I have attempted to create a Phonegap app supporting both Android and Windows8 for the Dropbox Javascript Datastores API that makes use of the example provided here: https://github.com/dropbox/cordova-datastores-example When I build and run the Android app, it runs perfectly on the Android tablet. But when I run the app created for Windows8, an error is displayed: The app couldn't navigate to ... because of this error: FORBIDFRAMING . And then nothing happens afterwards. I haven't been able to find an alternative to using a frame. I would like to know, if there is a way to run the Windows8 app

I have a mobile web app/site and I would like the users to upload a word document to our site. As safari on the iPhone is not able to upload files what are the alternatives? I have seen http://code.google.com/p/iphone-photo-picker/ however this is not photograph. Is it documented anywhere that the Dropbox API, iCloud API or another API would allow selection a file from a user to copy to our servers? Alternately is there another way for our iPhone users using safari? nLL No, iPhone does not offer input type file on it's browser (except for images or videos). What i do is, have users to send

I have I have a web site were try to provide a service to a client to be abel to download from Dropbox a file. For simplicity of development I use Dropbox chooser . For this I enable domains I expect to download from and include <script> tag suggested by Dropbox itself (with corresponding data-app-key ) into my HTML page. Everything works sweet. Problem Now I need to download a file selected by the user. Dropbox chooser doesn't seem to provide any functionality for this, what it does, is just retrieve an information about file. In my case this is a direct link , to download the file. To

I am developing an iOS application using Dropbox API. While uploading a file using the dropbox API, I just want to overwrite the existing file with the same name. How can I set the parent rev and what value? Thanks! sumanth Get all the files in the directory with [[self restclient] loadMetadata:@"/"] in the delegate - (void)restClient:(DBRestClient *)client loadedMetadata:(DBMetadata *)metadata you get all the details of each file. Scan through all the files with file name of your interest and get the rev details with file.rev and store it. When you want to replace the file, for parentrev

I have been trying to upload a simple file to dropbox using the files_upload() function in python3 Even trying out the code in the tutorial provided on Dropbox's site I get an error and I don't understand why. What am I missing here? Here is my code: import dropbox dbx = dropbox.Dropbox("my_access_token") data = "asd" dbx.files_upload(data, '/file.txt') And here is the error message I get when I try to run it: Traceback (most recent call last): File "dbox.py", line 7, in <module> dbx.files_upload(data, '/file.txt') File "/usr/local/lib/python3.4/dist-packages/dropbox/base.py", line 1225, in

Sorry, I can tell I don't entirely know what I'm talking about. For example, to open a URL for Facebook, the prefix is "fb://". Does anyone happen to know the prefix for Dropbox? I'm pretty sure it has one, because in the new Dropbox API (1.0) it opens the Dropbox app from within your app to let the user log in, and the only way I know of doing this would be through one of those prefix things which I don't know what they are called. I do not actually want to open a file in Dropbox. I actually want to detect whether Dropbox is installed on the iPhone, and the best way that I can think of to do

This question is about using Dropbox to sync an sqlite Core Data store between multiple iOS devices. Consider this arrangement: An app utilizes a Core Data store, call it local.sql , saved in the app's own NSDocumentDirectory The app uses the Dropbox Sync API to observe a certain file in the user's Dropbox, say, user/myapp/synced.sql The app observes NSManagedObjectContextDidSaveNotification , and on every save it copies local.sql to user/myapp/synced.sql , thereby replacing the latter. When the Dropbox API notifies us that synced.sql changed, we do the opposite of part 3 more or less: tear
