GoodNotes 5 backup
I have been backing up my GoodNotes files to dropbox for years. It was a simple matter of selecting backup data on GoodNotes (iPad Pro) and then indicating which folder in Dropbox to sync the data. ...

Recently when I follow this same routine I get a message "Can't save backup from here. Open the Dropbox app to save items bigger than 150 MB".
...Hi Rick19744,
Send a warn to the supplier of your application, that emits above message. The Dropbox API support no more than 150MB content transfer on one step. For bigger files, they have to be transmitted in sessions, for every file on steps transferring no more than 150MB each. For a 450MB file, least 3 steps have to be used for upload, for example. You can't do anything yourself, but ask the supplier to update its software. As an alternative you can use the Dropbox application for upload bigger files, as suggested, or use a web session.
Hope this clarifies matter.
Dropbox, please don't call this one solved. It wasn't solved, from what I've read.

Hi suevanh,
What would you accept as solved? 🤔 The forum here is for Dropbox related things (Dropbox applications, Dropbox API, etc.). In the OP, trouble is NOT related to any of them and that was clarified. If you have problem with some third party app, ask its supplier for a solution (you cannot receive such here); if no, ask the actual question.
