Name Changes & Email Aliases- If you change your name at Tufts, thus prompting a change of your first.last@tufts.edu an administrator will need to update your account in Box in order to ensure the same permissions on the new email alias as the old email alias.
- If you try to share to a secondary alias, it will try to create a new box account, account sharing should always go to first.last@tufts.edu, or the primary smtp alias for the user.
Personal Accounts- Personal accounts created with a users first.last@tufts.edu need to be administratively moved by Box.com staff in order to take advantage of the Enterprise licensing.
Box Sync- Some reports of the sync application for iPad not being able to open certain word docs - investigating.
- Box Sync v4 for Windows requires .NET 3.5 and either .NET 4 or NET4.5 installed. For Windows 8, .NET 4.5 comes enabled off the box, but .NET 3.5 needs to be enabled on before the installation. To install .NET 3.5 on Windows 8 and 8.1, please reference this article<!-- /* Style Definitions */ table.MsoNormalTable {mso-style-name:"Table Normal"; mso-tstyle-rowband-size:0; mso-tstyle-colband-size:0; mso-style-noshow:yes; mso-style-priority:99; mso-style-parent:""; mso-padding-alt:0in 5.4pt 0in 5.4pt; mso-para-margin:0in; mso-para-margin-bottom:.0001pt; mso-pagination:widow-orphan; font-size:10.0pt; font-family:"Times New Roman","serif";http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/hh506443%28v=vs.110%29.aspx
Box Search
- Box search currently only supports Full text-search to the first 10000 characters of a document for performance reasons. Are the evaluation reports very long?
- While file types pdf and csv are supported, xls is not listed as supported, but xlsd is.
File Timestamps (All Box clients Mobile, Sync, Website)- File timestamps (create/modify dates) are not retained when a file is uploaded to Box. They are instead replaced with the date the file was uploaded (create date) or theretofore altered (update date).
- Box has open incidents for this functionality gap and is looking into a solution for this known deficiency.
