Thank you so much
DropBox <3

i heard htc sense 4.0 smartphones will be offering a 50gb. dropbox acc. so we have to wait a little more then we can change our device ids to newer htc devices & might get 50gb. acc.
similarly we got 50gb. box accounts

No body tried this?
I just put some some mp4 files in my DCIM folder and made Dropbox to autoupload. Got 5 GB more free space in my account.

it worked for me too
just record a 30-35 min video @ max resolution and quality (or whatever it takes for your phone/camera to generate a 4gb file) and let dropbox upload it using the "camera upload" function -> 5gb of space free!

Sony Ericsson had an offer
I got 50 gigs for lifetime, free

Thanks for this Bud!
I also have the Box free upgrade... My only problem with Box is it doesnt have a Sync installer for Personal accounts. You have to upgrade to business...this means that you have to access the files using a web browser... It fine with me but my wife(who is not that computer savvy) is having a hard time with it.
For me, Dropbox is still the best!

[INFO] Free Box.net 50GB account with HP Touchpad

Hey guys!
As i'm sure most of you are aware you can get a 50GB free box account with your touchpad. But you can easily create MULTIPLE accounts by simply logging out in the app and creating a new account. Then you have 100GB free over 2 accounts!
You can add both or more box accounts to your touchpad accounts anyway
Just thought I'd share
Is there any kind of desktop sync software, like what Dropbox gives you? If not, maybe I'll just use Box as long-term storage for things I'm not using regularly. Clever idea about the multiple accounts by the way

Box.net don't provide one without changing your subscription to a paid one. But software such as Gladinet will allow you to mount it as a drive in windows. You can also add multiple accounts too

If you are running Windows, you can use WebFolders. It doesn't give you sync, but you can drag & drop files in and out of box.net with explorer. Just google 'box.net webfolders'.

I tried that, but couldn't get it to work. It connected but wouldn't allow me to upload anything!
Still Gladinet works perfectly and is free
It says with the free edition of Gladinet that you only get 1000 file transfers per task...Any idea what this means??

From what I gather it means you can't say paste more than 1000 things at once. I have uploaded 30GB of photos in a batch without any problems
I uploaded about 2GB of photos to box.net thinking that I can look at them on the TP. However, when I go to look at them on the TP's box.net, it is so slow to the point where I can't scroll the pictures filename list. And there is no preview or miniturized picture icon so you know what you are looking at (like on a PC). To see the picture you have to click each filename and wait for the whole file to download. The process is painfully slow. Guess it's only good for "parking" your files.
Also there is a filesize limit of 25MG unless you pay. This makes it all a bit of a waste of time for me, even Microsoft Skydrive is better (although has no app).

Did you mean 25MB? If it was 25GB that would be awesome lol. But if you did mean 25MB, then you are wrong, on 50GB accounts, the filesize limit is 1GB per file, trust me I've already tested this and it works

<blush> yes I meant 25MB. I created a box.net account on my PC before my touchpad arrived then logged into it on my Touchpad & assumed that this would upgrade my account. Then I tried to upload a couple of video files from my PC but got an error message about the 25MB size limit. My account settings show a 50GB capacity. Where am I going wrong?
PS their website states:
The free personal account has a file size limit of 25 megabytes. Please note that you can fill your 5 gigabytes of space with as many files as will fit, but no one file may exceed 25 megabytes. To remove this restriction, you may upgrade to a paid account which will allow you to upload files as large as one gigabyte.

That is really odd, I've successfully uploaded files that are nearly 100MB in size with no problems, I haven't had the patience to do any movies etc yet. I would try creating a brand new account on your touchpad and see if that still has problems. Maybe there is an issue converting your current account.
I'll ss when I get to work, but my max filesize was 1gb.
Nope, I created a new account directly from the TP after uninstalling & reinstalling the app, still get the same error message.

