Dropbox Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • kyzerpoza Alan (@kyzerpoza) reported

    @CtrlAltJeff @VoterToni @Juxtaporter They were shared via Dropbox which does not compress the file unless requested, also I’m an art director that transfers files from iPhone, android, OSX and Windows and compression hasn’t been an issue since iOS 9. This was on purpose!

  • radicalbarks Joshua McNabintosh (@radicalbarks) reported

    @ElijahSchaffer @Dropbox I really don't feel like people should be pushing specific commercial services when this sort of thing could be served just as easily by an FTP server.

  • garymic Stosh of the Oppressed tweet (@garymic) reported

    @AaronFurq @ElectionWiz @RekietaMedia Are you kidding? They way the Prosecution has handled this. I wouldn't be surprised if they've broken the chain of evidence on their own dropbox account.

  • alexkagin Alex Kagin (@alexkagin) reported

    Clicked 'Dropbox' in trending thinking maybe there was takeout news and now realize this is another thing $TWTR needs to fix. @Twitter let's keep trending news SFW please.

  • OUDNAbloodline Mark (@OUDNAbloodline) reported

    @RekietaMedia After the comment about the defense not having iPhones, he set himself up, knowing that there would be a compression issue. And he still decided to send it via text instead of Dropbox. The only item sent via text... How is this going unnoticed?

  • PopupHeadlight PopupHeadlight (@PopupHeadlight) reported

    @RekietaMedia That being said, I'm aware it's Dropbox or air airdrop, but the issue may or may not be something to fairly consider.

  • tracally66 We the People....T..🇺🇸🗽🇺🇸 (@tracally66) reported

    @JackPosobiec I'm a printer and graphic designer send files via email will change name and render it down to make it emailable What moron emails videos They will always compress to lower res Dropbox is the only way Mistrial with prejudice

  • codebanditDFS Life is a Journey (@codebanditDFS) reported

    @JackPosobiec Wait in the transcript. The defense said they got it from Dropbox. If the file is still in the Dropbox someone can go check from a PC and rule out the phone issue.

  • pksucks Patric King (@pksucks) reported

    @_EricHu omg last december I had to simultaneously move 15 clients from a host who was closing to a new one didn’t realize Dropbox would overheat the mac & burn my house down now I use a script that quietly turns Dropbox sync off whenever I open MAMP or Transmit

  • sglassmeyer Sarah Glassmeyer (@sglassmeyer) reported

    <denied access to dropbox document> Me: well, i guess I'm fired. (For some reason it switched my login to my personal account)

  • 3kids3years_ 3kids3years_ (@3kids3years_) reported

    @JackPosobiec I used to use Dropbox to send videos for my job. The recipients often received a poorer quality and glitchier video than I uploaded. Switched to Box and no more issues. Dropbox has issues.

  • seewen13 Seewen (@seewen13) reported

    @NickSahagun @RekietaMedia Original is 11.2Mb . The one given to the defense is 3.6MB. Both could be sent by e-mail, no problem. (And of course, Dropbox & co could be used even if size was a problem. Or zipped in multiple files by mail).

  • dysinger O_O (@dysinger) reported

    lol. Kraus (prosecution) has the "Handbrake" app clearly shown on his desktop during the court videos of his laptop. It was a total accident that the defense only saw a grainy compressed video. A "glitch." Everybody lies. Especially the state. #Dropbox #KyleRittenhouseTrial

  • JohnFra67450537 Judi Lake (@JohnFra67450537) reported

    @jb99999a @JackPosobiec I'm only speaking from experience - For my business I relied on Dropbox heavily and found it to be very good - imo it was wetransfer that had problems

  • DiscoJeedai 🇺🇸 The Great and Powerful DOZ™ 🇺🇸 (@DiscoJeedai) reported

    @ElijahSchaffer @Dropbox Imagine all the trouble they could have saved by using a thumb drive.......

