Dropbox & Rapidweaver

When I save one of my sites to Dropbox, I can’t choose a destination inside dropbox. So the web site gets saved with files scattered all over my dropbox. I have 4 new sites, its impossible to save more than one in an orderly fashion. How can you choose a folder inside Dropbox or Box as a destination? Let me know if you need more info. Thanks for the help, Aloha from Maui.

When you save a project to the Dropbox you should zip it before uploading.

not sure what is happening to you, but if you watch this video you will see it works just fine for me. Thanks @apfelpuree for the mention and link, something that EVERY user should read.

I know that some users use the Dropbox without any problems but I had some customers I had to give support because the Dropbox destroyed their project files. So I would recommend to be very, very careful.

For synching between two Macs I use a sync tool like ChronoSync. That syncs my project folders and is very reliable.

Zeebe: I really appreciate your help!! I dont really know when or how I started saving the web sites to dropbox. Lol.
They were working fine out of Dropbox and one out of box… I had to go and restore deleted files from both, and they were working fine after restoring. I now have saved them to my desktop, I like to see them there, and I have a back up on an external drive. The video you gave me a link, I can’t get the audio to work… But, I won’t be using Dropbox or Box…

Thank you for your help!! Please read my answer to Zeebe… I won’t be using Dropbox or Box anymore. They were working fine but I had files scattered all over my Dropbox… I dont even know when I started saving it there… I guess at one time I decided to see if I could work on my IMac, bigger screen…
I want to watch the video, but has no audio, any ideas?? Aloha from Maui!

There was no audio on my video, I used QuickTime to record it.
