      How can I access the iPhone interface? Accessing through safari sends me to the regular site.

    • shriya

      Hi apenomics, are you trying to access getdropbox.com via Safari in iPhone? It should automatically detect that and display an iPhone specific interface. If you are trying to do this from a PC/Mac, you would have to change the Useragent in your browser so the website thinks you are on iPhone. Let me know if you have difficulty doing it.

      thanks for the help :D

      Hi,

      I’ve got the same problem. Safari sents me to the regular site. I don’t get what you mean by ‘you would have to change the Useragent in your browser’. Please help.

      grz.

    • shriya

      Sjoerd, are you trying this in your iPhone? If yes, you should automatically see the iPhone version of Dropbox site.

    • sjoerd

      yes I did and it is what they say it should do. But like I said: it does not.
      I figured that it do work with the URL https://www.getdropbox.com/iphone

      So it is solved this way. Thx anyway

      Can I upload the (many) contacts from my iphone to dropbox?

    • Sjoerd

      You can’t directly upload it from your iphone to dropbox. Why should you? You would have a document which is not up to date anymore the next day. I should just sync it with your computer.
