However, if you use Dropbox Connection and don’t have Dropbox client installed this does not count towards the limit.

So if your computer is using Dropbox Folder as you have to have Dropbox client installed this counts towards the limit. It seems that limit applies to the devices that can be connected to the Dropbox product itself, via official Dropbox applications, such as the official Dropbox desktop client or mobile applications. However, you can't add new devices without first reducing your existing count to below the limit. If you already (up to March 2019) have more than three devices that count towards the limit then these extra devices will not be blocked. Please?ĭropbox has imposed a limit as follows see So now, unless I pay $99 a year to keep using Dropbox, I now have to limit my connections or research an alternative, something I don't want to do.ĭropbox was one of the first to offer synchronisation to the masses, but now it's not the only kid on the block, can IK look at some other basic (free) systems, Google, Box, iCloud, One Drive. There are other threads on this board discussing the use of Dropbox on handhelds, but perhaps it is time for IK to investigate how to resolve the synchronisation issues. Whilst there are potentially other methods of synchronising Windows and Mac devices, all Android and iOS devices use the Dropbox API to link. Since March this year, however, Dropbox have implemented a 3 device limit to their Basic account and this impacts on the use of Moneydance. Since then we have implemented family-wide access to the money data which works very well. I moved to Moneydance after many years of using Microsoft Money and one of the factors involved the ability to add items to the Moneydance data files from my iPhone by linking Dropbox to my iPhone and desktop systems.
