Dropbox StaffHi robncarin, thanks for messaging the Community.
After a recent change, backups created using the Dropbox Backup feature are no longer visible in the Dropbox mobile app, and it isn't possible to re-enable this option.
If you have any further queries, feel free to message back.
This is complete and utter non-sense to disable this feature. This is the only reason I pay for Dropbox. I need to be able to access my files on my Mac while I am out and about on my iPhone and iPad. Why in the world would you disable this feature and not have the ability to re-enable it? Is there any update as to if this function will be available again? I just renewed my plan for the year a couple weeks ago and now I cannot even use Dropbox how I would like. I am very disappointed in this breakdown and would like to cancel if this feature will no longer be available in the future. Such an oversight...
- I have tried everything to impress upon Dropbox to bring that feature back to no success there is no rhyme or reason why they took it away.
Certainly cannot be storage or bandwidth They don’t have any hard space bandwidth is not issue. I don’t get it. Nobody does. These people operate a different universe, big Tech arrogance.
My workaround:
The only file that’s available is the documents file and important stuff from my desktop I need I proceeded to the dropbox file on my Mac called my files to Dropbox and copy and pasted important information in that file it’ll show up on my mobile phone . A Workaround. I wish there was other companies that I could get besides Dropbox. I am so fed up with these people.So you are just manually pasting items into a folder in your dropbox account? Makes it difficult to always go back in and remember to back up things manually. I reference client work often and have to go back into files all the time. Terrible to have a workaround when there was a feature that was previously working well.
