
Go to the settings menu of the App and turn it back on.
Enable camera / video uploads
- Open the Dropbox app.
- Tap Recents.
- Tap the gear icon at the top of the screen.
- Tap Camera Upload
- On the next screen, toggle the Camera / Video Upload option on or off.

There is no "Camera Upload" in Settings.

Same message as above. Nothing is in the settings to enable video upload on my iPad using v 8.2.2.

Thanks I had the same issue and spent a good while trying to fix it... This solution worked perfectly.

Under Settings:
It appears there's no Upload Videos setting but there is: Tap on "Camera Upload" and there will be an Upload Videos option that you switch on :)

I am using an iPhone SE and have the same issue. No setting to turn on "Video upload" or "Camera Upload."

Perfect, that did the trick! Thanks Michael! :)

Thanks Michael - a really constructive, helpful, unpatronising and best of all CORRECT solution!
