Download Dropbox 1.3.20 experimental

Spread the love

Dropbox is an online storage service that makes it possible to synchronize files between different computers. In addition, files and photo albums can be shared with people who don’t have a Dropbox account. Clients are available for Windows, Linux, Mac OS X, iPhone, iPad, Android, BlackBerry, and Windows Mobile. A free account gives you access to 2GB of storage and for ten or twenty dollars a month that’s 50 and 100GB respectively. A new experimental build has recently been released, which makes it possible, among other things, to place photos from cameras, telephones and memory cards in the cloud. In addition, a collective assignment can be created with which various files can be uploaded or downloaded.

Experimental Forum Build – 1.3.20

New forum build, and we’ll be auto updating you to it. So if you’re running any 1.3 version sync a file and it should update in due time.

New users of Camera Upload will get 500 MB after their first successful import. Users can also receive up to a total of 3 GB additional free space for photos and videos automatically uploaded via the desktop or mobile apps.

Note: The bonus can only be earned once for the entire beta program. If you earned 5GB before you will not earn another 3GB for testing this version.

1.3.20

  • Fix naming of files from Galaxy Nexus.
  • Fix inability to import photos because of Unicode names.
  • Make autoupdate more robust
  • Other small fixes

1.3 (Code name: Phoenix Down) Features

  • Importing photos from cameras, phones, and SD cards.
  • Batch upload/download or files.

Notes:

  • Windows Users: Please do not use Run As to install. The executable is usually smart enough to ask you for your admin credentials if it needs them. Just double click the executable like normal.
  • Clients 1.3.7 and earlier had an auto-update bug. Please install this version so that your client will stay up to date!
  • The photo import feature is not available on Mac 10.4 and Linux.
  • For Android devices, it’s best to use “Connect as Disk Drive”. HTC Sync won’t work.
  • To import from iPhone, make sure to unlock your phone and enter your passcode before importing, otherwise it will claim to find no photos.
  • If importing from your iPhone on Mac gives an import error, try hard resetting it–hold down the power and the home button for 5 seconds. This will reboot the phone; it shouldn’t change your settings or delete data.
  • On Windows, this feature relies on Autoplay. Please enable Autoplay to use this feature if you have disabled it.
  • On XP and Vista, it relies on the Windows Image Acquisition Service. If this service is not started, please start the service and reinstall Dropbox to use this feature. On WIndows Server, you may have to install the Desktop Experience feature.
  • On Windows 7, newer devices that rely on Device Stage (in the Control Panel) will not show Dropbox as an import option until you select “Change Program” for the default.
  • The Galaxy Nexus takes a lot of time to connect on OS X because it likes to pretend that every image on the device is a photograph. We now estimate how long it’s going to take and show you that in the progress bar but it’s usually in the order of minutes. We’re working to see if this can be improved.

As usual, we strongly recommend making a backup of your Dropbox before upgrading to this build as we’ll need a few weeks to be certain of its stability. We will rapidly release new builds as necessary to snipe the most common issues as they arise.
