Gps Offline

[Telly Piatt]

GenerallyI keep my Dropbox files off-line. In the past, if I marked a particular file "make available offline", the circle next to the file name would turn green fairly quickly, and the file would then be available on my driv drive immideately. Now, however, the "make available offline option seems to have no effect. If I try to access a file, the access is veery slow and sometimes fail completely. However, I can usually still access files if I wait long enough. Also, I can move files (very slowly) to a flash drive. why has this change occurred?

Thank you. I am not sure I understand your questions, but I will answer as best i can. I do not know the app version. Where can I find that? I presume it is the current version. I dont know why it would not be. The app indicates it is "sincing" but the number of files sincing just keeps growing. In the past, the number of files sincing would drop to zero fairly quickly. I dont know the exact time the problem started, but I first noticed it about a week or so ago. Initially I thought it was just some temporary problem that would solve itself, but that has not occurred. I am not aware of any particular update at that time, but I cannot rule it out. There are 441,443 files in the Dropbox folder. The app indicates they occupy 3.8 TB of my available 4.0 TB. The app indicates 11,671 files are sincing, but, as i explained above, there does not appear to be much progress in reducing that number. Thanks for your help.

When you say "the number of files currently syncing", do you mean the number of files in the Dropbox folder? File Explorer counts the number of files in the Dropbox folder at , but, ordinarily, none are sincing because all have completed their synchonization, and the vast majority are set to "online only." At least, that is my understanding. Presently, the Dropbox icon in the system tray indicates 12,066 files are syncing, but that is the reason I am reporting this problem: the sync function does not apper to be working correctly. Ordinarily the number of files syncing would be very small and would quickly diminish to zero.

I would be willing to move files from my Dropbox folder if that is what you say I must do, but that diminishes the value of having Dropbox account. I have a plan with 4.0TB, and the Dropbox icon in the system tray indicates only 3.8TB is in use. So, usuage should not be a problem. Are you saying I am limited to a certain number of files as well as to 4.0TB of space? What if I zip some of the smaller files together?

In answer to your question about selective sync: The default is set to "online only", and I generally return files to "online only" after using them. However, my understanding is that "online only" leaves all the files in my Dropbox. Changing the setting only affects the file on my local disk. Is that correct? If so, I dont see what you mean by removing large files from the desktop app. Selective sync would keep them off my local disk, but the only way I know to remove a file from Dropbox is to delete the file, in whch case I would lose it from my local disk too, right? That would be counterproductive. Evidently I am confused.

You also mentioned that the app is syncing that amount of files, however the question is, since your plan is using 3.8TB out of the 4TB, do you have enough space for these files to sync to your account online?

I presume space is available in my dropbox. I believe all or most of the files "syncing" are downloading, not uploading. Also, if space was unavailable in the dropbox, I presume the indicator would show the full 4.0 TB used, or at least 3.9 TB and not 3.8 TB. I would also expect some kind of error message or warning that space is low.

However, in order to assure ample space in the dropbox, I started a few days ago cutting and moving some large files to a flash drive. That is a chore because dropbox will only download them one at a time, and very slowly.

Earlier Enterprises may not have had a hard limit specified in the documentation but there has been a lot of discussion on issues packaging data. There's a good chance that's why these hard limit recommendations eventually came to be.

Entire package. They recommend excluding attachments to decrease package size. It's generally the tile layers + large extent + high level of detail, or attachments, that contribute the most to package size.

You can create up to 16 offline map areas per web map. I'd recommend creating multiple offline areas, as optimized (small) as possible, instead of a single behemoth. I'd look to the 11.1 or latest size limit recommendations as a good guide - under 1gb is better.

I'm on 10.9.1 and I'm having issues packaging offline areas due to the size of the packages. Since discovering the size limit in the 11.2 documentation, I wondered if the hard limit had always existed but not specifically mentioned.

I discovered that my map already had 16 offline map areas of various sizes (up to 3GB in size) which led me to question how the size limit was enforced. Then, I realised that when the offline map areas were created, they were very likely to be under 2GB in size initially.

As the size of some of the feature services grew, the data in the offline managed grew as well through the 'update' process. The 'Update' process appears to ignore size limits which is how I ended up with packages >2GB in size.

It does introduce a lot of issues in maintaining these offline areas because you could not knowingly be maintaining a perfectly working offline area that has exceeded the size limit but suddenly could not be recreated again due to the size limit and the result is a broken offline map area.

Does anyone out there have users with massive (thousands of rows and dozens of columns) XFGetCell() workbooks that are seeing issues with the "Save Offline Copy" feature? (and yes, I know.. they should not be creating these massive workbooks in the first place - that's not what XF() is meant to do)

My organization loves XFGetCells and a lot of our FP&A users have retrieves pulling 25,000-30,000 data cells. Typically, I recommend two things when facing issues similar to what you're describing.

1. Ensure the entire workbook has been refreshed before attempting to save offline copy. If the entire workbook isn't fully refreshed, it will appear that the offline file saved but you won't get the desired outcome.

2. Review your preferences in the Excel Add-in. The below screenshot of my setup has always worked for saving offline files.

I was always under the impression that when saving an offline copy, the addin attempts to refresh the entire workbook one last time before saving anyhow - just wanted to confirm that you're saying we should still do that anyhow because it's possible the offline save isn't finishing the refresh before attempting to save a copy?

Thanks for the screen capture as well - looking at your preferences, it would appear that you are on a later version than we are. May I ask what version you're on? We're still plodding along on 6.8 and I wonder if they made improvements to this offline feature in later versions?

I also suggested to my users that it might be a good idea to set their Excel calculation to Manual instead of Automatic because there's an additional checkbox that causes the entire workbook to recalculate. I'm not sure if they've tested that yet or not. And I'm not sure how helpful it'll be but I know these folks have combined vlookups() within the same cells as their XF() functions so it's a guess on my part.

Looking forward to hearing what version you're on because I feel like we're doing what you're suggesting. On the plus side it gives me greater comfort that this is offline save is doable without issue and maybe we just need that upgrade.