I'm doing a test with a much bigger file right now, and so far it is working successfully and has already surpassed 25mb.
Can you confirm that you have created the new account from the BOX.NET application which was downloaded from the HP App Store?

is there really no way to listen to music i uploaded to box.net without having to download each file......even using the browser doesnt work, this sux
edit...found out how to do it...share your folder, logout, then hit the url to your folder then you can play files through the browser....for some reason if u login it wont let you play in browser

Hey All,
Just wanted to update this thread to say that a few people on PreCentral had a very similar problem to the OP, and it seems that BOX.NET has changed it's terms for newer registered users.
It seems that if you register now, you get put on a 'LITE 5GB' account, this means that while you still have your 50GB, you can only upload up to 100MB per file.
Those that have the 1GB files size limit should have accounts called 'Personal +50GB'
You can check this by logging into BOX.NET, then going into My Account, then Settings, and scrolling all the way to the bottom of the screen. Would be curious to know what it says for you guys. Hope this helps!
Account type: Lite (5GB)
Max file size: 100 MB
edit:
i also noticed you can't directly link you image unless you upgrade

Dropbox for Android

I have dropbox on my Phone and GT7510.
On my computer, i can make a folder that automatically uploads its contents to my Dropbox. Is there a way to make a folder like this on my phone and or tab? Or do I have to upload files one by one?
I see on the Market a paid app called "Sync Folder with Dropbox". Is this the app I need or is there a free way within the Dropbox app?

Dropbox for Android has some significant limitations in which folders you can and cannot synchronize. RealSync gives you much more control. I like it much better. I don't have any experience with the other app, so I cannot speak to it.

One question though.
Can we revoke the access we gave to our Twitter and Facebook accounts after the free space got added? If we do so, will we lose the extra space we got?

Worked for me.
I tossed a bunch of jpeg images and a little over 4 gigs of mp4 video files into a folder within DCIM folder on an SD card and let dropbox sync it via their new autosync feature. Worked like a charm.

Dropbox beta - 5 gigs free on top of the initial 2 gigs

So just a heads up for everyone that uses dropbox or wants to start using dropbox, they are offering you up to 5 free gigs for using their new automatic camera upload feature on their beta software. The link for the desktop version of dropbox: http://forums.dropbox.com/topic.php?id=53104&replies=718
I believe they just came out with an android app as well where you can also get 5 free gigs (combined total though not 5 from desktop and 5 from android)
All you have to do is have some sort of external hard drive or sd card and have some .jpg files on there. You get 500 free megs for every 500 you upload for a max of 5 gigs.
Some tips:
1) If you already have a dropbox account with pictures of any file on there, you can just copy them from your dropbox folder to the sd card (CHANGE ANY NON-JPG EXTENSIONS TO JPG). That way when dropbox goes to find pictures and starts uploading, you will actually be syncing the files and not uploading (since those files are already in your account/cloud). You'll still get the 5 gigs as long as you let dropbox automatically upload pictures. You can delete the files afterwards.
2) Download this fake image zip (https://s3.amazonaws.com/picturesharing/fakeimages.tar.bz2) It's basically 17k zip file worth of jpg files but bloated so it actually reads 5 gigs. Now you can unzip the .tar.bz2 and unzip it again until you get a folder with jpgs (so unzip twice since it's a zip within a zip). Put these fake images onto your SD card, unmount the SD card, and load the SD card again (or USB drive). Dropbox will search for images when you plug in the sd card and will sync the jpgs.
From my own experience, just let the jpgs sync to your Camera Upload folder and you'll get the bonus space. You're not actually uploading 5gigs worth of jpgs because it's actually 17kb so don't you worry if you have slow upload speeds (like me).
3) If for some reason dropbox doesn't find the jpgs, try making a folder called DCIM and putting the jpgs in that folder.
If you don't have dropbox, it's a great way to save files and share on the cloud! You can sign up at dropbox.com or you can get another 250mb of free space by signing up as my referral, which I would love! my referral link is: http://db.tt/a4mt2G6
Enjoy!
I downloaded & installed v1.3.13 but cannot see any way to sync any portable devices - am I missing something?
EDIT - Doh! I just read the instructions about removing then reinserting the USB stick!
EDIT again - just reinserted my USB stick & nothing seems to be happening?
Don't forget, TouchPad owners get a free 50GB account from Box.com (used to be .net) - you just have to sign up from withing webOS.
2GB and even 5GB just sounds so dinky.
Worked like a charm!!!! Thanks.
dwl99 after you insert your usb stick (if you have disabled the autoplay feature) you have to right click on it and choose import photos using dropbox and it should work great.

