Dropbox not working? Try these steps

  1. 1
    Refresh or restart the app

    Reload the page with Ctrl + F5 (Cmd + Shift + R on Mac). On a phone, close Dropbox completely and open it again.

  2. 2
    Check your internet connection

    Open another website or app. If nothing loads, restart your router or switch between Wi-Fi and mobile data.

  3. 3
    Update the app or browser

    An outdated Dropbox app or browser can stop working after changes on Dropbox’s side. Install any pending updates.

  4. 4
    Clear cache and cookies

    Old saved data can keep showing an error after Dropbox is fixed. Clear them for this site, or try a private window.

  5. 5
    Change DNS or turn off VPN

    Switch your DNS to 1.1.1.1 or 8.8.8.8 and disable any VPN, proxy or ad blocker, then try Dropbox again.

Dropbox status FAQ

Is Dropbox down right now?

The status box at the top of this page shows our latest automatic check of dropbox.com, which runs every 10 minutes, plus how many people reported Dropbox problems in the last hour. If our check is green but you still can’t use Dropbox, the problem is most likely on your side.

Why is Dropbox not working for me?

When Dropbox is up for everyone else, the usual causes are a weak or blocked connection, an outdated app, cached data in your browser, a VPN or ad blocker, or a DNS problem with your internet provider. Work through the troubleshooting steps on this page in order.

How can I tell if Dropbox is down for everyone?

Compare two things on this page: our server check and the number of user reports. If our check fails or many people report problems at the same time, Dropbox is probably having a wider outage. If both look normal, it is likely just you.

What should I do while Dropbox is down?

Wait and try again later rather than reinstalling the app or resetting your password, which won’t fix a server-side problem. Avoid repeating payments or orders until Dropbox is working again, and check this page for updates.

How often do you check Dropbox?

Our server checks dropbox.com every 10 minutes and keeps the results for 90 days. User reports from this page are counted live, so a sudden spike shows up within minutes.
