If I move files from one folder in my Dropbox folder structure to another, what happens on the other synced devices? Do they:
- Move the files on the synced device from the source folder to destination without and upload / download of files
- Remove the file from the source folder on the synced device and re-download the file into the destination folder
I have some large shared files that I want to move, but am wary of triggering a large upload & download to my other PCs using dropbox, which will cause problems with my ISP bandwidth limit.
sounds promising, thanks. Will give it a go on a test file presently – Kris C – 2012-12-04T14:04:05.753
I've moved the files on one Windows PC. The other windows PC then executed the move without having to redownload etc. Haven't tried on other OS's yet. This answer is the nearest to actual behaviour - please can you add in these details and I'll accept (not sure I can answer my own question) – Kris C – 2012-12-04T19:48:11.713
I rewrote the answer based on your findings. Feel free to [edit] it though if you have further comments. You could answer your own question if you like, it's up to you! – slhck – 2012-12-04T20:10:36.017