That is true. The Box.com deal is better but it is also good to have a Dropbox account with storage space if you use Titanium Backup.
Follow the link provided in the first post and download the windows client. I used this dl-web.dropbox.com/u/17/Dropbox%201.3.13.exe
Box may have larger space, but you only have a 100mb file size limit. Dropbox the only limit you have is your total space.

thank you! yeah I have a box.net but it sucks to have that 100mb limit and I like how dropbox has the desktop client so if I wanted to upload anything I can just put it into my dropbox folder and it'll automatically upload by itself

do you have windows or mac? I have a mac so I might not be able to help you if you have a windows, but I think you can just right click the usb stick and click on import photos through dropbox. If that doesn't work, is it possible to turn on autoplay?

Dropbox or.... Sugar Sync!
Hi thanks for that, the normal (free) dropbox size could always do with being bigger! I was amazed when I found out and signed up for box.net's free 50gb but found it to be garbage. The 25mb file limit (well sound's like it's now 100mb from your posts) was prohibitive for files that would actually make use of 50gb and the lack of desktop sync (unless you are a business customer) also combined to make it pointless of me.
Genuinely not trying to sound too salesman-like but.. I recently started using sugar sync. It's 5gb free vs 2gb with dropbox. And it has no file size limit (like box.net). And it has desktop sync (like dropbox). And you can sync *any* folders on your computer with a right click context menu (better than dropbox where they all have to be in dropbox folder). And any pics or music you sync can then be streamed to any mobile android/ios etc device via their app (cos often that right click is easier than connecting & uploading). It's more spacious, easy and powerful in my experience so far. And you can select your dropbox folder as one to sync giving you double cloud backup protection and easing the transition if you want to switch!
I still use dropbox cos that's what I'm used to but I'm thinking of dropping it soon. If you're interested in giving it a try, PM me your email and I'll send you an invite which will give us both an extra 0.5gb on top of the 5gb you normally get. (And another advantage - there's no limit to how much space you can get via recommendations! unlike dropbox...). Yes I am shamelessly trying to increase my sugar sync storage but I do genuinely find it better and so might you and you'll get another 0.5gb too.
i dont think it increased it to the max.... cause now i only have 6.75 amount of space not 7.25
I'm at 11.7gb from referrals, using the jpg zip i can still get another 5?

edit: im an idiot
Thanks for the fake pics. This worked perfectly!
This is weird. I have installed Dropbox 1.3.13 o2 2 different Win7 64-bit and 1 WinXP computers. I have tried the fake jpg's on a USB stick and a microSD card and also tried putting the jpg's inside a DCIM folder but Dropbox still looks exactly the same as before. When I right-click the Dropbox taskbar icon there is no option to sync the DCIM folder. If I right-click the DCIM folder or the USB/SD card there is also no option to do anything with Dropbox. Surely I'm missing something really obvious???
EDIT - I just enabled Autoplay on the SD card on the WinXP machine & it now gives an option to sync when the card is reinserted.
EDIT again - just got it working on the Win7 PC - I needed to enable Autoplay for pictures, reinsert the USB stick, right click on the drive and then select Autoplay & then Dropbox sync.
Thanks for the tip.I recently signed up for Dropbox and is pretty awesome compared to others like box.com which offers 50GB of free is you use certain device.And what a horrible experience it was....what is the point of having all that space if the features are so limited so Dropbox has loyal customer.Thanks to the OP for the tip and to Dropbox.
Thanks for this. I also got capped at 6.75 even though i had a couple referrals. Still more than I had.

Dropbox Beta. Get Even More Free Space!

I found this topic over here at the Atrix forum.
I copied/pasted the below quote from the Dropbox forum here.
Hi everyone!
Even though the holidays have passed, we're really stoked to give you guys one more present -- a new experimental release! Under the wrapping you'll find a bunch of new toys, including a brand new Camera Upload feature. Here are the release notes:
• Automatically uploads photos and videos in the background using Wi-Fi or data plan
• 500MB of free space on first photo uploaded automatically
• Upload files of any size (no more 180 MB limit!)
• Support for resuming file uploads when there are network issues
• Various performance improvements & bug fixes
During this beta period, we are also offering additional free space to test automatic uploading of photos and videos. For every 500MB of photos and videos automatically uploaded, you'll receive another 500MB space bonus, up to 5GB total (including the initial 500MB space).
[Update: this space is not separate from 5GB given for uploading on our desktop clients. Uploading from either desktop clients or Android app will count towards the same 5GB free space.]

