When i download a file it says corrupt file

Probably - or a shared folder that the person accepts and installs Dropbox on their machine to download the files from rather than the web.

For me they need a backup system - as a minimum. A fail safe - what happens if you have no power? No internet? No anything? It just seems very very short cutting and I know the teams I work with wouldnt accept that - and mine are only minor Sunday league ones!

I am in South Africa - with regular power outages due to our wonderfully incompetent president and ANC government.

We are used to dodging the blackouts, working with minimal internet coverage and all that goes with the dark ages. SA is still a lovely country. But incompetency is state-of-the-art - totally perfected. If you're experiencing a similar behavior, feel free to start a new discussion in the Dropbox Community here. The way we work is changing.

Connecting to the phone modem only is in a little closet in the laundry room I got some wires through the roof could get a direct line to my room but it will require me to do it tomorrow while no one is home.

Also before even making this post I would manually go to the local roaming and delete all files then I would restart the installer and files would populate then give an error about being corrupt.

Will try hijack this if my router doesn't work. I'm hoping a simple restart of the router might help. The router uses channel bonding which I am not to familiar with. Might simply need a restart to fix it. Well I tried to cover everything you mentioned if my responses are delayed I am at work lol. So will try to keep checking and will test some things out tonight. Thanks again for the help. I read on a different forum that I can call my ISP and request them to set the Motorola as a bridge and then use my Linksys as my primary wifi.

I am considering this. Else will still try the above when I get home. Good news is that my system is way more stable after bios update. However, even after a router reset my pc is still claiming corrupt files. Someone mentioned ram however I passed Prime 95 something I was unable to do before bios update. Might call ISP tomorrow see if they have some ideas or can reset whatever remotely. Else I'm back to my LAN adapter. The phone modem you speak of how does it connect to the motorola, the only WAN port it has is the coax connector, unless you are running some wierd config using a crossover cable.

Who is your ISP and is the linksys connected to the motorola. The corrupted files could be coming from any number of sources bad cables, dropped packets, interference etc.. Well windows can't build a network map either I made a crude drawing in paint sorry but best I can do to explain the setup.

Its the built in Intel NIC using the intel driver I checked my cables yesterday one was "poor" quality so I switched it out now its good. Still no change. I know interference can effect physical cables but I feel that is the least likely also intel driver says signal and all its fancy convenient tests point to good integrity. So far my laptop and pc have shown this issue tested pc more than laptop however. Miniatura de Adjuntos. Page 1 of 2 1 2 Last Jump to page:. I don't know if this is the best way to handle this multi-OS situation but I use a very similar approach, I use this function to get the OS and perform some tasks accordingly, obviously, this is not a general solution since it only works for the operating systems that I use, but it can give you an idea.

This is supposed to be Windows-only but I have tested it on Ubuntu and it works normally so I would say, give it a try. It has other benefits in addition to being platform neutral, and it is imported by httr which in turn is used by just about everyone, so I did not feel so bad about creating a package dependency.

I am including the first steps of a function just to illustrate my issue.
