Yep, the OS X grids you can add to the dock allow this - although I'm pretty sure almost noone realises it. It's low priority, but I will definitely consider it for the future.

Ok, thanks. But where is the difference in the versions?
I have sometimes the same beachball problems. Or, that dropzone consumes a lot of CPU resources.
There shouldn't be any difference really. The Mac App Store version runs sandboxed and the non-App Store version runs unsandboxed but that really shouldn't make any difference. If you're having issues with hanging and such I recommend you look in Console.app (it's in /Applications/Utilities/Console.app) and do a search for Dropzone. Then email me any messages so I can investigate further. You can also try starting fresh with a new Dropzone 3 actions database by closing Dropzone, removing your ~/Library/Application Support/Dropzone 3 (or ~/Library/Containers/com.aptonic.Dropzone3/ for the Mac App Store version) folder and relaunching.
Usually, I find issues like this are caused by issues with your OS X install (other apps crashing, SIMBL or InputManager plugins) and other non-standard configurations.

Re: Drop Copy Functionality (1 replies, posted in Feature Requests)
I recommend you use the AirDrop action in Dropzone 3 for this.
Another option is to setup an SCP action that copies to your other Mac. I posted a step by step guide on how to do this here: https://aptonic.com/forum/topic/165/how … ropzone-3/

Re: Action for making a disk image (2 replies, posted in Feature Requests)
OK, noted. I will look at upgrading this action for Dropzone 3 shortly.
Just out of curiosity why do you prefer to create a disk image instead of zipping the files for example? I'm trying to understand the use case so I can make sure the updated action does what you need.

Re: Dropzone 3.2 Yosemite issues (9 replies, posted in Dropzone Support)
Yep, it's the same issue. The update that fixes this is currently pending review with Apple, but you can update now by downloading the non-Mac App Store version from https://aptonic.com/dropzone3/latest
It will detect you purchased on the Mac App Store and register and transfer your settings automatically.

Re: dropzone 3.2.1 on Yosemite (4 replies, posted in Dropzone Support)
Thanks - This is a bug under Yosemite with the FTP action that I have just fixed. Please download this beta:
http://shipsomecode.com/misc/Dropzone-3 … ild707.zip
Note that if you purchased on the Mac App Store and then download and run this beta version then it will detect you purchased on the Mac App Store already and register automatically. You can stay on this beta and you'll still receive auto-updates to future versions.
As far as the progress window goes, you can now see the upload progress in the status item during an upload. The floating window annoyed many users as it obscured windows and had issues in dual monitor configurations so is gone for good. I think the solution in Dropzone 3 is better, once you get used to it

Re: Add blanks/spaces to grid. (2 replies, posted in Feature Requests)
OK, thanks for the feedback. What I'm considering doing is adding a hidden default that adds a blank space action as an option to the add action popup menu in the top left. Most people probably won't use this feature and I'd rather not have it as a permanent item as it may cause some confusion, but for those who want it it does seem like a useful idea.
I will look at this for the next few versions, right now I'm still dealing with a lot of Yosemite related bugs.

Hi there. 3.2.1 is not the latest version. The latest is 3.2.2, build 700. This issue has been fixed in this build. Please note that 3.2.2 is currently not yet out on the Mac App Store (it will be released on the App Store soon after Apple review).
Please download version 3.2.2 from https://aptonic.com/dropzone3/latest

Re: Problems with FTP - Does not upload (2 replies, posted in Dropzone Support)
That's an odd one. Usually if the Test Connection succeeds I would expect uploading to succeed as well. Unfortunately troubleshooting this type of issue is usually a nightmare as there are so many different possible FTP server configurations.
Here are a few questions and points to consider:
1) Is this just a standard FTP server on port 21? FTP over SSL is not currently supported.
2) Are you using a proxy to connect to the internet?
3) Do you use firewall software such as LittleSnitch that could be blocking the connection?
4) Does your FTP server support FTP passive mode? Dropzone tries to connect with passive mode enabled.

Topic: Dropzone 3.2 Yosemite issues (9 replies, posted in Dropzone Support)
Update: The issues described below are now totally fixed. Just make sure you're running Dropzone version 3.2.3 or later and you should not have any issues under Yosemite. Also, make sure you're using the latest version of all the actions. You can check this by going into the Dropzone 3 Preferences and then the 'User Actions' tab and click the 'Check for Updates' button.
If you're having issues with Dropzone 3 under Yosemite and are using the version from the Mac App Store - Please download the non-Mac App Store version from https://aptonic.com/dropzone3/latest - this version is newer (version 3.2.2 instead of 3.2). The Mac App Store version will be updated soon.
Note that if you purchased on the Mac App Store and then download and run the non-Mac App Store version then it will detect you purchased on the Mac App Store already and register automatically (note you have to run the Mac App Store version at least once for this transition to work).
The errors you will see in the debug console with the app store version (3.2) under Yosemite look like the following:

Re: No Circles in Dropzone 3? (1 replies, posted in Dropzone Support)
I've explained my thinking about this in detail on our blog here: https://aptonic.com/blog/dropzone-3-launched (in the Circles section)
I'm actually working on an alternative right now that lets you drag things to the top of the screen to open the grid. It makes the app a whole lot easier to use - I would say even better than Circles. Looking forward to releasing this update soon!

Re: Script to upload a file to FTP, wait and upload the next file (2 replies, posted in Dropzone Support)
Hi Alan,
I've made you a custom version of the FTP action that waits 8 minutes between uploads. If you need to change the delay, you can edit the ftp_custom.rb file inside the action bundle and change line 96. The trick was there's another library bundled with Dropzone that does the actual uploading so I've made you a custom version of this lib and bundled it along with the action.
You can download the action here: http://shipsomecode.com/misc/FTP%20Uplo … bundle.zip
Unzip it and double click the "FTP Upload With Delay.dzbundle" action bundle to add it to your grid.

Re: Google's "Search by Image" destination? (3 replies, posted in Feature Requests)
I liked this idea so much that I went ahead and built an action for Dropzone 3 that does it. You can install here:
https://aptonic.com/dropzone3/actions/i … e%20Search
It is compatible with both sandboxed (Mac App Store) and unsandboxed (non-Mac App Store) versions of Dropzone 3. It also supports dropping multiple images on it. After you drop an image, it uploads it to Google and then opens the results in your browser.
Hope you guys like it! Let me know if you have any questions or feedback .

Re: Imageshack with logins (5 replies, posted in Feature Requests)
This information is outdated - I have long since updated the ImageShack action to work with the new API.
You can install the updated action from https://aptonic.com/dropzone3/actions (click the Install link beside the ImageShack action). It enables you to upload individual or multiple images into ImageShack albums.
And yes ImageShack have gone to a paid model now, but you can sign up for a 15 day trial at https://imageshack.com/signup and then their plans start at $3.99 / month.
You can also use the Imgur action which ships with Dropzone 3 and is totally free. There’s complete instructions and a demo of this at http://imgur.com/gallery/eDf31

Double check you deleted it from your applications folder and also your downloads folder and try a reboot. The app store gets confused sometimes.
