Re: Dropbox?



Nate,

Nothing in the Deleted Files log, and Folder history shows only uploads.

HOWEVER, looking closely at the Dropbox home page I spotted a "Camera Uploads" folder. I don't recall seeing this before, but I could be wrong. I don't visit the web site very often, and it's possible they did a total makeover since the last time. At any rate, that folder contains all of the hundreds of images I was looking for.

Problem solved. :-)

In the past if too much was deleted Dropbox has actually sent an email warning that something bad might be accidentally happening.  For example, 1.5 years ago, I got an email,

"You recently deleted 5934 files from your Dropbox account. If you want these files back, you can still restore them until 2/27/2019. After that, they’ll be permanently deleted."

If it’s not too late you can, _Show deleted files_,

And, _Folder history_, might give you a hint as to when/what happened,

Has anyone checked their personal Dropbox lately? I just did and found
everything is gone. I've used Dropbox without any problems for several
years. This is a jolt.

I have to use Dropbox as an intermediary between my cell phone (camera
& gallery) and this e-mail account. If someone wants me to send a
picture, I have to upload it to dropbox, then download it to my Linux
box before I can attach it to an Evolution e-mail.
