Re: Dropbox Not Allowing Online Only Files

Dropbox Not Allowing Online Only Files

Hi—

Our design team is having issues with Dropbox today. All of our files are syncing at once and we are unable to make files "Online-Only".

 

Is anyone else having this issue, and is there a fix?

 

Thanks!

Lindsay

Thank you, I will do that tomorrow. But first, a question.

 

I can make individual files "off line", but in the past I could do a whole folder at once. Is that no longer an option?

 

thanks  - Laura

Hi @gibbonsl, it's still possible to mark entire folders as offline, so that they have the green tick on them.
