Box Support for OS X Broken

5 pointsby mp3jeep01over 11 years ago
tl;dr -- Box does NOT support bundle files from OS X<p>Early this AM I was updating a document in Numbers on Mavericks and decided I better version control it, or at least back it up somewhere. Being a business doc, I uploaded it where I keep the rest of our business docs, into Box. Or so I thought. After speaking with support, it turns out Box does NOT support bundled files, which happens to me a large majority of the files coming out of OS X. This is upsetting, I really enjoyed using Box, and really thought it would work for <i>all</i> my files, unfortunately that doesn&#x27;t seem to be the case.

I gather this post regards <a href="http://box.com" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;box.com</a> which appears to be a DropBox clone. From their website:<p><pre><code> &quot;Simple, Secure Sharing from Anywhere Box offers secure, scalable content-sharing that both users and IT love and adopt.&quot;</code></pre>

The recommended solution from support was to zip my file first, then upload -- unfortunately this breaks my workflow.
