Patent number: 11023424Abstract: Disclosed are systems, methods, and non-transitory computer-readable storage media for migrating content items from a source user account to a target user account. A user can specify content items in the source user account to be migrated to an existing or new target user account. A new content entry including an account identifier of the target account and a pointer to the content item can be created for each migrated content item. Further, a determination can be made as to whether a sharing link to each content item exists, and if so, the content pointer of the old content entry is modified to forward or redirect to the new content entry. An active flag associated with the old content entry can be set to false or 0 to indicate that the old content entry is no longer active.Type: GrantFiled: March 17, 2015Date of Patent: June 1, 2021Assignee: Dropbox, Inc.Inventors: Chris Beckmann, Joshua Jenkins, Francois Alexander Allain, Jeffrey Bartelma

Patent number: 10803016Abstract: The speed at which files can be accessed from a remote location is increased by predicting the file access pattern based on a predictive model. The file access pattern describes the order in which blocks of data for a given file type are read by a given application. From aggregated data across many file accesses, one or more predictive models of access patterns can be built. A predictive model takes as input the application requesting the file access and the file type being requested, and outputs information describing an order of data blocks for transmitting the file to the requesting application. Accordingly, when a server receives a request for a file from an application, the server uses the predictive model to determine the order that the application is most likely to use the data blocks of the file. The data is then transmitted in that order to the client device.Type: GrantFiled: May 15, 2018Date of Patent: October 13, 2020Assignee: Dropbox, Inc.Inventors: Rian Hunter, Jeffrey Bartelma

Patent number: 10491653Abstract: Users specify that a file set comprising their files, folders, or other content owned by the users should be made accessible via a link, such as a uniform resource locator (URL). The system which stores and provides access to the files accordingly creates a link that specifies the file set to be made accessible. The users may distribute the link to recipients with whom the file set is to be shared, and the distribution may be performed in any manner that the users choose.Type: GrantFiled: December 17, 2018Date of Patent: November 26, 2019Assignee: Dropbox, Inc.Inventors: Arash Ferdowsi, Drew Houston, Jonathan Ying, Jeffrey Bartelma

Publication number: 20180189929Abstract: A user interface (e.g., a browser window) includes a display area for displaying an image (e.g., a book page image). The image can be rescaled based on the dimensions of the display area and other factors. In some implementations, margins in book page images are adjusted to create additional or less display area.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 28, 2018Publication date: July 5, 2018Inventors: Jeffrey Bartelma, Gopal Venu Vemula

A user can specify content items in the source user account to be migrated to an existing or new target user account.
