Dropbox Download Troubleshooting Tips
Dropbox download troubleshooting tips that may help overcome a problematic download:
- Update your browser and computer and make sure you have sufficient storage space for the files you are going to download.
- Use a direct internet connection to ensure a constant download to avoid a timeout failure over wireless or cellular connection.
- Download your files to a laptop or desktop computer rather than a mobile device.
- Use incognito browser mode (clear from cookies).
- Try a different browser. Please note, many people have reported problems downloading large files with Safari.

Once Downloaded, Backup, Backup, Backup!
Once you have your project files downloaded, be sure to copy the files to another form of external media, like a USB drive, for safe keeping. It’s best to have at least 3 copies of your files. One copy for daily use, another copy on a separate device as a backup, and another copy stored at an off-site location. It’s also wise to use encryption on your external media before storing the media off-site.