Since there aren't really any good instructions on how this works I figured it might help to share what I had to do to get the free 500mb
First either download the apk from here. Or get it straight to your phone from this QR code. Both of these links can be found at the Dropbox forum page here (http://forums.dropbox.com/topic.php?id=53013).
Once you have the app installed either fresh or over a previous install. Open it. It should take you through the setup as if it was a new install rather than an update. Once the setup was over the app went to a new screen and showed my photos and videos being found and then it began to upload them.
I haven't had a chance to steal the Nook Color from my daughter long enough to try it out on it. But I expect it to work just fine. I'll go ahead and share my Atrix story below. It might or might not happen on the NC. If it does just shut down and restart. It should be cool after that.
I did have an issue when running it for the first time on my Motorola Atrix. I went into my settings while it was uploading. When I went back to Dropbox. The app did a funky crash, force close. Then it got interesting. The app opened and wanted to start all over, then closed, then opened and began a loop of that that would not close or allow me to get to settings or anything that would help. I had no issue when pressing the fingerprint button and then choosing to shut down.
After it restarted I went back to Dropbox. I had to log in, but other than that it is running just fine. No more weird loops, fc's or strangeness of any sort so far. And I did get my 500mb right away. I did delete the photos that I tried uploading from my pc earlier and it didn't act like I cheated or anything.
Now hopefully no one minds if I put in a shameless plug.
If you don't already have Dropbox and want to try it please consider using my referral link(http://db.tt/LbHgKOa). Using my referral link gives both you and I an extra 500mb of space when you sign up. It is free!
If you'd rather just go straight to the Dropbox website it is here. http://www.dropbox.com.
Also if anyone else wants to post their referral link below I don't mind at all. We should all go for the max space allowed.
I didn't feel like putting 1 million pictures on my Nook so I copied a few HD movies from my computer into SD Card/DCIM/screenshots and renamed the file to look like the pics around it and then I changed the extension to .png and let it do its thing. I now have 5 more GB of space.

yeah. Box has 50gb, but my data feels kinda locked there (no batch DL for free accounts). And the 100mb file limit severely limits its usefulness.

Dropbox for Verizon S4

Hi everyone I was wondering how to activate my free 50gb from dropbox?
I download the app and logged in with my account but it still shows that I have 2gb of storage. Thanks in advance for your help
Sent from my SCH-I545 using xda app-developers app
My understanding is that u only get the 50gb free space if it came pre installed on your device. Since u had to download it, you do not get 50gb. Only 2gb
Just watch for deals on dropbox website. I didn't have my drop box preloaded on old phone but they had a deal if you did like 5 out of 7 things it updated to 50gb for free. It was things like upload a picture to your account, send an email to invite someone else to Dropbox (i sent it to my alt email address and it counted) add dropbox to a PC you own. It was things like that and you needed to really involve no one else to get the 50GB free.
Maybe they don't do that anymore but I'd just keep an eye for it.
Did not apply for the Verizon S4, I had them tell me personally when I sent a message to support.

Just watch for deals on dropbox website. I didn't have my drop box preloaded on old phone but they had a deal if you did like 5 out of 7 things it updated to 50gb for free. It was things like upload a picture to your account, send an email to invite someone else to Dropbox (i sent it to my alt email address and it counted) add dropbox to a PC you own.

i did something similar to this the other day. 5 out of the 7 tasks were performed, but it only increased me from 2gb to 3.25gb. each task gave you like 250mb or something. still better than nothing, but 50gb would be awesome.
well, I did this with dropbox like 6 months ago maybe? so maybe a xmas/december deal? idk
Don't get too excited - it doesn't last
Don't get too excited about your 'FREE' 50 Gb of storage at dropbox
IT ONLY LASTS FOR 2 YEARS. In DropBox look in settings - account tab - 'view all space earned and you will see.
So by that time you have become dependent upon it and you lose your free allowance and drop back to 2 Gb.
Is that why it is called drop box !?
So you have gone through all the hoops, introduced friends as required ( and they HAVE to join to see the shared folder that you HAVE to provide.
You have installed it on another device that you HAVE to do.
I am going to stick with my free 15 Gb on Google Drive together with 1 Tb ( yes ONE TERRABYTE ) on Flickr for all of my 22500 pictures.
