Maybe even leave it overnight between moves

That way, you should get no issues.

I've just tried it with the green tick and it didn't help - my 4th attempt at downloading was also corrupted.

Harry,

What exactly is corrupt ?

Teflon · 8th April 2011, 20:13

I've had the same issue - downloaded the file twice from the Dropbox website by selecting the folder and clicking "download". Each time I ended up with a single, large file called "Primo1.2.zip" which Windows said was corrupt and could not be opened.

This time I am running the Dropbox app on my PC so that it syncs the files automatically, and it appears to be downloading the folder, together with the subfolders (i.e. no zip file), so perhaps this is the answer.

I'm downloading the entire folder as 'Primo 1 (1).2.zip' - when I try to access it with PKZIP it says the file is corrupted.

I am also seeing various zip file sizes of between 500Mb and 2Gb for the same file, once I have downloaded it.

Ahhhhh I see the issue....

Don't download it !

You should have a folder on your C drive called My Dropbox..

The files will automatically sync with the on line files.

Then the best thing is to copy it into a different location when all the files are synced

DO NOT DELETE FROM YOUR DROP BOX.

When your are done with it, simply click on the folder on line and select leave folder.

The file in my Dropbox was corrupted/incomplete too, so I had to delete it.

Is anyone able to put it in my Dropbox?

++++++ Thanks Mark :-)

MARKUK · 8th April 2011, 21:17

Harry

You have just deleted the folder for everyone !

I will need to upload it again...

Please wait until its done and please DO NOT DELETE !!!

Not having much luck with this. Just come back to see how my download is going, and the shared folder "Primo1.2" is now empty, so no download.

Looks like the contents have been deleted by another user

See above !...

I may not be able to restore this as I am 2% over my storage limit
due to the extra changes Tony has madewhich has made the folder 2.9 gigs...

***Edit***

Have removed some of the maps for Eastern Europe etc to make the file smaller

Teflon · 8th April 2011, 21:33

That may well be why Dropbox is now telling me it is 124.9% in use.

I have no files stored myself, and my Dropbox folder is empty other than the Primo 1.2 folder which it is now downloading again, however if Primo 1.2 is above the storage limit for the free version of Dropbox, will it allow me to download it all? (I'm guessing not).
