Hi Nat, 

This began happening to me as well last week and is getting progressively worse!!!  It's crippling my ability to work.  Uninstall/Re-Install on Mac OS didn't solve the problem.  Happening to a couple of other people in our organization as well.

Has any progress been made on this?

Device info:

Macbook Pro (2019)

MacOS Catalina (10.15.7)

2.3 GHz 8-Core intel Core i9

I am having this issue too. Please help!

I am having this same problem.  Please advise

Giving this a bump...still happening and CRIPPLING me.  No response from support?

Some of our users are experiencing the same issue. Folders noted in the errors have not been accessed by the user however he is a member of a group that owns the folder (not sure if that's relevant here)

Did anyone get any answers to this?  We've just experiencing the same thing!  

Has this been resolved for anyone? Box support stated they were getting an abnormal amount of requests from my device, but we cant seem to figure out why. 

The response I received is below. I haven't had the user test this as it would seriously impact his productivity, so can't confirm whether this resolved our issue yet.

After taking a look at the logs, it appears that processes called "Adobe Media Encoder 2021" and "Adobe Premiere Pro 2021" are making a large number of requests on the files in your Box Drive folder. 

When applications try to open files throughout all of Box, Box Drive must fetch lists of file names in every Box folder from Box.com that the user has access to. To preserve fast and reliable service for other Box users, Box.com will often reject excessive traffic like this from Box Drive, forcing Drive to slow down (i.e. rate limiting). It appears that most of the Drive popup notifications this user got were to tell the user of transient failures due to these rejections from Box.com.

As a test, can you try uninstalling these programs temporarily and see if the issue still persists? You may also want to reach out to Adobe to receive guidance on how to allow-list the necessary Box Drive folders in their programs so they aren't continually scanned:

• 
  

  C:\Users\username\AppData\Local\Box\Box

  
  


• 
  

  C:\Users\username\Box

  
  


• 
  

  C:\Program Files\Box\Box

  
  

I'm having the same issue, and I've been using Adobe Premiere lately. Maybe I'll stop using it for a few days and see if the issue goes away. Fingers crossed since the dinging is driving me bananas! 

Please let me know if that does the trick for you.

We are seeing this happen two on two different Macs and neither are running Adobe Premiere. Any idea what the cause/fix is?

Another here. Mimi M1, new install of latest Box updates...and now that damn "Unable to open folder" notices WILL NOT STOP.

WTF?

Hi Everyone, 

I'm so sorry to hear that you've encountered this issue with Box Drive.

To further look into this, can you please share you use cases to our support team by submitting your tickets here: https://support.box.com/hc/en-us/requests/new 

This might require some account specific information and you may need to submit your Box Drive logs for the team to investigate what could be causing this from your devices.

Thanks for your patience and please come back and let us know how it goes with support.

Best,

Hi France,

I have already opened a ticket with support back on 7/14/21 and have yet to hear back. Screenshots and logs were both submitted.

I am getting this every 2 seconds,  tried uninstalling reinstalling nothing works...HELP

We're seeing the same issue as well.

Having the same issue, its non stop. Anyone figure this out?

Hi there, we also have two users (on Macs) experiencing this issue.

Update from Box: We have discovered that Apple's Finder extension is making excess calls to Box file systems, and our engineers are working alongside Apple to uncover why this is now affecting multiple customers. While I do not have an ETA on a fix for this, I will hold onto this ticket and update with further information as soon as Apple has provided more updates. 

We are experiencing this on Windows 10 and the folders noted in the errors have not been accessed by the users although they are members of a group that has access to the folders.

Months later this is not resolved. Which is so frustrating to us all. Box, can you expedite support for us? Please?

Yes, this is a constant issue, at least while running Adobe After Effects.

Same issue. Following for the update alerts... 

I'm having the same issue with numerous others.  File transfer are extremely slow even though I have Google Fiber 2G. I'm having problems working on offline and online only files.  The file transfer is so incredibly slow the my computer basically stops being useful.
