My Firewall was actually turned off. I turned on and added Dropbox. So far no changes in syncing.

      You can see the version of the Dropbox desktop application using these steps.

        Jay, There is no preferences when I click on the avatar. There is a preferences under settings but no "about dropbox" there. Also, I do not have a dropbox icon in the menu bar.