  • AstralTX Astral Scott (@AstralTX) reported

    @JackPosobiec Because the video was directly sent from the detective? The evidence from the state crime lab uses Dropbox. Either way, it's much Ado about nothing. They had the evidence since the 5th and only bring the issue up now?

  • BluesHoxton Hoxton 'Happy Fookin' Christmas' Blues (@BluesHoxton) reported

    @Mephitus_Skunk @justsomeguycc The problem is Dropbox could be issued a subpoena on your information and may or may not tell you it's been subpoenaed. They also keep copies of your data, even after it's been deleted. There was a CLE my boss went to on this and she told the firm to stop using the service.

  • hncynic hncynic bot (@hncynic) reported

    Title: TPM Sniffing 💬: Can the sendmail server tell me it's the same for gmail and dropbox? I've never heard of TMD, and it doesn't seem to be on the list.... :-(

  • Jenna_Mint Jenna (@Jenna_Mint) reported

    @JackPosobiec @RekietaMedia Lunchbox is lying. He is trying to say that when sending by email it condenses and renames. Then by Dropbox/Air drop or thumb drive the process is lossless. Not True. Email does not rename. If the email server has a size limit it won't send it. "Someone" renamed/compressed it.

  • tehuti88 Tehuti (@tehuti88) reported

    *sees "Dropbox" trending* OHMYGOD IS IT DOWN?!? *sees reason for trending* Wut.

  • BeingOwlsome Sim Ah (@BeingOwlsome) reported

    The Kyle Rittenhouse Trial should literally go down in history like it should be taught in law school on How-Not-To-Act-In-A-Courtroom 🤦 Dropbox!!

  • LucasRGomes0 Lucas Ribeiro Gomes ✠ 🇵🇹 (@LucasRGomes0) reported

    @s5434467 @artifx_SS @TPostMillennial All evidence should be on a shared FTP server or at the very least a shared dropbox. 8 different data transfer methods is just asking for miscommunications and multiple versions of the same evidence. From a technical perspective this is shocking.

  • LauriLinnea Lauri Mueller (@LauriLinnea) reported

    @MarylouCulkar6 @TwoQuoque @KristenBarbar No. All the evidence EXCEPT that video was exchanged via Dropbox, a file-sharing service that keeps track of file history and has secure access features. The movie at issue was emailed separately via the prosecutor’s personal Gmail account. For no good reason. Different filename

  • gbyvr_ gaby 🐉 (@gbyvr_) reported

    @SickOfCommies didn’t they have an issue earlier in the case with somebody’s dropbox being full? maybe it was saved with lower res to save space, idk

  • hdvillaf villaf (@hdvillaf) reported

    ey @DropboxSupport I find the web platform very slow. Any problems up there?

  • rbird5541 rbird5541 (@rbird5541) reported

    @BggMinty @GuntherEagleman They did know, most states use dropbox with protected passwords for all evidence for any trial. For them to say it's not their problem if they are not knowledgeable in operating IPhones or files in computers.

  • JayViperTV JayViper (@JayViperTV) reported

    @ltwon71 @JackPosobiec Yup! I use it when there's audio desync issues but when you do this it will absolutely affect quality and to get it to max quality means a massive file size which isn't what they did if they were moving it around on a phone. They not heard of Dropbox?

  • MarylouCulkar6 Marylou Culkar (@MarylouCulkar6) reported

    @TwoQuoque @KristenBarbar Because the defense screwed up isn’t the Prosecutor’s problem. The Defense was sent the video. The Defense had an Android so the Prosecutor couldn’t send by phone. He mailed it by Dropbox I believe it’s called.

  • Brewsterinblack Blackbeard (@Brewsterinblack) reported

    @legalbytesmedia quick question about the use of dropbox for digital evidence. Why not purchase a 300gb thumb drive or external hard drive and use an encoded password for evidence transfer? Why use a third part company with limited storage requiring upload and download issues?

  • RobinsonT95 Tyler R (@RobinsonT95) reported

    @TheRealRobManzo @Breaking911 Exactly. Send it via Dropbox and this problem would’ve never existed.
