Almost impossible to login due to "games" captcha
Hi everyone! I have a problem I hope you can help me resolve. I use my Dropbox free acount to move files from my phone to the office computer. They are personal things, so I can't install the app or login out of a private browser session. I have two-factors autentication active. Dropbox makes me lose a lot of time in stupid games before login to prove I'm human. I'm not talking about reCAPTCHA here, but real games where you move people to the right chair and other crap like that. How can I avoid this? It's ridicolous, if I wanted to play I will have open an account to a game site, not to personal cloudspace.
Really difficult captcha and it takes too long for me to login
I give up!! I have spent about 15 mins and several attempts each taking about 20 clicks to complete this capcha. I fail every time. And I don't understand why. Perhaps only a 'bot' can pass it. Downright ridiculous. PLEASE PLEASE go back to something sensible and not these awful so called puzzles
#Can tags be more useful?
I'm an Evernote user from the early days. Tagging items has been something I'm accustomed to for a long time. I'm bummed that Dropbox isn't taking full advantage of these. They are not easy to get to in the web interface at all. I count at least 3 clicks, and none of those clicks are "Tag..." Once something is tagged... am I just missing something? It's not evident at all. They aren't distinguished in a "bubble" or "block", color coded, and no option exists in the sidebar. I also cannot add the tags to my visible column set (also really lacking area). The only place I've discovered that tags actually exists in the web interface is under the search bar - but not at all where I would expect to see them in the application.Can the "Create" button be "sticky" on a page scroll in the web interface?
Thank you to the Dropbox team who updated the web interface to partially collapse the top menu bar when you start to scroll down using the web interface! That was very much needed and has greatly helped with space! New problem: after you scroll, the only "sticky" button at the top, next to the search bar, is Upload. This is great if you're uploading. Not great if you need to create something; you then have to scroll back up to the very top. Can you guys please add the Create button next to the upload one up top so it's always accessible?I can't add a third signer when sending a request via the Signatures tab.
Hi, I have the same problem and have tried with a different browser and even incognito mode on my current one. When I try to enter a third signer/receiver of a PDF-file which I want to be signed - a message appears that only two signers is possible. I have done this hundreds of times and have never had the above problem. Thanks in advance.
Newly made embedded mp3s won't play, they are grayed out.
I have a website where I share recordings of my piano playing with family/friends. I use blogspot to link to the audio files that are in a public folder on Dropbox. I have used the same html for 12 years, but suddenly the copied links from Dropbox won't work embedded - the controls are greyed out. I've spent 2 hrs trouble shooting. The old links still work. But the new links won't. I've tried different browsers, my phone, etc. I can't figure it out. I would be so grateful if anyone could help me. my website is: [link removed as per Community Guidelines] this a link directly to the audio file: [removed as per Community Guidelines] If you try the newest entry posted today you can see the one that doesn't work. Try any other one and it will.I can no longer log in because of the new "games" captcha
I have been using the Dropbox free account for several years now. However, I am currently no longer able to log in to the site because the login puzzle is not working. This cost me a total of 30 minutes of my time. With the best will in the world, I can't afford this waste of time. I will therefore refrain from using Dropbox in the future if no solution is found.
