I made my folders online-only, but they still appear downloaded on my computer.
Hi!
I have selected to folders to be only online.
But when checking the files again I still that they are still downloaded to my computer in the dropbox folder.
How can I change this?
Hi!
I know that the folders will continue to be in finder in my MacBook although I made the files online only. But when I check storage of my computer the total free GB on my hardrive has not changed even though my Dropbox folder is several GB,s.
I do not have that menu alternative that you suggest. Last week I found what you are suggesting but on another place when logged into my dropbox account. But it did not help because the folders and files is still saved on my hard drive.

Dropbox StaffHey Christian! If you check the top right corner of your Mac computer, can you see a small Dropbox icon? If yes, I'd like to know the syncing status and app version you see.
Also, if you right-click on the Dropbox files in your Finder now, do you see any other Dropbox options or nothing shows at all?
