I see no option to cancel the Backup trial I received via Seagate for my Dropbox account.
I signed up using Seagate's free 6 months trial option, but it just gives 2GB data and says they'll take $70 after trial ends. I don't want that, I want to cancel the subscription trial and delete my account. I am pretty good with technology, so I know how to cancel it but there is no option to do it in dropbox in my account. Nor am I able to delete my credit card details from the account. Kindlly help me with this. By any chance, if any money is taken out from my account, I am definitely gonna sue drop box for delibirately forcing customers to pay for something they don't want. Please help
No auto backup with Dropbox Backup for three days, why?
Hi I've got auto backup set to every 15 minutes but Dropbox hasn't backed up since 3 March. When I hover over the Dropbox icon in the notification area, it is stuck on "Indexing dbxignore (1 sec)". I'm running Windows 10 on my Laptop, Dropbox app version 219.4.4463. Things I've tried: Quitting the app. Pressing alt + H and selecting fix hardlinks and fix permissions in preferences>accounts Uninstalling / re-installing the app. What do I need to do to get back to having regular backups? Cheers.
Be able to change Dropbox backup folders names on individual accounts
Add possibility of rename Backup folders. If you have only one computer, it go fine, but if you have more than one, it ends being very confussing. Due iCloud Drive issues, I've changed all of my Macs "synchronized" Desktop and Documents to Dropbox. However, take a look to the picture: It is very difficult to guess what is what. With the possibility to rename them, I could have named "My iMac", "My MBP 13", "My MBP 15". Very easy to see what is what. (As a workaround, we can change to detail view, but could be more easy for all of us be able to change the names).
Where is the Dropbox backup folder on the mac?
Where is the dropbox backup folder on the mac? I need to back up my hard disk with Carbon Copy Cloner. But when CCC runs, it only pulls an alias file. The actual Documents folder that's now backed up with Dropbox just creates a useless "Documents" folder that has no content on my external drive. This all of the sudden became an issue when I saw my ENTIRE Documents folder was empty in Finder. I looked in Dropbox in a web browser and the files were there. But they appeared to be gone from my computer. No good!!!
How do I choose a Backup source that isn't one of the generic pre-listed opions?
When I attempt to set up a backup using TaskbarIcon|Profile|Preferences|Backup, then choose "Mange Backups" in the Windows section, all I'm presented with for backup sources are a few generic folders, like "Documents" and "Desktop", which are of no value to me for Backup, because they're being Synced already. I can't for the life of me figure out how to specify the real drive locations that I need backed up. What am I missing?
