    It seems to be back working again.  But only after I disconnected my IFTTT applet and then connected that same IFTTT applet again.

My Desktop version of dropbox is dropping out and losing the abilty to green ticks and or share files. This is seriously slowed my workflow and costing money.

The issue is not fixed on my workstation. Dropbox on my laptop seems to be working fine in that it can upload files, but still cannot get new files and updates from my workstation.

    Hey there funkusty & petera2; if you're still having issues with this, could you reboot your computers and let us know if syncing gets stuck again?

      Did a restart and a full shutdown. Dropbox sync is still stuck.

        Thanks for the quick follow up petera2; much appreciated!

        If it's stuck at the exact same number of files for an unusually large amount of time (this could depend on the size of your Dropbox folder), can you try fixing your hardlinks and permissions as outlined here?

        Keep us in the loop!
