I’m receiving this error when trying to move a folder.Why is this happening?

I am in the process of migrating data via Box Shuttle from SharePoint and receive a handful of errors that were all the same. 11 files that are 6GB each and 1 file that is 45GB Box Error:[Statussize-exceededMessageFile is too large to be copied to the destination]Plenty other files that were same size or larger were successful, so I am confused as to why these won’t work. Couldn’t find anywhere to submit a support ticket, so hoping for help here. 

Is there a way to require a signature (using Box Sign) from everyone who is invited to Preview a file? I.e. they need to sign in order to scroll down or click to view the file they were invited to. I do not want to share an open link to the file after they sign, which I know can be done via the auto-response after the signature is received. It has to be that they are only able to access the file after they sign the confidentiality agreement pertaining to the file they are about to view.

Hi, I urgently need to get into my box account. It was connected to an old work email that has been terminated. I can’t reset the password because I can’t see the email. Please advice. The files are of great value to me.

    And  I can't update my email address since I can't get into box with the old one.  What should I do? Thanks,   Tori.

Is there a possibility to stop the notifications of Box when files don’t upload? It is very annoying. I don’t want to log out / in, quit or restart my laptop, fix the files. I just want to turn off all notifications. Please make this an option - it is very annoying.

I have an application that consistently makes requests to the Box Enterprise Events API to get and monitor events for a customer. The requests occur every 10 minutes, and every request extracts the next_stream_position cursor and uses it as the stream_position parameter for the subsequent request. The purpose here being that we can retrieve events in 10 minute intervals. One thing that I noticed was that the Box Enterprise Events API is unreliable in the way we are using it, as we have seen a number of events missed/not returned by the API. We were able to confirm this by doing the following: - Look at all of the events our request cycle retrieved that have a timestamp dated yesterday (say Monday) - Start a secondary API request cycle, using yesterday's date (Monday) as the starting point - Compare the events retrieved by the secondary cycle that have a timestamp of Monday to the events from the primary cycle - The results were that the secondary c

I've switched to a new phone and lost access to my Google Authenticator app, which was set up for Box MFA. Unfortunately, I no longer have access to the previous phone or the authenticator codes. Given that my username is different, I'm wondering if there's an alternative way to verify my identity, such as through the email address associated with my Box account, or if you can assist me in disabling MFA. I'd appreciate your help in regaining access to my account. 

Hi I have deleted files and emptied trash but this is not reflected in the amount consumed. Please can you run the script to resolve this issue? Currently my box shows 13gb used of 15gb. Thanks

I can not access my Box account with all my files because it is tied to an email account, r*****@*****.com, which I do not have. Please help. I have a lot of information I need on this account.

Did something change recently?  It seems when I open folders now the default is details.  I have changed these in the past to list and also clicked on Apply to all folders of this type.  For some reason it doesn’t work and I have to keep changing the view to list.   ***Using box drive

I used my edu email to register the box account years ago. But the university deleted every alumni’s email which was promissed to be an life long email. Unfortunately, I didn’t see the notification before they deleted the email permanantly. I can no longer log into by box account. How to still access to the box account with all my files? 

When I log into Box I no longer see any files. 

I apparently tried uploading three different files at different times and they must not have downloaded. I no longer need them (and to be honest do not even recall that where was an error) ......  Every time I turn on my laptop computer I get the error notifications and can't find how I delete the upload attempt or stop the error notifications.

I’m considering subscribing to the Box Business plan ($15/user/month) for my team of 9. I understand that with this plan, all external collaborators require a paid seat. How does the billing for this work? A couple of specific scenarios: We have a temporary collaborator that ends after one month and then a new collaborator joins. Can I just pay for one extra seat that will cover both of these people? We have a temporary collaborator that is only on our account for 2 weeks. Can I pay for an extra seat and then delete it after these 2 weeks? How much will I get billed for?

I am using Box through webbrowser interface.To improve usability, I wanted to also use Box Drive, but it does not seem to work with our company proxy server.

Currently my files sync to a Box Folder located on my C Drive.  I want to move the folder to my D Drive which has more space.  The instructions I have seen all relate to setting the sync location upon install, but they don’t reflect what you can do when it is already installed.  Does one need to uninstall and then re-install Box Sync to change the location?  Seems like there should be an option to change the location.My Box Sync Options 

I am not getting email notifications for uploads into a specified folder. When I upload a file into that folder, my boss gets the notification to his email box, but I do not. I went to this folder and enabled the the email notifications. This is important as this folder contains high-priority items to work on. I am an editor and these notification items have not been greyed out.
