Camera Uploads
286 TopicsPlugging in my phone to my computer uploads duplicate Camera Uploads files
Hello all, sorry if it exist already (did not find the response to this): I use my iPhone SE (2) app to automatically do the camera upload, which works fine to get the media on the dropbox. But, sometimes I plug in my phone (MacOS catalina, maybe also with Windows 10) to charge and dropbox copies all media again as dublicates. The photos were not edited in any way. Anything I can do to prevent this?26Views0likes3CommentsHow to reset my camera uploads, I tried everything
Hi! I need to force the Android app to re-upload all the photos in my gallery. I set it up so it uploads everything, not just new photos, but it will only upload new items. I believe it recognizes older pics as "already uploaded" and I don't know how to reset this. I have already: -re-installed the app -deleted the cache memory -deleted all files in the Dropbox camera upload folder -restarted the device -even tried from a new device with a different SD card but with the same files in it Still, Dropbox will only upload new files. I also tried manually uploading but due to the fíes being cover 1500, the app never stops processing the files and never uploads anything. I'm on Android 12 and no other apps are set toSolved7.2KViews1like91CommentsImpossible de transférer car l'espace de stockage est plein. Ce qui est Faux !

I got a new Galaxy S25+ phone. Dropbox is & has been installed on both. I've never had an issue transferring photos from my phone to Dropbox on my laptop before. On my S25+. It shows the photos in a Dropbox file. But won't transfer or sync to laptop. Frustrating!Solved61Views0likes15CommentsCan I retain the original name of the file if it's uploaded through Camera Uploads?
I noticed that the file name for camera uploads will be automatically changed. Original file name: 20240330-164639 When uploaded to dropbox: 2024-03-30 16.46.39. Is there anyway to retain the original naming?153Views0likes3CommentsWhere is the camera uploads setting to change .heic to .jpg on iOS?
I have been using Dropbox for a long time. It worked I never had to change anything from my initial setup. On going from Windows 10 to 11 my camera uploads changed from .jpg to .heic. Most of my use for Dropbox is uploading photos from my iPhone. I have searched through the setting menus on the Desktop App, the taskbar as Dropbox is always open and the web. I can't find the thing. Where is this camera setting?51Views0likes10CommentsBoost your Photography Game with Dropbox in 2025

I've used DB for over a decade, so I know what I am doing. With each new phone, I install db and turn on camera uploads. From then on, every pic or vid I take, the file is first clouded and is then downloaded to each computer on which I have the db app installed. One day recently, however, it just stopped. I have plenty of storage in/on both my db account and on the HDDs on my computers. Can someone please let me know what is going on. Thank you very much!!!Solved60Views0likes11CommentsCan I upload whole albums and preserve the names?
Hi! I recently switched to iPhone and was unable to transfer photos from my Android to my new phone, hence why I’m here. I need a good place to store all my photos so that they are easily accessible on all devices. I have my photos VERY organized on my Android and was wondering if I could transfer them to Dropbox and KEEP THEM IN THE ALBUMS they are currently in… It seems they are simply coming over one by one out of the albums. This is extremely frustrating. Especially because I’m dealing with iPhones idiotic idea of phone storage (you move a photo to an album and it STAYS in the camera roll!! It just becomes a copy-I don’t want it in 2 places. I need it organized and in ONE. Anyway…) Any way to do this?480Views1like2Comments
