Uploading photos from phone

[Mie I.]

I basically got Dropbox in order to move my enormous collection of pictures and videos from my iPhone to somewhere else...The transfer went fine for a while, but then it has stopped and I keep seeing a message saying "waiting to upload". I have quit the application and relaunched, which does nothing. I have even upgraded Dropbox, as I suspect I will need the extra space...

There is still over 400 pictures which are "waiting to upload" plus a few videos. And did I mention I started this process 13th of December...?

I have the same problem on my Android over the last week or so. After trying everything on the net, I accepted the Dropbox offer to "Contact Us" and I duly filled out their form and submitted it. What I got in reply was an automated message telling me to go to the pages I had already visited, without success. This is pretty poor customer service from Dropbox.

I had the same problem. Turned wifi off and on again and everything uploaded fine.

Just tried that again. Doesn't work.

I have the same issue. I'm on Wifi, but it is "waiting to upload".

I can't even believe this is still a problem. Why should we be forced to use cellular data connections to upload our photos? Much longer and I will have to look for another service - this is ridiculous

I was dealing with this for a few weeks now, and I just simply 'Signed Out' of Dropbox on my phone and logged back in.  Things started to load without a problem.  who knows? but thought I'd share

What April K. said worked for me.

Enabling auto upload on my phone worked for my monumental transfer of honeymoon photos. I deleted the album I started to make space for the incoming waves of duplicates ;( Also, just received a phone notification that the upload had stopped when my phone auto-locked. I set my phone to "never" auto-lock and photos are coming in steadily now.

April K Thank you, signed out and back in and it is uploading on my iphone again!

The layout on the dropbox app changed when I signed out and signed back in, maybe it was stuck in an old version of dropbox.
